I have my ears and belly button done. That didn't hurt, healed with no problems-I have a bar, b/c I was advised that a hoop will take longer to heal, and can catch on your clothes (yucky thought). I really, really want to get a small silver stud in my nose, but my family and Hunny are really having problems with that idea. My mom told me that I couldn't come over anymore if I did it...I'd hate to miss out on free dinners!!
And, I'm trying hard to convince myself that it won't hurt that bad, b/c it's just cartilage, and I've had that pierced before(cartilage, that is), and that wasn't so bad...trying hard....
