" i want to know how painful it is to get it pierced, if they infect easily, and how it affects the feeling in that area. i've heard rumors that nipple rings can cause you to loose all sensitivity but i dont think i believe that.
also, do they get caught on your clothing a lot? "

" I have had mine done for 10 years or so now . I have 40 piercings and I didnt think the pain was so bad but you want to make sure the person doing them has experiance . They can take 6mo to a year to heal depending on the size and your body type . I found that I had more clothing getting caught on them when I would wear barbells in them . Hoops work good for me . It is possibly to lose some sensitivity in them but more times than not you gain sensitivity . Mine are too sensitive sometimes .In the winter I need to make sure I keep those babies warm . "

" The pain wasn't bad at all for me either. I absolutely agree with the statement about hoops vs. barbells however, I did find that mine healed up better when I had barbells in them. Maybe that was just me.
As for sensitivity, it upped mine. Just make sure you take good care of them as you would any other piercing :) "

" Ugh... I had my nipples pierced, I liked the way they looked but they just did not want to heal...
I kept them for about a year and kept getting flare ups but I am pretty sensitive to metal... Mine did best when I switched to silica for a surgery... Hightened my sensitivity for sure... Still more sensitive and I've had them out for four years... I do still have scarring but not bad

good luck

oh and for the actual piercing pain- worst piercing I got but I think that was more the piercer than the location... "

" Mine are pierced. I didn't find it that painful to be honest with you.. to me it was more like a quick pinch. My tattoo across my rib cage hurt worse lol "
