Piercings. Done in teens. No interest in tattoos. What others do does not bother me.

No tattoo, though. It's not for me.

got no piercings or tattoos.. lookin into getting a tattoo though, thinking of a japanese dragon that goes from my arm to my chest with freedom and stength in kanji somewhere in the design

the main trouble ive found is getting an artist whos work i like and who i think will do a good job, luckly however a freind who has amazing tattoos has suggested someone quite local to me

No tattoos, not too interested in them.

I have each of my earlobes pierced, left tragus (I'm going to get the right one done soon) and a vertical labret. I probably won't get anymore though.

I have a tattoo, I like original tattoos or tattoos with meanings behind them, but piercings kind of gross me out for some reason. I'm a strange one.

I won only one sitting so whatever they did they either had to complete it in one sitting or I would have to come back later and pay to have it finished. I couldnt afford to finish it and I didnt want a half completed tattoo so I sat through non-stop.
You're from Marietta too!!! I'm guessing you won a raffle at All or Nothing! I remember seeing that tattoo, It's a collaborative piece by Bond, and Vennekamp. I'm jealous, you have ink from two amazing artists. I never win the raffle's :[ I've always wanted to get work done by Vennekamp, but alas I am broke.

Anyways, I have close to a half sleeve on my right arm. I actually have ALOT more on that arm now, but this was the start to it (Sean Herman's work). I don't have any pictures of the whole thing :] It now reaches from the back of my shoulder to a few inches above my elbow.


I also have a neo-traditional anchor on my foot, and some more on my right leg.

I'm hopefully going to have more work done soon, so maybe i'll post it. :]

Piercings: I had my nose pierced for a while, but had to take it out for work, and it closed up. Other than that I only have 3 piercings on each ear lobe, and my cartilage pierced.

i got my ears pierced when i was about 6 months old, so nearly 20 years and they've never closed up even though i don't wear ear rings.

I got my belly button pierced when i was 14 and then a few weeks later i got my eye brow pierced.

When i was 16 i got my lip pierced and none of them have closed up.

I lost my lip bar when i was drunk so now i've left it out but it hasn't closed lol

*sigh* so i'm ugly now?

Tattoos & piercings are many things to many different people. To some, it could be a status symbol, to others it could be a statement about their life.

For me, It means that I am free. I have the right to do to my body, whatever I want. Other's may not have that freedom. It is no different, in my oppinion, from people who wear make-up, dye their hair, or wear clothes a certain way. People use their appearance as a means of expression every day. My way is just a little more permanent :P

It's also documents my life. I can tell you the mindset I was in when I got every tattoo that I have. For me my tattoos arent always about the symbolism behind the imagery (even though that does often play a part), it's more about where I was in my life when I got the tattoo. I don't really care if other people understand why I have tattoos, as long as I understand why. :]

every time I see one of those people with tons of ring piercings on their eyebrows, I have the sudden urge to run up to the them and hang a shower curtain from the many rings...

I wouldn't get either, but I don't care if others have them. I used to, but I don't now.

I have my nipple pierced. Had it for 9 years now. Have no intention of removing it.
Have had others over the years but have removed them.
I am thinking about getting some more, but I have to removed visible ones for sport.
Love tattoos, if ever I find something I like and an artist I trust at the same time I will be in there.

I hate 2 piercings in both my ears nd one eye brow piercing. I also have 3 tattoos on my arms. I love tattoos I think besides getting more in my ears, I'm done with piercings..I used to be terrified of getting a tattoo for fear of the pain and while it does hurt, it's not as bad as I thought it would be and it helps ease my racing mind during and a while after the process. I had always wanted a tattoo though. I dislike the first one I got and am gonna get it covered, but otherwise I love my tattoos and I find they can be very beautiful and artistic
