Next time I get a bright idea like "I want my linguil Frenum (toungue web) piercing." I am soooo going to think again. I have now had this piercing for just under a week. It was the most painful experience of my entire life. And completely worth it.

My good mate and body piercer luke, performed my piercing as a training piercing. Oh what I let myself in for. After lying on that godforsaken table for an hour, and having Sarah holding my jaw open, luke trying to pierce me and Mark mopping up my oh so salvic mouth. It's an experience I'll never forget.

The best part about piercing, I've always thought,
is the second before you lie down on the piercing table, and thats when you comit yourself to the piercing. That when you say to yourself, thats it, I'm getting pierced. The main influence on my piercing habits, was my best mate. Who, being very into piercing, came with me for my first. Now as I lay to get my next, that was when I knew I was commiting myself, to the aftercare of a new piercing and hopefully, a very unusual piercing.

As the clamps went on, and I almost screamed in pain, I was asked, "do you still want to do this?" Well, I'd gotton this far, I'd had the jewelery all cleaned and prepared for me. And the clamps were on, all I had to do was sit back, and Trust in Luke. Which I did, so I nodded, and did my best to convey with my toungue clamped "just flaming hurry up, this is very painful."

The clamps are the most painful thing about this piercing, oh, and simultaniously wanting to swallow with these clamps on doesn't help.

Once the needle was through, it was plain sailing from there. unfortunatly, the swallowing problem kept repeating itself again and again, and I nearly ended up lasserating my gums, with my persistant dribbling.

My biggest regret about my piercing is that i wanted it to be over so badly, and I kept moving so much, is that it's ended up being slightly wonky. Which is all my own fault. Advice for people having this done: Keep the hell still!!!

I think the person with the biggest regret about my piercing is my mate who volunteered to hold my hand during the proceedure. After turning his hand purple and neraly breaking his fingers, he has now firmly stated he will never hold my hand during another piercing again.

I would only recommend this piercing to poeple who can handle having to go through vast amounts of pain. And who have the patience to keep up with the aftrecare. As I think my piercing might already be on its way out.

I can't stress this enough for people; Take very good care of your piercing!!! I have already been very drunk with my piercing at least three times, and it's not even been a week yet. Which is such a big no no, it's unbeleievable. And I already can't be bothered to clean my mouth out with mouth wash after I eat, drink and smoke, err, substances.

I think this may be contributing to the rejection of my piercing. Although, more the fool me, who would go and get it done again if it does reject. At least if I went and had it done again, I would know what I was letting myself in for. And not only mkae sure that my friend was there to hold my hand, I would make luke, duck-tape my head to the piercing table, in order to keep it still.

Best advantages for having your piercing done as a training piercing: I prodivded the jewelerly, which was given to me from my friend from his labium frenum piercing and it made my piercing low to cost of ridiculas, and I got done very cheaply. Also I got a great big hug and thanks from Luke, as he really apprichiated me being willing to lie back and allow it to be done to myself.

Worst moments for having your piercing done as a training piercing: Having to listen to Mark talk about all the thing that could go wrong if it could. for example, lying back with yout mouth open and a clamp wrapped around a very small and painful piece of membrane then hearing the words "and if you drop the needle, you could lasserate all the inside of her cheek and her gums." Is not the best situation to calm you down. But as It was pointed out to me, I shouldn't be in for a training piercing, if I couldn't handle hearing Mark talk like that.

Thanks to all my piercings, (I am now on my fourth 'real' piercing), I have now been cured of my irrational fear of needles. Wereas previously, I couldn't be in the same room as a needle, I now frighten my parents when they hear me talk about a new piercing I saw on someone which I thought was cool.
