Question: Should I Let My Friend Pierce Me? They Got One of Those Kits So It's Clean.
Answer: NO! Your friend could be putting both of your lives in danger by foolishly trying to learn this at home or just doing it on some sort of whim. A professional piercer has to know how to avoid harmful mistakes. They also understand the weight of the responsibility when they take another's life into their hands. Can you honestly say that about your inexperienced friend?
