I'm fifteen now, and when I look back on getting my nipple pierced I realize that it was a pretty shady affair. All in all everything turned out good with it, but the circumstances in which I got it done are not good at all.
At A Glance Author anonymous Contact anonymous@bme.anon When A year ago Artist Rhonda Studio Bria's Location Abbotsford So I'll start by talking about my current mods, I have two standard lobes, pierced with a gun unfortunatly (hell, I was three years old, what did I know at the time?) both sides of my nostril done at 18 gauge, I got the left side when I was 11 and the right side about a month ago. I have my nipple pierced, got it done last year at 14 gauge, I have my top and bottom navel, got the bottom done when I was fourteen and the top done twice about 7 months ago (it got horribly infected the first time) and yah, thats about it. I use to have a surface piercing below my navel, but because the woman who did it (also the woman who did my nipple) was a FOOL (I went in there, explained that I wanted a surface bar and she blew some stupid reason out her ass why it wasn't appropriate for the placement I wanted it in, and I believed her...stupid, stupid decision) it started to reject after a couple of weeks.
Ok, so, I currently had my top and bottom navel and my left nostril pierced and I was urning to have a new mod. I asked my parents if I could get my tounge pierced, and that wasn't happening because I was getting braces soon and both my parents thought it was disgusting. So I pondered and pondered what I wanted, and I decided getting my nipple pierced would be awfully dope. I didn't even bother asking my parents because I knew they would laugh in my face. So I came up with a plan. I knew of a woman in town who pierced at sixteen without parental consent. So I figured I would just show up at her shop wearing some high heels and eyeliner and hope for the best, and if she turned me down I could tell her she could phone my "mother" (I would give her my older sisters phone number) and see if it was ok.
So, I save up some money and go down to her shop. I tell her what I want, she asks my age, I lie, and I'm in the chair. No ID needed, no parental consent, no nothing. I was FOURTEEN. Looking back on it now I know, I KNOW I didn't look sixteen, but whatever, what was done was done. My best friend was with me, and as we sit in the lobby and I fill out the forms she asks me if I care if she comes in, and I was so glad she asked, I needed someones hand to hold, because I was honestly horrified.
So Rhonda calls me and my friend, Stephanie, in. She gets everything set up and tells me what she's doing, how it's gonna feel, ext. I am visibily nervous, so she tells me that through the procedure I'll have to sit on my hands to prevent me from grabbing her arm. She told me it wasn't because she thought I was "crazy" but because it was a natural reflex for some people.
So I'm sitting in the chair, topless and excited sitting on my hands. I am all marked and ready to go. She clamps me, very hard. She told me she did it really hard to prepare me for the pain of the piercing, even though the clamp didn't hurt that much. She tells me to take three deeps breaths in (oh god thats the one part of getting pierced I hate SO MUCH!! I prefer it when they just trick me and stab it through on breath number one or two) and then on the third breath she shoves the needle through. I won't lie, it wasn't a pleasurable feeling at all, it did hurt, but it wasn't unbearable. So she puts the jewlery through and look at it in the mirror after I am all cleaned up, it looks fucking great. I pay the woman and I am on my way.
I notice for the first few days of having a nipple piercing you are EXTREMELY aware of the fact you have it done. I had to wear a nice tight sports bra for a few weeks to eliminate friction between the piercing and fabric which is a very unpleasant feeling. My nipple piercing is healed now, even though it still creates alot of discharge. I don't think it makes my nipple any more or less sensitive, so sexually it isn't that much fun, especially considering my boyfriend won't go near it for some odd reason. But it looks pretty so I enjoy it. If you are considering getting it or any other piercing done I wouldn't suggest Bria's for reasons I will post in another experience. But anyways, if you want your nipple pierced I will tell you that it will hurt, it will take a long time to heal, but it will be worth it. My right breast has never been prettier :)
