go to a reputable piercer and use the right kind of bar/ring. good luck!
they are heaps of fun
That it hurts like a martha fecker.
DH used to have one, he reckons he almost passed out when they did it and he has a pretty high pain threshold... i think it lasted a little over 12 months until he was shot in the nipple by a paint ball gun. after that it just wouldn't heal and he had to take it out, and it left his nipple nobbly bit kinda all big from scar tissue. But he had a MASSIVE size guaged bar in it, it was serioulsy huge. I think that's what stuffed it up. I don't know what the peircer was thinking when he shuved that in.
it was sexy as hell tho *sigh*
Tips: don't get shot in the nipple by anything
Which is better, a bar or a ring?
OUCH! I'll remember that :lol::
The pain I can deal with... I get a rush out of a piercing/tattoo and was VERY dissapointed when my belly piercing DIDN'T hurt :rofl:
i think i'd go ring to start with... just for the keeping clean factor. the wound is open and is able to breath, kwim?
Pfft at the pain. I had both mine down took them out and they healed over so I have scar tissue and then had them redone a few years later.
My belly button and eyebrow hurt more than my nipples, DH agrees his belly was worse than nipple.
Bar v ring, depends what you like. I prefer bars, looks nicer IMO.
Noooo! I want that adrenaline rush you get with the pain LOL, if the belly hurts more then I'm not going to get it WAH!:
Thanks! I prefer the bars too, but might start off with the ring for the reason helle said :D:
Thank you ladies :D
Apparently it hurts males more than females because they have more nerves in that area. something about they way nerves disperse when the area develops on females.
Also avoid plush towels to dry the area after you get it done because the loops get caught if towel's a tad pulled IYKWIM. maybe a waffle cotton tea towel and dab the area (not rub in case of a loose thread) while it's healing.
ouch ouch ouch, i had mine done and it hurt like crazy
i had a bar and was pierced so i could still BF if i wanted too, i had it in for 2.5yrs and it never healed it was so sentsitive....DF liked the idea of a nipple ring until he was never allowed to touch it as it hurt too much
goodluck and hope it doesnt hurt too much and heals properly for you!
Thanks ladies :D
I don't need to worry about BF any more... if I get pregnant again I'll be asking some serious questions! (I had my tubes done)
I'm excited... now I just need the funds :lol:
A bar to begin with it allows the fistula to heal straight, you can then switch to a ring if you choose to. Getting a piercing and allowing it to heal with a ring in can then become an issue should you wish to switch to a bar as the hole can heal wonky. This is very common with navel piercings, that are typically pierced with a ring, upon switching jewellery the piercee will find the jewellery (bar) won't sit 'straight' and will instead hang to one side, itms.:
Cleaning shouldn't be a problem with a bar provided the piercer uses the correct size jewellery to begin with - it should be a few millimetres longer than the fistula (ie, there'll be a little gap that'll 'stick out'), allowing you to slide the bar from side to side to aid cleaning (and don't use commercial alcohol-based sprays, warm salty water soaks will do just fine) and also allowing for swelling in the first couple of days.
A too-short bar will not only make cleaning difficult, but can lead to some pretty major complications if it's short enough to pinch and interfere with healing. Just a guide, if your nipple is (eg) 10mm across, you'll probably want a 12-14mm bar placed in initially, and once it's healed you can then switch down to an 10mm to fit.
Good luck, HTH! :)
I have both pierced and love them.
They WILL make your nipples more sensitive (assuming you dont have a butcher piercer) and they WILL um, likely become more erect all the time.
Apart from salt soaks - 2 x 5 mins a day for 2 weeks - I would suggest the LITHA method: Leave It The Hell Alone.
:-D
No playing during healing!
PS: I have a different length bar in each one. A good piercer will measure twice, poke once.
Don't wash your boobs with a body puff....that's how I ripped my first one out.
LITHA method! Love it! Gonna remember that one ;)
Thanks heaps!!! Really appreciate it girls :D
Question for the Perth peeps.... where did you get it done and do you recommend them?
No-one does piercings locally, so travelling it is hehe.
Exotic in Northbridge. Only place I'll let touch me! (They have done all but two of my 22 - soon to be 26 - piercings)
And they have only female piercers....so no nervousness about boobs!
Thanks! I'll look them up :D
I'm going in tomorrow to get one done... but not my nipple. Have decided to get, um... another part done instead ;)
Bahahahaha... Really???:
Are you Getting a hoohaa ring?!
Please tell me how it goes!! I am always so curious about them but have never known anyone to ask!!
I saw that. Good luck! You have guts, I'd love to get one but I'm a big chook :) I have my legs crossed just thinking about it!
And yes make sure you tell us all the gorey deats!
hehe will do :D :D
Hope it went well!
Totally AWESOME!! I am so impressed and it's soo pretty.
I got the rush and then it hurt for like 2 seconds and then a wicked rush afterwards. I'm still on a high :D
I can safely say having my ears pierced hurt more.
A wicked rush hey? ;):
I still don't think I will ever be doing it!! LOL Is it still sore?? Apparently it is meant to make things so much better down there
That's what I'm hoping anyway! :lol:
Not sore at all, sensitive though. It only hurt at the exact moment she did it, afterwards it was just a little sensitive :D
You are brave!!! :o
I couldn't do it...I read that if they hit the wrong spot it can desensitise you...scared me off for life! :lol:
I have my belly and nose done...I didn't feel they really hurt.
I hope it heals well
hehe :D :D
Really? Even if it's the hood, and not your actual clitoris? I thought the hood part was just skin...:
That's my thoughts too, and haven't seen anything that suggests otherwise :):
so they just pierce the hood? shows how much I know!! I thought they pierced the actual clitoris!
That would hurt. Alot.:
Even if it just the hood if done incorrectly can cause nerve damage....if done properly it intensifies.
The risk is probably small especially if you have a good piercer but it makes me a little nervous :D
You can get your clitoris pierced too though :lol: the most common piercing is the VCH though.
Early Kids, my eyes are watering! hehe! :rofl:
good for you!
hehe :D :D :D
This thread has got a bit more open than I expected :lol: I started one in AO for the VCH chatting :lol:
I was weary. But figured what the hell XD:
hehe it's all good, I don't mind... I was just trying to keep this one 'cleaner' for the main forums :lol: :lol: but hell it's just a piece of anatomy!
