i know this isnt love or sex related, but lots of people with lots of info go here, so yeah, help me out please.. a friend of mine wants to get thier nipple pierced by themselves. she's got no experiance or training that i know of, so i dont want her getting a wierd infection that will leave her without a nipple... any tips on sterilization and procedure that i can relay to her?
Body piercings aren't done with a solid needle. They're done with a hollow needle so they take out a cookie cutter like punch of skin. This prevents excessive scar tissue. She should use one of these needles, but it will be hard to find. I would say to go to a piercer becuase they know about all the nerves/vessels that run through the nips that you don't want to jam apiece of metal through. If she must do it herself, tell her to check out bmezine.com. They've got a faq sheet for self piercings(though they don't recommend it) Peace
My wife has checked into it and I have to agree with the other. It would be tremendous to do it yourself and require alot of strength and willpower. A professional would do it in a second, in and out, baddabing, lay the cash down and clean, clean, for about 6 months to a year, especiaaly after sex (sweat and saliva). I am pierced several times over, some of which are intimate as well as my wife. We should know. Just wanna help, PM me if you need!
6 months to a year is amaximum, I was healed in 3 weeks. using epsom salts soaking it daily with warm water.
