I had my hood pierced, had to take it out for surgery that led to complications so I couldn't put it back in for 8 days. I couldn't get it back in due partially to the fact that the hole had all but closed and partially because I had abdominal surgery and couldn't bend over to put it in myself. I had to ask my sis to do it for me and DAYUM did it hurt!! She was like, "You are damned lucky that I love you so much!" LOL
I am soooooo glad she could get it back in because I love Love LOVE my hood pierce and can't imagine not having it.
