    Naa 18 is the age for a surface piercing.
    Its costs 60 euro if I remember correctly
    Mine healed relatively quick and with little pain during the piercing process. Ive had mine in now for about 2 years, gets itchy from time to time but its grand otherwise, just remember to keep it clean and go to a decent Piercing parlour!

    really 60 euro seems a bit steep does that include the actual piercing. (noun)
    do u have to make an apointment in most places?

    Not really, Its a surface piercing so it does take a lot of skill, you need to get the needle in the right layer of skin or else the piercing will go in too deep or too shallow.
    Going in too deep and you can hit the spine or bone possibly and going too shallow and it will rip out within a month. Its a hard place to pierce so you gotta know what you are doing :)
    No appointment needed iirc

    No appointment needed. I got mine done over 15 months ago and is showing no sign of movement. Rob in snakebite done mine. Cost me €80 at the time. a little steep but worth it.

    I was quoted 7 months healing time but everyone is different. Good luck
