OK I will start from the beginning, I was at home supposed to be studying for my exams and as you do I got bored. I went into the kitchen and my brother was there so for no apparent reason I decided that I would pierce my eyebrow with a sewing needle. It looked shit so I took it out but my bro thought it would be a cool idea for me to get large gauge nipples done. Don't ask me why he thought this he just did. I wasn't too sure because a few of my friends had already had theirs done and I didn't want to be seen as just following them. A few days later I was actually considering it, if I did get both done because they all only had, with bigger rings and stretch them up later it would be different to theirs. Only one of them had had theirs done professionally and his was one of the only good looking ones, the others were to shallow and didn't look good, so I decided to get mine done properly. I told my parents, my mum thought I was joking and my dad just laughed, they didn't sa y no so that was a good sign. Most people had mixed opinions on this decisions, some thought it would be sick others reckoned two wouldn't look as good. Luckily I could make up my own mind and I was going to go for the two
At A Glance Author Rob Contact madball357@hotmail.com When A week ago Artist Fi Studio Steel Candy Location Subiaco, Western Australia The next time I was in the city I went and had a look at some piercing places, the first place I went into was steel candy. The place looked sweet and the chick that was in there was awesome. She showed me all the selection of rings and the needles they use for the piercing. All the other places I went into gave me a piece of paper with prices on it so I knew where I was going to get it done. I went into steel candy again and talked about some rings. I wanted circular barbels 12gauge so they had to order them in because they didn't have any in the store. I was sitting next to the phone for the next week or so. When she rang and said she had the rings I was so stoked we arranged to get the piercing in later that day.
When I went into the place I did the usual, fill out the forms and everything, then they took me into the piercing room and the fun started. The girl that was going to do it was called Fi, she started by marking out where she was going to do the piercing. I lay down on the bed when she was done with the marking and she clamped my right nipple. She told me to take a deep breath and when I breathed out she put the needle through. Now I am not one of those guys that get off on pain or anything but I have to say it was one of the coolest sensations ever. I could feel it ripping my skin, this might sound weird but if you have got them done you'll know what I am talking about. When she had the ring on I got up and had a look at it in the mirror it couldn't have looked and cooler. When I was done looking at it I asked if we were going to do the other one now, they asked if I wanted a break but I wanted to get straight back into it. I got them to prop the head of the bed up so that I could watch them do the second one, it looks nearly as cool as it feels.
When she had finished all the piercing she cleaned them up and got all the blood off. At this point my mum knocked on the door of the studio and came in. Surprisingly she was stoked, her and Fi ended up getting on really well they even swapped names of hairdressers. My mum wanted a photo of me with Fi so a few were taken and everyone was happy.
So I was done, all pierced up and ready to roll, they went through the basic after care and cleaning and all that stuff. The main thing that I was worried about as most people would have been was the pain but it wasn't that bad. Not trying to sound all macho or anything, it does hurt but I was imagining this unbearably pain and it wasn't that bad and only lasted for about 2 seconds. I suggest that if you don't have your nipples pierced and you are thinking about it go for it, it is a great experience. I can't wait to see what I do next.
