Nipple Piercing Questions

CraigS · 06-07-2006, 21:27

I plan to get my nipple pierced next week. I am going to get one nipple pierced, if it is a single piercing what nipple is it supposed to be in? For example traditionally you would get your left ear pierced singley. Approx how much would it cost? Thanks Any advice and past experiences are welcome. I'm doing my research.

Sup to you which nip gets the steel.

Just don't embarrass yourself like I did when I had my belly button pierced - normal people faint, pass out, that sort of thing. But no, not our Russ.

I went blind for 10 minutes.

Beat that.

I'm still trying to get my head round the concept that which nipple is pierced first has a tradition behind it.

I was going to get a Prince Albert but that would hurt far tooooo much

Interesting. Did they explain why? Some sort of traumatic response to pain?? Where's Salu?

I think you're all mad

It's my worst nightmare - a bloke with piercings. You can't relax for fear of accidentally pulling something off, no pun intended.

sorry, why?

when I lived in Kenya, there was lots of 'body art' on show

the extremes a simple ear lobe can extend to, you wouldn't believe - it isn't worth even trying to compete, in my opinion

Honestly, save yourself the pain & the risk of infection & maintain your body as it was supplied

Yup, nothing worse than scarring from body piercings.

Complete waste of money along with tattoos but if you do want the chavvy look.

I didn't want to watch her putting the ring in my belly button so I closed my eyes and asked her to move me in front of the mirror once it was all done, the plan was I'd then open my eyes and see my reflection.

Well ok, it went that far but my body then went in to shock as my brain realised there was a piece of metal stuck in me. I immediately lost my sight and it finally returned 10 minutes later. Apparently the shock made my blood sugar level drop.

I can look back and laugh now of course...

I had my left one done first then the right one the next day (music festival, much alcohol involved...) I don't think there is any real 'supposed' nipple just whatever one feels right.
I would go for the bar initially as it is far easier to keep clean then a ring. The only downside for the bar is it shows up far easier under shirts.

It cost about ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£30 a shot. Overall the nipples didn't hurt that much (they were piercings 3 and 4 for me). The endorphin rush kicked in a lot quicker than the other 2.

I have had to take mine out now

but if I could get them done again I would.

And now Russ has shared his experiences I'm not the only guy I know with a belly button ring.

I might be sad but it's interesting stuff is this

I wouldn't expect your blood sugar to drop. In shock, blood supply to the extremities is reduced, in favour of the body core (the organs). I'd expect a rise in blood sugar to provide energy - perhaps if you need to leg it, sharpish. Only twice in my life have I come close to passing out - when the toenails were being ripped out, and when I stood up after a stop of heavy duty liquid nitrogen treatment. I wonder if you had some sort of innate injury response. Again, where's Salu

I hope pics will be posted of the piercing

All forms of body mutilation make me cringe. I think it's the thought of having it ripped out accidentaly the worst. I get really angry when I see you girls with their ears pierced. IMO it should be illegal on minors too.

Like homealone says, the body is a wonderful thing - why abuse it?

Fair play to you for having the courage to go through with it....But I have to ask WHY ? Did you do it becuase you really wanted a ring there or as a dare / for charity, etc ?

As for this Prince Albert thing.... I can think of nothing worse.
It is way toooo sensivie down there to put anything metal IMO.
