I can see people who have face piercing, tongue piercing, and other piercing on different parts of the body. do you have one? Me, only regular piercing in my ears which i can put earings. Because i cant imagine my face has lots of different piercing, but some are having fun with it. I'm scared with that..how about you? thanks in replying..

The only piercing I got is on my ears. I am not sure how it felt to be pierce in other body parts. I am not interested to have some in other parts though I find it cool for other people that have some.

I only have my ears pierced . I have them pierced twice in each ear . I did consider get my eye brow pierced this summer but ended up getting a tattoo instead . I don't have a problem with people who get a lot of piercings as we all have a difference of what we think looks right for us . Many children are getting piercings every where and for them it is their style , I don't see anything wrong with this but my husband does so they are only allowed to get their ears pierced . I have told them when they are older if they are still interested then , then they can do it at that time .

I like you only have my ears pierced. I am to big of a chicken to even go about having any other part of my body pierced. I can't imagine having holes in my tongue or anywhere else. I am not one for much pain so don't think I could ever do that.

I wont lie :) Belly button i did have but i had to let it go when i was pregnant, that one didn't hurt to have done. My partner had his eyebrow done & said that one didn't hurt either! I had my nose pierced about 2 years ago & that one was bearable - it was a little painful but it's only a quick pain - once the stud was in there it was pretty ok! The piercing guy told me i'd cry when i had it done - i told him i'd try & avoid it but he said it was impossible since there are tear ducts there :) So whether it's painful for you or not still cry - LOL!

I am too old for that kind of stuff but I doubt that even when I was younger I would do that. Just getting my ears pierced was enough for me.

I think piercing being painful depends on where you're being pierced and ow sensitive that area is for you. It didn't bother me at all to get my ears pierced as many times as I did, but when I had my nose done it was extremely painful for me. I thought I was gonna pass out! My nose is very sensitive though so that kind of explained the whole pain thing there. I have a very high tolerance for pain, but that one was a doozy!LOL!

its not that im scared it is just that i would never do it because it looks disgusting to me I feel the same about tattoos i hate them also as i am a christian they are forbidden for me (Lev.19:28. "`Do not cut your bodies or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD. )

Nope, just 3 holes in each ear. No other peircings. A lot of places will not hire you with facial peircings.

i think for those people who had their body pierced for several times don't feel that much pain because their body got used with it. and ofcourse people does have reason why they would llike their body pierced, and whatever reason that may be i think that's the way they want to express thier self. me, would like to have my navel pierced but i dont think i can handle the pain so i just foprget about being pierced.

I had my nose pierced about 1.5 years ago. It wasn't painful at all. I also have two on each ear. I'm thinking of getting my belly button done. And if I do, that would be my last piercing. I can't imagine getting any more anywhere else!

I only have ears pierced but I'm glad. I'm a Grandma now and I really wouldn't want my grandkids asking me about piercing or tatoos. I'm happy the way I am in this department.

I have many friends that have done body piercing. i don't. because i was not attracted to it. so i have only an ear piercing. It all depends where you do the body piercing, i can tell you that in the ears and nose i does not hurt at all. at the belly and nipples it does, and on the tongue it depends. Would you give us more information on where you want your body to be pierced. But you will have to be ready for a bit of pain, why are you so scared, it only takes about a minute, and if you go to a professional he will do it even faster. You know you do not have to do it. but if you decide to do it anyway just know that the fear is only in your head, remove it. do a little meditation, calm down, and you will laugh after you have done it, i can assure you of that. I read a bit information about that subject and i can tell you that full healing in the parts of the head, takes eight to ten weeks, if you are thinking about nipple piercing the healing will take about four to twelve months, and genital piercing healing will take about ten to twelve weeks. I hope i helped a bit.

when i got pierced in my ears the second time it was little painful but i did it by a doctor who gave me pain killer after piercing and tablets to take for 2 times.I am really crazy to get pierced in my ears one more time so that i can wear a small ring i it.Now iam wearing a long ring and a single stone studded stead in my ears. I think its not much painful but we have to get it done through experianced people or doctors as i have heard people say they were in extreme pain when pierced from people just sitting outside the jewellery shops who are totally inexperianced.

I have my ears pierced, that's it. Never plan on having anything else pierced either.
