Nape Piercing incorporated into your Lifestyle

Hi there,
This may seem like a rather random question but I’ve loved surface piercings for years and I’ve never quite found the right one for me until I saw a Nape Piercing on one of the guys that works at Alton Towers. Since that day and to this day I have been dying to get one, but I’ve slept on the idea now for a year and a half and I think I’m ready. My question is this … I have no problems with getting the piercing and looking after it, but I’m wanting to know what problems I might run into with it in my lifestyle, and if it would be detrimental for me. I’m an actor, and I don’t have a problem with the fact that “it will be visible for all auditions and what not”. My problem is that I’m still in training and we do lots of physical activities, and I do lots of physical activities as it is anyway. If I’m rolling around on the floor, and having to do backwards rolls, and neck rolls even once it’s healed, am I going to cause it severe irritation and/or stretching?
I’m also a big fan of water slides … what kinds of problems would this pose, or it just a case of being careful and covering up when necessary ??
Any information is greatfully received. I’m planning on getting it done at the beginning of the Easter Holidays so it has three weeks to get properly healed, but I’m going to Tenerife for a week and visiting a water park … Just doing my research and looking for answers!
Avid fan,
Robert J Southworth
Napes are pretty durable surface piercings when healed fully. I’d probably do it with a 10 ga flat titanium surface bar with flush disc ends and not too long of a length to assure the most durable piercing possible.
