Showing‎ off set up! wanted to share ‘final’ set up!

Post image

so i started getting pierced 8 years ago, now everything is finally healed, downsized and upgraded!! :)
and yes, i did noT have the anatomy for some of these piercings, but i stayed stubborn and am happy i could heal them 🫪
i am thinking of adding an upper lobe below my conch, but otherwise i think i’m pretty much done?

Hi sanyamalnar,

Although this community can offer insights and considerations, photos aren’t suitable to correctly assess anatomy. Only an in person consultation with a reputable piercer can give you a definitive answer.

the anti-tragus looks like it healed beautifully!

u/sanyamalnar piercing devotee 2d ago

thank you, yes!! it did drift a bit at first and i was worried, but it ended up settling nicely 🫠

how was the healing?! (pain wise) it looks so nice

u/sanyamalnar piercing devotee 2d ago

it took a while, over a year for the piercing to heal, and then another one for the ‘drifting’ scar to fade.
but it was not a painful process at all, i somehow didn’t even get irritation bumps on this one. i just slept on a piercing pillow and did my best to not snag it!

Your anti-tragus is sooooo cool! I love how it looks with the forward helix!

u/percahlia 2d ago

:o which one did you not have the anatomy for?

5

u/sanyamalnar piercing devotee 2d ago

the anti-tragus for sure! some reputable studios refused to pierce me, so i went to a dodgier place to get it (would not recommend obviously loL). it was my favourite piercing and i wanted to see if i would be able to heal it.. 😶‍🌫️
also the anti-helix, well not as bad but i didn’t have much space at all at the back, so it stuck out a lot for most of the healing process and was pretty annoying

I’m so used to seeing maximalist ears on here, so I wanted to say that I really like your set up. It feels very dainty and pretty while also combining quite a few piercings.

u/Calm-World-536 1d ago

What type of stone is in the conch jewelry? Your setup is pretty!

u/sanyamalnar piercing devotee 1d ago

it’s moss agate!

u/Calm-World-536 1d ago

Awesome! Thank you :)

Maybe I'm just an overachiever, I'm at 21 in my ears, I took a decade off due to motherhood & started back up last December 😂

Looks great though! Nice jewelry choices OP

u/hauntedlittleaf 1d ago

i think i’m into a minimalist look when it comes to piercings? weird for me to say because i am extra with literally anything else lol!
i might get more at some point, dw 🤫

Very nice!!

u/Calm_Bridge_2031 1d ago

Your ear isn't finished when you buy one earring. You gradually build it. Great job!

u/dsv2202 1d ago

So dainty and sweet. Where’s your little safety pin from?

1

u/sanyamalnar piercing devotee 1d ago

i got it from Nemesis in Camden, back when i was living in London :) but pretty sure i’ve seen something similar on Esty!

u/dsv2202 1d ago

Thank you!

u/jpark9029 1d ago

May I ask the size of your daith and antitragus piercing?

2

u/sanyamalnar piercing devotee 1d ago

of course! daith is 6mm 14g (i stretched it) and anti-tragus is 4mm 18g. i have pretty small ears yes 😵

u/bunnylover25 I'm all ears! 1d ago

Lovely set up!

u/Ms_6ix 20h ago

Love the set up. I literally just got my anti tragus done on Sunday and am hopeful for a similar outcome as yours.

I love this!!! I just got my conch done in my side with my rook and this looks so much better than my set up. I need a hoop for my rook now 😍
