Plugs, Tattoos, & Piercings Thread

[Aleria]

I'm a professional piercer, if you're going to STRETCH your ears go see a piercer. They'll usually only charge you a minimum fee (like $5) and they'll know if your ears are ready to be stretched or not. Way too many people stretch too soon and end up tearing their ears which causes scar tissue making it harder to stretch. Stretching should only cause a slight burning sensation, it shouldn't bleed or hurt terribly.

I only have 3 piercings now (nose, 6g conch and 6g prince albert) but at one point I had over 30 or so. I'm covered in tattoos from my head to my feet.

As for the comments about bleeding during a tattoo... everyones body reacts different. Some customers bleed more than others, some body parts will bleed more than others, you never really know what's going to happen.

PS. some of the people in here need to research before getting tattooed... lots of poorly done stuff.

I've never really seen a need to go to a professional just to stretch, to scalpel straight up to a certain size, yes, but if you read the care guides on the major tat/piercing sites they will give you proper information. A lot of times you can just get info from a piercer, they usually have no issue guiding you along if you choose to do the stretching yourself.
Of course it's never recommended to stretch while a piercing is still healing, you always need for it to be fully healed and DO NOT RUSH IT. If it hurts you're doing it wrong and will do damage, end up with scar tissue and possibly even worse a blow out(not pretty).

This is my pisces tatoo




I eventually will have more, I also have a little chinese thing on my hip.
and my ears are currently a 6g. I don't think I'm gonna go bigger - I'm afraid of them never going back to normal lol

My boyfriend Kevin came up with the design, and i just plan on adding their date of birth right under the heart.

Some wicked tats on here! LOVE the Indian ornamental tarantula.

Eventually I'll be getting tongue and nose piercings, plus a tattoo of mojave markings down my spine (only tattoo idea I've had for more than two years, so only one I'm comfortable making plans on )

In memory of my rottweiler who passed away back in 2003.

And the piercing.

Just an industrial.
I want more, but it won't happen with my job. I could get my tongue done, and I'm still debating it... but I just don't know. If I could, I would be getting my bridge, and snake bites done. But even if I could get my bridge done, I don't have enough skin for it to get done, such a bummer.

I want "Jager" tattoo'd on the inside of my lip. Does it hurt any worse than a reg tattoo?? I've got 5 but thats seems even more painful lol
