Nipple piercings can go from basic to extreme
August 21, 2004

Most people start with pretty basic nipple piercings, going for
the standard barbells at the back of the nipple, and some people are
satisfied with that. They may change it up with the addition of
nipple shields or try some new nipple ring styles occasionally, but
they stick with fairly standard 14 gauge nipple piercings and love
them.
Others decide they would like something a bit more individual, a
bit more extreme for their nipple piercings. Men especially like
something that’s a bit bolder, and will often move up to larger
gauges. Stretching to an 8 or 6 gauge or more means they can put in
more substantial hardware for a seriously masculine look. With
long-term commitment and serious care, nipples can be stretched to
gauges as low as 4 or less, although this is less common than the
mid-range.
Multiple nipple piercings are also enjoyed by some. It seems that
once you’ve nipple rings done, sometimes you can’t get enough. If
horizontal bars were put in the first time, vertical bars are often
put in the second time around. Others, knowing they want multiple
piercings right off, will get criss-cross bars put in like X’s.
You can even stretch the nipples into larger gauge horizontal
piercings with a bar or ring through it, and then have another,
small gauge piercing done directly behind it vertically through the
stretched flesh between the chest wall and the outer, pierced nipple
area.
Obviously, nipple piercings aren’t just a matter of going in and
saying “I want a nipple ring,” anymore. You need to do some research
and understand what you want the true end result to be – there are
so many options to choose from!
