Hey there,
At A Glance Author Josie Contact Josie@bme.anon When It just happened Artist Bruno Studio In the piercists' house Location Upton Park today I got my VCH. The idea came to me on Wednesday and I made the decision that night that I wanted it done. I text my friend the next day to ask her if she'd accompany me on Friday to get it done. she agreed, and I met her Friday after college to go to Seventh Sun a piercing shop in Woolwich (south London). but unfortunately I arrived 15 minutes before closing time (as the website said it closed at 6 when it actually closes at 5.30.)
While I was there I got some information. she told me it would cost £45 (or about $90 for our American friends), I technically shouldn't have sex for 6 weeks, but should be ok after about a week-week and a half and most importantly it doesn't hurt that much.
I was impatient however, and didn't think I could wait another day, so my friend suggested we make our way to Camden (North London) where there might be late closing piercing shops who are more likely to charge less. Unfortunately by the time we got there (7.30) everything had been shut for at least half hour. I don't suppose it helped that instead of making our way straight there we went to her house first, where her Mother had an interesting convocation about my decision of body place. It was weird speaking to a Mother about that. Especially as I'm never going to tell my Catholic Mother. Defeated I got some cheap Chinese from the stalls and made my way home.
That night I was looking up some cheaper piercing shops, watching some clit hood piercing videos, reading accounts and looking at pictures when I came across an add on gumtree for a freelance piercer who would do my piercing for half the studio price from home. I e-mailed him at about half two in the morning and received a reply that night telling me he would do my piercing for £20!! ($40) at 5pm the next day.
His house was on a road in a place called Upton park, which I'd never been to before so I got a bit lost. Also the area was.. to say the least.. not very nice. It was dirty and run-down. Not a great feeling. After a couple of cigarettes I arrived at the house dot on 5.00. I was surprised that I didn't feel nervous or anxious in the slightest. When I got in I was told to sit down, where he turned off the DVD he and his room mate were watching and put Muse on. (Who by the way I hate, I like heavier bands me) Anyway, after his room mate left he took me over to the table where I took my tights and knickers off, but left my skirt on.
As I was sitting on the table there was a knock on the door, afraid it was his room mate I pulled my skirt down. It was in fact the piercist's girlfriend, who was/is training as a piercist. She asked if she could watch, and since I was having a man pierce me, I wasn't too bothered about having a woman watch.
So he cleaned everything up, showed me the needle in the pack proving it was clean and then braced myself. He told me to breath in when he said and breath out slowly when he said.
When he put the needle in, oh my God it hurt. I've never had any other piercings apart from my two tragus' but it hurt quite a bit more than that. However, what I will say is this, and listen to me: half if not more of the accounts I read on here before I got it done said it's really bad pain blah blah blah, it is NOT that bad. I mean it's pretty bad, but I have a high pain receptors, but it did not hurt as bad as everyone makes out. what made it worse for me was the fact that he was rather slow about it, if he'd done it quickly it wouldn't have been bad at all. It didn't really hurt after either. What did hurt a little though was the insertion of the jewellery; which is to be expected really.
I came home and my boyfriend of almost 9 months rang, I wasn't going to tell him, let him find it for himself, but he's a bit of a worrier and I know how things can shock him, so I decided to tell him earlier rather than later. He didn't react too well, extremely shocked. It's not that he disliked it he was just in disbelief but after an hour, he was better; explaining it was down to his fear of change. Not to mention the fact he was jealous another man had seen/touched me in a place only he is supposed to be allowed to go. (Which although he wouldn't admit it, I think was one of the main reasons)Also, when I told him it was a bit more extreme he later told me he was expecting me to say nipple and was totally taken a-back by my real choice of piercing.
I love it, it's soooo pretty. It's well well worth it. As for sex, haven't had any since so I can't tell you the benefits of that as yet. But if you want any questions answered on this piercing e-mail me: josie_alexisonfire@hotmail.com
