PIERCING DAY IS THE INTERNATIONAL BODY PIERCING DAY.

Body piercing in all forms has grown in popularity among both men and women, as well as cultures. As the art form evolves, the market and legislation governing those industries change around the world and Asia. Certain states require studios to be approved by the health department in the United States, while others have no rules in place at all. Depending on where you work, getting a piercing may be risky. However, in other situations, the personal expression of a piercing is a valuable.
