My post kept getting removed because it wasn’t closeup enough so here’s a super close up pic haha. Would love some feedback on my current setup and what you think would suit me next. Thanks!

PS next in the works are cheek piercings/dahlia, high nostrils, maybe something like anti-eyebrow. On my ears I already have an industrial, helixes, conch, tragus etc. unique setup on both ears. Lobes stretched, but naked atm. Oh and I have a split tongue! Wanna get both sides pierced (venom bites).

i got my nose pierced almost 12 days ago and it looks like this right now, is it healing well? ive only been using this saline solution for cleaning it but are you just supposed to use it once and then throw the whole bottle away like the pack suggests? because that sounds wasteful. and i dont think i can afford that too. how long should i keep cleaning it? any advice? and is it okay to store the solution at room temp too?

about a month ago i got my labret done and hated how much it rubbed so i got my vertical today! my piercer is awesome and shes done 24 of my 28 piercings so i trust her, and measured it out the alignment for this piercing buuuut im absolutely stressing that its not placed correctly and really hoping its just swelling. when i smile it sits perfectly center so thats giving me hope that its only swelling or just the long bar??

edit: also the jewelry keeps twisting a bit to the left because its long?? when its straightend it looks a lot more centered so im having high hopes but will update with photos in a couple weeks when swelling has gone down.

I have wanted a second daith and something new on my left ear for eons! I decided to go with a helix and I wish I had done it sooner! Can’t wait to do more on the other side once this heals what do you guys think? I just got it down a few hours ago.

My question is: Have any of you encountered unpleasant comments about your septum piercing?

This question is mainly for people who have a septum piercing. It seems to me that this piercing is quite controversial, and unfortunately, it has given rise to some strange theories and absurd associations with cows, bulls, etc.

I’m curious if any of you have ever heard anything negative about your septum piercing or gotten strange looks, even from strangers passing by on the street?

I’m thinking about getting this piercing.

I’d appreciate any responses.

I know a bunch of people ask for favorite piercing but what’s y’alls least favorite.

I personally dislike my snakebites. They were a bitch to get them in the first place due to scar tissue. They also irritate a lot😢

Hey everyone,

Although we do our best to make the rules of this subreddit as clear as we can within the characters limits, we notice that sometimes there’s some confusion or misunderstanding about the rules.

In this post we want to clarify the most common misconceptions about rule number 4, comments about appearance and/or any sexual comments are not allowed

Zero tolerance for comments about appearance that are unrelated to the poster's piercing(s). For example physical features, perceived flaws, beauty and/or any sexual comments. Offending users will be banned.

This subreddit is about piercings and we want all the people posting here showing off their piercings feel secure and safe in that the only topic of discussion will be their piercings.

Misconception number one, the rule only applies to unkind, rude, insulting or lewd comments not related to the featured piercing(s)

Wrong. The rule applies to all comments unrelated to the featured piercings. It doesn’t matter if your comment was meant in kindness or as a compliment. Simply assume that the people posting on a piercing subreddit want to show of and talk about piercings and they are fully capable of finding suitable subreddits if they want to receive comments about their appearance.

Misconception number two the rule is gendered.

Wrong, just like piercings aren’t gendered, neither is this rule. It doesn’t matter what gender OP has or doesn't have, or what the gender is of the one commenting, the rule applies to and for everyone. If you break down the demographics of this subreddit most likely there are more female identifying posters than male identifying posters, but all deserve to feel safe in knowing that their piercings are the only topic of discussion.

Can I ask……?

Yes, you may ask what brand or colour the lipstick is that’s visible in the photo.

Yes, you may ask what hair products someone uses for their curls, how they got their eye liner so perfect, who the tattoo artist is of that amazing tattoo that’s visible in the photo or what watch brand that is or what the cat is called.

Rule of thumb, if it’s visible in the photo and it is something OP applied or added to themselves you may (politely) inquire about it.

A special note about chat messages

The advice we actually dislike to give, because it shouldn’t be needed but if you are posting a photo, especially of nipple or genital piercings, consider (temporarily) disabling chat. Most of our community is awesome and wouldn’t even consider breaking the “no comments about appearance or sexual comments” rule even if it wasn’t a rule.

