Needles through the face

...and wherever else you can poke them!
All about piercings!

I've been talking about doing this post for quite a while, so, here it is!
I suppose I should throw in a quick disclaimer: I am by no means a professional piercing or have professional knowledge. I will simply be talking about my experiences and the pieces of advice I've been given and found to be helpful!

I wouldn't say I've been pierced a lot, but enough to say that I'm quite well acquainted with a piercing studio.
Here's just a quick run down of piercings I've had!

• Ear Pinna x 1
• Nose x 1
• Smiley 
• 12mm Lobe 
• 8mm Lobe 
• 2nd/3rd lobe piercing- both ears
• 4th lobe piercing/Auricle Piercing- both ears (retired) 
• Centre Labret x2 (1x retired) 
• Eyebrow x2 (retired) 
• Navel (retired)
• Nape (retired) 

Most of the photos aren't very clear, sorry about that! 

I'll just write a quick run down on how the piercing was actually carried out, my experience of the pain and healing etc.

Here goes!

Smile

Just a short post for today, but I just wanted to show my new smiley piercing.
I'd been sort-of/kind-of thinking about it for a while, in a "I like them but I won't do anything about it" kind of way. However, today I went with my friend so he could get micro dermals and I can never go anywhere with him without getting needled myself.
So, here is my smiley piercing :)

Excuse the bad photo, and the fact that you can't really see it. I've got a straight bar in for the time being, but when it's healed I will be changing it to a horse shoe bar :) 

Let me know if you have any questions about the smiley piercing, or any piercing in general. I've been thinking about writing a post dedicated to piercings but I'm not too sure what you guys would find interesting.

I'm by no means that most informed about piercings, but I've had a fair few so I can speak from experience.
