aural obsession

Aren't you fed-up with garbage, full-of-shit sites where nobody actually communicates, such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter? Do you wish your old friends who've migrated to those sites would return to LiveJournal? The the_lj_revival community has been set up with that aim in mind, and you are invited to join it. If you are already on LiveJournal and still have a Facebook profile, and would like to see more people returning to LJ or setting up accounts here, we invite you to post a link to this community on your Facebook Timeline. If you would like to find out who is still using LiveJournal and make contact with those who are already here, you are invited to copy and paste the 'about me' questions on the profile page and post them with your answers to the community.

sorry for the shitty quality, via camera phone.

bone tunnels: 13/16"

i took out my 4g second holes.

im going to 7/8" wood plugs next.

im dying to get to that inch.

 

I finally got them up to a 4 and I'm liking them. Like I said...they aren't anything special...and they aren't huge but I like them. So now...any good ideas where I can find some good earrings??? lol

Ok so this might be a stupid question but I'm going to ask it anyways. See I've heard that Flared plugs are a pain (literally) to get in. A friend of mine told me that they hurt like crap when putting them in. I've never worn any...mostly cause I haven't found any I like but I've been finding some good ones lately and so now I'm curious.

Any advice or insight?

Thanks

i got my tragus pierced a week ago. it's really swollen.. but nothing is oozing out of it. is it infected?

last friday, got a 2g punch in my lower conch. they punched it a bit smaller and then stretched it, to keep it from bleeding. and we put a single flaired eyelet in it for now, to make healing easier, but in a couple months i'm going to have it switched out to a big ass barbell.

Hey, I just joined in hopes of some tips on how to go about this. I'm to a 0g now (lobes) and the tapers I bought this time around are very heavy. Not liking being smacked in the face by a titanium spiral every time I shake my head, I went and got some 0g flared plugs tonight. Can't get them in. I have no issue going up in size with tapers (duh), but these are the same size as the heavy tapers. Does it just take a bit of practice? I'm not sure if maybe trying to push them through wasn't the way to go about it or what. So should I ease them in at a certain angle? Possibly stupid questions, but I'm a bit stumped. Any advice? Thanks so much!

Check out my DIY earrings up for sale in my journal!!
Here's a picture of just one of the many pairs I have up for sale.

if I were to ungauge my ears, how would I go about doing that?

do I have to gauge back down or can I just take them out? they're just 6mm right now.
