for loop or not?

Although I do know how to insert many rows in a table(with a single query), in the situation I am facing things are not so straight forward.Let me explain:

I have an app where the business user enters his services offered in a form and these consequently must enter a database....there would not be a problem if every user offered the exact number of services...the issue is that this varies.(the services go from the client to the server in an array).

Question:
Suppose we have 4 or 3 or 2 services to enter in the database....is it the best way to do it to use a for loop the runs a query that inserts one service at a time in the db?
