i really want my nose pierced, lip pierced, and a tattoo. however i know that my mom will never ever let me get a tattoo and even when i turn 18 she told me if i ever showed up with a tattoo she'd kick me out of the house and be really really really mad. & i know i don't want to get on her bad side. i highly doubt she'd ever let me get my lip pierced, thats also pretty close to never. but if i got it when i was like 18 or whatever, i don't think she'd kick me out. however, when i asked her if i could get my nose pierced their was a short pause before she said no. & it seemed like she would kind of consider letting me get it. i really really want my nose pierced. what can i say or do to make her let me get it? any personal experiences on how you got something like that from your parents? thanks!

I got it done one time after college and then rang her afterwards, I just kinda said "Ive had my lip pierced" she said "you better not have done" but when I got home the stud was sooo tiny that she said she could hardly notice and it finally grew on her. She hated when I changed to a ring so now I just wear the stud and she likes it. If you think your mum would maybe be like that and it could grow on her then id get it done.
Also remind your mum that the nose and lip rings can be removed whenever you dont want it.
Id think more about the tattoo though and get it when your older, because some people have tattoos when their young and end up regretting it because its what they thought they wanted as a tattoo at the time. Just think carefully

instead of just asking her make small talk first then explain that you are getting older and you really do want your nose peirced.She mayeven open up to you about why she doesnt wont you to get it done.I know...parents can be butt cracks sometimes but at least listen shell come around eventually.(this worked when i wanted my belly button peirced.)
feelfree to ask me any other questons
