I have been wanting to get my nipples pierced for a while now, but was pretty chicken about getting it done. I have my belly button pierced and that experience wasn't the best. When I had that done, the piercer did not do it correctly and I have experienced a lot of problems with it. Not to mention it hurt like hell when it healed. So having that past experience, I was a little hesitant.

He had actually had it pierced twice (the first one get pulled out) and said it hurt like hell. So, me being the chicken that I am this also made me hesitant on getting it done. I am not one that is good with pain. I am one of those people who can't stand getting a shot due to the pain. So hearing this about getting nipples done really scared me.
I still really wanted to get it done. I was telling my friends this hoping someone else would go with me and experience a piercing with me too. So, one of my male friends decided he wanted to get a piercing. I was like awesome!!! Me too!! So my friend decided he wanted to get one of his nipples pierced. So, I was like how weird because that is what I have wanted to get done for so long. I figured if I went with someone else who was gonna get pierced too then I wouldn't been a wimp to get it done. I did lots of research online and came here to read all the stories about people getting it done and seeing actual nipple piercings on females really helped me. It helped me decide that the pain couldn't be that bad and not to mention the aftermath of it is so damn sexy. So, I decided I was gonna get one done.
I told my husband what I wanted to do and he was all for it. He was like why don't you get both of them done. So, I started to think about it and having read so many stories about people who have had one done and planned on getting another one done, I figured, what the hell. I will get them both done.
My friend whom was going with me to get this done, he decided as well to get both of his done too. So, off we went to River City Tattoo. There was a lot of people there and of course they all wanted piercings. So, we filled out our form and said what we wanted and waited. I was really excited about getting it done. The anticipation was killing me while I was waiting. My friend however, was a little more nervous as he had never had a piercing before and didn't know what to expect.
So, Jessika called me back and off I went. She had me stand up and used a marker to dot on my nipple to know where she was gonna pierce. I still wasn't nervous, but really excited. So, I laid down and she clamped up my left nipple. She told me to take a breath and breathe out, take another breath and breathe out and then she said she was gonna do it on the next one, so in I breathed and Bam, the needle went right through. I was like, that wasn't bad at all. But, I was more worried about the other nipple getting done as I have read stories about how the second one really hurts. So, we did the same procedure, breathed in and out and Bam in it went.
Honestly, it didn't hurt worse than the first. And to be completely honest, it really didn't hurt at all. I was really surprised after having my belly button done and the pain that I experienced with that I thought this was gonna be much worse. It really was a piece of cake. And Jessika was the absolute best. She was the perfect piercer. She made you feel so comfortable.
It's only been a couple days since I had it done and it really hasn't hurt. It's a little sore but nothing that you can't bare. I mean, I can sleep on my chest and it doesn't hurt. For the ladies, wearing a bra during the day does make your chest feel a lot better. So, if you do get this done, the bra makes a huge difference while you are healing.
If anyone is thinking about getting this done, I would totally recommend it to anyone male or female to go for it!! It didn't hurt, honestly. And I am a weenie to pain!! Not too mention, it looks super hot!!!! :)
