Nice thread...but blast from the past? Haha...all the crazy things I do is NOW. I currently have 7 piercings (once had 13 but some had to come out & well there will be more in my future) and 7 crappy tattoos (which will be fixed ASAP now that I am getting a bit extra income,I am saving to have everything fixed).And as for hair dye,my hair has been every color of the rainbow and then some and currently it is bright red/orange and pink. And I am 26 yrs old. I can post pics later if anyone is interested.
I was "normal" in my younger days.
Trust me.
The guns cannot be cleaned/sterilized properly and touch hundreds and hundreds of people...not good! And yes,there is a good chance of a gun shattering cartlidge.
If you go for ANY piercing,even if it is just ears...seek out a REPUTABLE and clean piercer and piercing shop. There are only TWO guys in St. Johns that I trust.

The "little flap" is called the tragus. Some people can't get it pierced and I was one of them. Mine is too small,so the piercer couldn't do mine...but I ended up getting the anti-tragus done...sadly it rejected 6 months later because the stupid ring kept getting caught in my hair and everything.The most extreme thing I've done to my hair is get highlights, LOL! I have my ears pierced twice, but I can't legally get a tattoo yet, I guess you have to be 18 to get one now.
I want my ear cartalidge pierced though, and that weird little flap thing on the inside of your ear that I don't know the name of.And maybe a tattoo or two.
AVOID GUNS and little shops in the mall.Oh, yup I was thinking of the piercing guns. I just got my ears pierced at a shop in the mall, and that's how they did it.
If I get my cartilage pierced for my birthday, I'll see if I can convince my mom to go to a real piercing/tattoo parlor. She is a little freaked out by those places though, LOL!
Wouldn't the needle hurt more though? I'm just thinking... They would have to pierce you with it, take the needle back out, and then put the earring in. Ouch! With the gun, it's so quick!
(Sorry, I've kinda hijacked this thread!)
