my horrific story =(
It had been about 6 months since I've wanted to get my lip pierced and here is
the story...
Ok well here is my story about my horrible lip piercing. The
day started out by my mom asking me if I wanted to go to the city with her
and her boyfriend so I'm like sure. We go to the village and I'm thinking to
myself; I had my tongue pierced around here why not bug mom to get my lip
pierced.
We went into the village because it was the area where my mom
needed to do her work, and I was thinking maybe I should ask my mom about to
get my lip pierced, so I ask her and she is like NO! So her boyfriend and me
go across the street to look in a tattoo/piercing shop and we look around at
tattoo designs and piercings, and keep walking around the village and we are
near the place where I had gotten my tongue pierced. So I'm like mom can I
PLEASE get my lip pierced? And she is like NO! And her boyfriend is like go
take a walk and let me talk to your mom. 5 minutes later I walk back and he
is like come-on lets do it, but you have to get a stud. So we walk in and I'm
like I want get my lip pierced and he gives me a sheet to fill out, I fill it
out the guy comes out and says you ready? (I'm really excited because I've
wanted this piercing for a really long time.) I walk in and sit in the
infamous "dentist" chair, and he straps a bib on me and takes out a marker
and dots where I wanted it done and let's me check it in a mirror, gives me
some Listerine and tells me to swish around for 20 seconds, he pulls out the
clamps makes sure its over the dots, then he has the needle out and is like
alright take a deep breath in and exhale; wham its threw, then he puts the
hoop in and puts the ball on and gives me more Listerine to swish around, we
walk out he gives me a care sheet and tells to clean the outside with bactine
twice a day and use Listerine after eating, smoking, drinking. I walk out and
there are 2 people waiting to get pierced and I show them my new lip
ring.
This is just the beginning...
Then my mom's boyfriend sees it
and says HOLY SHIT you were supposed to get a stud because your mom will kill
me. (My mom wanted the stud because I had to go to court with her in a week
for a custody battle or something. And she didn't want the judge to give
custody of me to my grandma) (I was only 15 when I got it done). I was just
so dam excited I forgot that I was supposed to get a stud. Mario goes back
into the little room and gets his stuff together comes out and asks if I'm
ready. I go back and sit down in the infamous "dentist" chair, he takes out
the hoop and has some KY jelly and puts that over the holes and try's to put
the needle through the back hole like five to six times. (Yes it was painful)
When he finally got it through my lip was numb and my chin was all bloody (I
wanted to walk out with the blood all over my chin, but for safety reasons it
wouldn't happen) he cleaned my chin off showed me a mirror and I was like
thank you sooo much. I walked out and had my mom's boyfriend paid for it, and
we walk out. I show my mom and she isn't that happy but what can she do?
2-3 days after I had that done I switched it back to the hoop and then I had problems from there on, the back of my lip was getting cut up and I couldn't stop playing with it, so like 2 weeks after having it I decide to take it out and let it close up and just get it re-done. Then about 2-3 weeks later I get some money together and take the train into the city and get my lip re-pierced. Now it's all healed and I love the thing except when I stick my tongue out my tongue rings clank to it but o-well. When I can get more money I want to get a glow in the dark spike stud for my lip. Well that's my horrible lip piercing experience, and the most painful piercing I have. If you have any questions feel free to e-mail me.
