Q: Not sure if this is in the right category, sorry if its not!

So I'm 13/f, and I've been wanting a lip ring for about a year and a half. All my friends that are my age hate lip rings (except one) and my grandma (whom I live with) said I can't get one until I'm 18. Well I've been researching about it, like the risks, and side effects and stuff. I've absolutely decided I will NOT do it unless the materials are sterilized (my OLDER friends got their friends to do it with safety pins) But I was researching, like the different types, because I haven't decided on that either. I currently wear a fake one (lame, I know) just to get used to it and such. (Its the hoop that goes around your lip) Anyway though I was wondering if anyone knows a site that has details on different types of lip rings? I searched google, but all I got was mostly stores. I'm trying to get as much research and side effects and such done so I can make a convincing argument. My birthday's the 23rd, and I was hoping to try and talk my grandma into letting me get a lip ring for then.

I'm wondering about a lip ring segment, lip hugger, and a few more.

Any help is greatly appreciated
Hey, no matter how sterilized anything is can't prevent infections or anything. Like the person below me said, you wont die or anything but it can still be dangerous. Also, 13 is a pretty young age to wear a lip ring.. but if you really want one, keep researching and go for it.
