I had been thinking about having a vertical hood piercing for a little over a month. I had done online research about the different types of piercings, after care, best placement, all sorts of things just so I could make up my mind if I really wanted it done. I had been discussing it with a male friend of mine yesterday, and then out of the blue I had another friend send me a text asking me about my nose piercing. This friend already had her VCH done two years ago and I felt like this was a sign that I should definitely have it done. We talked about her VCH and my nose and then decided to go together that same evening. We met up and went into the shop around 9pm. Unfortunately she decided not to have her nose done because she was unsure about the facial piercing policy at her job. She was not able to come back there with me so she had to wait out in the lobby. I was very nervous about the whole thing. I had went to eat dinner before my friend and I met up, but as soon as I got there my stomach started flipping and I instantly regretted eating. Although I was nervous I was able to keep my meal down with some deep breathing and reciting the Lord's Prayer in my head. Yes I pray, especially when I am nervous or upset.
At A Glance Author nonyabizness Contact nonyabizness@bme.anon When It just happened Artist Vincent Sanchez Studio Superior Skin Art Location Columbus, GA Vincent was very professional, he had pierced my nose a month earlier and I was pleased with his work. He's very soft spoken and helped me to relax while we were going through the whole process. As I undressed from the waist down he even turned around and waited until I was seated back in the chair before proceeding. He sterilized the jewelry and opened up a new needle, a new catch tube and put on gloves. He marked the area, let me see it and then got right to work. He told me to breath in deep and let it out, when I let it out he pierced me. The best way I can describe the pain is like a hard pinch with some stinging and lasted only a few seconds. Vincent was very pleased with the outcome and has asked me to come back in 3 weeks to have a barbell put in and to take some pictures for his portfolio. I am happy to oblige. I tipped him $20, he deserved it.
Up until I had my nose done I had no idea that I was a bleeder. I have 6 ear piercings and my naval, which never bled. I got home and about two hours later I went to check on it because I felt extremely wet, it doesn't take much for me to get wet down there and I knew that this piercing was only going to enhance that but low and behold as I pulled my panties off I was bleeding heavily. I had read online that you can bleed off and on for the first few days so this was not unexpected but it was bleeding a lot more then I was comfortable with. I called Vincent and he told me to apply pressure and to give him a call in a little while if it did not stop. Honestly it took about 2 hours to get it fully under control, I was having a hard time clotting. During the night I got up once to use the bathroom and change my homemade dressing. The next morning I was able to clean it with no problem and no more bleeding. My advice about that is to make sure you have some pantie liners available so that you don't ruin your underwear.
For those of you who are thinking about getting this done, just expect that there may be some bleeding afterwards. Don't freak out if it happens, just apply pressure until it stops. Make sure who ever pierces you gives you a business card with a contact number for you to call them just in case because they are the professional in this situation and they can give you the advice you really need.
I am extremely happy with my new piercing. I have told all my closest girlfriends because they all love sex as much as I do and I feel this would be very beneficial to them. I even sent a picture of it to a close male friend of mine. I am so enamored with myself that I don't even want to put pants on cause I keep looking at it. Call it an obsession I guess. I haven't had sex yet, its only been one day but I can't wait until I am fully healed. I'm not in a relationship but I'm not about to go out and find someone to hook up with. I look forward to my next sexual experience after having this done.
