So basically, this is the story of how I got my nipples pierced. Well first, some slight background information. I was engaged for 8 months, and it didn't work out. My now ex-fiancé refused the ring when I tried to give it back, which left me with an absolutely gorgeous ring, that held little monetary value due to my extreme dislike of diamonds. In September I started apprenticing at a body piercing/tattooing clinic called Creative Body Art Clinic, in Windsor. I've been wanting to get my nipples pierced since I was about 14, and everyone knew it. I basically started asking everyone for cash for my birthday, so that I'd have enough to get it done, and maybe even enough to get my tattoo fixed, as well. But I knew that was a bust. I started talking to Risa, my boss, about my engagement ring, and she asked me to bring it in so that she could see it, and would even consider buying it from me for her daughter.

So I brought it in, and Risa wanted to bargain. I wanted a minimum of $70 for the ring, that's about half of what Jay paid for it, but she didn't want to pay that much, so she asked me what I was going to spend the money on. When I told her I wanted to use it for nipple piercings, we agreed on a straight barter: my engagement ring for nipple piercings. But she wanted to pierce me right now, because it was the beginning of the day when customers would be slow in coming, so I wouldn't be interrupting her business.
Now, the shop is generally freezing cold, and I'm generally all bundled up in a sweater, so when I had to strip to the waist, my teeth were chattering. My nipples, due to the cold room, could probably have pierced each other, they were so hard. Risa got her supplies ready, GodSmack playing in the background as she readied the needle and pulled out the forceps. She looked at my nipples, mentally calculating the correct diameter for the CBR she was going to use. I asked her if it would hurt, and she said "yeah," but she continued on, saying that it wasn't as bad as I was thinking it was going to be.
She clamped my nipple. I barely felt it, I really didn't have much sensitivity in my nipples, it was the reason I'd wanted to get them pierced in the first place. She leveled the needle next to my flesh, lining up. I looked up at the ceiling. I felt it go through the first layer of delicate skin with sliding ease, the pain quickly increasing as it passed through the center of my nipple and out the other side. The clamps came off and Risa grabbed the ring, opened and ready to insert. The insertion went through without any hitches, but the ball gave Risa a hard time, because her gloves kept slipping. She finally gave up on that and got ready to pierce my right nipple.
She clamped me, and this time it pinched a little bit. She leveled the needle and once again, I looked up at the ceiling. She pushed the needle through, and it seemed to go though much slower this time, as I had enough time to say, "ow...ow...ow". The right hurt much more than the left, but of course any piercing would hurt more when there's something else throbbing in pain. She grabbed the other ring and once again inserted it with no problems, this time the ball went on just as easily. She grabbed the ball for the other ring that she'd had trouble with before, and this time it went in no problem.
After the bleeding was mostly stopped, she took a tongue depressor and used it to coat my nipples in polysporin, so that when I removed the gauze later on, it wouldn't be stuck to my breast. Then she told me that when I put my bra back on, I should pull my breast up as high in it as possible, because a lot of times it isn't the piercing t causes pain afterward, but the weight of the rings dangling from my chest when my skin isn't used to the load. I did as she asked, and I felt an almost immediate rush of relief. Throughout the day I could feel the weight of the metal against my areola, and it simultaneously excited me and made me feel and made me feel like a slave.
When I got home, I took a shower and put on my night shirt, sans bra. My nipples were at that point so sensitive that just the feeling of the material brushing over them was turning me on. However, after a little while, they started to hurt, so I put a bra back on.
I've been following the aftercare exactly, and my nipples have begun to heal quite nicely. However, sometimes if I go to bed without a bra, I tug on the rings and my nipples hurt in the morning. All in all I love my new piercings, I'd like to keep them for a very long time.
