Fast forward to now, most of the piercings are gone, and in most cases only tiny scars as big as a pin prick are visible if you look close enough.. however, there's no hiding the tats...

Whilst she has no regrest about the piercings, she totally regrets that tats and is stuck with them for life...

Piercings in most cases are temporary, and leave (in most cases) insignifcant scars - tattoos are for life...

However, piercings can look quite nice as can tasteful tattoos in the right places so don't think I'm anti-tats/piercings or anything!

Yes, I know tattoos are different from piercings. I was only saying that is odd hearing people say they wouldn't mind a tatto, but they don't like the idea of having their skin pierced, and this is exactly for the reasons you mentioned: piercings can easily go away in most cases, while to delete a tattoo you need surgery.
