i have three on my left earlobe and 2 on my right for a total of five, i tried my cartlidge a couple of times but both times got infected cause the piercer used a gun the first time, second time was with a needle but still turned out infected. i might do it again but my cartlidge still needs to heal a bit. as for tattoos i want one on my neck. :D

dont get a tattoo on ur neck.. if anything get it somewhere that you can hide when need be. If you get it on your neck you will have trouble getting jobs and will be looked down upon in society.

yeah you got a point there. i had to take off all my piercings when i applied for publix. but this brings up another issue. like is having a tattoo socially inacceptable? the job industry is stereotypical :?

yea it is stereotypical.. but thats life. tattoos are associated with low class usually. especially one on the neck. how many business men do you see with tattoos on their neck? I'm sure many have them on their arm or back.. but not their neck.

I have no tattoos nor a  piercing, and the chances of getting either are pretty slim. Tattoo would be the only thing I'd consider, but for me a piercing is out of the question.

I'm 19. I had my ear done a total of 4 times, nape, lip, tongue (barely wear it because it just feels awkward...Big mistake) and eyebrow twice. First time when I was 14. My parents flipped out and I couldn't wear it, so it healed over. As for tattoo's, Total around 13

i am 19, actually i'll be 20 in like a week, and i have my ears pierced, my nose pierced, a vertical labret and an industrial. i plan on getting at least one tattoo of an ankh with an eye of ra (on my shoulder and small enough i can cover it with make-up if i have to wear a dress) but i know eventually i will have to take all of these out, and hide my tatoos. it is a fact of life. these things are seen as low class or immature sadly. well unless you are in europe and a nose piercing is acceptable. but otherwise people look down on you.

I think I'll stay away from tattoos. If I got one and then I changed my mind that would suck.

well it depends on what you are going to do with your life...ive had a job with red hair & i have peircings...not crazy ones but still. Also I know my career wouldn't be affected by my appearance. I dont really care what "society" thinks. If someone is going to judge me by my appearance they aren't worth my time.

I'd like to get some tattoos. I kinda know what I want. I will have them on my back and my shoulders, so they can be easily hidden if i need to look professional.

I highly considered knuckle tattoos for a while, even made out a design and everything, but it will ruin your life.

I don't think I'll ever get a tattoo or a piercing. I just think tattoos look ugly. Most piercings do too, aside from perhaps simple ear piercings.

Im pierced in my right eyebrow. The first time I got pierced, I was about 11-12 (my mom actually got me to do it :P) but then the school wanted me to take it off (damn!! School was ending 2 weeks later, I was pissed!!). So I got it pierced about a half a year later. And for tattoos, im waiting for my body to fully grow up and then im gonna get a good couple.

My dad is a piercing & tattoo artist. I'm going to do apprentice piercing soon. I know A LOT of people with them & Every chance I get to learn more about them I do..I dont think "research" is appropriate. I dont think it would ruin your life. Unless you had like..hand tattoos & you were going to be a lawyer or something...but still, that wouldn't ruin your life. & if you think you could possibly have a job like that in the future well then dont get hand or neck tattoos...
