Double vertical nipple piercing

I should really start by saying that I absolutely love body modification, and get the urge to have something new every few months at least! I already have snakebites, nose, stretched lobes and cartilage and navel pierced, as well as four tattoos which include a sleeve in progress.

For the last few months I've been toying with the idea of getting venoms, but as I am starting back at university in a few weeks, decided that maybe I should wait to get them at a more appropriate time when I won't have to be articulate for a while!!

Then today I was browsing BME looking at nipple piercings, and I remembered that last year I had really wanted to get mine done, but my ex didn't like the idea so I had forced it out of my mind...well, now I am single, and I can do what I want!

I have never really been confident about my breasts, and I thought that maybe if they were pierced I would feel more comfortable about showing them, especially as I love them pierced on other people. There was also of course the fact that I have heard that it can increase sensitivity!

So, this afternoon I was online and said to a friend, who is also into mods, that I wanted to get them done. She asked me when, and when I replied "Now!" she said she would come and get me and take me into Falmouth to my tattooist.

When we got there however, he was fully booked, and I was so hyped up that I just said I would go to Truro as my friend's tattooist had said he had time.

When we got there, we were greeted with huge smiles from the staff and we chatted for a while whilst Carl, the artist, set up the bench and instruments.

I have to say, I absolutely love my own tattooist, and was nervous about going to someone else for my first piercing in over two years, but I was instantly put at ease with Carl's relaxed manner, he was really funny and we joked about how attractive we both found pierced nipples!

So. I sat down on the bench, and was told to "whip my vest off", meanwhile I had realised that I didn't have enough money one me. He said he would do them for less as he knew my friend which was great, so it was only Ј35.

As he marked me up I felt no self consciousness at all, as he was so professional, although I did remark on the fact that I was a bit naked! Once I had a look and decided the placing was perfect, I lay down and he cleaned the area and clamped up my left nipple. I had already decided to have them done vertically, just because I think it looks nicer, and I have quite small nipples and I thought it would compliment them a bit more. I have heard a lot of times that the clamps are painful but it wasn't at all. Of course the needle hurt but only for a second or so, and when I looked down I giggled at the needle just sitting in my boob! The barbell hurt a wee bit as it went through, but he was onto the right so fast that I didn't really have enough time to think about it.

Once both were in I sat up, looked in the mirror to check them, and immediately fell in love! they looked so perfect, and I was happy with my breasts for the first time in ages. I wasn't dizzy or anything so I walked to the ATM and got the extra tenner out, and after a promise I would be back to get my tongue done at some point, we left; me clutching my chest to stop being bounced by the car!

The only pain I have had since was a bit of stinging for a couple of hours but now, two and a half hours (and a pint) later I can hardly feel them. I cleaned a tiny bit of blood off when I got home before nipple jewelry shield I showed my mum, who was, as always, ok with it, despite rolling her eyes, and I can't stop looking at them in the mirror!!

I'm not too worried about the healing process; I am used to looking after piercings and I am hoping that as long as I do everything right these will be fine. So worth it anyway!

If you're thinking about getting your nipples pierced, I say go for it. Yes, it hurts, but so do most piercings and I must say this was much easier then my lips. A few seconds of pain, but for so much pleasure!
