Oh my God!! I had no idea there was so much to know about getting my nipples pierced. I was just lucky enough to walk into Tommy T's Body Piercing before I made my mind up and ran into Tommy T. This guy is not just cute, but is the smartest piercer I have ever met. He explained to me the differences in Implant Grade Surgical Steel and Industrial Surgical steel. I am so glad because I had my nipples pierced at another shop (I won't mention the name) by some idiot that didn't even tell me how to care for them. Well, to make a long story short, they got infected and I had to go to the doctors and get antibiotics. Never again will I just walk into a shop and get pierced before I ask alot of questions. Anyways, Tommy T is the master. He knew everything from what type of jewelry to use to what type of aftercare. He was detailed in his aftercare instructions and knew exactly what the aftercare did and how it did it. Every shop I have gone to just said use sea salt. He said ask a dermatologist about sea salt and the y will tell you it is bad for your skin. It dries the skin out and creates small cracks. Bacteria goes into the cracks and that is one way you can get an infection. I got to tell you I was impressed with his knowledge. Anyway, he also used curved barbells in my nipples. He said the curve allows for extra tissue to be behind the bar thus allowing it to heal without migrating out. This guy knows his shit. He said he's been piercing for 16 years so I guess he should.
At A Glance Author Lila77 Contact sexylila99@hotmail.com When Three months ago Artist Tommy T Studio Tommy T's Body Piercing Location Huntington Beach Now let me tell you about the piercing itself. First, I sat down and he cleaned off my nipples with this really cold stuff. After that was on my for awhile, he wiped it off and then had me stand up so he could mark where they were going to be pierced. He took his time marking them, which was good because the other ones I had were a little off. I then sat down again and he washed his hands and put on gloves. He clamped my nipple and then he gently pulled it out a little, lined up the needle and pierced it. It was so smooth I barely felt it and I didn't even feel when he put the jewelry in. The piercing was done! I was so surprised at how quick and almost painless it was. The first time I had it done it was a little rough and it took a long time for the guy to get the jewelry in. Same thing on the other side and I was done! Much better the second time around!
Oh I am so happy I was out the other night showing off my new piercings and wow the guys love em. I am going to the river on Labor Day and plan on getting alot of sun if you know what I mean. I can't wait and I am so surprised at how easy the whole experience was. I am thinking about getting a few more piercings and now I don't even have to look around I know exactly where to go. I can't understand why there is such a huge difference in the type of Body piercing shops. One shop I walked into the guy just stood there and pointed at the jewelry. I felt like I had to pull teeth just to get him to talk to me. Well I think he didn't know anything about body piercing and that is why he kept his mouth shut. Maybe it was my big beautiful breasts that just had him in awww. What a shmuck. I didn't have to worry about that at Tommy T's that shop is great and you can just tell they are professionals. The place is clean and organized. I can't get over the fact that they know exactly what every piece of jewelry is made of . And I don't mean just the metal but but what percentage of what type of metal is in each jewelry. I never heard of Medical Implant Grade Jewelry before but now I know the difference.
The only thing I am worried about is that I am going back home for a week before my next semester of college starts up and I hope my parents won't see my new nipple jewelry through my clothes. They are from back East and would freak if they found out. Oh well it will be my little secret! What they don't know won't hurt em!
Well my nipples are healing great thanks to Tommy T and I will never go anywhere else.
