Piercings

[cymbidia]

Those of you who've been around awhile know that i know something about body piercings - at least from the "getting them" side in terms of a BDSM activity. Those of you who don't know me, well, i did piercing as a recreational activity of sorts with my last important dominant. One of my "stories", Piercing is about one of those sessions. (With only 1.5 exceptions, all of my writings are autobiographical. I wouldn't recognize a fiction idea if it smacked me upside the head and intro'ed itself.)

Anyway, while i've been on sabbatical from lit, i've been out playing. Hard. One of the things i've done is go get some new piercings (cuz i took all the others out at the end of What Was).

So i have some new ones. Piercings, that is. Body piercings.

I had them done by a fairly well known piercer, the person who invented one of the pierces, actually, that i got. All of them done within the last five days as i sit here on Friday night typing this out. It was in a completely wonderful BDSM setting, too, that these took place. The piercer and his wife/sub are lifestylers. It was great.

Well, except there were a lot of pierces done.
Nine, actually.
Six outer labia and one triangle - all done last Sunday.
One each in my nips - done the last Tuesday.

I gotta admit, my body is feeling these but one of my goals was to erase MS' piercing ownership of my body by having more pierces done at once then he ever did. I was successful. He only did six at once - and seven i got last Sunday, then the two more the next Tuesday, beats his six all to hell.

Pics and story next week.
Beware.

MMMMMM

Can't wait for the story and pic's!!!! **drool** i love piercing too.

Welcome back =)

 

[cymbidia]

This piercing is one that shows all six of my outer labia piercings. (The seventh piercing, called a triangle piercing, is located inside my labia, under the clitoris stem. You can only see a hint of it in this pic but holy geezus good god almighty does it make a difference in how one perceives even gentle touches on her clit!)

Warning: This pic was taken two days after the Sunday piercings were finished, at the time of the nipple piercings. There is some obvious swelling and bruising one can see in this pic. Don't open it if you're squeamish.

(Note: All of my recent nine body piercings were done by Adashi [http://www.adashipagoda.com/] a well-known BDSM lifestyle piercer and equipment-maker. Thirteen years ago, he did the first triangle piercing on his wife/sub. I got the most recent last Sunday.)

 

[mskittykatt]

thanks Cym =)
is there more info on the triangle one on that page? i'm off to look... those actually look pretty good for two days later - i'm so jealous! there is no one in my tiny town i'd trust to pierce my ears

 

[cymbidia]

I am doing 3X daily hot salt water baths, mskitty. (Got a 25# bag of salt from CostCo and am putting 3 cups of salt in every bath. That 25 pounds is disappearing pretty fast.)

Additionally, after each bath, i'm using antibacterial Q-tips and swabbing all 18 holes with neosporin.

On with a bra to keep the stuff off my clothing.
On with undies (yay for pantiliners - a new one at the completion of every bath).

On my way.

(My piercings are all 10 gauge except the triangle, which is 12 ga.)

Here is some info on the triangle piercing:

I'm telling you guys - uh, you girls - this triangle piercing is incredible. The sensations one can have from even soft touching are mind-blowing. It's fabulous. I didn't have any trouble orgasming before this and now, well, it's really incredible the difference in sensitivity. I sound like some kind of puppt, i know, but, well, it's truly amazing...

 

[mskittykatt]

thanks for the links Cym! i am drooling and panting over here LOL good thing i'm alone i love piercing and tattoo's to begin with - and this just looks like icing on the cake for me!

unfortunately i seem to meet all the criteria for the triangle except for my fat thighs which could be a problem.
there was one thing i saw that might help after i lose a substantial amount of weight... so i could get one before i have a perfect figure anyway!!

" In this case, a symmetrical teardrop shaped ring is often more appropriate than a round ring. "

here's to you Cym welcome back and the sweet dreams i'll have tonight! *grin*

dammit, b--curiosity won out, and I looked at the picture. The piercings look just as good as you led me to expect: nice balance, even distribution, minimal tissue trauma, generally excellent work.

