My name is Hillary. I am 14, as you probably already know, and I have an 18 year old sister named Stephanie. I like dancing, and my mother, who sometimes acts a little crazy, helps run a performance group I am in, which is where this story starts.
At A Glance Author Hillary When A month ago Artist Ken Studio the studio we went to My mother and I were in our car driving to one of my shows, and I told her that we should have an earring show, because we are always told no earrings allowed. When I made the suggestion, my mother told me ok as long as I wear one in my nose and my nipple. I was never into piercings or anything, and I just laughed at my mom making a crazy comment.
When we got home from the show, I asked my mom again to allow an earring show. She told me that it wasn't up to her, but non visible were still allowed. She told me that she was thinking about getting her nipples pierced, and because she wanted it, she said that she would have no problem if I wanted mine done too. My mom is usually strict as to what I can do, so I thought she was just making another crazy comment and told her I wasn't interested.
The next day, Stephanie told me that mom had told her she wanted her nipples pierced too. She told me that she personally thought it would look sexy, and asked me for my opinion. I told her I didn't really care, but I wasn't sure about the piercing. I had never gotten anything else pierced and wasn't entirely for it. A week later, after one of my shows, Mom told me that later that day she was going down to a studio and getting it done, and that Stephanie and I would be going. In the car, the three of us discussed it and I finally agreed to get it done. I figured that it was going to be a new experience and that if I didn't like it, I could always take it out. The three of us made a promise to keep it an inside family secret.
We arrived at the studio and walked in. It seemed pretty clean. Mom went to the register and told the lady there that the three of us would be getting our nipples pierced. Mom filled out a bunch of forms for me and her (only one of which I had to sign) and Stephanie filled out hers. We were then directed into a room where we picked out our jewelry. All three of us were getting small gold hoops, the kind that are hollow and fold into themselves when closed. We then were directed down the hall and into a big studio that had three chairs and a dentist table in it. Our piercer, Ken, came in a few minutes later, verified what we were getting (six horizontal nipple piercings) and instructed the three of us to remove our shirts. I felt a little unsure about removing my top for a stranger, but did what I was told.
Mom volunteered to go first and she removed her bra and sat up on the table. It was a little bit creepy, watching Mom get cleaned and marked. She had a smile on her face as the first needle went through and the ring was put in. After the second needle, though, she was flushed and was a little out of breath. She asked Stephie and I what we thought. I didn't really know what to think of them, but I said they looked nice anyways. Mom didn't even bother putting on her bra just yet; she just sat back down in her chair topless.
Stephanie went next. Like Mom, she removed her bra and sat up on the table. She looked a little nervous as she too got cleaned and marked. After she too was pierced and had the jewelry put in, she walked over to us and said "Well?" as she lifter her breasts, which I laughed at a little bit. The rings did look good on her. I then stoop up and removed my bra. It was my turn.
I was shaking like no other when I got up onto the table. I was cleaned and marked and was instructed to start taking deep breathes as Ken lined up the needle for my right nipple. I took a deep breathe in, and as I exhaled, I felt an incredible pain course throughout my nipple. It hurt so much, but the pain was very brief. It hurt a little bit as Ken put the ring through, but I was still a little shaky from the needle. He stepped aside so that my mom could see it. It was a little weird having my mom look at my boobs, but she said it looked cute. I looked down at my nipple, and took a brief glimpse of the ring before Ken lined my left nipple up and I was told to start breathing again. As I exhaled, again there was a sharp pain throughout my nipple. I don't think it was as bad as my right though, I guess because the initial shock might have contributed to my right nipples pain. The jewelry was put in and he did some last minute cleaning like he did with Stephie and Mom. I hopped down off the table, a little stunned by what I had just accomplished. I put on my bra, which was a project for me at least because it hurt and I couldn't really get them into a comfortable position. Finally though, the three of us made our way back into the lobby. We were given cleaning instructions and left the studio.
When we got home, Mom said she wanted a picture. I didn't really know about taking off my clothes for Dad. With Mom it was a little different, but I wasn't exactly comfortable with Dad. Mom really wanted the picture though, so we removed our shirts and stood side by side as my dad took a picture with his digital. Within the next day, he had the picture framed and set up on top of the TV, blending in with all of the other pictures in the house. The three girls in my family with our nipples pierced. Even though I had my original doubts, it did look cute.
That night, the three of us cleaned our nipples together, but after that, I just cleaned them on my own. It was a little odd, I must say, holding a Dixie cup with the sea salt solution up to your boob. Both nipples are still healing well. I have not had any problems with them at all, though they were pretty sore for the first week or so. It is our family secret, so nobody knows about it. I am happy with it though. It makes things a little more interesting. I screwed wearing a bra for the first week or so, because it hurt a lot to wear one. During dance class, my leotard does not show through, so nobody can see it, which is good. I am happy with my piercing and am almost glad my mom suggested it. I am also glad that I decided to keep it in versus taking it out. I cannot wait till it is completely healed and I can change the jewelry. Stephie and I have already bought two matching sets of purple barbells that will look cute. I am glad I decided to go through with my nipple piercings, and I think it would be a good experience for anyone if you're willing to go through with it.
