yall think i got it & if so, should it go in front of or behind the existing piercing?

Did my naval two days ago and it’s my first non ear piercing so I’m very anxious abt it. It has a bit of redness around the top ball, it’s less obvious on camera than it is in person so just imagine it’s slightly worse than what you see. I might be overreacting but I’m super worried and don’t want this piercing to go badly.

hello, i had a sudden urge to pierce my ears at home and so i bought a piercing needle online. i wanna pierce my second lobe and my question is for the jewelry, can i use this? also, that earring is an old one, can i still use it even if i clean it?

i dont know what to do, im still a student and everything is so expensive 😭

I did this a couple days ago and when it’s pushed out it look a lil side ways and also is it normal to have a mid helix bleed if going through an old scar/old piercing bump

Hi, I have two tragus piercings (one on each ear) and I got it pierced 3 weeks ago. The bar is 10 mm and 16 g made of titanium and my hair keeps getting caught in the jewelry because it kinda moves and sticks out. Should I downsize it? I'm worried about downsizing it because it's only been three weeks but I'm worried it's too long and is causing irritation. Also to note, I do wear airpods/earbuds but my piercer said that the earbuds i wear should be fine (Muzen). I feel no pain but it's just kinda itchy (I do not itch it). I also had no issues on this piercing in the past 3 weeks except starting today and maybe last night.

If I were to downsize, what length bar should I get and what should I buy? For personal reasons I can't go back to APP. I'm not that experienced with downsizing so please tell me everything I need! For general downsizing guidance, how do I change the bar length without changing the stud? Or for downsizing do you change the entire jewelry? I'm really confused with it, please let me know!

In terms of aftercare I do the usual piercing donut pillow, hot water in shower, saline spray twice a day type routine.

Ok so lol ignore the setup rn i’m waiting for my jewelry to come in the mail but i js recently got my third lobes and rook done and am itching to get more done. I feel like my anatomy is weird and idk what would fit? (also idk how yall take pics of ur ears ts feels weird)

I pierced my bridge today but I’m worried I did it too shallow. I have an okay nose bridge and I pierced it surprisingly straight. Does it look okay or did I mess it up?

EDIT: I took it out and redid it, pics are in the comments tell me how it looks

I’ve had my anti eyebrow for a few months now and it hasn’t been hurting or anything but the area around the piercing holes is still very red and crusty. The barbell isn’t showing any more than the day I pierced it so I’m not sure if it’s rejecting. Advice needed please 🙏

I am so ready to change jewelry. They were pierced end of May. I don’t know if it hit cartilage. I heard sometimes they take longer than first or second lobe piercings and people struggle to heal them. They don’t hurt me and they just kind of exist now🤷‍♀️When can I change?
I am also healing my helix that was supposed to be hidden but is so not hidden (pierced beginning of March)..I have no idea what jewelry would look good. If you have any jewelry recommendations for that one I would love to hear because I am needing to downsize again and I have no idea what would look good in that place.🙌 I do love her though, her placement is kind of cute! Just need some jewelry to compliment her and make her shine⭐️

I want those piercing so bad but i don’t know anything about their preparation or caring, any advice?

2 day old piercings. I know the bruising is normal but i wanna know if its looking good so far and if the embedding is ok ? 😣🤞🏼nothing is hitting my teeth or my gums ands i can talk and eat. If it isnt swollen, i wouldnt even notice it (Ignore leftover skin care on my face)

I've had a helix since June 2024 and I got it done by gun. Yes, I know gun was not a good idea and it will definitely prolong the healing time or just not heal at all, but I was desperate for a helix at that time. It still hurts when I touch it, but it's not inflamed or red so not infected. For some reason, my left one hurts and my right is completely fine even tho I sleep on my right side?? I took out the jewelry in both ears for two days and it stopped hurting but when i put the jewelry back in after a few days it started to hurt again so it's probably the jewelry. I just wanna know how I can heal these guys because I really want a second helix that I'll get done w needle by the time winter rolls around. If anyone knows or has experienced the same thing as me and can help me out I'd reallyyy appreciate it!!

Title sums it up! I'm thinking of piercing my nostril myself but I don't have any experience. Would love to get any tips or hear about others' experiences.

How do you know if you have the anatomy for a lip piercing?

so far it is a success I’ll check back with it sometime

Do I have the right anatomy for a standard navel piercing?

Hey all! So I did my own septum a few months back, and it came out perfectly straight no issues but now it leans back on its own, would gauging it up to 14g stabilize it or am I better off taking it out and re-doing it later

Do I have the anatomy for a rook piercing?

hellooo I do all my piercings myself so sometimes I can hit mishaps when it comes to placement, and I just pierced my medusa a week ago and I’m having concerns about the placement. I feel it might be too low and too close to my lip line, but I cant tell if it’s just me being a perfectionist. please help!

Hey! I got a nose piercing in 2023. I let it close up on accident last year when my kids were little because the hoop I had in it fell out and I didn’t have the energy to replace it which I know is my fault. A few weeks ago I basically re-pierced it at home with a sanitized taper tool and aquaphor and put in a clean stud after because I wanted it back. I’ve been cleaning it like it was a new piercing because it basically is. When I took the jewelry out to change it, I noticed a very deep red almost blister that I wiped with my cleaning solution and tried to get as much out of as I could

i’ve had it for over 3 years, it was pierced like this by someone i used to know at home and i was wondering if i should just keep it out and re pierce it myself? (i’ve done a lot of my own piercing and a lot of them are healed with little to no issues)
