I had wanted to have my nipples pierced ever since I can remember. My earliest recollection is prior to puberty when I started to imagine something stuck into my nipples. I didn't understand what I wanted but later in life, approximately 10 year ago, I pierced my own nipples using a safety pin. My lady purchased some gold hoops for me to put in them but I was never happy with them. Interestingly enough, I kept them open for the better part of the last ten years.I had very flat (inverted) nipples as a young man and therefore didn't pierce them very deeply which left a slight ridge. The good part is that any piercing of this part of a man's body makes the nipple much more pronounced.
So, in January of 1997, I ventured almost 100 miles to the nearest civilized piercing studio which I had learned about on the internet. I had picked a weekday afternoon because I figured they would be less busy and I was very nervous about going. I had no doubts that I finally wanted to have them pierced right - just afraid that I would be conspicuous.
I am afraid that I did feel incredibly conspicuous on arrival. However, the people were very friendly and knowledgeable and didn't flinch which I told them what I wanted. They sterilized the jewelry and got the room ready and then this very nice lady called me back to the piercing room.
I was very impressed with Geneva. She talked to me about what I wanted and what would happen. She took very good care to mark my nipples and navel and to get my approval. I had chosen 14G black niobium CBR for all three piercings.
When she was ready to pierce my nipples, she asked me if I would like to have another piercer come in and do both nipples at exactly the same time. She said that a few of her customers had found the experience very erotic. Well, John (apprentice at the time) came in and although they didn't achieve simultaneous piercing, I gotta tell ya that this is a very erotic piercing. I would recommend it to anyone who really wants to be pierced. Don't do it for someone else or for a lark - do it for yourself - or don't doit. I really knew that I wanted it.
My navel piercing was not as erotic but still felt good when it happened. (I like the feeling of a neele going through my body - no numbing for me.)
Well, the nipples healed up great. They look great and they still keep my nipples erect all the time. I get a lot of satisfaction from these piercings. I love it when my lady plays with them during lovemaking.
The navel piercing didn't work out quite as well and I eventually removed it. (Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!) It is better to leave the piercing in the wound and treat the infection with the jewelry in. Trust your piercer and listen to their advice! I intend to have this piercing redone in a few months.
Now, the reason for the title! I fell in love with the look of a Prince Albert. I read all the experiences over and over and couldn't look at the different pictures enough. I wanted a "ring in my thing"!!! So, in July 1997, I called up and made sure when Forbidden Fruit would be open and drove the distance again.Upon arrival, I met John behind the counter (He is apprenticing now - really nice guy!) He helped me to pick out the jewelry and made a couple of recommendations based upon my measurements. (BME has articles that tell you how to measure yourself, but the piercer will do it if you don't know how. . .) Then he turned me over to a guy name Michael, a guest piercer from Indiana, who would perform my piercing. He turned out to be a really great guy - very easy to talk to and very professional. He did the marking, inserted the guide and told me to take in a deep breathe when I was ready and then exhale slowly. Wow! What a sensation. I have never felt anything like it. I wished I could experience it a thousand times. Then he stretched the piercing to accommodate my 3/4" 10G SS CBR which I had chosen on their advice. A little movement, nothing unpleasant and the jewelry was inserted. A little cleanup and I had not only an awesome Prince Albert hanging from my penis but a pretty respectable boner, too. Smaller gauge jewelry usually doesn't make you as happy as the larger does. In fact, to be honest, I am ready to upgrade to an 8G as soon as I can.
A lot of people talk about the gore and blood. Well, Michael said that proper stretching there isn't much bleeding. By the time I got home, there had been some spotting in my underwear - nothing bad. I think that the small amount of bleeding was due to the eternal woody that my new piercing gave me. It has been three weeks and it is still having the same effect. (No down side there!)
While Michael was performing my piercing, I asked him about "scrotal ladders". I wasn't as sure about getting this done as the nipples and PA, but, damn, it sure looked interesting. Michael examined my scrotum and told me that I could easily accommodate quite a few CBR's. I had asked him about "8", and he said no problem.
So, I waited a couple of days and called back up the studio and asked who would be available to perform this piercing for me and if they had adequate jewelry. I had requested 5/8" 12G SS CBR's and it took a couple of days to get them in. I ended up going down one week after my PA.
I was very pleased to find out that Geneva would be performing these piercings. Once again, I can't say enough about how great she is. I really like her. She does beautiful work and, since this is my body, that is very important to me. (Note: Pick someone who does good work. A lot of smalltown tattoo artists will do piercing when they really aren't qualified.)
She requested that I allow John (currently apprenticing) to be in the room. I didn't object. Hell! These are not piercings for a bashful person. . . She marked my scrotum and left a little over 3/8" between piercings. The feeling of the needle going through your scrotal sac is not nearly as great as through your nipples or penis - but I still really enjoyed the sensation. Each time I felt it, it meant that I was doing something which I wanted really bad to do and that my body was becoming more like "I" wanted it.
This piercing session really didn't take as long as you might think. Geneva is very organized and really knows what she is doing. If I have my say, she will do all the rest of my piercing work. To really grasp the effect of 8 rings in a row down the seam of your ball sac, you have to check out my photos.
This piercing did bleed some because of the number of piercings done at one time. Not as much as you might think, though. When your piercer tells you to clean your piercings twice a day with antibacterial soap, do it! I found that the first cleaning done the night of the piercing was a little painful, but it did a great deal to slow or stop the bleeding. When the "crusties" build up on the jewelry, it irritates your body. Best way to keep that from heppening is to "DO WHAT YOU ARE TOLD!!!!"
The next morning, I was admiring my genitals in the mirror and it occured to me. "I want to finish the entire scrotum in this chain. " This will require at least 8 more piercings to go the whole lenght of my seam. Since this process is not cheap and since I have enough piercings to clean and tend every day. I will wait until I am healed and then "head for Austin"!!
Well! If you are still reading this, I will finally tell why the "Jingle Balls". When I walk, the PA and the 8 rings in my scrotum make a tinkling, metallic sound a lot like Santa's sleigh. So, my lady calls me "Jingle Balls". If I wear underwear, this effect is unnoticeable. However, if I choose to "hang loose" in my clothes, people look really wierd as they try to figure out where that sound is coming from. . . I love it!
