So I decided today was the day to go for it, got everything ready and it took about a half hour to work it through nice and easy. I put the new bar in the back of the taper and it went easy a pie. The problem came when the jewelery got stuck in the stupid thing. So I spent 5 minutes working on that and that is when I felt some pain. After I got it all done and settled I put a pic up in my gallery. I decided to go ahead and do the next one down to 8 so I have completed what I have planned for right now.
I got my two new 10g piercings below my lorum on tuesday and they are healing fine, only one problem.... the lower one is crooked when the skin is warm and when it is cooler it is straight. If you know what I mean. I posted pictures in my gallery let me know if I should take it out and try again or let it go and see what it does on its own.
Today after much plannning & anticipation; I've become one of the folks w/extra holes. First was the earlobe with a 14ga. Titanium horseshoe with cones. Nothing to it. My wife was surprised I didn't even flinch. Next up was the Lorum right at the base of my peen. We (the piercer, Myself & my Wife) discussed the placement, checked for blood vessels in the way and got a target after a couple tries. This was all while sitting on the edge of the table. Next was the moment of truth, & I was asked to lie back on the table.
This was my third piercing - (I no longer have this, but I liked it when I had it). I had wanted one of these in part because of the look and I think it is just sexy as hell. I did some research for a good and very clean place and found it at Mark's Piercing nearby Wilkes-Barre. Steve was great. Very nice, very professional, incredibly informative. I was made very comfortable and he talked me through the whole time. I was surprised at how little it hurt. It was a mild pinch and the discomfort was much less than my navel. I liked it from the first time I saw it.
I was pretty nearvous about getting this done. I was even chicken to call the shop and ask about it!
Date: 4/28/2006 Piercing: Lorum 8 gauge 5/8 dia Captive Bead ring Piercer: Jesika, Saint Sabrinas in Minneapolis, MN The experience was great. I arrived at Saint Sabrinas a few minutes early and took care of the paperwork. Jesika greeted me and showed some photos of other Lorum/Scrotal piercings and discussed jewellery options. We agreed on an 8 gauge CBR. Then I was off to the piercing room which seemed hospital clean, removed my shoes, pants and underwear. Jesika cleaned the area to be pierced and carefully marked the entrance and exit points on my scrotum.
nice piercing, only problem is the healing. If U're really activ, watch out the process, make sure your hand are real clean, underwears seems to make too much frictions. Sea salt is good, what I did for few weeks, put a cup of water in the microwave, got the steam over the pierce aera (don't burn yourself) still has a sort of hard skin over but less swallen. Still,no regrets. If need advices, read the FAQ.. Good tips and proper advices. join a pic soon
correction to previous posting, jacob's ladder are 14 gauhe, not 4. any comments?
got into piercings late in life, the wife says i am having a mid-life crisis. it started with my left ear being pierced, then progressed to my left nipple. this was about 5 years ago. had my right nipple pierced late last year. she does not know of my newest ones. i have self pierced my penis 3 times. sort of a jacob's ladder. until you do it you can not understand the rush of the needle going through the skin. at this point my ear is stretched to a 4g, right nipple a 10g cbr, left nipple can accomodate its 4g cbr and 3 14g barbells, the jacob's ladder are 4g currently.
I have had three frenums done, so I decided to get a lorum done. The frenums barely hurt as it was more of a quick sharp poke nore than a pain. Anyhow it only lasts a few seconds and it is over. The lorum is right at the lower part of the shaft right where the scrotum meets. I started out with a 14 g small capitve. Let it heal for about 2 1/2 month so now I changed it to a 10g and in a larger captive that has a "slave" barbell hanging from where the ball joins it together. It really feels great as it bounces around on you balls as you walk around with loose clothing.
