Welcome to Gaia! ::

The parlours reccomend against them but sometimes you're just the kind of person that just wants to get something done right here, right now.

I'm a good easy-picking impulse piercer. I'll just be walking in the general area of a mod parlour and decide I want another piercing done on my ears. Well, all I do is get them along the outside of my ear, so there's really no decision-making here other than "I really want someone to stab my ear with a needle and put some steel in it."

For example, today. I was in a parlour, booking an appointment for my tattoo to be done, and I was looking at all the steel and the pictures and everything and thinking "no, I am not going to blow an additional 40 bucks..."

But along came one of the workers to say that the artist was currently in a tatt job and told us (us being the girls that I was with who are getting tatts on the same day as me) that it may be best to come back in half an hour. The girls said they were okay with waiting and I, unable to hold my tongue, asked if they took in walk-ins for piercings. He said "yes" and I bit my lip and glanced at a picture of some guy with 20-odd piercings in one ear and he laughed and asked what I wanted and I said "Oh, just my helix, right up on the top of my ear..."

haha. That killed some time while we waited xD he took me to his office, did the piercing, thanked me, and then I went out to wait lmao.

It was good fun.
