If piercing hurts, wait until you have to put up with the rubbing of waists on pants and panties and shirts and belts, and wait until it gets infected because it's in a spot easily infected, then you will know pain.

Do you think any adult here is going to advise you on how to hide from parents and the legal restrictions of places that do this?

Ask the adult(s) whose care you are under when you can have one out in the open. If they say never, that's life until you are 18.

I'm old (60s) and like tattoos and piercings just fine, but 11 is just too soon. I'd let you do it at 15.

Yeah, I got to agree, you are rushing this, especially since you have so much growing to still do, it very well might end up stretching the piercing hole and make it look bizarre. I'd suggest waiting till your 16 and going to a proper piercer, or even 18 when you won't need mom or dad to sign off for you. I think girls stop growing at like 17ish?

Also think about how much trouble you'd get in when your mom or dad or whoever saw it? They will, trust me, one loose button on a shirt, one time stretching too much and BAM! Grounded for 2 weeks and no more piercing... actually I'd probably ground my kid for a lot longer, hm...

Anyway, if you still need convincing to wait and see a professional to get it done in a few years, go Google up some images of the infections from piercing, that should turn you right off this for a while
