I got my labrette (chin) done about 6 weeks ago. I was debating whether or not to get my tounge or labrette done. I decided not to get my tounge because its getting to trendy, and i wanted to be different.I wasn't going to get my chin at first because i heard it was a turn off, but decided, WHO CARES?? So I went with my boyfriend to a little place in downtown san francisco. The place really cool,and they were really nice, and made me feel at ease. So i signed all the fun paperwork, and payed the $65. They told me they were going to use fishtail style jewerly instead of the disc back style because it usually makes your gums jacked up, and i sure was glad they told me cause that would have sucked!!! So they basically pulled my lip out and stabbed it with a needle, (oh yea, they cleaned it first). It hurt alot becuase I'm a pain wimp, but only for about 15min, and bleeded quite a bit too. Eventually the pain went away, until I woke up the next morning and it was a little sore, but that was about all the pain i experienced. I really dig it now, i put spikes in it. My boyfriend got a little annoyed that when we kiss it poked him, but he got used to it, and its all good now! And yes...a labrette can be a turn on!!!
