I understand that people have a need to overcome their fears.
People afraid of heights will skydive, or climb a building.
People afraid of reptiles will visit a sanctuary, and maybe even hold one.
People afraid of the ocean might take swimming lessons, or take a boat ride.
IF YOU ARE SCARED OF NEEDLES AND COME IN TO GET A PIERCING THERE IS A 10000% CHANCE THAT I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK THAT YOU’RE SCARED.
I am not a counsellor, I am not here to help you conquer your fear, my job is to provide a safe service to consenting clients.
If you are sooking (I won’t even say like a little girl because 1 girls are tough and 2 little girls take piercings like champs) you are revoking your physical and verbal consent and I cannot perform the piercing, you are wasting my time and the time of the people booked in after you that have to wait for you to finish having a fit.
I’m going to tell you all something - PIERCINGS AND TATTOOS ARE NOT A NECESSITY TO YOUR LIFE, IF YOU ARE TOO SCARED TO SIT STILL DON’T FUCKING GET THEM.
I am understanding to a point. If you are scared but just do it…hooray for you. If you grab me, scream, cry or anything remotely as stupid I will headbutt you.
