Just for fun (and because this is totally something I googled before getting some of my piercings), I thought I would rate my piercings on a scale so that some people can have an idea of what to expect when they get them done. It’s totally true that some piercings are a hell of a lot gnarlier than others!
Scale Key: Ratings are out of 10, 1 being the easiest/quickest/best and 10 being the hardest/most painful.
