I have had 29 piercings and all but six were professional! I paid well over $1000! I'd rather pay the money, and get them professionally done, so that, I know they are getting done properly. Also don't go to places, where you get a piercing for really cheap, because you may not realize, but your probably getting a cheap piercing.

Ears – tragus 2x, anti-tragus, rook, helix, orbital, industrial, lobes 10x

Mouth – Smiley, Frenulum, Web

Other – Navel, eyebrow, lip 2x, collar bone 2x, nipple.

I started getting piercings, and I had to just get more! I was 11 when I got my second holes, then I just kept piercing my ears (only the lobes)! By the time I was 14 I had 10 piercings. By the time I turned 17 I had 27 piercings! So I wanted to add to my collection. I was not sure whether or not to get a surface piercing, because the thought of rejection, but what can I say, I got it done! I started back working and I had to take out 23 piercings for work. I was so upset. I felt naked without them. So I said they can't tell me to take out my collar bone piercings, if my uniform is covering it! If you don't want people to see you're collar bones then you can just cover them up, other wise you can show them off!

I like to be different from most people, I like being myself. My favorite part about this piercing is the looks that you get from people. Everyone likes to be different and this is how I express my side. I hate when people call me emotional, because I'm not. They should check there sources and find the real definition of an emotional, because I do not cut my wrists

I have thought for a while now about getting my collar bones pierced, and so three days ago, I decided to get my collar bones pierced, one on each side. I went to Luck Devil with a bunch of friends who were all getting pierced as well, but everything I have already. I always go back to the same person, only the fact that he's really good. Also all the other places suck. All I care about is how clean the place is, where they get they're needles from, and all that good stuff. Bryan is very nice and easy to talk to, if you have any questions you just have to go and ask him, and he will be more then happy to help you out!

He let me pick out the size of surface bars I wanted. So I chose some small some small ones, nothing too dramatic. I was wearing a low-cut shirt for the obvious reason I was getting this piercing. It had to go a bit lower, just to be on the safe side, so that nothing would go wrong. Then he cleaned my chest placed two dots on the one side, until it was perfect. Then I had a look, it was great, so then he measured it out on the other side as well. He marked the spots where he was going to do them, which took awhile since he had to get them even with my other ones.

Once done, I laid on the bed and he grabbed the skin, and told me the clamp is probably going to hurt the most since it has to be so tight. I talked me through the whole procedure. I had to take a few deep breaths in and slowly out, and the third time, the needle went through. These do not go fast like most piercings, they have to keep them lined up, so the surface bar can be placed properly. It was such a different feeling; the only painful part is the clamp. It's so tight that it leaves bruising for the first few days. It is the coolest feeling ever, you can feel the needle going through, but there was no pain. He then put in the jewelry. He asked me to get up and have a look, it looked so amazing! Now it was time to get my other side done! I was told a while back that the second piercing always hurts more, when getting more then one piercing at a time done. But I don't think that. I was in the back with my two friends not because I'm scared or anything, just because we always go there together. It's like a reunion!

He cleaned them up, and yes they bled a bit, but that's normal. Only when he put in the jewelry is when it bled. I went out for a smoke; well I was waiting for my friends to get their piercing done. My friends all said that they would look stupid, but they have never seen them before. Once I had cam out with them done, they changed they're minds. My friend and I then went to the mall and of course a few people were commenting on them, while others thought they were cool. Most of the time when I wear low cut shirts, people don't know they are piercings. Some people walk pass me and say, "Did you see that!" It's not like I can hear them!

So if you're planning on getting your collar bones pierced I recommend it! Go for it, it's amazing! They are doing fine right now, you clean them like any other piercing, the only difference is that, don't try any force them out of your skin, treat them normally, clean around the hole. Only clean twice daily, and they are the Last thing you clean when taking a shower, and remember to use anti-bacterial soap. There is also a change for rejection, if this happens, just go back to the studio, and get them taken out. This is my first surface piercing and I absolutely love it, I was nervous at first, but now it's all good.
