Discussions on Piercing Options

In short, when we began, J was keen on being locked while I felt somewhat unsure. Currently, he mostly operates under the honor system; I only put him in his lock when I leave and he stays home. One main issue: one of his testicles is significantly smaller than the other. It handles summer well enough, but a little cold makes it (painfully, so they say) get pulled through the gap.

I’ve grown more fond of the concept of keeping him fully locked, which makes me very interested in using a glans cap secured by a piercing (this is what happens when you men show me your kinky sites—I learn new things).

To any of you who are pierced:

1. What type of piercing and device do you use?
2. How was the procedure like?
3. How did healing go? When could you wear a device instead of just a barbell, and when were you able to have sex again?
4. How did you locate a good piercer?
5. Any other advice? Would you do it over again if given the choice?
