How do I become a professional piercer?

First of all you should decide is it good for you to become a piercer? Or you simply want to get some practice in piercing. Ask some piercer what is it to be a piercer — advantages, disadvatgaes. Being a professional body piercer is not an overnight/day course thing.

If you are ready for this try the following scenario. You can take a piercing course first, but understand that these courses are not training to be a piercer — they are preparatory courses intended as an introduction for those seeking an apprenticeship. In no way do they make you qualified to pierce the public. To get an apprenticeship, first find the best studios in your area. Get to know the piercers, and then let them know you’re seeking an apprenticeship. Of course, they get a hundred kids a year asking this same question, so you may need to show perseverance and patience. Then you can some experience and find lots of friend with the same mind as yours.

If you are willing just pierce your friend you better send them to professional studio :)
