Today I continued on my genital project. Before today I had started a scrotal ladder with 3 piercings all with Anatometal 10 gauge CBRs. Today I was hoping to add to the scrotum, but instead decided to start with some frenums from the bottom. I already had a PA, and I wanted to go to that point with the ladder.
At A Glance Author Hunter Jackson Contact Hunter Jackson@bme.anon IAM hunterjackson When It just happened Artist Sarah Wooten Studio Body Rites Location Columbia, SC I had a couple friends coming from out of town to get some piercings at Body Rites of Columbia, SC. My female friend was hoping to get a triangle piercing, but her anatomy was not suited, so she decided to get a Vertical Clitoral Hood. Her boyfriend was coming to get a Prince Albert and a frenum. They were stoked. My girlfriend, Iam Carolynne, was coming down with them from her school.
We all arrived at Body Rites and went to go grab a small quick lunch at a local deli. I always like to have a bit of food on my stomach before being pierced, and it is also required. We discussed piercings over lunch amongst other topics.
After lunch we walked over to Body Rites which is right next door. When we walked in there were only 2 other people. I had warned Frank, Shannon, and Sarah that I was bringing in some friends for some genital work. They were very prepared.
The session started off by taking my female friend back to see if she was suited for a triangle piercing. Unfortunately, she was not...so she opted for the VCH. After all the paper work and payment the piercings began.
The female went back first, and while she was back with Shannon, Sarah called back her boyfriend. My female friend came out with a big grin on her face. She said that she was extremely happy with her piercing. A bit later her boyfriend came out with a slight limp. He said that it all went well. Carolynne said that all of the piercings look great; I didn't get a chance to see them.
Unfortunately, they had to get back to school for a later class, so they left. I shot the breeze with Frank for a while, then Sarah let me know it was alright to come back. Sarah has performed all of my piercings thus far, and she does a great job.
When I went back, I slipped off my pants and Sarah began to clean and mark me. A lot of people hate this part, but I am so used to doing this. She marked for two frenums towards the base of my shaft. They looked great. The marks were lined up perfectly going up from my three scrotal piercings. Sarah was using 10 gauge stainless steel barbells made by Anatometal. Of course, they are internally threaded.
After the marking and all the cleaning, she came over to set up for the piercings. She decided to pierce the bottom frenum first. It took her a minute to line everything up and install the forceps. The forceps did not hurt at all, as they should not hurt. In fact, I did not even feel them.
While she was preparing I focused on my breathing. I took deep breaths in and out. When it was time, she asked me to take a deep breath in, out, and the piercing would be done. So I followed through, and the first was done. The piercing was not bad at all. There was a very quick pinch, and then no pain. This is probably the least painful piercing I had experienced this far, and I have had my fare share. The second one went the same way, only a bit sharper.
After the piercings she put the jewelry in. I did not even feel the jewelry going in. Anatometal jewelry is so comfortable. After all of this, she cleaned it one more time, and gave me a mirror to look at my new genital work. I absolutely loved it. They were perfectly straight and even better than what I was expecting.
I dressed, and left Sarah a tip.
When I got out, I verified that everything went well and finished the paperwork. I was so excited that I now have 2 frenums.
Afterwards, the four of us talked for a while. Sarah and Shannon are both pregnant, and Shannon is due in May. They asked me if I would be able to help with the counter while Shannon is out. Of course I said yes!
I would highly recommend this piercing to anyone that wants it. The pain is minimal, and the result in the end is great. I love these piercings.
The aftercare is a cinch. I use a small dab of Satin when I am in the shower. At night, or when I feel any discomfort I do a sea salt soak. The sea salt is a great way to heal a piercing. The APP guidelines are great as far as aftercare goes!
Feel free to contact me about this piercing, or any others which I have written about here on BME!
Thanks Shannon and the rest of BME!
