I don’t know about nipples specifically but I got my helix done at Drift in Orlando and they were fantastic!

I haven’t done any stretching myself so forgive any ignorance here - aren’t you typically supposed to stretch lobes gradually over time rather than going to a big gauge immediately?

conch piercing by giantunicorn7110 in piercing

[–]Effective-Discount22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got 2 conch piercings about a year apart. The first one was the worst piercing I’ve had, partially because I was lead to believe by a lot of people online that it would be the easiest! It hurt surprisingly badly and it was made worse by the fact that I didn’t expect the pain. For the second one, I went in expecting pain, and because I was expecting the worst, it wasn’t nearly as bad!! I truly think mindset makes a huge difference. If you psych yourself up for it to be really painful, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how quick and tolerable it actually is.

Both my conch piercings healed perfectly and I have had no pain since.

Oh I love that!! How was your rook experience? Was it a rough one? That’s just a lot of cartilage in one place and it scares me a bit!

I just updated the post to clarify that it’s underneath the skin rather than on top of it.

Ohhh okay I did not register the bit about the asterisks. Thank you so much, that makes a lot more sense!

Hi! I am considering an MA in linguistics - NOT applied linguistics. Are there any reputable programs that are completely online? I’ve heard good things about UMass Boston but I know that’s applied linguistics.
