I really don't know why I decided that I had to have a hood piercing, but I did. It all started one day, while searching through pictures online. I began to read stories, like this one, and I was intrigued. I couldn't get it out of my head. It was something that I just had to do.
At A Glance Author Julie When Three months ago Artist Dave Tedder Studio All or Nothing Location Smyrna, Georgia My husband wanted no part of it. He is very conservative and old fashioned. He is also a very controlling person. This wasn't my first piercing. I guess he didn't like the idea of another guy looking at my privates. There was no way he was talking me out of this.
It happened on December 30. I was off work and knew it was the right day. I took a shower and made sure to shave extra carefully. I didn't want to go in looking all unkept. I dressed and took the hour drive to the shop. I arrived and talked to my new tattoo artist about my next project. After that, I told the nice man behind the counter that I wanted a hood piercing. The regular piercer was off that day, so I was a little hesitant. He told me that the guy available is a tattoo artist, but was a piercer before that. He said that the artist had ten years prior experience. I had driven so far and had myself all syked up for it, so I agreed to let him pierce me.
He took me back to the piercing room and asked me what I wanted. I said that I wanted a hood piercing. He said ok, and asked me to take off my pants and get up on the table. I asked him if I could have it done vertically and he said yes. He then made the marks and asked me if I was ready. I sat up and looked down at it, and said, "Wait a minute, isn't that too short?" He said ,"No, it's normal." I figured that he knew what he was doing, so I lay back down. He then asked me to take a deep breath in, then out, then in and ready, set, punch . It was over so fast. It really didn't hurt that much at all. It was a slight pinch. I jumped back a little bit. He asked me if I was ok. I said yes and got up to take a look at it. Wow, it looked so adorable.
I drove home. It was so fun and exciting knowing what was between my legs. I could not wait to get a better look at it. When I got home, I put some sweat pants on. I couldn't stop looking at it. It was perfect. Knowing that I couldn't have sex for a week was killing me. I couldn't wait to try it out. I did the sea salt soaks with a shot glass twice a day for a couple of weeks. I had to learn to wear underwear again because I didn't want the piercing to get hooked on my jeans. As bad as it sounds, I love going commando. I have learned to wear the underpants again, and it was fun shopping for all the cute new styles that are out there. My piercing looked normal and it healed within a week and a half. It was very uneventful. This piercing was the easiest to heal for me.
I must say, the first few weeks were awesome. I felt it when I walked around. It was great for enhancing sexual pleasure. I love this piercing very much. Not just for the pleasure it brings, but also for how cute it looks. After one month, I switched the bar out for a 5/16 inch bar. It has been three months now and I have a 1/4 inch bar in it. My skin is only 1/8 inch long in the bar. It hangs and is uncomfortable now. I am disappointed. While having sex, it seems to get pushed up and I don't get pleasure from it anymore. I called the piercer and he said to come back in and he would take a look at it. He said he could re-pierce that same day. I'm really confused because I thought I would have to take it out and let it heal first. So I guess I'll have to update you all on how that goes.
All in all, I'm really glad that I did it. You really have to live life and experience things. I might not be a spring chicken, but I enjoy life and have missed out on a lot. I guess I am making up for all the things I didn't do in my youth. I was one of those girls that did everything her man wanted. Now, I am living my life for me! Don't get me wrong, he likes the piercing very much. Especially the first few weeks. He was getting more than usual. This was definately a memorable experience that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
