I doubt it. Considering that most piercing parlours do not allow guns. Truthfully, you are MUCH safer having your piercing done by a licensed professional using a needle. The reason is each needle is used only once for each customer before being disposed of therefore stopping the spread of bacteria. Unlike the needles, piercing guns are used on every customer, allowing them to become hazardous. (Now would you really want a gun that had been inserted into everybody else's mouth who wanted a Monroe piercing inserted into yours? My guess is no.)
No, you can't. And you should never get anything pierced with a gun; they're dirty and never cleaned properly. Would you want to be pierced with something that's pierced someone else, and not even been cleaned?
Needle. Guns aren't suitable for any piercing
I think they look best when your nose piercing is on the opposite side of any lip/monroe piercing, (if you have those.) If not, either side will look fine. (:
A Monroe piercing is a piercing on the left upper lip. It's called the Monroe piercing due to Marilyn Monroe's mole piercing. Many people now has this piercing which was started by the celebrity herself.
Any body piercing shop or tattoo shop that offers piercing services or Claire's. But, I have to say, it is preferable to get your cartilage pierced with a needle because a gun can shatter your cartilage.
Why.. not? Its... under parents control? Unless your laws are different in The United States? And.. When or If you get your Child's Piercing.. I don't recommend a Piercing Gun...
It really doesn't hurt very bad. But when its pierced you will hear a good "pop" or "crunch" sound (which most piercing junkies like myself think is funny) My advice though is to make sure to have it pierced in a tattoo or piercing parlor which uses one use sterilized needles NOT a piercing gun. It will hurt less and heal much, much better. What most shops that use piercing guns probably wont tell you is that the gun is actually not intended for any piercing other than lower lobe.
When you are having your ears pierced with a piercing gun there is a pinch like feeling. Some people think it feels the same as getting a shot. The pain is over in a second of time.
Contact your local professional body piercing studios, they will advise you of the age limits and parental requirements for you area. They will also provide you with piercing prices for the piercings you are interested in.
well of course, any piercing hurts, with or without a gun. but, i doubt they would pierce your nose with a gun, instead a hollow needle.
Pain and discomfort are part and parcel of getting the cartilage pierced with a piercing gun. The piercing gun user knows that they are not allowed to pierce ear cartilage with a piercing gun. Properly done cartilage piercing done by a professional body piercer would have been healed by now. The swelling is due to the stud backing being too close to the skin and not allowing the piercing to drain or breath properly.
It is largely dependent on each person. My labret (usually said to be pretty much identical to a "monroe" pain wise) and my tongue were simple and painless, but I thought I was going to cry getting my nostril pierced. My sister fainted getting her philtrum (proper term for any upper lip piercing) but she was laughing and talking while getting her nostril pierced. There is no way to tell which will be worse for you, and a good piercer can make all the difference in the world.
