I have 3 piercings on on my ears. The bottom of the lobe :p I plan to soon get my cartilage pierced 3 times as well. Both sides. Snake bites are cool (i thought about them) but they leave a bad scar. Gotta really want it.
I wouldn't do it on my own. Maybe print a picture of the piercing and look at it everyday. If u still like it once your 18, get it. If looking at it gets annoying, it will get annoying on your face as well.
Can also use that method when planing for tattoos.

Demonic Tacoo Anyone got or want any piercings? c: I have 3 piercings on my ears. I'm planning on getting Snake Bites and my nose pierced. Can't till I'm 18 though. (fregging parents) I might do them myself. Think I could? As a former emo. I understand the want to have piercings and tattoos. But I must stress, that piercings are a real sex item amongst a majority of males, and some females too, I would encourage you to wait until you're older, I would feel very sad if you got used as the object of someones sexual arousal and you meant nothing more then that to them. Also, if you dress a certain way, expect to be treated as the clique/stereotype associated with how you dress. Granted it shouldn't matter how you dress, but a majority of people do not care who you are or what you like or dislike, for most the way you dress and act says all they need to know, and will treat you as such. Another thing, don't get pierced because everyone else is doing it, it doesn't make you unique and/or special, you'll just look like a copycat. And that's giving into peer pressure, even if the friends around you aren't pushing you, if they're saying that only cool people get pierced, (which is stupid, my idiot brother got pierced, by a newb, and it got infected,) or they wont talk to you unless you do, it's still peer pressure. The girls in my town were peer pressured by their pregnant friends to get pregnant and lower their dating standards. Pathetic. But their parents were stupid too, always saying for their daughters to "grow up" Grown ups have sex and drink and smoke and vote and do stupid things all the time, like argue and stomp off and act like morons, not all, but a lot, always mad when a young kid corrects them. BTW, Jersey Shore is a BAD example of being a respected human being. Anyhow, bad parents say "grow up", good parents say "act your age" to their kids, which means yes, when your 15 you can act all highped up about the cutest guy and the school dances coming up and you can even talk about the reproductive system, and shopping, drama, but at the same time take responsibility with whatever age you are, like the blame game, that's only okay when your 2 yrs old, when your about 4 and up, you should admit to being wrong and starting the fight or whatever it was, because how would you feel getting blamed for something you didn't do. It's not fair and it's not right.
Get pierced and tattooed because YOU want to, and also not because your parents say not to, when your 18, you'll realize that somethings were only cool because you were NOT allowed to do them, and they loose they're perks.. Take note, when you get older tattoos tend to look rather ugly and the once normal looking pierced ears will saggy, be wise on what you do.
All that aside, please rethink getting them pierced yourself, it's very unsanitary and risky, there's a reason that they have stores such as piercing shops, tattoo parlours and that they smell like bleach.
If you are intent upon doing the piercings anyways, find a way to do it that is legal and is a sure 100% thing of not getting infected, so in other-words, make sure the one piercing has a licence to pierce and don't go alone.
Also, even if you do get pierced, your parents can force you to take them out.
(SINCE YOU MIGHT IGNORE ALL THAT RABBELING... yes, i know, i over do it, but there are some good words to listen to up there.)
BIG TIP!!! Try compromising, talk steady and calm with your parents about how you feel about getting pierced, Most call it blackmailing, I call it learning to live in the real world.
First before you even bring it up, do some really nice things, firstly if you have chores, do them, very tidy like.
Then clean other things, as long as you parents or other housemates don't mind.
Here's a List if you don't know where to start:
- HOMEWORK, MOST IMPORTANT (and a job if you have one, don't want to get fired)
-Do your normal chores
-Make your room clean, bed, window, desk, floor, laundry, pick up and put things away (if there are things outside your room, such as the back-pack you may have thrown on the couch, put it and other items away in your room, or wherever you ARE supposed to put it
-Clean the living room/CLR CLR- Windows- Clean with Windex and depending on if the frame is wood or whatnot, clean according, wood = wood polish, for example, (if you have none of the cleaning agents you need, politely ask your parents what you can use instead or if you and your parents can make a list and go shopping for them, when it's convenient for them, BE POLITE ABOUT ALL THIS, most people don't want to help someone who's rude and impatient) CLR- Couches and Chairs and Sofa's- remember to take the cushions off and vacuum underneath where they usually lay and in any cracks of the chair/couch/sofa/etc, if there's stains try to scrub them out, ASK PARENTS WHAT YOU CAN USE, depending on your furniture, you need certain cleaning products, and you have to act accordingly with whatever fabric. As such, with some furniture you can let it air dry, while others need to have the cleaning agents absorbed out of them. CLR- Vacuum and sweep and mop, depending on your floor type. CLR- You can tell me what else you have so I can tell you how to clean it
I think I'll be basic from now on, you can ask me to be more detailed later if you'd like.
