    Default Nape Piercing?

    Anyone have one of these?

    Since Im going to touch up my tat at the end of the month I was thinking of getting that too. Only the one I want is 2 of them parallel to each other. Maybe glow in the dark I dont know.


    My question is does it effect your money in a negative way? Since it can be hidden behind your hair I dont see it being a huge problem. Although, Im still curious as to if it effects anything at all.

    It very well could. While a lot of piercings such as navel, nose, or tongues are becomming more mainstream, some of the more exotic locations are still not. I think going to the nape of your neck is a bit of an odd location so imagine this scenario...

    You're doing a dance for some customer and another guy across the club or a few seats over catches your dance. He's interested as hell and then he sees your hair swish to one side and sees that piercing. He's a bit on the conservative side and gets really grossed out by it. So now you finish with Customer 1 and wander over to Customer 2. Meanwhile he's looking at you as some sort of freak but you don't understand why. You go to close the sale and he says no thanks. You walk away with a huge question mark over your head and you don't know why you just got turned down.

    While a piercing like this may certainly attract some guys, I can guarantee you it will turn away 5X more. Just food for thought.

    I'd be more worried about it migrating out. Surface piercings are a bitch to get to take hold and a large percentage of them eventually grow out.

    maybe u could get the pericings if u really want them, but if it starts affecting your money you could get those clear plastic things they make now that u put in place of the jewelry in the peircing and no one would even know they were there.

    They do surface piercings with this plastic tubing underneath your skin now, to prevent migration. Migration isn't a guarantee either, my bf has a metal bar surface piercing underneath his chin and it stays in place after almost 2 years. However, with the plastic tubing, I'm not sure how easily you can change the beads.

    And I think nape piercings are hot.

    I think anyone who would be turned off by it would most likely not even think twice as to what it was, especially since it's in a semi-discreet area.

    I hadn't heard about the plastic tubing to keep it from migrating until now, that would have been my biggest concern. I was very close to getting two surface piercings on each of the tops of my wrists years ago and I didn't because they told me that it would migrate quickly.

    I say, do it!! Whheeeee!! And make sure you post pics if you do!!!