But it still weirds me out to check out your privates now that I think of you like a sister.

And I'm still not doing any of that funky piercing stuff any time soon.

 

[Daddyslilpet]

Wow, cym, I'm speechless. Personally don't think I could get any piercings in my privates region, however, I am still toying with the idea of getting my nipples done.

I'd love to hear more about that part, if you don't mind. How exciting for you this must be. I'm also jealous as I don't think I'll be able to find anyone around my small town that I'd trust to do this for me.

R, you didn't have to look.

Besides, us being sisters-of-the-heart doesn't preclude occasional glimpses of skin, at least not in my family. We're pretty casual nudists round here. Nothing sexual, you understand, but nothing uptight either.


dixi?
My dominant (i'll get to that intro sometime soon, suffice it to say that R - who has talked to him on the phone - has christened him "Tex", a name that he laughed at hearing and remarked that it wasn't the worst thing anyone had ever called him) stopped the piercings last Sunday after seven, saying i'd had enough. When i got the other two in my nipples two days later, i realized that he was right; i had, indeed, had enough before then. Though i protested his decision at the time, he'd seen that i was very close to what i could possibly take with regard to piercing, uh, "discomfort".

Piercing hurts. It hurts for 3-10 seconds - or however long it takes the needle to actually pierce into your (surprisingly) tough epidermis, slide through your inside tissue, and exit the other side of your epidermis. Then it doesn't hurt anymore. Honestly. The minute the needle is through, it stop hurting. (Then the tightness of the fucking piercing clamp hurts, but that's another story.) Then there's some discomfort, not pain, as the ring/bar follows the hollow piercing needle through.

Then it's done.

Can you handle the anticipation of the pain, though? Can you handle the intellectual knowledge that you're sitting there, naked to the world, waiting paitiently, nakedly, for someone to poke a fucking BIG needle through your most tender parts? That's the head trip of piercing, darlin', and the place where many of us get in trouble.

Can you do this piercing as a testament to your submission for your dominant? That kind of piercing seems much much easier for me, quite frankly, then just going to someone and offering them my tit to poke a hole into.

I'll be talking more about this as the week wears on. For now, though, here are some pics of the nipple piercing process.

1. Adashi placing the marks on my nipple.
2. The piercing forceps in place.
3. My nipple is pierced. There was almost no blood. Note the hollow needle. The ring is inserted and follows the needle through the piercing.
4. The ring is through my nipple. The goopy stuff is neosporin.
5. Adashi is using pliers to open the ring and capture the hematite bead. This was a teensy bit uncomfy, quite frankly, but just a bit.
6. A finished piercing. Now, onto the other nipple...

I gotta admit, it is very impressive, they all are, and when you are healed up! Well, then the fun really begins.

Is this having a cathartic effect on you? Kinda like a rebirth?

Peircing is just too ?different? for me personally, but if you're happy - cool.

Just wanted to say its nice to see you back. As you can see I've gone alien since you left.

Actually cym that doesn't look too bad. Any itching yet?

Nope. No itching at all. Yet. However, i'm still doing the 3X daily hot salt-water baths, too, and then slathering all the holes with neosporin. There's not much drying that can take place under those conditions, you know? However, they are all beginning to heal - and my skin is remaining soft and supple. The bruising is going away. The swelling is pretty much gone. There's no sign at all, in any of the holes, of infection. They're healing nicely, far as i can tell.

Uh, cym you were not back yet when a few of us were beating the easy orgasmers! LOL

Quit bragging!

OMG, Eb. Honestly. The triangle piercing is crazy cool. It's like your clit suddenly being 10X more sensitive. Every small soft stroke can be felt on top and underneath, in a place i never felt it before. It's like it's being touched on two sides at once, like when we masturbate a man and we can touch him on all sides? Well, imagine that, kinda, on your clit...