-Dishes
-Laundry
-BathRoom/BR BR - Clean toilet BR - Clean Shower BR - Clean Sink BR - Sweep and Mop floor
- Clean Kitchen/CK CK - Microwave, and the plate that's usually in it, it can also be taken out for a better clean, if there's a gunk full of nasty things in your microwave the best thing to do would be to get a microwaveable cup of water, squeeze lemon juice into it and boil it in the microwave, i put mine on high 5 mins, you want all the things in the microwave to come of the sides easily. If you don't have lemons, just use the water and boil it high, after that's done getting the gunk out should be easier, if not, try scrubbing bubbles or a multi/all purpose cleaner. That should do it, spray it and wait till it sits in. CK - Clean out Refrigerator, ASK PARENTS WITH THIS, look for things out of date to throw away, but ask parents first. Some people keep bread 2 weeks after it's expiration date..... and no, I don't know why. CK - clean oven CK- clean counters CK - clean coffee pot (they do get gross) CK - Sweep and Mop
Clean anything else that comes to mind, and mostly CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF. If you'r not wearing a diaper and your older then 4 there's no reason for being a slob. And the ones that do make excuses aren't people to look up to and should be treated like children if they insist on acting like them. Only when your sick are you aloud to do be a bit lazy, and even then, you should show how much you don't want to be a burden and clean up after yourself. If you can anyhow. (Note; most the time when i say "you" i mean people in general)
After doing that; your chores plus some, ask your parents if there's anything you can do for them, help make dinner, massage their feet, back, and their hands too. Ask them that first, and then if they say yes, if your like me, tell them you'll only massage them if they take a shower and really clean those areas your going to massage, and to wear socks so their feet don't get dirt on them. And if you don't know what an appropriate time to massage is, get a stop watch or look at a clock and time yourself, 5 mins each foot and 5 mins each hand and 10 mins on their back. Use lotion too, not too much, it feels nasty if it's too much, and you don't have to do this all at one time, space it over hands one week, feet the next, and back after that week, and surprise them with a "whenever ticket" so if they have had a really long day on their feet they can pull that "ticket" out and use it. Also, if you have siblings, try to fight less, yes you can be fair, but don't be overly harsh. Most parents want their kids to act mature before they give them something, show them how mature you are.... i mean, how to act your age, show them that your accepting both sides of it, the fun and the responsibility's. Do this over the course of a full month, but keep in mind that even after all this, they may not let you have piercings, but parents test their kids alot, well the REAL ones, to see how well they're kids really are at taking on defeat and responsibility's.
Remember, do the homework, then the chores, and lastly massages. ASK THEM WHILE THEY ARE IN A GOOD MODE, BUT ONLY after a month of coaxing.
HOPE for the BEST. Be PREPARED for the WORST.
If they say no, say okay, don't push it, don't vent to them about all you did for it and for them, just take a deep breath and say no and walk away, but for a month and 2 or more weeks keep doing the chores and massages, parents do give in if they think your willing enough to get what you want by sacrificing things.
It seems hard, but if you really want to get those piercings, you gotta show it, prove to your parents what your willing to do to get it, put your risks down on the table, promise that you'll stay off the internet for a month, to wear more things they would prefer for half a year, that you will give up something that you really love, for two weeks, offer them more "free whenever massage tickets", you know your parents best, something that urks them that you do, stop doing it, something they wished you would do, start doing it.. Like I said, talk calmly, be nice, steady, have your thoughts in order, make sure they've had a good day too. that's important, and A KEY thing to also put in your brain, DON'T BEG, if you've asked for piercings constantly, it's like a stupid mosquito, you just want to kill it, pluck it's wings, dissect it and laugh as it dies. and then squash on it for extra measure that it's dead.
Parents were kids too, look up about how things were when they were in school, it's all about psychology, figure out their wants and needs, they're dreams and other things, and you've got it, you can practically get anything you want. those who say otherwise either didn't do it right or they were the ones getting played.
anyways, most of this is probably annoying now... so i'm going to leave you with a good luck and hope everything goes well.
