Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ah. I don't like peircings of any kind. I never understood the need to poke holes in your body with hot metal and then stick metal objects in the wound.

and here we see the thing that separates humans from the rest of the animals: the ability to accessorize.

Good luck with your piercing and may it be a pleasant experience. I personally have 14 piercings and 6 tattoos. So if you need any advice with the after care, just let me know.

Do you touch your piercing a lot? That can lead to multiple infections because our hands aren't always the cleanest. Wash it at least three times a day with antibacterial soap and then apply a medicated goo like neosporin. If you have a ring, move it through the hole when washing and applying the goo so it gets in the hole. Always remember to wash your hands before and after touching the piercing.

Medusas can be very painful. Remember, piercing/tattoo pain is always directly related to your pain tolerance. My labret piercing didn't hurt all that much, until I started chewing on the back of the stud. BIG MISTAKE! Not only did it get six kinds of infected, it also stretched the hole.

I suppose piercing is okay, but i cannot stand tatooes. All my friends want one (the girls, anyway), and it kind of makes me worried. sad

I would never be able to get my belly button pierced.
I'd be too embarrassed, and would never show it off. redface
