Ok well I am currently 21 and live in virginia and have been into self piercing for about 5 years now. I started out with one frenum directly under the head and added another the next day right behind the first and ended up having a 7 rung ladder at the end of the week! one smaller 8g at the tip, one larger 6g behind that, and 5 12G short straight barbells behind that. Well let me start by saying this website helped me out alot in doing all my piercings as cleanly and professionally as possible (Even if I did use an alcohol dipped saftey pin and to guage them I just tugged slowly until the skin ripped to the size I wanted it. This is by no means a suggestion just the way I did mine) Well after all of them healed and I got a chance to "try them out" and so did my girlfriend at the time. Well I LOVED them and she did too. Shed allways been pleased before but she said the piercings really intensified everything! But the relationship went south and I was single so I figured it was time to try some new piercings... Well I tried a pubic but my body just kept rejecting it so I gave up on new genital piercings and was happy with the ones I allready have. Well now its about 5 years later and im 21 and just got out of a year long relationship a week or so ago so My immediate decision was its time for something new! Well I had one lower frenum fall out a long time ago and never got to repierce it but that wasnt going to be enough... So I looked around a little and didnt really see ANYBODY with what im going to call a reverse frenum (a frenum piercing on the top of the shaft instead of under it)
At A Glance Author Mo Contact Mo@bme.anon When A week ago Artist Myself Studio Home Location Virginia This is my experience, everything I did worked fine for me but I would still suggest getting any type of piercing like this done at a professional shop by a skilled piercer! Well I started by wiping my bathroom counter down with alcohol and sterelizing all of my rings and saftey pin I would be using for this procedure. I would be using a curved 16g "eyebrow" style ring to begin with and it would be right where the shaft meets the body ( 1/4inch lower than my failed pubic's) Well Ive allways just pinched the skin to be pierced and took a really bright flashlight and shined it through one side to make sure im not hitting any visible veins or anything important, then I take a sharpie and mark right above where I want the needle to go, I then stuck the needle in a bottle of clear neosporin (acts as a lubricant and also keeps the infections away) Took a deep breath... 1... 2... 3... SHoved it through... It Didnt hurt very bad at all! Well I stuck the ring in and it was a very tight fit but it worked fine. Took me about 3 minutes to get the ball on since I have fairly large hands and the ball was really small! Well once all was said and done I pulled my hands back, looked down, and smiled! it worked! And not only did it work it looked really good and like all my lower frenums was completly straight! Well I put some clothes back on and went back on my day to day activities and it did fine throughout the day accept it was catching on the inside of my pants so I had to put boxers on. The rest of the day went fine and I slept on it and woke up the next morning and still wasnt all that sore... So I decided lets make it a ladder! So once again I prepared my bathroom counter and supplies, pinched, pierced, and placed the ring in and that went perfect so I went for the third and final piercing. I repeated all the steps again and the end result is this, I am EXTREMELY happy with my new piercings! They look good and feel good and they were relatively painless! Its 4-5 days later now and they are comfortable enough to play with but the only thing im wondering is how they will work in bed... As I mentioned earlier I havent had a chance to talked to anybody that has these so I guess that will have to wait a month or two untill they are healed up! If I can figure out how to update this story I will update it and let everybody know how the healing process goes and how they work out once their healed!
Until then I would suggest regular frenums to anybody that just wants something different and fun and as of right now I would also suggest reverse frenums, if your looking to add some shine to your darker region or just if you want to spice things up in bed!
I Hope this experience helps some people as I know the experiences I have read in the past helped me to make my decisions! I am also going to attempt to post pictures on the site of my lower and upper frenums!
