Which piercing hurts the most?
Your first piercing can be scary. It's totally okay to be nervous! There's a needle getting shoved through your skin, so it's probably going to hurt, right? There's so many questions that go through our heads the first time we get pierced.
"How bad is it going to hurt?"
"What if it doesn’t heal?"
"Will it look good on me?"
These are all questions that can absolutely deter someone from going through with a piercing. Let's clear up the questions about pain!
How bad is it going to hurt?
Well, it's going to hurt. Will it be the worst pain of your life? No way, but it's better to go into your piercing knowing that a tiny bit of pain is a part of it. If you're not very tolerant of physical pain, you might want to bring a friend along to calm your nerves, you'll totally want to plan out some rest and relaxation time after your piercing, and above all else - talk to your piercer! Let them know how you're feeling throughout the process so that they can be sure you're as comfortable as possible.
As a general rule of thumb:
-
Earlobe, navel, tongue and eyebrow piercings are generally considered the least painful.
-
Septum, labret, dermal (surface) piercings, cartilage piercings, and nostril piercings are generally considered a medium level of pain for most.
-
Generally the most painful piercings are in sensitive areas, ie. nipple and intimate piercings
I think it goes without saying, piercing an area of your body that's already sensitive is going to be the most painful. Don't let that scare you off, though. Your body will naturally react to stimulation, and if you're someone who is very in-touch with your body, you'll probably feel a bit startled. None of this means you're going to feel like you're literally dying just because you got your nipples pierced.
If this is your first time getting pierced...
-
Paperwork. You're going to need to show ID and sign some forms.
-
The piercer will explain exactly what they're going to do.
-
Sizing, positioning and a bit of waiting before the actual piercing happens.
-
Picking out your jewelry! This part is fun, but listen to recommendations your piercer makes before you get stuck on a piece you really want. Some jewelry can't be worn in fresh piercings, so you may have to wait.
