I have been fascinated with piercing ever since I was in Middle school, so roughly about 11/12. It was always something I would like to do myself when I was older and I thought a lot about what I wanted to have done. It wasn't until I was in High school that I began contemplating having my nipple pierced.
At A Glance Author traceyu168 Contact traceyu168@hotmail.com When Two years ago I saw a woman in a newspaper caught with her top down showing her pierced nipple and thought 'that's the one for me'. I was roughly about 14 at the time and although I knew I was too young to even be thinking about it, I decided to find whatever pictures I could of female nipple piercing. The more time went on the more I was attracted to them, how they would feel and ultimately the pain barrier!! Now being a person who can't stand the sight of injection needles, piercing was a funny thing to have an interest in. I sooner realised that it was not the needle that I had a problem with, but where the needle was going and what it was doing in my body.
A few years passed, and it was my 18th Birthday, I had really wanted to do something to mark it but wasn't quite sure what. A few more weeks went by and it wasn't until one day I was sitting at college that I casually turned to one of my friends and said
'Will you come with me this afternoon?' to which she replied
'Yeah, why?'
For some reason I remember a small, smug smile appear on my face as I said
'Because I'm going to get my nipple pierced'.
Her face said it all; it was a mixture of true horror and surprise. I had a few more lectures to get through at college before eventually plucking up the courage to actually get there. Those few hours seemed like the longest of my entire life.
Eventually, it got to 1:00 p.m. and college finished. The only thing I remember after coming out of college was being in the studio and being asked to whip my clothes off. I was hoping that it would be a male that pierced me (sounds weird coming from a woman), for some reason I always got the impression that they would be far gentler than females, I wasn't wrong. The guy that pierced me couldn't have been more than 30, but he was really sweet and put me at my ease straight away. Apart from my boyfriend, he's the only person I felt taking my clothes off in front of. He then sat me down on the bed and marked the entrance and exit holes and asked me if I thought that they looked straight, I just laughed and said something along the lines of
'As straight as they'll ever be!'
As much as I had wanted them done for such a long time, I had some sort of doubt in my mind, and still to this day I don't know why. He told me to lay down and get comfortable (wow, I had my top off, lying on a bed and a guy tells me to get comfortable! How often does that happen?!). I did as I was told, and had this sudden urge to have my friend hold my hand in case the pain got too much, she didn't mind, really she didn't, she just ended up being worse than me and I've never seen her so scared in my life. Anyway, he popped the clamps on, not too bad I thought. I seemed to be waiting for ages for the needle to go through my skin whilst watching my friends face twist in as many different ways that I didn't even think was possible. A few seconds had past, and I still felt nothing, he told me he hadn't numbed it, as he didn't think that there would be any need to. Still waiting, then all of a sudden he said 'right ok, that's the needle through' at this point I thought no way could he have done this without me feeling anything, but he had. After that I was quite happy to sit and watch him put the barbell in, which did have a slight tugging sensation but nothing I couldn't handle.
That was it; I had finally done the one thing I had really wanted to do since I was a young teenager. Wow, I never stopped smiling for the rest of the day it felt so good. I did what I had to do to clean it and keep it right and it's still beautiful to look at. My only problem is that it's taken a dislike to bcr's. I say a problem, it's not really I can still put lots of other jewellery and balls and spikes on it. It is definitely the best piercing ever!!!!
