Plugs, Tattoos, & Piercings Thread

[Alexandra V]

I have two lobe piercings in each ear, the bottom piercings are currently at 12g and I plan on going to about a 6g eventually.

I also have an eyebrow piercing, but I have to take it out and let it close soon because it's in the process of surfacing out after being caught on a flying pillow (long story, don't ask). Hoping to get my lip pierced in a couple months, with or without parental consent (although with is preferable!)

I don't have any tattoos yet, but I have the ones that I want planned out. I'm going to get a black and white tattoo of my first cat's face on the upper left part of my back, and a black and white of Maynard, my bp, on the back of my neck, as well as a Cree indian quote on my right fore arm ("Only after the last tree has been cut down, only after the last river has been poisoned, only after the last fish has been caught, only then will you find that money cannot be eaten.")

just did mine on tuesday. so far, the 0g was the most painful yet. i don't ever remember streching being this bad. not sure why 0g would be any different but it was....

It hurt because your ears weren't ready to be stretched.

i had my ears at 2g for two years.

also i have been wearing 2g hoops at home that are a bit heavy to try and strech my lobes for about a year and have been adding tea tree oil to them. the last time i had the hoops in, i could pull the hoops down and see a gap. this to me says my ears were ready.

When I got my snakebites done (at the same time) my lip swelled up so huge for about a week, it was ridiculous. I wasn't expecting it to be all that bad considering I didn't even feel anything at all when they did my labret and had no swelling what so ever. But I suppose being closer to the lip itself rather than being down further might have had something to do with that.
Crazy amounts of swelling for you?

Not really... My lip is about 1/2 swollen. But I have been avoiding touching/playing with it. I'm a bit surprised. But I love it
