What to pierce next?

    :D Half price piercings in Snakebite for the month of November! :D
    I've wanted to get something new for a while, but couldn't decide what. The bargain price has made me put my thinking cap on now so I can hopefully take advantage, but I still don't know what I want!

    So I have: lobes, septum, tragus, nape, nipple, VCH.

    Have no interest in getting my face / mouth / tongue / ears / bellybutton / other nipple / labia done. Probably not a chest piercing either as I don't want scars here later. Not too bothered about eventual scars in other places though.

    I'm thinking it's probably going to be a surface bar, but I've asked a piercer a while back what piercings heal well, and I seem to have them all already!

    Had a wrist piercing for about 6 months, and loved it, but it rejected due to stress. Now I'm in a swimming club so could be a bit dangerous to have something like this at the moment. Also work with my hands, so they're out.

    Could possibly get another nape piercing, or two and make a "necklace" but I'd kind of prefer to try something new. Anyone have other neck piercings? Maybe around the side or something? Are those vampire bites looking ones dangerous / near veins? I wouldn't go for the one in the middle of the front of the neck (madson?) And microdermals kind of seem like a waste of time :(

    So does anyone have a surface bar (or other piercing) that is not quite the usual, and healed well? Pain is no object! :cool:

    I am in the same boat! Heard about the half price and just thought MOAR HOLES! I want a VCH but I'm moving away in about 6 weeks so don't want to be out of action for the last 6 weeks with my boyfriend :pac:

    I don't want to get anything to showy, think I'll get a third pair in my lobes and maybe a helix or something. I have a left tragus and a right rook. Would love something a bit cool though! Not too interested in surface piercings though.

    Its tough!

    I was thinking of getting a reverse PA and this may just be the time ;)


    Also thinking of getting nipples but unsure.

    Princess Peach, the VCH only takes about 3 weeks to heal (all going well), and you could be back in the saddle sooner than that if you're in good health, it heals well, and you're not too vigorous ;) Get it get it get it!
    Although if you're going abroad in less than 3 months Snakebite won't be keen to pierce you, incase any waterborne nasties interfere with your healing. If you're going somewhere you're used to the water, shouldn't be a problem though.

    Topcatcbr, I'm probably not a good candidate for a reverse PA :p but I love my nipple piercing. I wish I had a more concrete wishlist!

    My boyfriend is too careful about these things, gonna wait till I'm away and can heal in peace :pac:

    Kinda want an orbital in my helix, but they are tough to hide. Damn dreams of professional work :(

    No crosses for me! Had the same nipple pierced twice, and it hurt like hell the second time cos it was really slow going through scar tissue. I suppose I should be glad my nerves healed up well! But that's the last time I stick needles through my right nipple :p

    And I kind of like having a "plain" one! Gives ya more options! ;)

    Well got nipples done yesterday. Not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Now just hoping they don't reject. I think they look nice. Glad I did it as I wasn't sure. Nothing like a good discount to motivate :-P.

    Go for blackline jewellery. It wouldn't be as noticeable then especially if you have long hair.

    As for a surface piercing you can technically speaking get them anywhere you want but anywhere that has a lot of movement will more than likely cause rejection. I'd say nape would be your best bet if you want a surface piercing.

    I didn't get anything pierced in the end. Was in Dublin last weekend but was worried about the amount of alcohol in my system for the 3 days :pac:
