For three months, my friends and I decided that to celebrate the end of our Christmas exams this year, we would all go to get our nips pierced. I had my heart set on getting both done, while Mel and Meg decided to get Lefty done up. Well, let me say the December 5th couldn't have come any slower! I was done my one and only exam (Mel and Meg still had exams, but it was my idea so we went on the 5th...haha), and I was rip roarin' to go! We met up with Meg (she goes to a different university than Melanie and me) and of we went to Scotia to get our girls all prettied up!
At A Glance Author Spinelli Contact Spinelli@bme.anon When A week ago Artist Tim Studio Scotia Location Canada We walked in, and the desk guy was like "What's up girls? What are you lookin to get done today?", and I said (quite loudly I must admit...) "We're here to get our TITS pierced!". He laughed and told us to have a seat and that Tim would be there in a few. My adrenaline was PUMPING and I felt like I was gonna PUKE so bad! I was just so worked up that I didn't wanna wait for Tim! I wanted to get it over with as quickly as possible, I won't lie. So in comes Tim, and I felt all the colour leave my face. I couldn't believe I was acting like such a pussy! He told us to come in. We ALL went in together (plus our friend Ashley, who 'just wanted to see our boobs'...haha).
"So who's going first?" Tim asked as he sprayed the chair and cleaned everything up for us. I stepped up to the plate, shaking like a mo fo! He finished cleaning up and said "Okay, go ahead and make yourself uncomfortable" meaning, "Take off your shirt in front of me and three of your friends, and let us all see your tits..." LET me tell you I was soo embarrassed! I have no idea why, but I really was! But anyway, off came my shirt and he proceeded to mark the twins. I was shaking soooo bad I was sure everyone noticed...my poor legs wouldn't stay still! Then it was time to get to business.
I was instructed to lie down and the procedure would begin. I chose to get Lefty done first. He prepped her all up by cleaning her and then gave her a little pinch to wake her up. He doesn't use clamps (which made me feel TEN times better) so he took her between his thumb and forefinger and told me to take a deep breath, count to three, and IN SHE WENT! Oh....my....GOD was it ever painful. I could feel the needle going through every layer of my skin. And for some reason, my leg did this little twitchy thingy....haha I lifted my knee up, and if I went any further I woulda cracked him in the head with it. I thought I was gonna have to tell him to stop, but before I knew it, it was over. He put the bead on (we all got CBR's by the way) and wiped off my nip and it was time to move onto Righty. I took a few deep breaths and I was ready to go again. Or so I thought.
He did the same thing with Righty, wiping her down and giving a little wake-up pinch, and I took a deep breath. We counted to three and HOLY MOTHER F*CK! It hurt TEN TIMES MORE! My leg did the thingy again, and I thought I was gonna have to tell him to stop again! I am NOT at all impressed by my behaviour...I was SUCH a wimp! Anyway, he put the bead on and cleaned her up and VOILA I was done. I took a few before I sat up, and when I sat up, I immediately looked in the mirror at the twins! They looked so pretty! Mel and Meg and Ashley commented on how pale I looked, and told me that it looked pretty painful. I told them the truth and Tim goes "Yeah it must been a little bad, you've got really tough nipples..." and I said "Like leather?" We all gotta kick outta that...my friends all call me Leather Nips now. GRRRREAT! So anyway, I was quite pleased. I got dressed again and sat there with this huge ACHING in my tits while Meg and Mel got theirs done. We left that day in HUGE pa in...and the desk guy and a few other guys were laughing and said "Ladies, lookin a little pale....how did it go?" and we were all like "Try getting your nips done!"
But that's not it. What I didn't notice was that Lefty was a little on the crooked side. She's done less deep than Righty, and a little to an angle. There's a bump on my nipple (a natural one) which I think was the cause for the awkward angle. So I kept her in for about a week and went to visit Tim again to see that he would do about it. I was told to take it out immediately and let it heal for about three months or so. Then I could come back and get it done again to match Righty. I took her out last night and nearly cried. I didn't think I would be so attached to a piercing, but indeed I was! Righty is healing up really nicely though, so I'm glad that I still have her. And they both only really hurt for about a day. I took some ibuprofen and it worked wonders. But anyway, I can't wait to go reunite the twins! I'm counting down the days!
