    Its a totally personal thing. Sure how many people are gonna know, unless your whipping your clit out at every oppertunity! I cant see any modern fella minding anyway. I would find it interesting myself if I discovered a clit piercing when going south.

    Personally, I don't like the taste of metal.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,911 ✭✭✭Zombienosh


    in the end it shouldn't even matter what anyone else thinks....
    its totally up to you, you're the one who will have it, its your body
    if your comfortable with the idea of it and you really want it, then go for it
    feck what everyone else thinks.
    :cool:

    I say go for it!
    Got it done nearly two months ago at Snakebite - brilliant. I had done a lot of research on the web and then decided YES. Pain wise - I was terrified of it hurting, but it is so so SO QUICK you barely have time to think *OW* and it is done. Milliseconds.I had worked myself up into a state, cos my nipple piercings bloody hurt, and I imagined this to be more painful, but I couldn't have been more wrong.
    If you think how thin the skin is there, the needle goes through very fast - truly do not worry about the pain, I found it minimal, not even pain really. Healed in less than a week, and it is a great piercing! Looks so pretty, and functional too! Are you going to go for a vertical hood?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 217 ✭✭Bessacadia


    Forgot to mention that my hubby was sort of in two minds about it till I got it done - he says it is great! I have a little diamond sitting on top of my clit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭Healio


    I knew a girl who got it done and she said she was constantly getting turned on for a few weeks after.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,225 ✭✭✭Ciaran500


    I'm still waiting for those pics Bess :D

    HA! Well it was an interesting sensation when I walked for a few weeks, but I am not horny 24/7.But it definitely makes a difference to my sex life!
    Sorry, no pics - use your imagination........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,691 ✭✭✭garthv


    a clit hood piercing?
    if i went out with a girl and found out she had her clit hood done it would be the biggest turn on. I dont understand how other men dont like it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,733 ✭✭✭Blub2k4


    Go for it, it looks great and can only be a plus for your sex life.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 53 ✭✭toxic_angel


    thank u so much im definately gonna get it done now so the saving for it will comence

    im a student so itll be bout christmas when i get it done

    thanks guys


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    i was debating about this too, although i'd be more worried about a stranger messing around between my legs than the pain...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    It will be done a professional manner so I wouldnt worry about that element


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    ah obviously it would be perfectly professional, i'm just so paranoid about my body it'd end up embarassing me in some way...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭pixie_student


    what can go wrong with this piercing? :confused:

    And how much does it cost?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 217 ✭✭Bessacadia


    I wouldn't imagine anything much CAN go wrong - it needs practically no aftercare.Heals mega quick.I found absolutely no pain or soreness afterwards, at all.
    I went to Snakebite, and paid €70. Very very worth it!

    Just think about it, the same way you think about getting a smear test or whatever. We all hate having it done but its over in a flash.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 Fair Enough


    Got it done yesterday. €50 in missfantasia.

    There is no real pain with it. They use 100% alcohol to numb it which stings a bit for a few seconds but it's not bad. He's very easy going too. I was a bit put off by the whole idea of a stranger prodding my genitals but they're used to it. Just like going to a gynaecologist, that's not embarrassing.

    And you really shouldn't worry what other people think about it. Piercings are a personal thing that you get done because you want to.

    But most men would love it. I wanted a new piercing but couldn't think of what to get so asked a few guys who all came back with either the nipple, clitoris or both so if you are worried, they'll love it. :D

    well thats useless to me cause i've never had a smear test.

    come to think of it, that might be a good idea... :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 54 ✭✭LilyMon


    Wow - I am really tempted to have this done.
    Was just wondering about one thing though -what is the jewellery itself like - I mean, it can't be a bulky stud like one that goes in your ear - or is it? Does anyone have a pic of the typical stud which is used for these type of piercing?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,390 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lenny


    Would it not be a little ring?

    Do - it's great!
    I had a straight barbell in when pierced, but I wanted something with a bigger ball at the end so I got one of these Titanium Pearlbells after about ten days...

    what happens when you're in your bikini on the beach? does it stick out or lie flat and inconspicuous?

    me just being the curious sort.

    Hee hee
    No it sits inside the folds of the outer labia and unless you have a huge ball thing at the end, it won't show!

    Well it is a good idea to think about it, but don't think for too long - after I had it done I really regretted not doing it years ago...........


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22 tinsel


    i got it do a few weeks ago...best decision of my (sex)life!
    my boyfs best mate was a piercer in snakebite so he did it for me...that was strange!
    any guy i know finds it a turn on...
    not much can go wrong with this as long as its cleaned correctly and left to heal it should turn out perfect!
    ps it is recommended that you get it pierced within the week after you have your monthlys for healing reasons

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2 methos


    Hi angle I found out that if you get one piercing you will want more. I had three piercings my left ear and it sang in pain for a few days so be carefull ;) .I have four tattoes on my arms one between my elbow and hand and that was the sorest.Hopefully you will comsider the pain.

