Well, I got my lobes pierced at first when I was a teenager. Then I became interested in piercings and got my nostril pierced when I was 19. Why ? Because I had wanted one for years at that time.  

Bar my 4 ears, helix and self done nose my first PROPER one was my monroe. I had been going on and on about wanting it in first year of uni so in my last week the guy who i was seeing//chums with who had heard it all year booked me into a great placed and suprised me by waking me up past the shops and TA DA go get it done. And i did. I wouldnt have done that alone so it was great :) x

This is my first post so hi all. This thread seems like a good place to start.

My first piercing was my lobes when I was 20. This was mostly just because I wanted them done as I had increasingly been interested in body modification. Also, without wishing to get too philosophical, as someone who has some physical problems health wise it was a way of me reclaiming my body. I could control this if not my medical condition.

when i was 6 months old, i got my first piercing, my lobes with needles, but it wasnt my choice then, my first "proper" piercing was my navel when i was 11, it was the first year of secondary school and i wanted something to make me stand out, i asked my parents and they agreed only because they thought i'd back out, i didnt ahah so after that they banned any more piercings. i started slowly streching my ears at the age of 12, then the next few all followed in quick procession of each other, my sternum, then my nostril, and tongue when i was 14, then my nipple, industrial, septum and smiley when i was 15, at both ages i got them done professionally, but underage cause luckily you only have to be 16 to get pierced round here, and i looked pretty old for my age. then finally more recent onces from now (16) are medusa, tragus, sternum microdermal, nipple re-done, nostrils both sides, high nostrils both sides, and smiley re-done. and to be totally honest i got all of these done because i liked them, ha, i like the way they look and feel, plus i think getting pierced is slightly addictive aha

it was the right side of my lip. i thought it was cool and i didnt see many people with em. after that i knew i wanted more and continued to get more and more. id rearrange em get this done get that done it was my drug... scratch that my anti drug

at the time i got my first piercing i was a cutter. getting piercings helped stop that. instead of cutting id get something pierced by a "pro"(at that age i didnt know he was just some hack out of the house but thats a story for anothe topic) or id do one on myself. since then ive had over 200 piercings(that's a guess i dont know the real number)
