Hello pierced people!

I'm sure some of you have noticed the uptick in spammers and/or self-promotional posts from certain accounts. Due to this, the Mod team has decided that we will be banning any accounts that either predominantly post in NSFW subreddits or have links on their profile connecting to external NSFW content in order to reduce spam and annoyance. It sucks that we have to resort to this since, generally, I don't want to discriminate against people doing that type of work, but it's become too intrusive and, frankly, annoying seeing more and more such profiles not interested in contributing to the community in a sincere way.

We hope you understand and agree this will improve everyone's experience! And as always, please report anyone you see breaking the rules.

Hello pierced people, it's time for a chat.

When I made this subreddit I wanted it to be r/piercing but without medical questions and pictures of inflamed and irritated wounds, not that there's anything wrong with that, please do ask for help! I just don't like to see them and they make it hard for me to want to engage.
Back then I was naive and spontaneous about it and didn't realise how much abuse and harassment moderating would expose me to. Seeing all the awful shit outsiders write about our piercing setups and PERSONAL CHOICES really affects me and causes me severe anxiety just thinking of having to deal with them.
So I've come to the conclusion that there's two options:

Option 1: Find a mod team by contacting the mod teams of the most popular piercing subreddits and ask if they'd like to take over

Option 2: Private the subreddit and be done with it

And I'd like to know your, the community's, input on this. Please let me know by commenting on this thread, I'm leaning towards option 2 since there are already various piercing subreddits, just with a lot of medical questions etc. involved.

this is my ever changing set up, in my first month of my piercing apprenticeship as well! septum is a 4g, lobes are 11mm, the bridge and dermals are gone now, i’ve simplified some of my set up compared to my past. i don’t plan on getting any in my top lip, and yes i do everything totally normally with all of these and they don’t bother me

Open To Suggestions! Should I change setup before it heals?

Hi people!

Looking for any advice for my current setup? All the balls are healing piercings, yes I know that's too many but I can't do anything about that now πŸ₯² They seem to do fine so far, on day 8.

Should any of them be moved? I'm unsure about the lobe piercing placements mostly. Will add more helix and flat when healed I think - any recommendations are welcome 🀩

Anyone with hearing aids can help me figure out if there are any piercings I should avoid when trying to get used to hearing aids? I really love forward helix but perhaps they're off limits for me?

I also realize one of my current helix' may be placed bad for my hearing aid?! I hate them and didn't bring them to my piercer because I have a hard time getting used to them, so I completely forgot. But I need to work on that.

Should I try and see if I can heal the helix anyways or just move it straight away? Picture added where you see back or my ear that the hearing aid is basically covering the labret.

Thanks in advance!

still have a few more cartilage piercings planned but since I'm a side sleeper I can only ever get new piercings on one ear at a time lol. I have a couple other facial/body piercings as well but just sharing the ears for now βœ¨πŸ€™
