When I was younger, I used to say I only wanted my tongue pierced and would never get anything that I couldn't really show off. But once I got my tongue pierced.. I wanted more. For the longest time, I couldn't decide what I wanted, until I found BME. I was surfing one day, oh about two maybe three years ago and was introduced to the wonderful world of body mods. It took me a REALLY long time to decide what I wanted, and about nine months ago I knew I wanted my nipples pierced.
At A Glance Author trey Contact trey@bme.anon When It just happened Artist don't remember his name Studio sach's Location albuquerque, nm I'm a very shy, and not so confident girl, so I figured that if I got my nips done it would give me that slight boost. Make me feel more sexy in a way, desirable if you wish. Plus just the fact of knowing that I don't seem to be the type to have a 'hidden' piercing would make me feel better in that secretive kind of way.
Being the slight chicken I am, I talked about it and talked about it, but never actually went and did it. I had an excuse for everything, not enough money, no ride, nobody to go with. You name it, I thought of it. It was more me convincing myself against it, than anybody else. I admit, I was scared of the pain.
But when I woke up yesterday, I decided I was going to do it. Out of the blue, I wanted to go then or I wouldn't go at all. So I went to work, got my check, cashed it, and headed to Sach's.. all by myself. I had found out about Sach's through BME, which I'd like to thank people who wrote experiences from there. It helped me decide to go there.
And of course all the piercing places, including Sach's is on Central. A street I dread driving on because its so busy and congested. I think more than anything I was nervous about driving on that road then getting metal hoops through my nips. I was really wishing someone would have gone with me but everyone ditched me.
So, I get there and tell them what I want, fill out the paperwork, pay, and am told to sit and wait a minute while he got the room ready. I think I was too nervous to remember his name. While I was waiting, I did noticed how clean and nice the place looked. I was glad I went there. He then came out and told me to follow him to the back. I sat on the examine table thing, reminded me of when I went to the doctors when I was little. He told me to take my shirt off, so I took a deep breath and took it off. I glanced up and on the TV MTV Cribs was on, which made me loosen up a bit. I told him how I wanted the playboy mansion pool, and he agreed and we talked about that while he took the stuff out of the packaging.
"Take a deep breath in, and slowly exhale." He said. I closed my eyes, this was it. I did as he said. A sudden pang of pain was felt in my right nipple area. I took another breath as he put the jewelry in. A grin crossed my lips as I looked down at my right nip. A nice shiny new hoop hung from my skin, with no bleeding at all might I add. Before I knew it he was telling me to take another deep breath. My exhale was a little louder this time around, because the second did hurt worse than the first. It wasn't too much worse, but I felt it a lot more than the first, a grin still lingered on my lips. He then explained the care procedures as I got dressed and I left. I couldn't help but keep smiling all the way home. Laughing at myself mostly, it wasn't such horrible pain that I cried or anything. A paper cut really, only on my tits and not my hand.
Now that was yesterday afternoon, and so far so good. I had read about people being in serious pain, and lots of bleeding and puss, but not me. In the care pamphlet they gave me, it says to do sea salt soaks and antibacterial soap washes twice a day.. but I've done three and I think I'm comfortable with three a day for now. Pain has been very minimal, it only hurts when I bump into stuff, doesn't help much that I'm a klutz. But all in all, I love my new piercings and wouldn't give the experience up for anything in the world. Its like nothing else in this world to know what your hiding under there. If you're thinking about it, just do it. Whats two seconds of pain compared to a lifetime of beautiful nipples?
