You haven't got that much longer until you're an adult and can make these decisions without your parents' consent. I agree that you should wait. Piercings are not at all expensive, though you always have the option of trying DIY again (all mine except the original standard ear piercings are DIY), and if you wait you really will appreciate them far more. Sneaking around behind your parents' back seems like cheating yourself out of an experience that can be personally empowering. It's - I don't know how else to put this - a baby thing to do.
