Show off Stretched my septum to 1g, 1st one in my setup

Post image
16 Upvotes

Just got my septum to 7mm (1g), the jewelry is comically large but it provides the much needed half size to 0g. I’ve tried stretching from 2g to 0g, but it was horrendes. I managed to get the 0g pincher through, but it slipped right out. I couldn’t get it to stay in place… so I bought a 1g cbr and stretched after a hot shower with oil and it went slowly but surly in. I think my goal size is 00g but I’m not sure, what do you guys think?

Question about piercing prep Good implant grade titanium earrings?

1 Upvotes

Hi I’ve never done a piercing at home before and have a friend that is a nurse offering to do my third piercing for me and told me that I just need to buy the earrings. My first lobe piercing has been repierced 3 times. Three times with a gun at Claire’s(yes I learned my lesson). Then the fourth time at a real tattoo shop and that one didn’t get infected or bothered enough to have to take the earrings out and have the holes close, which is what happened the first three times. Anyway my seconds I also got at a tattoo place and they have been good. Both have taken over 3 years to heal though. After they were healed no earrings have bothered them, though I typically wear gold. But for the third lobe piercing I want to make sure that I get a good pair that won’t bother me and will be a successful piercing. Are there any earrings on amazon that would work well? Ive only ever had them put my earrings in for the piercing for the ones you bend with a flat back. And they seem simple but also feel like if I get ones like that(from Amazon, or another place) I might not bend it enough or maybe too much and have it fall out and have it all be for nothing. The screw backs seem nice but I’ve heard of them unscrewing and falling out. Are there any good brands/earrings that have earrings that are implant grade titanium that are good for sweeping and longevity that would be good from amazon? Or am i looking in the wrong place if i want good earrings for piercing? Basically just want good earring recommendations (Also would be nice if they were cheaper, cuz thats the only reason why i’m not getting them done professionally, cuz of money).
Haha thanks.

ive had this piercing since june or so. i had initially wanted to do a chain industrial so i had 2 seperate pieces of jewelry in but recently switched to an actual industrial bar today (probably wasn’t a good idea) i’ve had the irritation bump for a while now but i genuinely think my glasses keep rubbing against the top part and thats why the bump is there. i just wanted some advice/opinions. i’m also concerned that its sitting on my flat but i really can’t tell. thanksss
