For quite a long time I've been dying to get myself pierced in many different ways. I've got the standard two ear piercings and a cartilage piercing and it just hasn't been making me happy. So when the opportunity to get my nipples done presented itself, I jumped upon the chance. On the day in question, my friend was going to get her clit hood done so I said I'd pierce my nipples for moral support. Probably one of the most spontaneous things I've ever done was getting my nipples pierced, it even surprised my friend!
At A Glance Author Striphe Contact Striphe@bme.anon When A week ago Artist Danica Studio Tattoo Zoo Location Victoria, British Columbia So many people have told me that getting your nipples pierced is possibly the most painful piercing to get done and that sort of scared me a little bit, but I figured that I was going to do it anyway. The piercer that did my friends clit told her that she was getting off easy in getting what she was. I have a moderate pain tolerance so leading up to the day, I was pinching my nipples as hard as I could to see if I could tell what exactly it would feel like. I was completely off though.. thats for sure..
So on the day, luckily the piercer I picked out was available and ready to go. I picked Danica because I had seen her pierce my friend before and she was very friendly and professional and seemed like a great piercer. I was fairly nervous because I had never actually gotten a "real" piercing before. I hardly count my ears as getting a "real" piercing. We walked in and she was very thorough in getting everything ready, and marked the spots on both of my nipples. She clamped the right one first, which, I won't lie, kind of turned me on a bit (hence why I was getting them pierced in the first place). I told Danica the piercer that she was turning me on and she quipped that it would be an extra charge now!
She made me start breathing at a steady rate and told me she was going to count in on one, out on two, in on three and pierce when I was breathing out on four. She started the countdown and when the needle slid through my nipple it was like nothing I had expected. I was all ready for a pain explosion to rivet my nipple but nothing of the sort happened! I was so stoked! Honestly, it hurt a bit, but it should because you are having a needle shoved through your skin, but nothing like I thought it would be. There was a bit of a pinch when she put the ring in, which I might add looks rather stunning but other than that, there was no discomfort. Then she moved on to the next one, clamped it and repeated everything on the left nipple that she did for the right.
15 minutes later, it was all over and I was the proud new owner of two awesome nipple rings. Despite all of my friends telling me that they were terribly painful to get pierced, I can think of worse things. From this experience alone, its left me wanting to get pierced more.
For the first week I avoided wearing tight shirts and the like because it forced them down too much and that hurt a little. I think that within a few days of getting them done I had shown all of my friends and most of my family. I was so proud of having them done.
Its now almost two weeks after the fact, and the cleaning process is easy, I haven't ran into any problems whatsoever and they feel really good to play with although I'm not supposed to. However, my nipples have become really rather sensitive. Even the slightest breeze or even air conditioning can make them instantly hard. When they get hard is probably the only time I have a bit of discomfort, probably because they aren't healed fully yet. Not that I'm complaining because they feel really good when they're hard too.. The only drawback is that me and my friends are rather rough when we're around each other so they get bumped and hit, and they are a bit tender to roughness for right now. When they're healed though, I think they will ultimately feel really good to play with... even if its just when I'm rough housing with my friends.
I can tell you that getting my nipples pierced has definitely made me more amiable towards getting things done and it has been one of the best experiences of my life. So my advice for anyone out there who wants to get theirs done... Go for it! For the small amount of pain thats involved right when they're getting pierced, its worth the effort.
