i did a little research before i got my nose pierced about 2 yrs ago ..some say its xaraam ..some say its not ...so i just went ahead ...my mum was not too happy with that ...i personally think only women with fab abs should get their belly pierced ( like janet jackson kind of abs)..even if i had fab abs i dont think i would ever pierce any part of my body besides my ears and nose...what is the point if u not exposing u body (which i dont).