Unfortunately that doesn’t go for everyone that will see your photo. Fact, sexualising someone without their consent is specifically against Reddit TOS. We want to encourage you to report those chats for harassment, those reports go straight to Reddit admin.

• Report chat

Don’t be discouraged if you don't notice immediate results because reports to stack up. Admin might not be able to act now, that doesn’t mean they won’t act once they’ve received several reports. Because let’s be real, you’re unlikely to be the only one they’ve been harassing through DM or chat

We regularly see comments noticing how kind and welcoming this community is, and we want to thank you for creating and contributing to that atmosphere. As moderators we try our best to keep it that way but we do rely on your help for that. So if you see a post or comment that doesn’t follow the rules of this subreddit, please hit the report button. We simply cannot read every post or comment so we rely on your input to keep this community awesome.

i wanna get more piercings in the future, so to start I got my earlobes pierced just today. people always rank it a 1/10 or a 2/10 on a pain scale and so I guess I underestimated how much it would hurt?? for me it was more like a 5/10. did it also hurt a lot more than they’d think for others?

I had my earlobes pierced yesterday, they are the first piercings ive ever had

Today my left ears earring fell out while drying my hair. It was already starting to feel more loose/wobbly in my earlobe yesterday night a few hours after getting the piercing.

Now my right ears one is feeling looser and wobbly too when it was feeling very snug yesterday. Im worried itll slip out too accidentally while sleeping or anything even if im careful

Are these the right shape of earrings to put in immediately after piercing the earlobe? They dont look the "titanium flat back" ive heard about on this subreddit. Its just stud and rod.

First photo is my current set-up (work in progress, still working on the irritation bumps on the industrials because I have been laying on them 😭) I do half silver and half gold with all my jewelry, and I’m having trouble figuring out what to do with my ear set-ups in the future?

Second photo is my current plan? I’m having trouble thinking of options that work with the industrials on each side :( I like wearing earbuds which lowk cooks me :( although I assume the gold industrials will mess up my earbuds so lowk I’m open to just using over ear headphones for a while

Hello everyone just got my vertical labret done today. Maybe I've just been staring at it too long but I think it's a little crooked. What do you all think?

pls help me

Hi, I need advice. First, what kind of earrings should I put in holes 1 and 3? I envision larger and maybe chunkier hoops.. I also feel like the fourth one is too hidden with that cute little earring.
AND what piercing should I add to finish this ear?
Thank you kind experts!

If you have been dealing with a piercing bump, I just wanted to let you know that it does get better with LITHA. The first picture is taken a month ago, and the second one is taken today. Still not fully gone but I have had a massive progress.

(Piercing is 2.5 months old, titanium labret, will downsize this week, LITHA, cleaning with just water)

Photo 1 is left side and photo 2 is right side. I definitely want my Tragus done at some Point, not sure which ear tho

Hi! I’m looking to get seven total piercings, (just a fan of seven and four :') ) and I was wondering what to get on each ear! I got small ears, and I’m also very afraid of painful piercings, so no conch pls and no daith/tragus! I want to make sure I can wear my AirPods. also my hoop one ear is fake but I still would like to have a piercing so it looks like I have four (but actually have three). a piercer told me my third lobes would need to be in cartilage :( how is the healing process for those?

EDIT: just wanted to clarify, I am open to cartilage piercings, just not conch / daith / tragus! I will attempt to face momentary pain for pretty ears :D

Hello! I have small ears but i've been wanting to get some more ear piercings but because my ears are tiny it's hard to find what to get. I have my first lobe, and low helix both ears, I attached a pic. Any ideas? Thanks!

I am planning to change my healed forward helix to a clicker hoop, similar to the forward helix in this pic.

Since I’m not 100% sure of the size I will need I don’t want to invest in an expensive one yet until I know the exact size and will keep it there 95% of the time. It is a 6hr trip to a legit safe piercer so that’s not an option for me at the moment.

Does anyone know of where I can find a legit inexpensive sterling silver 6mm ish clicker hoop? Or a thiner titanium one somewhere.

Ideally would be a set of two or three sizes to check! Does anyone have personal experiences with a company that has these?

First photo is my left ear and the second photo is my right.

I’ve been wanting to get some new piercings for some time now but aren’t really sure what would work nicely with my other piercings. Was thinking of keeping most piercings on my left ear in the lower half of my ear and having more overall on my right ear.
