Another surface piercing experience
I’ve been piercing for about three years, and have discovered most people only want you to give them a piercing if you can tell them you’ve done “lots” of that exact piercing before on other people. That makes a lot of since from the point of the person getting pierced, however makes it hard for a newer piercer to learn the more unique procedures. A lot of piercers probably have wives/girlfriends willing to get practiced on, but in my case my wife hates pain and is not a huge piercing fan. Also practicing on ones self can only go so far, such as in this case, anything on the back is out of the question.
The last piercing I had done was my VCH nearly a year ago, and I seem to remember vowing never to have another one again! (Many people say VCHs don’t hurt a bit - I can only wish I had their pain-immune anatomy!) Ever since getting that last piercing I’d been bandying around the idea of having an anti-eyebrow or madison done, but hadn’t bitten the bullet on either of them. It was mainly the almost inevitable rejection of both piercings that put me off - paying for a piercing and ending up with only a scar as a memory wasn’t my cup of tea.
I’ve been interested in micro-dermals for a while now, I am part of a forum on the bodyjewelleryshop site in the UK and had been hearing a lot about them, so I started looking on BME and other sites to read up about them. I decided I must have one but, didn’t really actively do anything about it.
I have to say BME is brilliant for getting information and pictures about piercing and tattoos.
I’ve been going to Tattoo Inc for a couple of years now, and Hayley has done all my piercings. She mentioned she was starting to do
Originally, I was interested in getting this piercing as I was always curious about surface piercings and always found myself imagining myself with one and how it would feel being done.
Of course I was really nervous, as before I’ve only experienced pretty mediocre piercings such as my monroe and navel and I had no idea what this would feel like. As I didn’t want to
rush in and make a mistake, I researched the ins and outs of this piercing thoroughly, as well as asking people who had it done for their personal opinions and advice.
