that's my next piercing.

go for it!

i think my next is my rook on my right ear, then i'll eventually do the same with my left ear .. i'm scared about the rook though, that ones gonna hurt i think .. and eventually I want my lip repierced for the 3rd time

my rook didn't hurt too much. i actually didn't even know the guy was piercing it. i thought he was still putting the clamp on. my rook hurts now though. it's a little infected and it's growing out.

why is it growing out? that's strange .. normally only surface piercings and eyebrow piercings grow out cuz the skin is sorta pushing it out .. but with the rook there's nothing to push out?

i'm going to the piercer's tomorrow cuz my friend wants to get her belly ring looked at and i want to get my nose looked at .. it will be hard walking out without a new hole

i don't know. it is just growing out, i guess. i remember it being pierced further back before, and now it seems to be more forward. and there seems to be a small scar where i think it used to be pierced.

all right, well, DO NOT try to change it yourself! Because exactly what you said happened to me. I got the original screw out fine, then could not get the new one in, then I panicked because the old one wouldn't go back in. Finally I got the old one back in and the next day I went to my piercer and had him put the new one in for me. He had to rebend it, so maybe that was why I couldn't get it in.

i did it!!!!!!! *points at shiny new nose piercing* wow i love it, its so cute!!! and it went so fast :O literally 10 secs from the time he picked up the needle, and it didnt hurt in the slightest, my eye didnt even water....in fact, i had no idea it was done! i asked my friend if there was needle stickin outta my nose and she said nope its done and i said :O so yeah! i love it! eeeeeee

awesome. Make sure you have Q tips handy at all times, they really come in handy for nose piercings (both for cleaning and for picking out boogers)!

woo, got my 11th piercing .. my rook has been stabbed

my friend got the back of her neck pierced. i can't remember what it's called, but ouch.

Joey wrote:people say tragus piercings bleed .. mine didn't at all, not even one drop ..

I really want to get that done. Did it hurt like a bitch?

my tragus didn't hurt at all .. i didn't even feel the needle go through actually .. there's no crunching noise like a lot of people say either .. it's a pretty easy piercing and within 2-3 nights you'll be able to sleep on that ear again.

Thanks
How much did it cost you?

Um tragus was $40, rook was $45 and that includes the jewellery.
I can't remember what I paid .. I get discounts, plus I usually tip like $10 at least but that's how much it is where I go.

Thanks again, Joey .

I want to get a rook or a Daith

my rook piercing healed very fast surprisingly but it did hurt .. not a hurt you can't stand but it takes a bit longer to get the piercing in so it's kind of an "ow get the fuck away from me" feeling .. my friend said I didn't flinch but it was hard not to squirm

did your rook bleed? mine did. a lot. there was blood all over my ear.

yep it bled .. not much .. he just dabbed it with a q tip twice and that was it .. it was a bit crusty for a couple days after that too but it's all good now
