I knew that sooner or later I would take the plunge and start getting genital piercings. Ascetically they appealed to me and of course they are also among the most "functional" of the piercings. The fact they are also hidden was a definite plus. I talked to a couple other girls about their genital piercing experiences but I somehow never talked to one with a vertical hood, instead they have labia or horizontal hoods. I checked Dogstar's prices and started saving money. Genital piercings tend to be a little expensive but there was no way in hell I was going to sacrifice quality just to go to someone with cheaper prices.

A couple weeks later I arranged a car pool and called to make loose appointment with T. When the morning of the piercing arrived I trimmed my public hair in preparation. I don't like shaving and for hood piercings it not necessary but I figured at least trimming would be courteous. I got dressed, being sure to wear a loose pair of jeans and cotton underwear, and waited to be picked up.
When we arrived I talked to T about what I wanted. I preferred to be pierced with 12 or 10 gauge curved barbell but they didn't have any short enough at the time so I agreed to a CBR. I really wasn't sure which gauge to go with still, I intended to stretch it but my hood was a bit small. After telling her this we decided to go with 12 gauge. She went back to set up the piercing room and I was called back in a few minutes. She had a tray set up with the CBR, needle, receiving tube, ring openers, and ring closers all still in there autoclave packets along with antiseptic wash, lube, q-tips, a box of gloves, a mirror, a flashlight, a flesh marker and who knows what else I'm forgetting.
I began to strip even before the room door was closed (I guess that shows how modest I am) and I hopped up onto the table that had been covered in a layer of paper. T had some of those paper garments doctors have incase I wanted to cover up but I declined them. She instructed me to slide down and put my feet on the corners of the table. I did this but the position was a bit weird and I was afraid I would fall off (I have before.) I told her this and she said the table did have stirrups if I wanted to use them. I jumped at the opportunity and asked why I wasn't using them to start with. T said that nearly all girls hate them so she doesn't even offer most of the time, but that honestly it was easier to pierce when they were used so she was happy I wanted them.
I put my feet in the stirrups as she changed gloves. First she cleaned me with the antiseptic then did the q-tip test. She told me a bit about my anatomy. My hood was small, but piercable (glad I said to go with 12 gauge) but she went on to say I was not suited for a horizontal hood, triangle, or any other related hood or clit piercings, just in case I was wondering. Next she took the flashlight and checked for veins. She spent quite some time doing this. I think I was cleaned again (I really don't remember at this point) and she marked my hood. She asked if I wanted to check the placement and I was handed a mirror. I would have liked it a little higher but knew that it was impossible with my anatomy so I said to go a head.
She warned me that inserting the receiving tube was going to be uncomfortable, especially with me since it was going to have to stretch my hood some. She changed gloves and lubed up the receiving tube. I remember thinking it looked absolutely huge and doubted for a moment that it could even be used. Somehow it was. The insertion was very uncomfortable and even a bit painful. I consider it the worse part of the entire procedure. Once it was in place she said she was ready to pierce and that she wanted me to take two deep breaths and she would pierce on the second exhale. The needle sting was shape but subsided very quickly. By the time she inserted and closed the CBR it was nothing more than a dull ache. I carefully got dressed and left the room. I paid, tipped, and was given my aftercare instructions.
Walking felt very odd the first day. I was very aware of the alien weight hanging from my hood. The process of sitting down (but not actually continuing to sit down) and climbing stairs felt incredibly odd. While there was no blood immediately after the piercing it seeped a bit a few hours later and I cleaned it off with a sea salt soak.
That night when I showered I was in for a surprise. The CBR channeled the water and actually brought me to orgasm. Then after about three days when I was accustomed to the weight walking went from being odd feeling to being good feeling. Very good feeling, though it never brought me to orgasm, it nearly did many times. After about two weeks, however, both of these effects had worn off and showering and walking were once again normal.
The piercing has improved sex. It allows me to reach orgasm much more quickly than before, although the quality of the orgasms themselves has remained the same. I enjoy my piercing and will begin stretching it soon. I would recommend it to any women interested.
