Piercings

me neither!! i had it done as bet when i was 17 i think, mum went spare, it killed, esp when trousers got caught on the bar *wincing at pain*

I no longer have my belly button done, just ears pierced now. I wished when i was younger i had my tongue done but i am too much of a wimp now!!

I have two in each earlobe, but I think the top ones might have closed. I always wanted the top bit done, but I had my ears pinned back as a kid, so I had too much scar tissue there.

I had my belly button done when I was 16 but took it out about 3 years ago. I kept putting a bar in every few months, just to make sure it didn't close up. Just after Christmas, I decided to put it back in and did for about 2 weeks. One day, it was feeling a bit sore, so took it out. The next day, it was all infected and the site of both holes was swollen and red! It was pretty minging for a few days, but it eventually healed over, although I think it has scarred over the holes!

I also had my tragus pierced when I was in uni but my mum made me take it out!

Just thinking about it when it actually pierced through makes me feel all squeamish. I went back to my dance class straight after (what an idiot) and it started bleeding really badly.

I have to keep it in as I have an outie ? although the size of my belly now it would be an achievement if I could actually see my belly button ?

I have 4 holes in each ear, did have all up my ear pierced, but let them close. 8mm flesh tunnels in each lobe. Got my labret pierced, did have my lip done but took it out when I had my eldest.

Had both eyebrows done, and my nose done 6 times over the years.

You are brave ER! Will the flesh tunnels ever shrink back if you take them out?

I'd rather have the pain of a tattoo than a piercing.

In my youth i have had..

My belly button

3 piercings in each ear

My nose

I would of had tons more when i went through my moshy stage but i was in a respectable admin job and would have been frowned upon ?

Still have one in each ear and my nose.

My brother had massive tunnels and took them out about 3 years ago for the army. They have shrunk alot but still a good 4mm id say.

I always wanted my nose done but I wasn't allowed (although I don't know why this stopped me!). I think a little diamond stud can look really pretty.

I currently only have my ears pierced once, I used to have three holes in each ear but the others have closed over.

I had my nipple pierced when I was 18 - kept it in until I was 26 when I had to take it out for work.

They shrink a bit, but never go back "to normal".

If I have to be all "prim and proper" like when I worked with the public, I wear flesh coloured plugs. They weird me out though, i'm not used to having "whole" earlobes ?

ATB..im interested to know what profession said 'sorry, no nipples piercings here!!' were you an exitic dancer or summat?!

I have my ears pierced twice in each ear. I did have a bar at the top of my ear, but i took that out as i'd had the same bar that was used when i got it done in for nearly 4 years.

Would get the top of my ear done again. Waste of money...although it killed 4 hours between lectures one Friday!

I had my ears pierced when I was 3... nose at 16 and naval at 17... still have them all!

Haha, no it was a lingerie company I worked for, they didn't specify I wasn't allowed it, just a personal choice as I didn't want the fitters to see it as it would be visible through some bras!

did you have to walk around in your undies ?

Didn't have to walk around in my undies but had to get the bad boys out most days!

?

They are cracking!!! Lots of nice free underwear though....

I'm pretty boring and just got 2 in my ears although I never use the 2nd piercing any more and only use the 1st when it's a special occasion. Also got my belly button done, never change the bar though and forget it's there. Wouldn't have any more.

Ears at 3,

second hole in my ears at 10(did them my self) now healed up

3 higher up in my right ear again done by myself at 14,

belly and nose at 14 (friend did them)

eyebrow and tongue at 16

hood pierced at 18

Only have nose, belly and ears left now.

First ears at about 7, second lot 16 and then had my belly bar done on A level results day! All still present.

Both lobes, have a ring through the top of one ear and a ring through my lip, which I have to take out for work in case it weirds the clients out.

Me too! ?

Ears x 8 in each, Nose & Naval.

Only Naval and 1 in each ear now though.

Naval didn't hurt, but my god the nose piercing killed - I didn't realise they would use the same kind of gun as they do the ears, rather than a needle. Makes my eyes water thinking about it!

Ouch.

I'd never get a piercing done with a gun, even my ears.

No wonder it hurt you so much.

I've got two in both ears, I should really let the second ones close up as I hardly ever use them.

I had my upper ear done in Australia but it got infected so took it out.

I would be tempted to get my nipple or nether-regions done but it's never been a top priority. Maybe one day, if the opportunity arises!

I have had:

both ear lobes x 3

top of the ear x 1

nose x 3

lip x 1

tongue x 1

belly button x 1

both nips x 2

I have taken them all out and now can only get earrings through 4 of the holes in my ears.

I used to be able to squirt liquid out of my lip piercing which, at 18 years old, was the most hilarious thing ever.

I've now only got earlobes which I use (I used to have them done twice, but haven't used the 2nd hole for many many years so I imagine its closed up by now). Also they used to be stretched to 8mm, but they've shrunk back down over the last 3 years or so to pretty much normal size which is good, although can sag a bit if I wear particularly heavy earrings.

Also used to have my centre lip and septum pierced, which I took out about 4 years ago when I got an office job and couldnt be bothered to keep taking them out and putting them back every day. I wouldn't have them done again now, but if I were to live my life again then I would! No regrets with these ones. Also had navel done when I was 14 - Regret that one. Only lasted about 2 years as it was pierced too thinly and started growing out.

I've had:

- ears twice and the top of my ear (no longer have top of ear)

- Tongue (took it out this year as ihad it for 10 years and was starting to make a weird grove in my tongue)

- belly button (done twice, never again)

- Down below when i was 20 took it out wen i was 22 which was sorer than getting it done as i tried to use pliers [:'(] ended up going into a peicing shop and asking then to remove it!

I have 13 piercings altogether. Most of them in my right ear, including a rook, tragus and an orbital lobe piercing which is my favourite! I also have 2 of my lobes stretched but they're only little. Also have my tongue, nose and belly button done. I would love to have more done, but I'm a bit of a wuss with the healing process, as my body seems to take ages to heal. I just don't feel as though I have the patience for it any more! But I still get the infamous 'itch' for a new one every now and again, so never say never!

I've currently got 3 in one ear, one in the other, and my naval. I did have my lip pierced but it didn't last long as I was living at home at the time and my mum cried every time she saw me. I always used to want a row of piercings down my forearm, but I did a lot of trampolining and they would have caught in the webbing of the trampoline bed, and getting them in and out would have been a pain. I've grown out of wanting them now, inch is probably a good thing as H wouldn't be a fan.

*Wincing at hood piercings*

I have had: Ears, Top of ear, nose, lip and tongue. Oh, and nail.. Does that count?!

Only have my tongue and ears in 'use' now.
