I would advise getting it done at a shop as well. When I got my bridge pierced my mom got her nose pierced, only took a few seconds and done. No problems and hardly even notice she has it pierced

If one does get a tattoo while young, try to stick to areas that will not collect fat, breasts, stomach, bum, etc. I know way too many people who got tattooed, then got kind of fat, or PREGNANT, that kind of thing, and now the tattoos are all stretched out and droopy, even after they've lost the weight. As far as piercing at home, I think ears are about as independent as you want to go. Everything I've pierced my self, other than ears, has gotten horribly infected. It shouldn't cost too much at a good shop either, but if you're as young as I think, you'll have to get your mom/dad to take you. Good luck!

Definitely go to a professional if you choose to get it done.

I am still debating one...two years later. I am one that mulls over body modifications for a long time. When I am positive that I want it and can't stop thinking about it or thinking of a reason that I shouldn't, I get one.

So far, I only have had eight various ear piercings, mostly "normal" except a tragus and three helix. My next one will be a daith on the opposite ear that I have my tragus.

I, as a 28 year old married mom of 3, still have all the piercings, upstairs and downstairs, that i had at 16... so make your choices wisely, they might be around a while!

is it possible to become addicted to piercings? i do my ears all the time and i never keep them..idk why.
for my birthday im hoping to get my mom/dad to take me to this real cool tattoo shop that i've got my belly button done at so i can get my industrial done (its a ear thing) :3
as for the tats: i do plan on having at least one little monster running about ^_^ no more then that. if i end up with a girl i'll cry.

i couldnt get one on my belly anyway >.< i want a chest tat thats above the breasts, and right under the collar bone
the one i want on my wrist will probly be the first one i get. idk which to get tho. i already know what y'all are gonna say too. LOL im still debating on a star, heart, or a pentagram. (i love pentagrams)
and i want a HelloKitty "trampstamp"
if anything, i want to go to Japan and get a traditional Japanese tat there :3
idk why but i love tattoos and piercings..LOL

I say: " Go for it ". I'm just a crazy old coot and I have a piercing. When my son was a teenager, he wanted an ear pierced, the wife said no so when we were all at the Mall, me and the son went off on our own to the piercing kiosk and both of us got our left ear pierced, (me first). I still have a gold hoop in my ear many years later-----I took a lot of gruff for it----but so what. (you should of seen the look on the Missus when we both showed back up with earrings.)
