SitraAchra - my lobes are at a size where they will not return to 'normal' - once you get above 8mm / 0ga on most people, they will remain as holes. Prince Alberts don't hurt. Its just a little prick (BOOM! BOOM!) and then its done...I need to get myself booked in for my second one. Acron^ - scar tissue can be repierced easily...it will be a bit tougher to pierce through than the first time but it can be done. Need to get my other 3 beads too Like I said, PAs don't hurt...beads don't really hurt either...it is just a bit more intense. *n
Beads? Like pearling, where they insert pearls under the skin? I've seen pictures and read the history that it came from the Yakuza, but have yet to meet someone with them. If this is what you mean, do they provide sensation for you as well, or just your partner?
just realised i have the tiniest ear lobes in the world... had my left one pierced when i was a kid (11 or something) but i let it heal after a year or so. right nipple (i also have very small nips, but the right is somewhat bigger than the left now thanks to the metal raising it, and the fact that it's permanently erect) done when i was 15, and i still love it. tongue and lip have also been pierced within the last couple of years. i'd consider getting a brow or tragus maybe, but nothing else too visible. what i'd really like is my nape, and possibly do my frenum afterwards... looks like a good start xen0, can't say i'd stretch just the one side (though it seems to work for acron), any plans to pierce the other side before stretching?
Thats them although I have teflon beads, not pearls. Sensation is mostly for her although I do feel them quite a bit at times, dependant on situation. *n
Had my lower lip and tongue pierced at one point. The lip was difficult to put back in after I would take it out, and eventually I got tired of trying to fish the loop through the hole, so I took it out. Had my tongue pierced for about two years before I finally got rid of it. It messed up my teeth (chipped a few of them.) I do still have the hole in my tongue though, and occassionally I'll stick something through it (like a piece of uncooked spaghetti) to freak people out. Aside from my ears, I don't really like piercings anymore (too much bother for me) and I've pretty much just settled on tattoo's instead. Although a girl with a small hoop through an eyebrow still looks pretty hot to me! And no, neither my lip nor my tongue really hurt to get pierced. They were just a little sore for a couple days afterwards (and I talked funny when I got my tongue done.) By the way, NEVER EVER eat salted french fries or potato chips right after having your tongue pierced ! That hurt far more than any piercing! Oh, and for anyone considering getting their weiner skewered, I'd recommend doing a search on "Mr. Lifto" (former Jim Rose Circus performer). Take a good look at his various "hardware" and then tell me if it still seems like a good idea (and yeah, certain genital piercings will cause you to have to sit down to pee...unless you don't mind whizzing in three different directions at once.)
What has Mr. Lifto got to do with anything? He's hardly the most pierced guy out there... Oh and there is no certainty about whether you'll have to sit down to pee...by all rights, I should have to, due to the piercing i have...bu tI don't have to Its all individual... *n
Well people are definitely right about it being addictive...want my eyebrow done now. Will it do any harm healing two piercings at once? Is the eyebrow more likely to get infected? Thanks
Best to let your ear heal first... Basically, the more piercings you have healing at any one time, the longer they will take. *n
True, Lifto isn't the most pierced guy out their. I was just suggesting people take a look at it before they get it done, but he's probably not the best exampe since he's a bit, um, "stretched out" at this point . But then again, most people here probably aren't going to hang cinderblocks off of their genitalia on a regular basis. As for having to sit down, I guess that is an individual thing. Most of the people I've know with amphalangs have had to, but I've never really wanted to visually verify this. Actually, for people interested in piercings, they should try to track down a copy of Re/Search's "Modern Primatives" book. It's got pictures of just about every form of body modification ever concieved, and is very interesting...except for Genesis P-Orridge. That guy's just a freak (since that book, he's had breast implants and had all of his regular teeth removed and replaced with solid gold ones.)
Genesis kicks ass. I'm one of the few in the UK with a copy of the ModCon book - much more 'eye opening' than Modern Primitives and rather less pretentious too. On the whole, ampallangs and apadravyas have very little impact on the urine stream as they are transurethral and stay strictly within the meatus, not exiting from the urethra. *n
