I'm thinking about getting my nipple pierced with my friend...can anyone give me any info on it. Ladies, is it hard to wear bras, certain shirts, etc? does it hurt? does it show through clothing? I really know nothing about nipple piercings, but I'd really like one, so any info would rock.
I've been told over and over again that YES, it hurts like mad! I'm thinking seriously about getting my left one done... Pain doesn't bother me, but enough of it might annoy me. I probably won't be letting that stop me from getting it done. Post pics if you do; I'll do the same! Blue skies, -Jeffrey
i can not speak for every one but mine did not hurt... a little squeeze with the clamp and a quick poke and it was done... they healed nice in 5 weeks and i just followed the simple wash twice a day cleaning instructions the peircer gave me and now they feel wonderful.... my piercers name was Jordon and he was only 18 but he was gentle..... afterwards if your clean and wear a coton bra for awhile you will be fine too all smiles
I'm pretty sure I'm going to get it done at this point...my friend erik pierces and hes done nipples before...so yeah...by early june, it'll be pierced..I'm really really excited and I'll definitely post pics once its done
yes, it hurt like a mofo, but I'm a wimp about pain. I found it best to wear a padded bra for the first while - doesn't show anything and it protects against you bumping into stuff and irritating the piercings. They can take up to 8 months to heal though, just be warned... I got both done in Feb and one's healed while the other isn't (but I think that's due to a mild infection more than anything else). Just make sure you check out the place before you take off your shirt, that it looks clean and you aren't getting charged way too much (mine were on sale for $20 Canadian each with jewelry)
i was going to do my nipple my slef but it hurt alot so i stoped, i have a branding on my leg so its not like i cant handle pain
My nips hurt. Not unbearable, but definetly an "owe, mutherfucka that hurt" and then it happened to the other one. Healing was tender for a few days. Yes, you can see them through clothing if you're not wearing a bra. My GF has them and I can see them if its just a tshirt. Apparently, bras make it feel better though because they don't rub. peace
Just make sure your piercer knows enough about nipple anatomy and has done enough nipples on womyn to avoid the main milk tubules coming through the nipple. Most womyn can breastfeed after a nipple piercing with NO trouble, but a few have scar tissue, almost always from a piercer who didn't know his anatomy well enough, and did the piercing in the wrong place, or didn't use sterile precautions. You are too young to probably want babies now, but you may want them in the future, and you don't want to damage their right to the best food in the world. Just make sure your piercer is well trained, has done LOTS of nipples on girls and knows what to avoid and where to pierce to prevent damage. Good luck.
Yeah I've been looking up on the whole breastfeeding thing, and my piercer has done alot of nipples before. I'm a little worried about the pain because I'm a wimp, but I think I'll be alright eventually. One question though, that I was just thinking about today, for going on planes, do you think you'd have to take it out?
i love mine..you can check them out in my gallery..the only thing that sucks is when you shower and use one of those puff thingys...becareful or else..
i have a low tolerance to pain...and it didn't hurt for my piercings....the smaller your breast the more pain though....it also depends on how they are pierced...the second one hurt more
aww man..i have really small boobs..lol oh well..ill survive... that pic up there is exactly how i want it done...with the barbell wait..what little puff things for the shower?
I've got 12 piercings, 2 of them nipples and I have never set off the metal detector at the airport. Ever. Definitely go with the barbells, the healing will be easier and you wont be putting any unnecessary pressure on the piercing. And use shower poufs with caution. You know, the mesh puffs that come with body wash-they really like to hook onto the ends of barbells and it hurts like a bitch.
ahh well I'm a hand washing kinda girl....shower puffs always seemed unnecessary, but I'll pass along the word
i got mine done, both of them, and it hurt, one more then the other.. and i couldnt wear a bra afterwards, i was too sensitive. and then if you snag it on a towel from the shower..omg.. dont get rings, get bars.
i have both of mine done vertically, maybe it's becuase i got them done vertically but they fucking hurt, there was the initial pain and then a second pain for each nipple. he got the second needle stuck so that's probably why the second one hurt more... ughh bastard! it hurt so much. and i have my septum peirced and that's cartiledge.... it's definately different for everyone, i didn't wear a bra for a few days becuase i didn't feel like it, it was kinda painful to wear one, but then it became better to wear one, easier on the boobs and such. anyway you'll be able to judge this all for yourself and learn as you go along. good luck!
thanks everyone....its pretty much set for sometime in early june...I think I'm also gonna get my tounge pierced..which will be awesome...i just wanna see how reliable he is when it comes to tounge piercings
I got my right nipple pierced. It only hurt for a sec, hurt more the next few weeks. I little piece of advice. Dont let a guy/girl bite them to much. My bfriend ripped it right out of my boob. Hurt like u wouldnt believe and bled alot too.
