: : : I've wanted my ears pierced for a while, but I am the biggest wimp! I am afraid of shots...VERY AFRAID! My friend is a big wimp just like me, and she just got her ears pierced. She said it doesnt hurt that much, that it just feels like a pinch for a second. Is that really what it feels like or is she just saying that so she doesn't sound like a wimp? HELP ME!!!
: : Sarah,
: : Some people, who haven't had their ears pierced yet, will wear magnetic studs. For some people this is a sort of 'solution'; however, magnetic studs, if worn in the same position for a few hours can start to hurt, every time you wear them for a few hours.
: : So: think about it: visiting the mall and going through with the straightforward procedure of getting each earlobe marked up with a dot and then quickly shot through could actually SAVE some pain in the long run, if you would be likely to wear magnetic studs with any regularity.
: : (Having had the confidence to have it done once, you may not be satisfied with just one in each ear.)
: go to a place that will numb your earlobes first, you wont feel a thing.
Good idea.
Soon you may wonder why ever you hesitated, Sarah.
