Can you believe I did this thrice?


I had this done in the summer of 1995. It hurt like hell, so bother asking, because it's a really stupid question. However, once you know what to expect, it's a breeze (sorta). I got it pierced the second time because I did a really dumb thing. I left the jewelry out too long and the hole shrank. Piercing is the easy thing. Try standing in front of the bathroom mirror forcing a piece of metal through muscle that no longer wants it. That pain is something I wouldn't want to repeat. Of course, I gave up and got it pierced again a couple of months later. I took it out in September of 1996 for a job. I left that job after 5 months. I had it done again in October of 1997. It hurt even more the third time, because by this time there was scar tissue through which to pierce. I also had my eyebrow ring redone, and I had all six of my earing holes reopened (they had begun almost to close, but that takes a long long time). I have all my piercings back now, and then some... and I am content.