    They're piercings mate, read the charter pain is not something that is wanted here as a discussion theme. If someone is talking about getting a needle put through their holiest of holies then there is going to be some pain that is not the issue nor a sensible theme on a piercing forum.

    How can you speak of pleasure without also considering pain? arent they exact opposites? so one could not exist without the other...

    Piercing does cause pain but the receiver of the pain can control it and it is when pain is controlled that endorphins are released blah blah blah....

    well I got my tongue done 7 years ago, hurt for a while but the end result outweighed the pain, i still have it in and love it... but without discussing the pain aspect i am not giving a balanced view. so YES piercing does hurt (only for a small while) and the pleasure far outweight the pain so I recommend anybody wanting it done DO IT!!!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,733 ✭✭✭Blub2k4


    The point is Bandit that discussion of pain is not something that this forum was set up for, it is a piercing and tattoo forum and both things hurt, one mans poison...etc
    If people want to know does something hurt then they should stick a compass in it and see what happens, we all know pain is involved, discussion of the amount of pain is moot for something so subjective.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 53 ✭✭toxic_angel


    i have my tongue done already and thats where i caught the piercing bug from but i dont want ones that are very visible as im going to be an accountant and it would be seriosly frowned on...... but can someone answer the difference between the vertical and horizontal version for me thx

    are we talking about vertical/horizontal tongue piercing?

    I do realize this forum is not designed to talk about pain but even a forum set up to talk about natural child birth would discuss pain... I feel its unfair NOT to let people wanting tatts or piercings know that it will bloody well hurt

    AFAIK horizontal goes through the peak of the hood & verticle, goes down towards the back of the hood..... best to check www.BMEZINE.com

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 217 ✭✭Bessacadia


    Go for the vertical - more sensation.
    A quick Google will tell you the difference, and confirm my advice :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 53 ✭✭toxic_angel


    wow bmezine is brilliant....thx


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 494 ✭✭trio


    I'm also thinking of getting it done, this week or next. I'm a bit nervous about how much it'll hurt (got my nipples done and if I'd realised how horrendous the pain was going to be wouldn't have done it - much worse than I thought).

    Mind you, it's not meant to be as bad as nipple pain, so that's something.

    When I got my nipples done (a year ago), I went to Snakebite (had my tats done there and really like the friendly unintimidating atmos.) and to my unending joy they had a very sweet female piercer there. Made me feel much more at ease.
    Though I have to say that when I went back a month later to get one of my barbells replaced, it was one of the guys who examined me and he was so professional you'd swear he was looking at the engine of a car rather than a breast.
    So that was a positive, but with my clitoris, I do think I'd prefer a female so that that's one less thing to get stressed about on the day.
    I'm going to ring and see if she's still there. Hope so!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 Fair Enough


    Do, ring. I know there was a girl there called Regina. She has her own place in Kildare now but only opens at six so she could still be in Snakebite. :D

    Anyway, it doesn't hurt at all. I said earlier that it's just the alcohol to numb it that stings a bit but there is no major pain. I wasn't joking.

    Go for it. You won't regret it. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 217 ✭✭Bessacadia


    In Snakebite NO alcohol was used, so no stinging at all!You don't need anything to numb it, and alcohol is not an anaesthetic anyway.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,733 ✭✭✭Blub2k4


    The alcohol will be used to sterilise, but due to the fact that it is so valatile (it evaporates quickly) you would feel a chill if pure alcohol is put on your body as it evaporates and working on the same priciple as freon in a fridge would cause a topical chill, but like Bessacadia says it is not an anaesthetic and this is a side effect of cleaning.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 494 ✭✭trio


    Thanks for the reassurance about the pain, guys.

    I rang Snakebite.
    EnglishDude said she'd been gone for quite some time. Wahhh! However, he tried to reassure me that he had been the one who trained her in on VCH's in the first place. I asked him how many he'd done and he said "Ooooooh, Shedloads! " which was funny.

    Don't know about a strange guy messing around with my bits though. I've never even had a smear test done by anyone other than a woman! I know those guys are nice and chatty and good at putting people at their ease, so maybe. I'll have to let the idea ferment for a while. I feel a bit ill with nervousness at the thought of a male piercer right now. I'm more stressed about that than the piercing itself! I'm sure I'll come round though - the idea just takes a bit of getting used to.

    He also said that worst time to get it was week before your period. Your bits are at their most sensitive, so more chance of pain and/or rejection. And not so hygenic when you do get your period shortly after.
    Best time is a week after your period ends: you are at your least sensitive, and you have more healing time before you get your period again.

    Means I probably have to wait a few weeks before getting it done (if I do get cool about the guy thing), but no harm. One thing I've learnt - NEVER disregard anything an experienced piercer says!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    hehe when i got my nipple done in amsterdam, i reckon the guy spent alot more time than he needed to making sure it was nicely aligned. but thats ok cause i have nice boobedies :)

    curious about the clit hood, what kind of impact would this have on me cycling? i cycle to college and to work, and various other places, but i could imagine a piercing down there cause quite a bit of discomfort... anyone with one know what its like? get out a bike and have a cycle around and let me know :p
