How to get through a piercing when I hate needles?

Okay… You need to be responsible. You should be scared if your doing it yourself or getting your friend to do it. There are so many precautions when piercing something yourself. Make better choices. Wait till your parents give you permission and then get it done by a professional, it is worth the wait.

I did it my self with a needle. first do it with a big needle like a sewing leather needle then let it sit there for a couple hours to stretch out the hole put something like a disinfectant on it like bactein is good it worked for me then when you think your ready get the actual jewlery hold your breath and push it threw up from the bottem dont stop till you feel the metal come out the top. there your done but make sure you take good care of it!!! wash it im the shower every day with a hospital soap like dial its pink and in a pump bottle and says antibacterial move jewlery up and down to get soap inside then rinse and keep moving up and sown till all soap is gone good luck!

RIGTH IM TERRFIED!! OF NEEDLES! I CANT EVEN LOOK AT 1!! WIV OUT ME FEELING FAINT SICK AND DIZZY! I HAVE MY EARS PIERCED TWICE AND MY NOSE! ITS NTO TO BAD IF YOU GET A PIERCING DONE WITH A GUN BECAUSE I DONT FINK OF IT AS A NEEDLE LOL I KNOW THERE IS 1 IN THERE BUT I CANT SEE IT SO IT MAKES ME FEEL A HOLE LOT BETTER I WANT MY LIP PIERCED BUT I CANT GET IT DONE BECAUSE ITS WITH A SPIKE AND THAT REALLY PUTS ME OFF!! AN BECAUSE I CAN SEE IT, I KNOW ITS GUNA HURT LOL X

I wouldn’t suggest doing it yourself, especially if you’re afraid of needles. Also because they get infected easily, even if you get them done professionally. But anyway! I was also really scared of needles when I went to get mine done a couple weeks ago. I just had a friend go with me, and I talked to her while they were doing it so I wouldn’t even pay attention to the needle. Before I knew it, it was already over. Just don’t watch them (or your friend) putting the needle through. Try to distract yourself :) It doesn’t hurt as bad as you think it will.

Maybe bring a Buzzy, a little bee that vibrates and has a cold pack. You put it to the side of the belly button, and press while the poke is getting done. The vibrating and cold block the sharp pain nerves. Mind you, it’s really only been tested for I’ve sticks and shots, but it ought to work. You could get one at buzzy4shots.com or just use an ice pack and a massager. -Dr. Amy

ok thanks…ya I am not sure I am going to do it…because I do shake and I have to be reall careful when gettin shots because I dont do needles.

I got mine done and it dont hurt that bad soo you should be okay jst close your eyes and take a deep breath and dont let go until your done pierceing it
