That's how my parents were, when i was getting my ears done. Mom pierced my ears as a baby, gave me my second hole for my 14th birthday, i pierced them again when i was 17 (took them 3 months to notice) and then my cartilage when i was 18, and the didn't know about that for a while, got my nose done in first year university and they didn't realize it till reading week, even through christmas holidays.

As for places to get it done, if you're lookin to stay around your area, I don't know, but if you're ever in Guelph and feel the hankerin to get something done, head to Stigmata downtown. I got my nose done there and it's the most professional place I've ever been to. They do tattoos as well - I'm going to get mine there when I graduate.

you're totally right, Dave! I've only known straight guys to do it too. Strange, no?

My friend Mike from back home had his done on the upper and lower parts of his belly button. Looked really strange, but he's like, "I wanna be different." Then 3 of the girls I know got it done like that too!

I am having some major sadness....

A while back i had to take out my nose ring in order to get some dental x-rays done...

i couldn't get the ball back into place and the ring kept sliding around and falling out so i just got frustrated and took it out...

i was just looking at some pictures of me and my friends and the nose ring was in... now i'm TOTALLY BUMMED OUT and want it back!

do you guys know the deal with re-piercing?
i know a lot of ppl have problems with piercing scar tissue... but have any of you gotten anything re-pierced? how did it heal? any probs?

thanks a lot!

Nikki

When I was 7 I got my ears re-done and it went fine. I had to take my eyebrow ring out when I was on a soccer team last year and it closed, had to get that re-done as well, it felt normal just like the first time. I think they actually pierced it a smidge to the right of where it was previously done. I suppose nose is different?
I hope all goes well if you do decide to get it done
