Piercings ... Some Questions

I made a post in the Dallas co-ed section about getting a personal piercing. Here is the text:

Has anyone heard of The Gauntlet? It was a piercing salon in San Francisco that I had heard about but now, it's closed. I was just researching it now and it's actually been closed a LOT longer than I realized. Sigh.

Oh well. I'm thinking of doing some body modifications. Not really sure why but I just feel like it. I have pierced ears but never wear earrings and maybe it's an age thing, but I'm thinking of having a private piercing done.

At The Gauntlet, the piercings were sometimes made an event. I wouldn't mind that. Like having myself pierced right at the moment of orgasm. Just thinking and writing out loud, btw.

Is there any place in Dallas that is an excellent piercing place? Any suggestions? Thoughts?

Now, I'm bringing it here because I have some general questions. I've done research and I'm thinking of getting a personal piercing. Do any of you have any experience with this?

I would appreciate any input.

Thanks,
Elisabeth

Yes, I have had mine for 7 years now no problems at all. I went to a place in Deep Ellum.

I have been with a few ladies who had personal peircings and they love them, didn't have any problems....but....

I have been with just as many ladies who did have a lot of problems. I have played with three ladies that were no longer able to cum because of nerve damage, and they were all clit cummers. One lady was normal until her peircing, and then she could only orgasm via g-spot, which meant she didn't cum everytime she had sex, and when she did cum, plenty of towels had to be on hand. One lady didn't have any issues with regular sex, but could no longer feel vibrations in her clit, which meant her toys were no longer of use.

I've found that nipple peircings are much the same....some makes the nipples more sensitive, and some kills the nerves and they no longer can sexually enjoy their nipples.

One lady removed her clit peircing when it interfered with her orgasms, and due to scar tissue being left behind, she never did get her sensitivity back.

I know a couple who owns their own tatoo/peircing shop and I was going to get my hood peirced on camera with a bj for payment, but after 11yrs in a high sexually charged lifestyle, and finding out what I have about them, I am chooseing not to chance it.... No peircings here!

I am considering getting mine done as well. However, my question is...How long does it take to heal before you can start to "play" again?

I just emailed my piercing buddy she says it takes 6-12 weeks to heal and don't use antibacterial soap down there while healing. She says use mild soap and sing the Happy Birthday song twice so it has time to work.

I got my hood above the clit pierced back in 1995, in Fayetteville, Ark...I used the cleaning soap they gave me to use and it healed up in 2 weeks. It has never been sore. I get plenty of pleasure from it. It has not changed my orgasms...if anything for the better. I can cum with vib on clit or during sex. Oral sex is a plus...... If I go dancing my jeans even turn me on....I love it.

i have had both of my nipples done with play 21 gauge needles and i don't suggest it, lol. Hurt really badly and was just over all a very bad experience.

Subcilla,

Are you alright now, though? Sounds awful.

I have these piercing thoughts, smile, every few years ago. Then I tend to talk myself out of it.

Thanks for the input, though.

Hugs,
Elisabeth

Yes its ok now, and was shortly after but for the moment i thought for sure i would pass out.
