How to Get a Labia Piercing

More women today are getting their labia pierced for both aesthetic and pleasurable reasons. There are two places to put a labial piercing, the inner labia and the outer labia. You and your piercer can decide which part of your labia to pierce.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Decide which labia to get pierced, the inner or outer. The inner labia is more popular with a healing time between 2 and 4 weeks, while the outer labia heals somewhere between 2 and 4 months.

2. Check your local phone book for a list of piercing studios to visit. Piercing studios are generally lumped under tattoo studios in such listings.

3. Visit at least three studios and talk to their piercers. Discuss things like price and how long they have been piercing. A professional should answer all your questions without making you feel foolish.

4. After you have chosen a piercer set a time and day to get your labia pierced. If this is your first piercing set your appointment at a time when you will not feel rushed to get on with your day.

5. Follow all aftercare directions your piercer gives you. It is your best bet against getting an infection.

Tips & Warnings

• Most tattoo studios incorporate a piercer into their staff.
• Visiting with more than one piercer gives you more information than just talking to one.
• Make sure you eat at least an hour before you go to your appointment.
• Do hesitate to ask many questions while considering any type of piercing.
• If your partner also has genital piercings, be careful not to get the jewelry tangled.
