A week ago today I went to the local piercing shop and decided that my beautiful nipples must get holes in them. My boyfriend of two years has mentioned on occasion that nipple piercings are so sexy they make him want to orgasm just by seeing them. So, in order to see if this was possible, I went to get the nip pierced. I attend the college across the street from Purple Haze so I decided to go in since I had three hours to kill before my next afternoon class.
At A Glance Author Dixie_Pixie Contact dixie.pixy@gmail.com When A week ago Artist Dusty Studio Purple Haze Location South Carolina Walking into the shop I knew what was going to happen. I would achieve the first ring and put the second one off until later. This was cool because I wanted to see how I would heal and if I liked the piercing well enough to get the second one done. After all, the piercing was $80 for both and they don't offer deals on seconds!
After getting the paper work done I had to wait in line behind a number of people. It was like a piercing assembly line that day. I was all by myself and as the time ticked on I grew so nervous I thought I would pass out. I was NOT a happy camper! I walked around the store growing more and more anxious and looked at the stuff for sale. I also watched the girly girls go in and get belly rings are cute cartilage piercing. I wondered how they could be such girls when I was about to have a huge needle shoved though my nipple. I slowly started hating these pansy girls I didn't even know. I started wondering if I should go though with the pain; I really knew nothing about nipple piercing at all.
Finally my turn had come as the girls slowly migrated out the front door. I watched them leave with their Vera Bradley bags slung over their shoulder. I walked into the tiny room and strictly out of nervousness immediately took my shirt and bra off and flopped on the chair hoping I wouldn't be noticed. (Like that was going to happen!) I wanted to play invisible. Dusty came into the room and asked if I was nervous... big duh! He wanted to calm me down so he gave some friendly chit chat to which I ignored and wished he would hurry with the piercing since I had to get back to class. Time was flying by quickly and I was ready to get out of there.
I always hate when a person speaks in a monotone voice. It annoys the living crap out of me and makes me want to call the person distasteful names and stomp out of the room because they have no people skills. And this is exactly how Dusty spoke. He didn't seem stuck up... he was just too routine. "Great, yet another teenage girl wanting to look desirable by poking holes in her body. I've said this speech a bazillion times today and really need a break." I'm not saying this guy really felt this way, it's just that at the time, he seemed like his brain was a computer and he was just putting out information. Yet again, I hate people like this, especially in a position of authority. Not to mention I am a young girl with her shirt off who is near fainting all so I can make my boyfriend orgasm. I am not comfortable, sitting on a sticky chair, with a strange man pinching my nipples saying "I'm not getting funny with yah just trying to get your nipple perky so the needle will go in straight." I hated myself at this point. But no matter how bad it seemed, I just kept looking forward to my nipple ring. Hoping and praying that it looks pretty because I can't wait to have it pierced.
After the dull man (yet oh so sexy, after a while I did grow comfortable with him touching my breast only because he looked so fine) marked my nipples I propped up onto the table and prepared for what was to come. It was super easy. I took many deep breaths as he was explaining the clamps. At one point in time I was so nervous that I tried to take the clamps from him, I thought he needed to free up his hand for a second so I reached for them. He lonely laughed at me and told me I was sweet for offering to hold them for him. Seconds later he told me to take a deep breathe and exhale. The thick screw-like needle went straight though. I felt as if it was slow motion and I could feel the ripping of the tissue. It hurt badly and insane amounts actually; but the pain lasted only a second so I hardly noticed it. My feet clinched and tightened and I jumped up a little. (I seem to always clinch my feet and curl my toes into tight little balls whenever I get something pierced.) As Dusty slid the jewelry in I started to feel an even greater amount of pain. It was bumpy and I could feel the jewelry moving around inside of the nipple. It's amazing how you never realize how thick a nipple is until it's been punctured. At least, I never realized how thick my nipples were. He put in a curved barbell because he said the slight curvature would help it in healing and keep it from rejecting. Slowly I grew lightheaded; the rush really took hold of me. I didn't realize that it really was possible to pass out from a piercing, but I came very close to it. Dusty told me that this was because I had only eating a Pop Tart that morning and I should eat soon after leaving.
As soon as I left I called my boyfriend to tell him the good news; he was thrilled. The next night he fulfilled his part of the bargain. He did not orgasm as soon as he saw them but he was very happy and it made that night intensely interesting. Over the past week, he's conned me into getting the second one pierce. As has the rest of the people I shown it to. So, today, I went back to Purple Haze to get my first piercing looked at. I always make sure that things are healing well and go in for regular check ups. The lady that was there said it was looking wonderful especially for only being a week old. As of now I haven't had any sensitivity to it at all. It's been great and has behaved swell. I soaked it with ear solution (I got my second holes done recently!) and salt baths. Today, I let her pierce the second one. I love it. It bled a little more than the first one, but I think its going to do fine. (Crosses fingers)
Overall, so far, the experience has been wonderful and I totally recommend any man or woman to do it if they like the idea. It hurts a lot but it subsides as quickly as it came on. (I give the pain about a 7.5 out of 10... 10 being bad!) And also, for those women who are shy about their bodies, I swear you are not the first to get their nipples pierced and it is totally a professional atmosphere. You'll be nervous at first but just let yourself understand that this is a good thing and trust your piercer.
One last thing, I just want to let everyone know how important it is to keep your piercing in good shape. It really takes work to keep them from getting infected. I recommend getting a checkup the first week and then the first month followed by every other month up until one year. And never be afraid to go in if you have an issue. Your piercer is there to help with your piercing, he isn't just there to pierce you and be done. Every piercer I've gone to for "checkups" has praised me for doing what I can to take care of my beautiful babies!
