From fist hand experience I can HONESTLY say that piercing doesn't hurt as much as it is expected to. I have often walked into a piercing studio overcome with nerves only to walk out again wondering why I was so nervous. If you wanna do it then go for it but do try to go to a body piercers that specialise in body piercing (not a tattoo parlour that do piercings as a side line)otherwise you may end up with a painful piercing. The best in my area East Sussex, UK is Perforations follow this link for their website.

This table is drawn up from both experience and the things that friends have told me to give you a ROUGH idea as to what you can expect pain-wise. If you have any comments or would like to add a new piercing to the list e-mail me at jennyterry@hotmail.com. It is only a rough guide and everyone has different pain thresholds so don't quote me on this, however I still stress that piercing is relatively painless and a lot of places offer anesthetic.
There are piercings that are not included in this list but watch this space for up-dates. If you wish to fill in the gaps e-mail me.
