I gotchu girl. I got mine pierced like 6 years ago, and there’s not a single day I’ve regretted getting them! The first one isn’t bad, but the second one does sting quite a bit (not unbearable tho, my daith was FAR worse). I slept in and wore a pretty tight sports bra daily for about 6 months before they fully healed to protect them. My best advice is just wash them with unscented soap in the shower and don’t twist them or clean away the crust, it’s there for a reason and prevents infection

They were definitely sore for a few months but nothing awful imo. They just hurt like a bitch if you bump them when they’re still healing, so be careful with that. Be prepared to leave the basic barbells in for a while because taking them out too soon can really mess things up for you like with infection, allergic reaction, or rejection

Oh and if you have bigger boobs that shift when you lay down, BE SO SURE THE LINES ARE EVEN before they’re pierced. They’ll look crooked when you’re laying down for the actual piercing but make sure you stand up and look to see if they’re level
