I have my nave and my tongue pierced and I love both of them. I have a
horror story of how my belly button was pierced. I've had my belly
button pierced 3 times. The first time was at a rave, stupid thing to
do! He was very clean and made sure to throw all his needles away so I
felt safe. This was the first time I'd ever had a piercing done so I
didn't know what to expect. After the needle was through I looked at my
boyfriend and said wow I'm dizzy, a second later I was passed out in the
chair. My head had fallen backwards and I was lik moving all over in
the chair. Everyone who was there that knew me freaked out! When I
woke up I was so scared I told him to take it out right now! I still
didn't have the hoop in. On my way home I realized how stupid I was and
I should have told him to leave it in cuz it was already done. But a
year later I decided to try it again but this time at a professional
piercing place. It was quick and only a little painful. The guy kept
telling me that if it was messed up it wasn't his fault it was how I
took care of it. I figured it was standard for him to say that and said
okay. A few months later I found out that he had done it wrong. He
didn't pierce enough skin and it was starting to push itself out of my
skin and I had to take it out. By this time I was very upset because I
wanted it done so bad. My sister has a friend who does piercings and
she said to have him do but I was very nervous because he was t her
hotel room and they were piercing a bunch of people there was no way I
was getting pierced somewhere other than a professional piercing place.
But as I watched him he was more clean than the guy was at the piercing
place. After he pierced someone he'd put their needle in a cork and
break it wrap it up in his gloves and throw it in a red hazzard
container. I finally let him do it and it hurt less than any of the
other times I'd one it. It' now a month later and I am finally very
happy with my new ring! It's actually healing well this time and I am so
glad it's finally over with.
