At A Glance Author crazyone Contact fu_eddie80@hotmail.com When Three months ago Artist rob Studio beyond reality Location Mt. clemens, MI Ok, I used to tattoo in a flea market,where there were other tattoo shop's.We all got along and even shared tips and ideas with each other.I had been thinking about getting my nipples done for some time now-to be honest,my girl-friend had them,and I like them so I thought "why not me??".
Well one day I was working and was joking about it with Don,a friend from another shop,and he said "come on..I'll talk to Rob"(his boss),well he told Rob what I was thinking about,and before I knew it,I was sitting in a chair while Rob(again the boss)was getting set up.
There were two ladies with a friend who was getting a tattoo.They asked what I was getting and I told them I was getting my nipples done,and of course they both squirmed(haha),but they asked if they could watch,I said that would be fine,so they stood and ask questions.
Rob came back with his "tools" sat down.As he was taking everything out of the packaging I took my shirt off and sat up.Both women moved so they could watch,and see what was being done.
Rob told me the basic care for my new piercings and some helpful ideas to make sure they heal fast and safe.
As he put his gloves on he positioned himself so that he was comfortable and could get the pirecing's stright.
First he took a pen and made a mark on each nipple,and told me to relax.I was getting a little nervous ,and it felt like my heart was going to beat out of my chest.Finally I asked,putting my male ego aside,how bad this was going to hurt.Laughing he said "more then alittle and less then alot".
So with that I tried to relax and he leaned over,clamped my left nipple-telling me that the clamp would help numb my nipple alittle.Hey every little helps,right?
Both women took a breath as he leaned over with the needle and told me to take a deep breath and relax.
As he stuck the needle in I felt a pop and it felt like my body had heated up 300 degrees,sweat started to pour down me.He took the clamp off and put it down.
I opened my eyes and he(Rob) told me I could sit for a minute and relax and to tell him when and if I wanted to get the other side done.
I sat back and looked at the two ladies that wanted to watching this whole thing go down,they were looking the other way and did not even know that the needle was through and sitting in my nipple waiting for the ring to go through.Finally I told them that the needle was through,they both stepped closer and saw they needle half in/half out through my nipple and said "oh my god",that brought a smile to my face real fast.
After I got the color in my face back I told him to go ahead,and lets do the other one.
Again I sat back up,and he told me to relax and breath in.This time he asked the two women watching if they were going to watch-with a smile.Neither of them answer real quick,still in shock I guess.
Rob open a new clamp and placed it on my right nipple this time and looked at me.I nodded at him(Rob)to let him know to go ahead.He leaned forward and in one shift stroke he pushed the needle half way through my right nipple,I wanted to jump up and scream,but I knew better.Then he took off the clamp on my right nipple.
So now I'am sitting there with a needle through both nipples and feeling like I was on fire.I asked him how long was it going to burn like this,and smiling he told me for up to an hour or two,so long as I didn't hit it or rub it real hard on anything.
Both the ladies just stood there asking me what it felt like.I really had a hard time explaining it though,it just unlike any pain or tattoo I've ever had or gotten.
Once I was ready Rob told me to lean back while he put the jewerly that was lubbed in,he told me that helps it slide in alittle better.It hurt alittle as he pulled the needle out and placed the rings in but after-wards I looked at my new pirecings and remeber thinking how cool they looked and I was glad I did it.
There was alot of pain,even if it was for a short time,but I look at them now and I'am glad I got them and most of all I was pireced by someone that I trusted and I knew how they ran their shop.So that put alot of ease to my mind.I hope you enjoy this,and if you have any questions feel free to write and ask.
