It could be like earings or even nose rings the reason why I asked is that today I went to a local tattoo shop and got my nose peirced and it really did not hurt that bad I was just curious to find out?

I have a few, one in my left ear and one in my right outer ear in the muscle bit. I used to have more piercings but I don't use them now, my right ear is also pierced and so is my eyebrow, I haven't worn my eyebrow ring for years now, must have sealed up by now, but I only do the face I don't go any lower. You were brave for getting your nose done my friend!

I have my tongue pierced. I did that 4 years ago. It was something I was thinking for a long tiem before doing it. Sometimes I just forget that I have that in my mouth. It's now a regular piercing like an earing lol

I got my nose pierced probably 10 years ago. It has all but closed up because I hadn't put anything in it in a very long time.

I have piercings only my ears. It was pierced when I was in grade school. It seems compulsory here for every women to have piercings on the ear so help them recognize they are a girl, just like a boy need to undergo circumcision. I have not tried having a pierce other than in my ears, and I don't want to try even if it does not hurt. I am sorry to tell but I am not comfortable having piercing on other parts of the body, for me it doesn't look nice. But I know that folks use to that and that is a way of showing art to them.

Years ago as a teenager I had lots of piercings in my ears but only have one in each now. One of my daughters has her tongue and belly button pierced and the other doesn't even have her ears pierced. I think a nose piercing looks good but I wouldn't personally choose to have at this time in my life.

I only have my ears pierced. They both are pierced twice. I have never thought about piercing other parts of my body, but my daughter would like to pierce her bell button.

I've had my ears pierced since elementary school back in the 70's.. but 5 years ago I got my belly button pierced and it didn't hurt hardly at all.. I've had cramps worse. I have heard that tongue piercings can get infected real easy, same with lip piercings.... but I don't have any desire to get any other holes in my face so I'm not about to try either one.

I have my ears pierced. I have 7 in my left ear and 6 in my right. I've thought about getting my nose done but I'm afraid it will hurt too much. I am more of a tattoo girl myself. I have 5 of them and would love to get more.

my ear was pierced when i was really young. i do not really remember the process but i do remember when my mom did it for my younger siblings. at that time, they did not have tatoo shops. she basically used a needle to make a hole in the ear. it's said that it'll be good if you pierce when young as the ear skin is still soft so all of us had our ears pierced at a young age. it was also a requirement in our society you could say. she wanted to pierce our noses too when we were a little older but by then we could understand and we were afraid of the pain and always refused. it was kind of compulsory for the nose too. fortunately, in my teens beauty shops began to give piercing too. i pierced my nose when i just got married at 17 back in my country at a beauty salon. it wasn't that painful too. just felt a bit uncomfortable. but after a few days, my nose was swollen cos the nose stud was just a fake one from the shop. we hadn't bought a nicer one yet. it was so bad. awful.
