So, on Saturday night I decided to treat myself and get my labret pierced! I have been wanting to do this for awhile now but I wasn't sure what kind of job I would get out here in Cali and if they would be ok with facial piercings. Sadly, I had to take out my eyebrow piercing for a job before.
Obviously, the office I work for now doesn't mind piercings and I finally had a little money in the bank so Saturday night I went to Studio City tattoo and piercing (thanks to Jenn!) and got my labret pierced and my ears stretched to a 12 gauge. My piercer's name was Nick and he was really nice and proffesional. I will definitely be going to him for any future piercings.

The labret didn't hurt at all, but I have a pretty high tolerance for pain and I love the piercing ritual. The excitement and anxiety, the hot rush of the needle, and then...accomplishment! I'm weird..I know this.

The ear stretching did sting a little though..and are actually more sore than the piercing! Which i'm actually really surprised. But about every four weeks or so, i'll go and get them stretched another size bigger...until I like the size. I don't want super huge plugs...but i'm thinking and 8 gauge or a 6.

Anyhoo..I love my new piercing! Yay!
