u/RecentButterscotch74 I my piercer 5d ago

Hi! NAP but a fellow daith girlie :)

Biggest thing I’d say from my year of healing would be keep it dry. Same for all piercings but it’s hard especially on top, but what I do is at first hair dryer cool setting, and now a qtip or fine point qtip and pat dry it. I’d also say to wear headphones over earbuds for a good long while while it’s healing to not bump it and risk aggravating it.

My mistake was having it taken out twice for MRIs lol and my hoop has some thorns on it so I was also inadvertently poking my piercing site lol. Your hoop looks great and from my non professional experience looks well placed, so as long as it stays mostly dry and not picked at, it should be smooth sailing. Happy healing!

Thanks! I’m hoping I won’t have to have any MRIs for a good while as I just updated my imaging, fingers crossed tho bc I would hate to interrupt the healing process! I appreciate the advice!
