i want to get the BB. I have the NB and even that hurts to much to do full force for me until i work up to it. i have pale and sensitive skin. is the BB really that painful?
My skin is so thin that my nipples are almost skin color.

My skin is just like yours. It is so pale and clear it is like flourescent white! i can see every blood vessel right through my skin. In the sun my nipples blend right into my white as snow skin. Anyway this machine can hurt if the suction level is abused. But by no means does it have to be painful. In fact it shouldn't be. We tend to go overboard with the suction level when we get excited about the swelling, or impatient for more. I actually find it quite soothing when the suciton level is right. and look forward to my sessions. Also if you use the wrong size domes it will hurt for a while until you build up a tolerance for them. The XL domes are notorious for this. But you do get used to them and until then you can get some silicone sheeting off ebay to cushion the rims.

I also have a "prison tan"! Kieyah is right, on low BB actually feels quite nice but on high enough to do anything useful it'll hurt without sheeting.
Build up the suction slowly and always try to use the biggest domes you can.
At times (especially when I used thinner sheeting) it felt like it was going to break my ribs. Interestingly it's only when I turn it up pretty much full that I feel it on the boobs. You need to use padding so that it's your boobs and not your ribs taking the pressure.
Good luck!
p.s. I've just done 16 weeks and my boobs look slightly tanned (and I have a bit of a dome shaped hickey mark above each) - will post when this goes away.
