from what i've heard ( and experienced with my new one and forward ) helix piercings are hard to heal and take ages to get a visible hole - just checked mine and my friend took a picture of it <3 ! only took like two - three years 🤒😓

also not sure if this is the right flair ; i Was going to leave it blank but wasn't able to ):

I’m going to be getting an industrial piercing this month and I’m hoping to have a setup like in this photo, I know it’s gonna take a while and I don’t want to rush into it so any advice helps

Showing off set up! My ears <3

All of the lower holes and a couple cartilage ones were done by myself in middle school… I used to have more but let a few close. The giant scar in the first pic is from a surface tragus I got a few years ago that that rejected (definitely the gnarliest piercing I’ve ever had). I’ve been doing a lot of opal lately and I love it.

would I look good with....? Do you think I’d suit stretched ears?

Would I suit stretched ears? I have really small ears…

I know my septum needs stretching too, currently have a 1.6mm retainer and a 1mm clicker in it, thicker jewellery is in the post.

Been thinking about a rook or a forward helix too. And maybe a nostril piercing 😜

Is this true? I feel strange not cleaning it, even with a saline solution. But if she says so…does anyone have any advice?

Hey friends!! Wanting some advice on potential piercings to add to my left ear to balance it out a bit more. The top of my ear feels very bare, and would love some suggestions on what could look good! Flat? High helix? Would love to do something fun!

Currently have my triple lobes, forward helix (was a double but it migrated and ripped out like 8 years ago lol), conch, and helix.

I wanted a belly button piercing and was shown this guideline. I told the piercer I changed my mind and needed more time to think. Would this be a correct guideline?

Troubleshooting/question existing piercing nose piercings hurt when it’s cold

Upvotes

Does anyone else get this?? When I inhale in the winter sometimes I feel very uncomfortable, like my nostrils sting. I think it’s air coming through the piercing holes a little?? Do y’all relate?? And how do u cope? Wearing a mask helps because the air around my nose is warm but not if it’s really chilly!

Are my ears balanced on their own and then as a pair? I’ve been working a long time to figure out what looks right. Think I’ve hit a good stopping point for now. Anything you would change/ add?

New mantis piercing pierced with Implant grade steel Anodized moonstone flat backs. Just want to know if they look good on me in your opinion or if I should take them out. I do plan on getting high nostrils done as well. (the permanent jewelry will eventually be 2 tiny yellow gold destas. Any advice on additional piercings you think would fit me are greatly appreciated, although i won’t do eyebrows again lol.

Just got it done. I love it. No issues so far. However I feel like I'm going to suck in too hard and swallow the back of the ring.

I got this “foward helix/front industrial” done about a week ago and the more I look at it the more the placement looks off. I don’t want to take it out because I like how unique it is but I don’t wanna fight with a piercing that isn’t viable to last. helpp

general piercing question Are these prices normal?

5 Upvotes

EDIT: The piercings were done in Portland. In October I got a single eyebrow piercings, and New Years day I got snake bites. For the eyebrow I paid ~$140 (If I'm remembering it correctly) and for the snake bites I paid ~$190 ($165 witout tip). I got titanium for both the piercings. Is this a normal price? What is the most you've ever paid for a piercing?
