One thing that rather amazes me is when people ask their piercer, will it hurt? I mean, they decide they want some kind of a piercing, a nostril piercing let’s say, they make an appointment, pay their money, get measured up and then ask, will it hurt? Or maybe they ask for some pain numbing stuff, or start chickening out and asking for their money back.
Will it hurt? Well, who knows. Yes, of course someone is sticking a needle through your skin, but different piercings affect different people, er, differently. Besides, and this is an important point, whatever pain there is will be very brief, over in a second or two. It’s a small scarifice to get the piercing you say you want.
If you want a piercing, what do you expect will happen?
