How to get my nipples pierced.
How I did it: i've always wanted to do it so decided that i would as a thirtieth birthday present to myself. i heard good things about a shop in town and took the girl i was dating at the time because she has had a lot of piercings done and i trusted her to to help me through the process. after i talked to the piercers and decided on size and jewelry style, the girl i went with held my hand and i just went for it!
Lessons & tips: i recommend going to a shop that had two piercers so you can get both sides done at the same time. it was recommended to be by the piercers at the shop because they prefer doing it that way and i'm so glad i did. i might not have gotten the second one if i had done them one at a time!
also make sure you warn people before they hug you. i got them done the same day as my birthday party and spent a lot of the evening wincing every time someone hugged me because they didn't know i had just had them done.
use sea salt to clean them and not chemicals. it helps facilitate the healing process and is just better for the piercings. clean them everyday!
as much as your lover and you might want to play with them right away, give them time to heal!
