that's kinda how i feel about my navel piercing. i got it done so long ago and i dont even think about it anymore. ive had the same curved bar with pink cubic zirconia on each end of it in for the longest time.
what i can't stand is when chicks sport a tiny tank top or shirt that shows off their belly and they've got some gaudy dangly belly ring that hangs down below their waistline.
i want my nose pierced, but i'm too scared to get it done.

Well, people can think whatver they want to think. I don't do/not do stuff because people will have a certain opinion of it...I don't really give two shits. Living life based on what other people are going to think is not really living.

Yeah I feel you there. I don't show off much of my body...in fact I feel really exposed/vulnerable when I show my stomach. I've had my belly button ring for so long (same bar too, heh) that it looks weird to me without it.
I think Britney Spears style belly rings are gaudy/tacky/trashy as hell.
I got my nose pierced with a gun...so I have no advice for you there! But I still say go for it. I think nose piercings are the one thing that look good on everybody (if they're wearing the right jewelery).

Oh no no don't be. It hurts waaaaaaaay less than your ears, yes ears. I got it done by needle, and they stick a little metal tube up your nose so the needle doesn't slip all the way through. It's quick, and stings for about 10 seconds and mine bled for about a minute. ( Sometimes it doesn't bleed.) As long as you wash it with sea salt and warm water twice a day, it wont get infected. It looks nice if you have a nice small nose and have a cute little stud in after you change it. What I got ( and most people do ) is a stud to get pierced with. It's spirally inside your nose and kinda big, but it doesn't bother you.
But yes, point is that it DOES NOT hurt and don't be scared. I was scared and laughed at myself afterwards because it didn't hurt AT ALL and I cry at the littles bit of pain.

Totally "dawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww". And that's the perfect nose stud, imo. I really have yet to see a person that it doesn't look good on.
LOL @ the direction this thread has taken, too!

yeah it's been so long since i've gone in for a tat/piercing, and i'm starting to get that itch again. i think once spring rolls around i'm gonna either get my nose pierced or have an addition done to my back tattoo. we'll see!
Tricia - it's not so much the pain i'm afraid of. that i can handle. but i have a HUGE fear of needles and i'm afraid i'll pass out if i watch them stick a needle thru my nose. getting my navel pierced was fine since i was able to lay back and stare at the ceiling, plus i knew the guy that did it so i was less anxious... but when i got my ears pierced i passed out!
Walker - i think i've told you this before, but i'd like to reiterate... your girl is a hottie.

Oh true, Myra.
Well the girl told me to look away, because I told them I was scared of needles. It was so quick that I barely had time to really panic. I breathe in and before I could exhale it was done. If you've gotten tattoos then this is a walk in the park.

not the whole back. just lower back. i know, totally trendy area. i was 18.
i don't have any pics but i'll try to get one later. it's freakin' hard aiming a camera at my butt!
edit // i do have a pic...
i want to add more detail and extend the design, maybe add a sweet looking heart design around what's already there. i dunno. i've been working on ideas for that for years and i haven't come up with anything good.

yeah now that i think about it, i was fine when i went to get my earholes stretched from normal (16 gauge i think?) to 14 gauge. that hurt like a bitch but i was cool. i usually just have to warn whoever is piercing me that i get lightheaded VERY easily and they've always been super accomadating as far as letting me sit down and chill somewhere and collect my braincells afterwards.
