i know me 2!Ahhhhh I want to get mine done soooo badly! I'm nervous though.
ive seen it done plenty of times! i also had tape sometime over my ear cuz i stretched them out!so glad i found this thread! im thinking about getting mine done this summer... im so scared though! i heard people say they have to tape it for cheer practice if they cant take it out yet, does anyone do that?
For those who have their bellybutton pierced..is there a difference in pain/infection occurence between the top & bottom of the bellybutton. Ha I have a friend who has both the top & bottom pierced and believe it or not it doesn't look a mess, but I only want one for sure! Just curious..I don't even know which is the common one to get pierced Haha
i am the same way about needles so that is good to hear!I am the world's biggest baby when it comes to "needle pain" (...I actually pass out at the sight of them. lol.) and I didn't think it was that bad. I got it done...I guess it was three years ago? Everyone says the clamp is uncomfortable but I didn't mind that at all. The actual needle felt like a quick hard pinch, but then it was over. Nothing unbearable and certainly not so bad that I regret it.
Afterward it hurt for about a week. Just kinda felt like a little pinch a lot of the time. No infections here. Cleaned it religiously.
Hurt pretty bad to tumble for the first few weeks, but I got used to it. I rarely took it out for practice (oops), and only ever even noticed it when catching baskets. Always hurt a little bit - as a base - on that front. Mine took forever to heal so I was always doing a little bit of re-piercing after competitions, so if you don't HAVE to do it while you're still cheering, don't. If you really want it though...go for it. It won't be too bad.
