Second Thoughts

Actually a commission for taki

Background is a bit different from what I was after... I wanted to keep a realistic indoor feel, but that ended up having the backround look extremely plain and white, so I tried to toss a brownish into it to liven it up, but the blue shading just made that turn grey.

...so I tossed a brick wall texture onto it to make it look better and that'll have to do xD Hope that's okay. Otherwise, fairly happy. I'm quite fond of the method I've been using for clothing lately. It's very rough and simplified, but I like the results. Hopefully you folks do as well.

For those whom find this unclear, femtaki is going to get herself a special piercing. Looks like she's a little reluctant at the sight of the needle, though!

Lemme know if it's all okay.

    Clitoral hood piercings are easier than ears, actually. If you get them done right.

    That's only if you get your piercings done by drug users. Tell tale signs are a scent of cat urine in the parlor, or your piercist using a screw driver.

    HIV (AIDS) dies in air.
    There are things you can get.
    Professionals usually cleans/sanitizes the needle or uses a new one.

    And the use of a rubber needle holder improves the piercer's accuracy, speed, and reduces the risk of bodily fluid contact (even though they should be wearing single use gloves to begin with).

    Gonna make this clear and quick.
    A rubber stop on one end is fine since it prevents needle stick injury to the piercer, the piercer should always wear gloves, have government hygiene sterilization certificates and NOT be under the influence. Neither the piercer or the pierced can be under any influence as in a court it would be considered assault and criminal. The needles should be kept in sterile packaging and used once per piercing even if on the same individual. One needle, one hole. If needles are reused it must be in a government regulated autoclave and have regular maintenance and certification as well. No piercer or tattooist should be hesitant in showing you their certificates, equipment or explinaing the process. Hiv and bacteria I don't know if they die in air BUT would you be willing to take that risk? NO! As for the pain of each pierceing it is individual to the patients pain tolerance. some like me can get a lip piercing and have no issues, others cant even get blood drawn. Its individual.

    Only go to reputable piercers and artists in clean and safe enviornments with sterile equipment. My rule for all my tattoo loving and piercing family is simple "If it aint good enough to be confused as a doctors office with hygiene standards. it aint worth going to."
