Okay, so I’ve been thinking about getting a tash piercing for a while now. I mean, I already have a bunch of piercings on my ear lobes, but I wanted something a bit…different, you know? Something to spice things up. Body piercings are not new stuff, but it’s my body so I gotta make sure I really want it.
So, I started doing some digging. Turns out, body piercings can get rejected, especially surface piercings and the ones on your eyebrows, navel, and nipples. Tash piercings, apparently, are less likely to get rejected, but hey, it’s still possible. That got me a bit worried, not gonna lie.
Then there’s the whole issue of where to get it done. I mean, is it really worth it to pay extra to go to some fancy place? Or is any old piercing studio gonna be just as good? I was planning on starting with a plain gold hoop and then switching it out for something cooler once it’s all healed up. But who knows.
I started talking to my friend who has a ton of piercings, and she brought up something I hadn’t even thought about. She was like, “Girl, do you wear glasses?” And I do! She told me that the back of the tash piercing sits right where the arm of your glasses goes, and it can cause some major problems early on. That’s definitely something to consider.
I spent like a whole afternoon going down this rabbit hole of piercing forums and articles. I found out that piercing is a really old form of body modification. Basically, they make a hole in your body, and you put jewelry in it. Pretty straightforward, right? But there are so many different types of piercings, and each one has its own pros and cons. You can get them on any part of your body. And since these aren’t forever with me, I thought, why not?
After all that research, I finally decided to go for it. I booked an appointment at this place that had really good reviews. The piercer was super professional and explained everything to me. We talked about placement, jewelry options, and aftercare.
The actual piercing part was surprisingly quick. It definitely stung a bit, but it wasn’t unbearable. And now, a few weeks later, it’s healing up nicely. I’m already thinking about what kind of jewelry I want to get next.
So yeah, that’s my tash piercing story. It was a bit of a journey, but I’m really happy with how it turned out. If you’re thinking about getting a piercing, I’d say do your research, find a reputable piercer, and go for it! Just remember it’s your body, so do what feels right for you.
