    Do you have any peircings, tattoos or anything of the sort? Have you modified your body in any way (this can mean a peircing, tattoo all the way up to some kind of surgery.)
    What do you have?

    I have 3 earrings in each ear and I just got my belly button peirced. It's pretty. I'm planning to get a tattoo(s) soon. I plan to get a celtic cross on the small of my back first and then get more if I want to. ^^;;

    Tell all!

    1. Unnecessary pain when getting it pierced, tatooed etc

    2. It's expensive

    3. Usually ridiculous, e.g getting your tongue pierced, I just can't see how one is going to live with that :confused:

    4. In my honest opinion, too many of them is plain repulsive. Ear rings are ok though. Anything else is a 'NO'

    Don't have any though it'd be nice to. Always though about getting my eyebrow pierced, and maybe getting a tattoo like my brother has (a black sun on his arm).

    Actually, I find that piercings don't hurt at all. When I got my belly pierced, I thought it was gonna hurt like a *****! But when the needle went through, I didn't feel much. The only problem is, they swell the next day and that hurts.

    ~~~~~~~~
    True, Shen, body modification is expensive, but in a sense well worth it. As long as they wash their hands, put on gloves, use a clean needle and work in a very sterile place, I consider the piercing well worth the money.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~
    Some peircings are ridiculous, yes. I don't plan to go over the top. To each their own.

    ~~~~~~~~~
    I don't think belly rings are repulsive. I think a big nose piercing is repulsive. There is a very fine line between beautiful and strange, and just plain gross.

    i would want some earings and a few tatoos(not too big). But that will be in like 4 years, so, i've got a while to go. i think that tongue/lip rings are really unattractive and annoying.

    -------------------------------------------------
    Still doesn't convince me (never will muwahahaha), I'm better off getting a mp3 player. Well as long as you're happy, then be it
    -------------------------------------------------
    Well I'm glad you know your limits. Don't be a fool, stay cool ;)
    -------------------------------------------------
    I guess belly piercing isn't too bad.

    I have a piercing in my left ear. It really didn't hurt as much as it sounds.

    I'm not a fan of "modifications" just because it's one of those "if-you-were-meant-to-have-it-you'd-be-born-that-way" sort of things. But that's my opinion, and I'm not here to sway anyone otherwise. It's your body, so you do what you will.

    The biggest thing about such modifications is that they're pretty much permanent. If you rashly tatoo your currently favorite band on your arm, if you happen to end up disliking them down the road, too bad. If you mess up your plastic surgery, you can try again and again until you look like Skeletor, but it's possible you may never get back to where you were before. You pierce your tongue, and it's likely to do something to way things taste (actually, someone from the tongue crowd prove/disprove this - I'm curious).

    In other words, I'm not about ready to turn my skin into a canvas or a pegboard anytime soon.

    I never heard of anyone calling it "modifications" but I do want piercings!!!
    I want my ears pierced (but too sensitive so no-go
    I want my lower lip pierced (momma would kill me)
    I want my eyebrow pierced (they'd kill me)
    I want a nose ring too!! (damn...can't have that either)
    I want to be pierced up but I'm too afraid of the pain and when I move out the house then maybe I'll consider it. But I AM getting a tattoo for my 18th birthday!! Small angel wings on my shoulder blades!! (maybe I wont pass out from the pain j/k)

    I've never wanted any piercings of any kind, but I've always wanted tattoos.
    I'm forever coming up with tattoo ideas and skectchs. But I've never gotten one done. If there's a little bit of doubt I won't get it done. I don't want something I'll regret.
    One of these days I'll come up with something I like.
    Large tattoo's too. I hate small ones.

    i am getting a earing pretty soon, it's just going to be a plain ring, nothing gawky.

    i will probably not get a tattoo but if i do it will probably a design or something, not a picture.

    A WHAT THROUGH YOUR WHAT!?!?

    Er... what's a conch? I sure hope you didn't mean Crotch.
    I personally want to get some more rings in my upper ears, near the cartilege(sp?). I have to wait a year before I can legally go by myself. Until them I need mum's permission. GRRR. I wonder what it would be like to get your nipples pierced...I've thought about doing that...:shy3:
    My belly button was painless, I wonder if nipples are painless. :sweat2:

    If I'm not wrong, the conch is the part of your ear inside... you know, the hardish boney part? I'm not sure though... but if I'm right... that sounds crazy painful... I cringed when I read the post >< 2.4... do you mean milimeters or am I off?

    I only have my earlobes done... not planning on much more either :p
