Piercings

Are piercers obligated to re-pierce you if your snakebites weren't even? Like for free, or are you going to have to pay for the piercing again?

As soon as I got my snake bites, my friend said she always wanted them {lies}. I told her if she got them I was going to take mine out.

I find it quite annoying that when you get a new piercing, and then your someone you know wants it in the exact same place. It's just annoying.

I was the only one at my school for a good six months that mentioned getting any facial piercing besides the side of the nose (other chicks already had it) and little more than two months after I got the left side of my lip pierced one other person got it done. Now three people have lip piercings.


Wonder how many will have eyebrow piercings.

ME!

Seriously, when I pierced my own lip, other people did it too.

Sadly, they didn't have my luck and pierced it.... in the wrong place and didn't care for it. I was stupid, but not that extreme.

Don't they usually put a dot with marker where the piercing is to go and then show you in a mirror and ask you if that's where you want it and if it's even?
Cause that's what they did for my ears.

They did.
But the chick did it lower than the dot.
My mom was there and she even said the dot was lined up.
But when the chick pierced the right side, she didn't do it where the dot was.

If they value their representation they'll do it for free. When you get something re-pierced, you have to let the old piercing heal first usually, have you done that? I'd call the place you got it done at and ask them what their policy is on repiercing.

It's healed up yeah.

Thanks for the help both of you.

Ahhh, stretching.
Can someone help me with this?
I want to stretch my lobes to 6 or 4, not sure yet. But I have no idea what to use or how to do it. Any links to a full direction would be greatful, too.

Thanks! So wait, I basically have to shove things through my ear, one size at a time? -shivers- ow. How the hell will they fit? o_o

Metro Station:

my nose piercings pretty much fine but theres this kind of 'ring' or skin surrounding the hole which you cant see when i wear a stud but you can see it when i wear a hoop.
is it normal and will it go away?

Can you take a picture? I don't know what you mean by ring of skin.

Basically, yes. Tapers and lube make the whole process a lot easier than it sounds though, and minimizes pain.

They just slide right on in really, it's an odd feeling when they do, but if you go slow it should all be okay with minimal ouch.

Personally I wouldn't go back to that piercer again, find a new piercer and ask to see a portfolio of their work.

Ok, cool. Is there a specific... stretch I should start at? Cause, like, stretching from 22 to 20 would be kind of... useless, I guess xD
Oh, and can someone point me in the direction of a website that sells this stuff? -can't find any-

Skip one size instead of going to every size.

Skip one size instead of going to every size.

So 22 to 18, to 14, and so on?

You got it in one.

My ass is marking the spot myself.


And they're the only place around here that will do anyone under 16.
Even though it's perfectly legal by law.

Though, once you've reached 10, I wouldn't suggest skipping sizes.
Mainly because the difference in sizes gets bigger as the gauge grows.

www.bodyjewelleryshop.com is a really good site.
I've ordered from there before and always been pleased.

I want to get my lip or my eyebrow pierced, just not both. I can't decide which though. Anyone know which one is less painful? rofl

Ive had a million things pierced, and none of them were painful.


Except my industrial....I cried like a little kid. haha

But seriously, if the only reason you cant decide where you want to get pierced is because of pain, maybe you should take a step back and realize why you want to get pierced in the first place. The pain is really miniscule. I promise. haha
