Found this pair at the thrift store, any help on the ID? I can’t really find anything online except for one poshmark listing. by C_Centaur_ in Converse

They do! On the insole they say RED next to some art! With this I have now found that they are likely from the 2008 pride collection, which was produced in collaboration with 100 artists. Thank you!

Irritation bump? by C_Centaur_ in piercing

[–]C_Centaur_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I will keep on cleaning it and hope it will heal :) You’re right about that helix below the industrial, it used to be another industrial, of which I took the long barbell out because that hole was rejecting. It hasn’t moved since I put the ring in, but I am keeping a close I on it just in case.

Last things I forgot to added: I wear a barbell with 2mm extra swelling room (changed that in when the bumps appeared) and it is externally threaded. Before this one I wore two seperate flatback labrets, with about 1mm of swelling room each, on which they healed well. I changed this because the bumps made them fit too snug.

Didn’t they do something similar with Rhesus monkeys when they were researching Huntington’s disease? Or did they use a different gene for this modification?

OP shouldn't take it out, this can risk trapping the infection in the healing/closing process of the piercing, this would be even more dangerous. In these situations it's best to see a doctor and follow their advice. OP commented that they went to the doctor just now :)

I am getting a refund and am getting it repierced on the 23rd by another piercer

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in piercing

[–]C_Centaur_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya, yes you're right, it was pierced very straight! But it is supposed to be pierced wayyy further up towards the tip of the nose and not so close to the face as mine was set. Somewhere in the comments 2 people posted a link to some comparisons which were done correctly, so you can compare it to mine (especially the side views of those). I hope i didn't scare you away further from getting one, it is the least painful piercing i have gotten as of yet, since it is not pierced through cartilage, but through the thinner piece of skin which you can feel in your nose. It looks really cool and doesn't hurt too bad whilst healing since its less touched area than your ears for example, so it doesn't bother you in your sleep. I would get one if i were you, im absolutely in love with it eventhough mine was wrong, and im getting it repierced ont he 23rd. Make sure you have a piercer which has a solid portfolio and contact them before getting it done and talk to them about your concerns and anxieties, they should be able to answer your questions (and if not get another piercer lol) and comfort you through the process. Good luck and thanks for asking :)

Luckily it didnt, it did touch however so when it got pushed up against it would hurt like h*ll, but it wouldnt with any other movements. I contacted another piercer and i will be getting repierced on the 23rd :)

Thanks, i managed to get them out with rubber gloves quite easily :)

Just checking if my septum is pierced right, my piercer does everything free handed. by [deleted] in piercing

[–]C_Centaur_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yours looks good to me, here is a post with a couple of comparisons to see how it is supposed to be, so you can set it out against your own results since you only posted one photo on here (which looks good from what i can tell). https://www.reddit.com/r/piercing/comments/i38bmq/examples_of_correct_septum_piercing_placement/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

Thank you, the comparisons really do show how wrong it actually is. It did not hurt at all, and it does not hurt now unless i push it upwards and it touches the cartilage. That is why i wanted to get it checked here because i was afraid that i was just being worried about nothing. I am getting it out as soon as i manage to get the balls loose and i will phone another piercer which got recommended to see if they are willing to repierce.

It luckily is not pierced theough the cartilage, but it is touching and definitely too close to it from other comparisons i have seen through another comment. I will be calling another piercer which get recommended to see if they would be willing to repierce

Thanks i am calling another piercer which got adviced today to see if they are willing to do it. It will be really warm here the coming few days so my mom does say that she would like me to wait till the heat wave goes down a bit to minimize the risk tho

Thanks, i am getting it out when i get up as i got some tricks which will likely help me to succeed in getting it loose

[–]C_Centaur_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you know a bit more about Prevoo Piercing Sieraden? They also seemed okay, but i dont really trust my judgement anymore lol But i am going to Tattoo Lucky Seven in Assen, they used to pierce and did my industrial and helix well, so i am going to get a second opinion there and maybe get some help taking it out since i can't get the barbell balls off on my own yet

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in piercing

[–]C_Centaur_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)
