Watch: North West Unveils Piercings on Wrist and Knuckles in New TikTok

North West has got piercings on her hands, the other holdin’ bands.

The eldest daughter of Kim Kardashian and ex-husband Kanye “Ye" West gave fans a peek at her latest dermal piercings, including ones on her knuckles and her wrists.

In a recent TikTok video, the 12-year-old danced along to the song “Under Your Spell” by the Snow Strippers as she showed off her hand piercings, her super detailed nails and signature blue hair for the camera. 

The tween was first seen with finger piercings in September, later releasing the song “Piercing on My Hand” with her dad in January. 

“Piercing on my hand / the other holdin' bands / No friends, just fans, you wouldn't understand,” she sang on the track. “Shoppin' in Japan, that's where I always stand / Went to school for two days, then I got banned.”

But North hasn’t kept her experimentation to just her hand piercings, as she’s also sported daring manicures featuring spikes and piercings, as well as colored contact lenses and most recently debuted 14-karat white gold grills.

And while some online users have been judgmental of North’s bold choices, mom Kim has dismissed the criticism.

“I'm like, ‘Babe, if you want blue hair, it is what it is,’” Kim told Alex Cooper on Call Her Daddy in October. “It makes her so happy. I would never take that creative away from her.”

The SKIMS founder—who is also mom to Saint, 10, and Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 7—has also pushed back at those who have been critical about her parenting decisions.

“I think like the one misconception that people might have is like, ‘Oh, she's trying to be her bestie and lets her get away with a lot,’” she shared on sister Khloe Kardashian’s Khloe in Wonderland podcast in January. “Like, no. North actually has a lot of rules. The one area is I do let her express herself, and I do let her do that. And I love her for it.”

Plus, she knows that North would “do it regardless,” adding that it’s easy for others who are not in her position to throw stones.

“I think that no one knows unless they're in my shoes of what I'm dealing with,” Kim emphasized, “and how we have to manage certain things from the outside world, or even close in our life, that we have to go through together.”
