Piercings & Tattoos

[Nezu]

I just love the pain! But yea as you get older well at least for me I did get more conservative but then there will phases where all I dig are tats and piercings.

[iloovedoggies]

i like piercings as long as there aren't too many
if a person has over 5 piercings on one ear, i think thats too much
i also don't like eyebrow, lip or cheek piercings
nose, earlobes and cartilage is fine
and ive seen pictures of corset piercings and i think they LOOK cool, but i would never get one XD

i personally have 3 piercings: one on left ear, two right ear (all 3 are earlobes :O)



and for tattoos, i think ankle and neck tattoos are pretty cool but only if its a small one. i don't like it when there are too many

just thinking of how those can get snagged on ones clothing causes me to

I'm not a fan of piercings or tattoos myself but don't let that stop ya from doing whatever. I just find the body more attractive without any distractions. People with several piercings just make me wonder if they'd look like an ornament if I started sending electricity through them.

If I had to choose between overly excessive tattoos or overly excessive piercings, I would pick tattoos. At least they are as stated, artistic. Still, I find tattoos should be placed on your body for a sentimental reason. If you're going to engrave something onto your skin it better have a good meaning. When people get tattoos just for the sake of having them, I find it outrageous and silly. More annoying are the people who make up a purpose for having a tattoo.

Plain > Tattoos > Piercings. (Earrings don't count.)

I don't have any Piercings nor Tattoos.

Piercings are fine on a girl, if it's just one on each side of their ears. (ya know, Earrings)
For Guys um... Usually, they shouldn't, but i think only the left ear, because i hear people say guys having piercings on their right ear makes them look GAY

Onto the Tattoos: NO! NEVER! Sure they may look cool, but ink on your skin gah >-<

Too much of either of the options makes a person look FUGLY.
Tho i am legal enough for both options; i'll never do it ._.; PAIN....

Not to mention of removing tattoos, you like getting scars after it gets removed? Not me :/

If i want tattoos, i'll get them FAKE so it's easy to wash off with soap and water; the same goes for earrings... FAKE ones

[STORMYskye]

Now that i think about it, tattoos aren't that great. I don't want to deal with it when i am older. AND it sucks to not be able to donate blood if you have tattoos. So i prefer piercings to tattoos.

I don't get why people like to go overboard on their piercings and tattoos. I know it's a form of art, but sometimes it's just TOO much. LOL.

Tattoos are a definite no. I will never, ever get one. They are disgusting.

Piercings are okay, as long as they aren't over the top. I don't mind ear piercings, I don't mind nose piercings, tongue piercings are pushing it. In a Leadership thing, I met a girl once who had pretty much both of her ears pierced, her tongue pierced, nose pierced, her lip pierced, a monroe, and she had her initials pierced into her neck. I was disturbed.

[Krooow]

Piercings are okay for me as long as it's not that many.

As for tattoos, I'll never get one D:

That's how mine closed up and when I tried to put it back in the piercing wasn't sterilized enough (my fault) so I made it worse and had to get steroids shot in it because of intense irritation. It's funny when I think back on it but back then I wasted money on a piercing that closed up. So yeah...

I took steroids!

ears aren't supposed to be numbed when pierced o_O

well, i have two 4g (5mm) lobes and i plan on stretching them to 5/8" or bigger depending on when i get there.

i wouldn't mind a tattoo but i haven't really thought of anything meaningful, so i don't think i'll get one. i may also get a tragus and vertical labret done.

My fiancee is thinking about going up to 5/8", we're just looking for what he wants though. :3

This, right here. Very important, especially if you have a good blood type. I'm O- so I'll never get a bloodtype, I'm the universal blood donor, I can give to anyone in my family.

Kinda sucks since I really want a tattoo, but it's not that big a deal.

People go over the top with piercings these days and it's disgusting. You're not 'being individual' by getting everything on your face pierced, you're being desperate for attention. It looks nasty, is bad for you career-wise, and has no actual benefits at all. A normal ear piercing, sure why not. Maybe even a second hole on each ear, but when you have 5 earrings per ear, eyebrow piercings, lip piercings, monroe piercings, nose rings, and belly button rings, there's a problem.

[flaris]

if one chooses to pierce anything for whatever reason, it's their own body. how can you differentiate a lip piercing being gross as opposed to an earring? both poke a hole through your body, i don't see why one would be gross and one wouldn't. career-wise, obviously heavily modded people take that into fact. you'd be surprised how many white-collars are heavily modified beneath the surface. it's not for one to judge another person about how they want to look.

IMO nothing is wrong with tattoos/piercing.. coz for me it increases your self-esteem. So yeah. But I am not fond of piercing though.. Pierce on both of the ears is enough for me.. Tattoo wise -> 1 is enough. Lol

Health wise... No to both.. Coz of the infection if you're careless about taking care of your pierce.. and The tattoos ink? Yeah..

[Dani]

Personally I don't really mind them. Some piercings tend to really creep me out though (mainly the ogod so huge earlobes thing going on).

[Byuu]

I got 5 ear peircings, and one eyebrow peircings. I might get a forearm tattoo of somthing but I dunno what yet :x
