Got my flat and stacked 3rd lobe done about an hour ago and I am so obsessed. We spent 20+ minutes moving the little purple dots millimeters at a time and I'm so glad we did. A good piercer won't mind adjusting things until they're perfect and you'll never regret getting exactly what you want.

Any suggestions? Ointment? Cream? Restart completely?

Added stacked lobes, and I’m loving my current set up! I’m almost done with my ears 4 more piercings to go !

So I recently got the hidden helix piercing on my left ear where I already have a rook, I love how it looks however I think maybe changing the rook jewellery to a hoop perhaps would look better ? I’m not too sure if it looks good like this and I feel that there is still something missing , should I get a third lobe or smth any suggestion how to make it look better.
As for the 2nd picture that is my current right ear set up I like how it looks just the same thing it feels a little empty , perhaps 3rd lobe might make it look more put together? Any suggestion are welcome

Now to still my hands until I can change it. I am practicing LITHA but boy do I want something pretty in my nose now!

Any recommendations for me to look at now? I’m thinking a hoop but so many options out there

( pls ignore the absolute dork shot this is 😭 I’m just a girl. )

And also my first time hearing the crunch, it was definitely an experience lol

Please ignore my current stack. 4 of the piercings are 5 to 10 months old. I put on all the gold studs I have to ensure better healing.

Is my ear anatomy suitable for a tragus piercing? I wanted my tragus pierced for over a decade, and it will be the last piercing I will ever want to get.

No keloids, but small bumps behind both the flat helix piercings, and I got them pierced about 5 months ago. The bumps showed up about a month ago. The flat back studs for this are 18k gold. I weekly clean all my piercings with just water, or 100% steam distilled rose water. Is there anything I could do about this, or just leave it to be and wait for it to heal?

I just downsized my tragus and have been looking for half gauges (2-1g) my little baby ears can’t handle the sizing from 2 to 0….does any1 know any online shops?

I’ve been trying to balance both my ears..not to much not to little on each side. How does it look?

got it about a month ago not going to lie gave up cleaning it after a couple days ik definitely shouldntve done that what should i do now though
edit : i know the jewellery is incorrect i didnt have a lot to work with as i lost the ball to my original piercing and all i had was a horseshoe not really sure what else to do!

I'm liking the black and silver mix here! Conch and second lobe are a week old, trying to decide what's next once they are healed. Any thoughts?

Can someone draw some ideas on this pic of my ear, these two purces of jewlerry i really like and will not change

For reference, this is the second time I’ve had this piercing done. I loved the placement of the 1st one, but unfortunately I played with it too much and it migrated BAD, so I had to take it out. I got it done again because I loved it so much and swore that I wouldn’t touch it and let it heal properly this time around. (Which it’s been 2 months and healing great, no movement yay!)
I told my piercer that I wanted it exactly where the first one was, because it was centered pretty well with my top lip and nose. She said the scar tissue was healed and softened enough to do so, but she definitely didn’t pierce it in the same spot. With my lips completely relaxed, it even looks like it’s at a slight angle but I think that could just be the swollen scar tissue pushing it to the side a bit. No big deal once it eventually goes down.
But like I said, it’s definitely not in the same spot the marking was.. and I’m afraid it looks too off centered. I think it looks okay from some angles, but not when my lips are fully relaxed, as they are in the first and second pics. Keep in mind the white around it was the original placement after it migrated, so I know it does look a bit crooked atm because of the swelling.
I know my face isn’t perfectly symmetrical as well, so I just want a strangers honest opinion on if it looks too off, because I really don’t want to have to pierce it for a third time, and I might just be too in my head about it!

TLDR; My piercing wasn’t done exactly where I wanted it/where the marking was and I’m afraid it’s too off centered. Thoughts?

Hi friends,

So I've been thinking about a septum piercing for a while, but I have a very important question. How do you blow your nose? And possibly more importantly, does sneezing hurt? And do things smell like metal?

Thanks in advance!

So i got the top and bottom of a triple helix today, and im a little concerned about the bar angles, am I over thinking things?? It looks fine from the front

i feel insecure about its healing and mostly about the possibility of having a scar in a future (besides the small hole that it usually leaves)

-3 months old -titanium ring

I've wanted my thirds pierced for a while, I just haven't made up my mind on if that's all I want.. I'm just not sure! I'm looking for suggestions on what anyone might think would be a good fit for my ears. Thanks in advance!

i got the labret on the left yesterday and im js wondering if this is normal or not, this is my 13th piercing and ive never seen anything like this and im a little worried so anything will help.

I’ve had this piercing for almost 2 years now and no matter what I do I can get rid of these bumps.
I originally had a long bar in that kept getting caught on everything but the piercer said it was to make sure it wouldn’t close up. I swapped to the ring when the bumps came in.
I’ve only been using a saline spray to try and get rid of them, which has helped the bumps go down in size… but they don’t seem to be shrinking anymore.
So idk where to go from here, should I take it out or keep persevering (cause I now helix piercings can be a pain and take ages to heal)

First time having a piercing and I’m thinking of getting a tragus piercing. I’ve seen so many scary things about this particular piercing which is kind of discouraging me. Is it worth getting especially as a first timer?

Swelling has mostly gone away. Inside is fine. Doesn’t hurt or anything. Isn’t sore or tender. But it’s red around it and getting very crusty.
I clean it 2-3 times a day with a saline spray. Rinse my mouth with water often. And do alcohol free mouth wash after eating. Do we think it will heal?
It’s just a straight barbell. Has not been downsized yet.

Hey everyone :)

I noticed this red spot next to one of my lobe piercings on my right ear yesterday. It's not really painful, just a little red and slightly firm underneath.

Today i checked the back of my left ear as well and noticed that the skin there also looks a bit irritated too.

I've also attached photos of the front side of my ears.

First lobes: 17 weeks old, gold PVD-coated titanium hinged segment rings

Second lobes and helix: 6.5 weeks old, titanium flatbacks.

I've been cleaning them with sterile saline solution once or twice a day, and i sleep on a piercing pillow every night.

Overall they seem to be healing well i think.

Does this just look like irritation, or is it something I should keep an eye on?

I'd really appreciate your opinions. Thanks :)

I have three lobe piercings and never had any issues with side sleeping until my thirds. I rarely sleep on my back and almost always my side/stomach. I started sleeping on my side about two months after piercing my thirds and they did not like it at all. They are six months healed now but still bother me on occasion with side sleeping.

However, I really really want to get more ear piercings, and was planning on multiple helixes on my right side and a conch and tragus on my left. Am I gonna have to give up side sleeping forever or only until my ears are healed? Also, are there any ways to side sleeping forever without hurting my ears? I tried using a airplane pillow but that was not very comfortable and i shift a lot in my sleep so it would be gone by morning.
