Can anybody recommend anywhere in or around the East Midlands for a VCH? Experience of the piercer is more important to me than the cost / location, however somewhere reasonably priced near Loughborough would be nice.

I can unrecommend Access All Areas in Nottingham - JP there did mine and it wasn't a great experience. In case you think I'm biased, there are experiences on BME who agree with this.

But if you want a daytrip to London then Darren is amazing - he did my fourchette and that's a piercing not many piercers can do.

Thank you, I don't really have time to travel to London at the moment (grr uni work) but I've been wanting to get it done for a while so could probably wait.

Got my Tragus done yesterday (First piercing) and I LOVE it. Can't wait to get something else. Not sure what else I should get though...

It didn't hurt while it was being done (Although, when she was pulling string through it, I felt like I was going to have a stroke), but it's really sore now.

Yeah I was thinking this.
Cannula, more often used by piercers in Europe

Even so, a good piercer would explain the procedure and not lie to say it's string

They may have done - I just wasn't listening.
When can I change the stud that they put in to something else?

When I had my cartilages and tragus done, I thought I felt that they were pulling something through. These were all done in the same studio. Hmm. Definitely wasn't string though!!

They're a great studio, had no problems with them. Thinking about getting my septum done now but with already having my lip pierced... I'm not sure if that would be too much...
