I am considering getting a piercing and have done some research on the new (bme.zine etc) but would like to hear from those that have direct experience. I have 5 tattoos but as yet no piercings (I know, very remiss of me) and thought that an eyebrow or nipple would look good.

Which is better? By that I mean easiest to look after for a piercing newbie like me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I have heard that eyebrows grow out after a while and can be a hassle to keep clean. What healing time can I expect? And what do I need to do to clean it while is heals?

Obviously I will discuss this with the guy at the tattoo/piercing place before I get it done, but a little info up front is always handy.

Any other Body Modders here? What have you had done, or are planning to have done?
I have 5 tattoos - Eastern Dragon, Chaos Star, Celtic Cross, Celtic Band and Tribal Design.

I have both my ears twice, and my tongue pierced...I had my cartilage, and lip, but had to take it out for modeling. Me, being the stubborn person I am started changing my lip (Well, labret actually) after about 3 days, so long as I kept it clean it wouldn't get infected (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)..I changed my tongue barbells after about 5 days, and my ear piercings the same night from studs to small loops...As for tattoos I have one on my right arm of the green man with the German eagle on his forehead...Not too fond of tattoos but I made sure if I were to get one, it would be a good one! I'd post a pic, but I don't know how to. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
