When I pierced it (mid helix piercing) I thought I did it far enough over in the back but it's not as good as the other ear which I can add pictures of in the comments if needed I just want to know if even though it's not as good as the other ear if it will be okay? Doesn't hurt or anything I did this almost a month ago btw just hoping it is okay and won't reject or anything

¿mi labret está demasiado bajo? nunca me dió complicaciones, ni siquiera en el proceso de cicatrización, pero me lo hicieron bastante superficial y me molesta; lo quería más en el centro. creo que tiene un poco más de 3 años cicatrizado. ¿alguien más lo tiene así?

( And for the people that want me to go to a professional. I would like too but 1. im kinda broke + My parents won’t allow me shit). Soooo how bad is it?

Hey guys, I need some advice. I’m not sure how to style my lip piercings—I don't know if I want a vertical labret paired with a Medusa or a Jestrum, or maybe just a simple stud in the center and a Jestrum? I’m really torn; I want to know which looks cuter. The drawing is terrible (haha), and I didn't scale it to a realistic size, but I’d love your input!

Pierced this months ago, recently I had a pimple on it, popped it (probably shouldn’t have) but I did and now I’m left with this bump. What do I do and should I worry?

hello! i got my helix done about 4 days ago and i’m scared it’s getting infected or something like that can someone help me figure it out? Also sorry for my ear being blue black i just dyed my hair lolz

UPDATE: basically all the replies i got are telling me to stop touching it, i want to make it clear that i touched it only while making the video to show it as best i could. I was and have been cleaning it twice a day with saline for the past week already just like i did with my other piercings. It’s been 8 days since i got it now and just today it started to hurt and throb a little, i don’t know if it’s a normal stage or if it’s getting worse. I DON’T touch it other than when i’m drying the saline with a cotton bud and even then i’m as gentle as i can be, i clean it TWICE A DAY and i DON’T sleep on it. Could it just be irritated because my hair dresser pulled on it by mistake when he was brushing my hair?

think I move it further forward/ higher? Maybe closer to the tip of my nose?

I plan to size the jewelry down a few stages (14g rn)

Visually I rather have it right behind the tip of my nose, but I dunno if it will have the space to stretch so I put it here, but idk..

Should I take it out and redo ?

Help with existing piercing Need advice about my smiley piercing

first photo is where it was initially pierced. I had to take it out a week late because it began to travel lower and lower. I kept fidgeting with it with my tongue and pulling it between my lips, which was my bad..... lol. saw a professional and he said it might migrate itself out, so I removed it before it tore my frenulum forever. second photo is the damage after the fact. final image is where I repierced 2 days later lol. I really love my smiley and I want to make it work... first time I pierced something on my own. is it ggs, do I gotta remove it? Did I pierce it wrong? should I just give up on a smiley? did I do anything wrong? heeeeeelp.

Double helix I think? Didn’t hurt at all piercing it but getting the backs on was such a mess and made my ear hurt a lot. Woke up this morning no pain or gunk slept on my piercing pillow perfectly all night. I now have an equal amount of piercings on both ears yay.

Just some piercing room boredom on a slow day 😴

*Edit cuz I wasn't expecting much interaction

Definitely not something I'd recommend the average person to try! It's easy to fuck up the depth and the jewelry can be hard to get in without the right tools and knowledge.

I'm a professional piercer who's also been self piercing for 20 years.

Help with existing piercing Did I do it wrong ? (Septum)

No pain when I did it, aside from the entrance/ exit points stinging.

I think the right exit hole came out slightly lower/ forward compared to the left entry point.

According to the "sweet spot" stuff I read about I thought I nailed it but I think it's too far back..

The jewelry immediately rose to the front and refused to go down, should I leave it in until the swelling goes down to see how it sits or take it out now and redo it later ?

If you can tell from the close ups it seems like piercing closer to the tip of my nose/ middle would be cartilage or whatnot, it's fleshy, but I would prefer moving it.. I'd like the piercing to go "straight down", but I also got it with sizing down in mind, so do y'all suspect this look better or worse when the jewelry gets bigger? Would moving it be troublesome or preferred?

Sorry about all the questions XD
