I had been wanting a Vertical Clitoral Hood piercing for several years now. But I was afraid of what people would think(I know, They can't see it unless I show them so who cares) and had heard so many bad stories about those kind of piercings. Like loss of sensation etc. After researching on the web and looking at any pictures I could find, I finally got up the courage to go ahead and do it. My husband was really shocked as I had never really told him about my thoughts on the subject. He actually was scared to go with me so he made my best friend go with me. It was kinda funny. He said he just couldn't watch me punch a hole in his "special girl". I think he just didn't want to watch another man touching me there! Ha! Ha!
At A Glance Author sabrah1033 Contact sabrah1033@bme.anon When A month ago Artist Brian Studio Halo Piercing Location Tucson, AZ I went to Halo here in Tucson because they are extremely clean and Brian has been my piercer for almost 10 years now.(I have had my nostril, navel(several times), and tongue)And I have had several friends that go to him for their piercings. So I knew that he was very experienced. That really helped me to not be so nervous. This time I didn't feel the same as my previous piercings. I was nervous but didn't have the butterflies or the "Oh My G-d! I can't believe I am actually doing this!" feeling.
First he had me go to the bathroom with a little towelette to wipe off with. He then told me to either remove my pants and underwear or pull them off of my right leg. Then he had me sit on the chair(think dentist's chair) and leave my feet dangling off the sides. He was very gentle and cleaned the area again while trying to decide if my anatomy would allow a VCH. He checked by using a receiving tube and placing it under my hood. After determining that there was enough tissue there he got out the fresh needle(everything had been sterilized and was in sealed packages)and told me to take deep breaths in through my nose and out through my mouth.
He had to stretch the tissue very taught across the tube which was very uncomfortable. I actually thought that he had already done the piercing and was thinking to myself how it wasn't so bad after all! Then came the very quick, blinding pain. I clamped my legs against the chair and let out a very loud "YOW!" Then the pain was gone. Completely gone. Not tender, not sharp, not numb. Just normal feeling. He apologized for surprising me with that. He had meant to tell me what was going on step by step and when it came time to pierce the skin he just did it. I am glad he did though. I hate anticipation! Just makes me more scared.
I asked my best friend if she wanted to see and from across the room she said she could see it! She actually said it looked pretty. I thought she would be pretty grossed out or embarrassed. I was so excited about the thought of my vagina looking so pretty! And I felt so extremely naughty and turned on by the thought of being pierced there. I couldn't wait to get home and show my hubby!
For the first week I felt bruised. Like I had been riding a bicycle and fell forward and racked myself on the bar. And I kept forgetting it was there and I would wipe to roughly after urinating. That would send me through the roof with sharp pain! But other than that I had no problems. Except that masturbation with my bullet was not fun. It was loud( I have 2 small kids and paper thin walls! Can you imagine your 3 and 5 year old's knocking on the door? "Mommy? What are you doing? Talk about ruining the mood!) and the vibrations hurt!
Hubby and I had played around a little bit but I ended up not having so much fun. It was still so tender! We started out missionary and that wasn't too bad as long as he wasn't banging into me too hard. But I had really wanted to try being on top to see how it felt rubbing up against my clit. It was not fun.
Now, just over a month later, and I am still tender. It doesn't seem to do me any good sexually. I still love the idea of my VCH and it's a real turn-on but actual, physical contact doesn't feel good. I can walk around all day and not really notice it's there. No pain. But if I use the shower head to rinse off down there and the water catches the top ball just right it really sends me a zing!
I am going to keep it for a 3-4 more months to see if maybe it's just still not healed completely. And if I still have trouble then I will make the decision to take it out or not. We'll see.
