Well after years of waiting I finally went ahead and had both nipples pierced. I had originally gone this past week to just have my left one done which I did. But after a couple days I decided and my Wife agreed that it looked kind of unbalanced only having one done. So I just got the right one done today so now they are both done and it looks so much better. A lot of what I heard and read said that if you only get one done your going to end up going back and get the other one done. So I too offer this same advice to those thinking of only getting one done....do them both right away.
My piercer is the same guy that has done my tattoos. He is very good at just shooting the breeze which helps keep your mind off what is to come. I am not going to lie to you the pain is pretty intense. I would have to give it a 9-10 on the pain scale but it only lasts less than 30 seconds for me. Having the first one done was quite interesting but you know what is to come with the second so that makes it more of an agonizing wait. First he cleaned me up and then marked me as I stood in front of him. Then he had me lie back on the table. He then placed the clamp on me which was not the most pleasant experience. Then he told me to take a deep breath in and on the exhale he pierced me. He then quickly put the jewelry in. I am currently pierced in each nipple with a 14ga barbell. Once I am healed he said to come back in about 2-3 months and he would put a captive bead ring in both nipples. On the first nipple there was no blood at all. On the second one there was a very little bit. Wearing a seatbelt in the vehicle right now is definitely interesting since it gets a bit close to my tender right nipple right now. It has been 5 days since I got the left one done and it feel pretty good other than when I bump it pretty good. The right one has a tingling burning sensation which was just like the left one but that will be gone by tomorrow for sure. Just be sure to follow the instructions on cleanig and soaking them and you will be fine. The salt soaks help with taking away the burning sensation more and more each time you do them. I am happy as hell that I finally decided to have them done. Don't hesitate if you are thinking about nipple piercings like I did for so long. You won't regret it!
