Body piercing is as you may guess, making a hole in your body that should not really be there. When any body piercing is made, your body will naturally try to reject the item, but as long as it is done in sterlie conditions, with sterlie piercing tools and jewellery, by someone who knows what they are doing, this should not represent a problem. All these factors need consideration,, and you must think about it carefully...it is your body that you will be allowing someone else to cut open to some extent. If you are not comfortable that wherever you first go to to have your body piercing is not scrupulously clean, use sterile tools and jewellery for ALL piercings, and also, probably most important of all they know what they are talking about, then turn around and walk out, and look for somewhere else!!

With body piercing being very popular at the moment, it will not be difficult to find somewhere else that is more suitable. Ask around, and see how your friends have got on in different studios, have a look around a few that are nearby, and at least ask a few questions, after all, you must remember that if a piercing is done wrong,(not straight or in the wrong place etc.,  it will probably mean that it is not easily rectified, as scar tissue will form.  This means that often the immediate area cannot be pierced again. Any good body piercer will be more than happy to answer any questions and will not want to rush you into a booking without knowing you are happy to go through with the body piercing. Remember, it's your body and you can choose whether to have it pierced, tattood, modified or whatever you want to do with it, so it is up to you, not anyone else !!
