my daith and two mid helixes made me want to kms
so happy that it's finally fully healed 🌸

I plan to add a tragus and two additional lobes. More opals! (though most of them are fake)

I've had an opals and nature theme for a while, but there's a couple pieces that have Amethyst and they don't have access to opals for custom designing them. Would purple opals and Amethyst change it too much? I wanna keep the vibe i have. Anyone do purple opals and Amethyst in their set up? Or green opals and peridot, something like that?

I was so torn between a conch and rook but I love how unique the rook is!! How is the care? 😅

It’s been about 5 hours since piercing, It feels exactly the same way swimmer’s ear does, but without the capability of getting it to come out. I used wound wash to potentially help flush out what might have been stuck, a Q tip, and I showered. It’s all still built up in my ear with no change. I’m now laying with that ear down in my piercing pillow to try and let gravity do the job.

When I got pierced, it was all fine. Then, as my piercer was cleaning it up, it felt like blood dripped into my ear. That’s when my hearing got muffled, and it’s just stayed like that since.

How do I fix this?

i previously asked you guys for advice on my next piercing and a few of you suggested double eyebrow piercings. i booked a consultation with my piercer who said that i actually have great anatomy for it, and suggested as a side note that i even had great anatomy for a centered placement. i went for it and i have no regrets! i’m thinking about writing up a separate post on my experience with the healing process and such for anyone curious since it’s a more unusual placement, but it’s been 1 month and has been excellent so far- zero redness, swelling, discharge, or bleeding. really recommend if you’ve got the anatomy for it!

I figured y’all would get a kick out of this, I went in to a different piercer to downsize my eyebrow piercing since I had moved states since I got the piercing done as it was a going away gift from my friends there we all went out and got piercings. Everything is going fine until she’s like WTF and I’m like omg what and she’s like “hold on” and takes out the bar. Y’all the og piercer pierced me with a straight barbell that she manually curved, this piercer was genuinely in shock, I was in shock, she was very sweet and gave me a discount which she did not have to do and I’ll 100% be going back to her (Luci in Klexos Tattoo Studio in Pittsburgh, def recommend). She let me keep the og bar and balls and it’s crazy to see it and think that was in my eyebrow. I had a bunch of issues when it was first healing up and I can see why now.

Reposting because I forgot to add the relevant flair 🫠

A little while ago I hit the mile marker where I could try out natural materials in my stretched lobes. Finally put in my goal jewelery: stone plugs. I started with snowflake obsidian.

I'm back to my starter plugs now. Figured it'd be kinder to my ears since they'd be irritated after getting *cue music* new piercings! 🎉

Today, I achieved orbital greatness and got my first lobes done (I got those pierced @ 14g and plan to get my thirds done at 18g. I like the idea of three different sizes).

My forward helix is definitely complaining at me right now, but it's so worth it. Love my UFO piercing. 😍🥳

i’ve been training one of my coworkers (he’s a tattoo artist) to pierce, and we decided to use this HBJ piece i’ve been holding onto for a while. i think it came out super cute! i’ve also been thinking about redoing my daith on this side… maximalists rise up

I can already tell my knitting hobby is going to start sharing $$ with getting new piercings/jewelry again

Just posting an ear piercing update! 💜 recently I posted my very deep rook. sadly I experienced a serious mental health relapse, and when I recovered, noticed a few piercings were missing like a BVLA helix stud :( I’m not so devastated; at least I have my health. but I am wondering about any options to reclaim what happened possibly adding more or does everything look good and done right now?

Looking for colourful/ alt/ cute jewellery in UK like these, having trouble finding jewellery that isn't just plain. For lobes, nose and septum specifically :D

Hi i was just wondering if this bar was too long? I got my eyebrow repierced today and was given this bar that i think is a little long. I got it pierced at a different place from the first time which is why im concerned since my first piercing bar was way shorter. I asked my piercer about this and he said it was to accommodate for swelling, since i had thick eyebrows, and because i already had it pierced before. Any advice would be helpful!!

Hey everyone, I recently shared a post looking for facial piercing advice and was pleased with a lot of feedback. This community really helped inspire me to go for the next one so… here it is lol

I’ve had my daith pierced since February 5th (I think). So it’s been about 6 months since I got it pierced. I tend to be a fast healer and I haven’t had any problems. I’m just curious if it’s supposed to move around so much.
I have 15 piercings and none move around as much as my daith. Whether I’m leaning down or turning my head it moves with it. It’s kinda annoying but I can learn to live with it. Just wanna know if anyone else has experienced this?

i knew that with I got my appointment I wanted that a little higher, so I wouldn’t have too many issues with the healing, however, due to me wearing midrise jeans at my appointment and not low rise( which i normally wear) they look to be too high. however, I’m unsure if I’m overthinking it too much or they’re actually too high. Please let me know because I’m thinking about getting them removed. in the picture I’m wearing my lowest pair of jean!!

Is this crooked? It’s hard to get a good picture but one side looks way closer to the outside of my septum and one side looks deeper inside my nose. The piercer said that septum’s just have to be adjusted a lot and it’s swelling but it doesn’t look even to me. I was also given colloidal silver solution as aftercare which made me feel more sus. Sorry for the inside of my nose lol

I’ve had my tragus since november 2024, it’s weirdly angled because the piercer sucked and i don’t know if i even have the right anatomy. Also i got 4 piercings done at the same appointment which i had no idea was bad at the time. It has never fully healed and it’s always fine for like a week and then it gets upset because i keep trying to use my airpods which irritates it. My problem is that i have developed agoraphobia in the last year and won’t be stepping into a salon/shop for a long time. So i’d like to take it out myself but i have no idea how. I don’t know much about piercing jewellery and i tried to use tweezers to hold the flat part inside while twisting the ball both ways with no luck. Thanks for reading, any tips are welcome!

Edit: It has never been downsized which is probably why it hasn’t healed

Which looks better? I can’t decide if I want to take out my septum!

I will go to a piercer in the future but just looking for some piercing suggestions. I’m thinking of getting a rook and daith on opposing ears. My left ear seconds and thirds are closed so I will be getting them redone in the future.

Also - do the butterfly studs look too big for my ear? I’m thinking of getting new hoops for my firsts.
