my nipple piercing/streching story

I guess my whole obsession with nipple piercing began about 2 years ago while I was visiting a friend in Alaska. I met a piercer/tattooist named Kareem who had one regular nipple pierced and also his third nipple pierced. I really wanted a nipple piercing but due to the high cost (70 dollars for one) and the fact that I was about to endure a 3-day car ride from Alaska to North Dakota I decided against it.

So now I found myself back home with no nipple ring and a daunting task ahead of me. I had to talk my mom into letting me do this because I was only 17. My mom had been cool about piercings in the past, she let me get my conch when I was 16 so I didn't figure it would be too hard. Boy was I wrong, she was dead set against it. So after a couple weeks of nagging she finally caved and took me to have it done.

I made my appointment for 5:30 in the evening so I spent all day anticipating it. I even mowed the lawn to try to take my mind off it. Well 5:30 finally rolled around and we were off to the place to get it done. I knew Becca pretty well so we chit chatted as she prepped me and explained the procedure. Now it was time to get it done. She marked me clamped the forceps on which hurt less than most people claim. She had me take a deep breath and when I exhaled she put the needle through. Now I'm not going to lie but that was the worst pain I had felt in a long time it hurt so much in fact that before she could put the jewelry in I had to lie down in order to prevent myself from passing out. When I felt better Becca put the 14-gauge loop in and I was on my way. I thought I would be done with my nipples but I was so wrong.

After a while the one 14-gauge loop began to look little and boring so I felt it needed a companion. I didn't want to pierce to a 14 again so I first had Becca stretch my original pierce to 12 I also got a ½ inch loop instead of the 5/8 I had originally had. This piercing experience was much more pleasant. Three of my friends came to watch so we were laughing and joking around the whole tine. This time when Becca put the needle through I almost laughed and I even made her leave the needle in for a second so I could see it. So now I was the proud owner of two 12-gauge ½ inch rings in my nipples. This was not good enough though.

I began having problems with my nipples it seemed that they were always getting infected and they were becoming misshapen. I figured the diameter of the rings was too small. One day when my nipples were hurting especially bad I decided to do something about it. I was going to stretch them. I called up some friends and we headed to the piercing place. Becca was busy with another client so I had to have Justin do it for me. It was another good experience. After explaining that I was stretching because they hurt for no reason and I wanted a reason for them to hurt I purchased 2 10 gauge 5/8-inch loops. Now it was time to install them. Justin brought my friends and I back to the piercing room and I took my shirt off. Because my nipples are pierced deeper than normal Justin had to bend the loops in order for them to be able to go into my nipples. He got out a taper pin, lubed it and inserted it half way into my nipple when I stopped him. He seemed to find it funny that I was in pain, Justin is a funny guy. Once the pain subsided Justin pulled the pin all the way out and inserted the jewelry. Now it was time to do the other one. It followed pretty much the same procedure, insert pin half way, laugh at me, pull the pin out, and put the jewelry in. Now I have the 2 ten gauge 5/8-inch rings in my nipples and I haven't had any problems. Every once in a while I get a few crusties here and there. I am actually thinking of sizing them up to 8 gauge, but that will be a different story.

Well that is about all there is to my nipple stories. I would strongly recommend this piercing to anyone who is thinking about it. Sure it hurts for a bit but in the end you'll be pleased with the results. I know I sure am. If you have any questions or anything feel free to e-mail me.
