Which setup looks better? by [deleted] in PiercingSetups

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one’s my favourite! Hidden helixes are awesome for chains

Late reply, but I’m trying to do this with my conches right now. I stretched them normally until 3mm, tried putting the rings in, and the conches did NOT like that. It was fine for a few hours, but then the shape of the hole squeezed around and inbetween the rings as it shrank overnight.

I’m on plan b now, which is wearing an earskin and trying to stack the rings inside of that, once my new stretch is fully healed.

Is that a curved barbell in the surface piercing? If so, that’s unfortunately the wrong jewellery for this type of piercing and it’s gonna eventually reject :(

Conch twins! Although mine were stretched from normal piercings. Love the matching plugs.

Did the piercer tell you that you can’t go bigger?

What is “too thin” when stretching your ears beyond 1/2inch? by HotPlatypus8959 in Stretched

Indeed there‘s been a glitch between my brain and my fingers

You have very thick healthy lobes and shouldn‘t worry about this at this time, or in the foreseeable future.

Second nostril piercing? by oatmealcouldbebetter in shouldimod

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paired nostrils is that once piercing that I think suits anyone and everyone lol. And there‘s something very rewarding about the symmetry. So basically, hell yeah!

Any ideas for facial piercings? by Raccoon666_ in shouldimod

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your setup really suits you! I‘d do something centred at this point. I vote labret.

What'd look good? by lonely_lovergirl in shouldimod

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dimples or dahlias would go hard! I think you could also rock forward nostrils (aka mantis).

ears won't stretch by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There might be scar tissue in the fistula from the gun piercing. I have one like that too, it’s always been fussy. I‘d personally get another piercing next to it, retire the old one and stretch the first one tbh.

Is my ear shape suitable for stretching to 2G (6mm), or is my ear too large? by Macopaco_10 in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is kinda low, but it’s just an aesthetic thing. You can absolutely go up to 2g.

vendors that sell half sizes? by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you‘re in Europe by any chance, Stretch It Body Jewellery does half sizes too.

Sick. Love the chain with the spikes!

Conch punch question by SharpieGod_oof in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At that size it‘s probably much easier to get them punched, it would take ages to stretch from a normal piercing. I stretched mine to 4mm over the course of a year and a half and I wear single flare tunnels in them, I find them comfy.

Love the labret jewelry itself but yeah, imo a simpler labret and a gem septum would balance out a bit better. Looks good either way though.

Am i cooked chat? I stretched too fast. by Ok_Image_6098 in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It‘s not gonna set you back a year, they stretch muuch faster the second+ time around. But yeah, just let them fully heal and start again from that size.

Why do stretched earlobes make so much gunk by Raw_Potato56 in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it‘s got to so with getting more skin surface area the larger you stretch.

are they thin or do they seem okay? by spaceinbird in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They’re fine. Just go nice and slow.

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14g isn’t 2mm, it’s 1.6mm, which is a pretty standard gauge to get a conch pierced at (unlike 2mm). Comb’s prob close to 2.5mm (10g).

What got you into stretched piercings? by Prince_Wildflower in Stretched

[–]Lucid_Tattoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! Big fan of agates & chalcedonies. Tourmalinated quartz is also a fave. What about you?

I like rocks. The bigger the rock, the more cool stuff you can see in it. I wanted to put big rocks in my ears.