I gotta admit, it is very impressive, they all are, and when you are healed up! Well, then the fun really begins.

It is a rebirth!
I knew i was still trapped in memories of my years with my last important dominant in a few ways, places that lingered as belonging only to him. I want to be free of those last claims he has on my heart and my memories and my body, you know? I need to take the last few steps away from him as a factor in my life.

He and i did a lot a piercing together. He pierced me - and himself. It was a part of our shared eroticism. I wanted to erase that hold he had on my sexuality that place in my mind that belonged entirely to him. To do that, i needed to get more piercings at once then he ever did to me at once.

My new (to you guys) dominant likes piercing, too, but doesn't do it. He and i found a really highly regarded lifestyle piercer, did a Saturday 3 hours drive out into the boonies to meet him and hid wife/sub, spent a great evening with them - and the next day the piercings were done - entirely in a D/s BDSM setting.

It was perfect. It erased MS from my mind as the owner of my piercing experiences. (BTW, the erasure of MS from this part of my sexuality wasn't the whole of the reason these piercings were done but only a part of it. There was much more that had to do with where my dominant - Tex, as R has christened him - and i are going together from here on.)

(Hi Jonnyray. That's a good look for you. )

Well, I for one am sooo happy for you and your Dom Tex.

Eb. Those salt water baths are doooo relaxing as well as healthful. I am sure all the women on Lit who are contemplating piercings will copy and paste your report as a primer on how to do it right!

Now if we can get a male to do the same for male piercings <hint, hint>

cym, uh...I don't know who instructed you in aftercare, or if it's your own concoction, but if you keep up like this you are going to have HUGE problems in places you don't want problems.

I am an experienced piercee, and have 2 close friends who are respected piercers. You'll just have to take my word on that. I'm sure you've been there, but check out http://www.bmezine.com/ and it will back up what I say.

First, cut off the Neosporin NOW. It doesn't allow your piercings to breathe, dry or drain, and you can get fluid build up, follicular cysts, and other nasties. Besides, a lot of people are allergic or become allergic to it with frequent use. Neosporin in ONLY good if you have an infection that responds to no other method. Any other use will only contribute to the formation of resistant bacterial.

Anti bacterial soaps are OK, not great, but OK as long as you don't use ones that contain triclosan (Dial, some of the Softsoap line, etc). Try to get some Provon or Satin.

All you REALLY need is non-iodized salt without yellow prussiate of soda, ie sea salt or kosher salt, and mix 1/4 teaspoon to 8 ounces, then soak your piercings in it for 10 minutes or so and rinse with clear water.

 

[cymbidia]

Hi cirrus, and thank you so very much for your concern.

Like you, i have a really good piercer. His name is Adashi, someone with an international reputation who is also listed in Screw The Roses. Additionally, like you, i'm very experience with respect to getting body piercings. I've been getting them in and out of me for more then four years. I've had at least two dozen piercings, in all the tender spots, in that time.

Your point about the neosporin is a good one but my nipple piercings are only three days old and i use it for the first 3 - 4 days on all new piercings to be sure there's no infection that begins. As of my middle salt soak yesterday, i stopped using it on my genital piercings. (I'm not allergic to the stuff. I already know that.)

I've got at least 15 or 16 pics of me and my piercings posted in the pages at www.bmezine.com; you're right - i've been there.

Thank you for all the detailed info on piercing aftercare. We can never have too much of that.

 

[lickerish]

Hi cym!! I've been missing your presence around here (well, at GB I've never stopped by here) I'm so happy to see you around.

The piercings look great.. I've a question though... if you shave the labia at all, how do you do it with all the labial piercings?

I'm going to get my hood done either tonight or Tuesday I wanted to get a Christina piercing done, but my piercer is trying to talk me out of it- because of the length of time it takes to heal.


*hugs* again, good to see you
