So it says 16 unless parents are present, which they would be.
Scroll down to the list of materials they can use for piercings⌠Gold, silver,⌠No glass.
Then do that, and let us know how it goes!
I agree that itâs incredibly cool. I went in for access control that ultimately did not pan out. I also wear glasses and have no plans to have LASIK in the future, even though it would be more convenient in the long run. That said, I also had an NFC ring before I got an implant (though it was not made by DT and was fairly horrible quality. Never buy rings on Aliexpress.), and had RFID cards to play around with before that. All told, I think idea to execution took two, maybe three years. Try non-implant cards. See what works and what doesnât before jumping in with sticking implants in you.
Oh okay. So like if I had my parents permission and I wanted to get one right now, how would I find someone? Is there even a way?
Normally we would recommend following a particular set of instructions that I canât find right now, Iâm sure the resident AI chat bot @Pilgrimsmaster will link it momentarily lol
He beat me to it⌠of course he did
The gist is not to call, but to take in a set of information to various piercing shops or drs if applicable because of human and social nature, itâs very easy for them to shoot you down over the phone⌠but when you are in person you literally have you foot in the door to discus and educate them on it
The catch is, being a minor, being in person and it being obvious youâre a minor could negate the foot in the door effect
I found my installer using the above methods, and a little digits sleuthing⌠he wasnât on the install map
I wonât say it is impossible but you are more likely to find a doctor who is able to do it. Legally a body piercer is going to be on shaky ground given that the âjewelryâ is not on their approved list.
I mean like how do I find a doctor to do it
Family doc
Friends dad
There are 2 for starters
- Probably going to say no
- Friend said his dad is probably going to say no
And an important third option
Even if friends dad isnt willing to do it himself, heâs clearly ok with the concept see if he can help you find someone whoâs on board
Ah
Also never say never, nothing ventured nothing gained, wonât know if you donât try
Etc
So should I go downstairs and ask my parents like right now, or tomorrow, or should I wait until I have a lead on an installer and a start to finish plan?
Iâd say get your ducks in a row, less uncertainty could be less for them to worry about
Having a plan ready to go, can help demonstrate that youâve done research and someone else (possible trustworthy) is onboard with it
First, you really need to do your research?
You NEED to read AND understand what you are reading.
Regarding the Installer, I would go to your Friends dad first.
âExcuse me Doctor Dad, If I had my parents permission to also get an implant like your son, would you consider doing this for me? I have done all the research and I am aware of the risksâŚetcâ
Also, please feel free to direct your Parents to the forum and ask us any questions they might have after you have spoken to them.
Yes we are Randos on the interwebs, but we are all willing to help with advice
âClassic Randoâ
I found it, and it was as I thought, It has been deleted.
So I will respect that and leave it deletedâŚits a pity, because it was a great video
oh well
You donât know until you try. I would read all of the information about approaching a piercer before going to a doctor. Print it out, take it with you. Refer to it while talking with them about it. Worst case they say no. Donât rely on your friend talking to their dad, approach them yourself, and say something along the lines of "I have researched this, I know what I am getting into, and as you have experience, I was wondering, if my parents give their permission and one of them is present, would you⌠If the answer is no, ask if he could suggest someone you could approach who might be willing.
If you think your parents will say yes then it might be worth asking them in advance, you know your parents better than we do.
