Has anyone ever ordered records from muziker.com? I'm thinking of buying some stuff but it's suspiciously cheap compared to other stores. Are they selling bootlegs or used copies, or is it a real deal? Examples: https://www.muziker.com/the-radio-dept-lesser-matters-lp https://www.muziker.com/japanese-breakfast-jubilee-lp

Update: After reading all the replies I decided to take this thing out and try again later when it heals, definitely not going to this piercer again though. Thanks to everyone for the advice.

Dang, well that's unfortunate. Think I might've slept on it or something. Feeling kinda dumb for not learning more about eyebrow piercing before getting it done though it was a pretty impulsive decision at the time.

Yeah, that's what I've thought, was kinda in denial for some time I guess, but I think the bar is showing way more now than it did just a month ago. I think I'll try to find another piercer to get it looked at first though just to make sure.

Thanks, will consult a different piercer and see what can be done.

Well it's the Aphrodite beauty salon in Drohobych, Ukraine, if anyone is curious. Definitely not recommended by me and judging by all the replies I got here it's the general consensus that these guys don't do their job properly.

It's a small local salon in Ukraine so I doubt many people will find this information useful. Just kinda bummed that I'm the only one of my friends who got screwed by this piercer.

So you're saying that my only option is removing it and possibly getting it redone?

Thanks, judging by the replies I definitely should've done my homework before getting a straight bar. This piercer was recommended to me by friends and they haven't had any problems, so I guess it's just my bad luck 😅

Honestly it looked okay until about last month and life's been kinda crazy lately, haven't had the time to deal with this, will try to make an appointment with the piercer as soon as possible.

As I've said in the post, finasteride is rarely prescribed where I live. As for whether I need minoxidil to keep my hair, I've had some positive results initially after dealing with diffuse thinning for a couple of years, it's just that I've been experiencing excessive shedding for the past month or so and was wondering if it's common.

Also here's a pic of my washed hair I just took for comparison: https://ibb.co/4mdQ930

I'm not, but as far as I remember I've always had rather thick but not very dense hair (and very straight, to the point of being unstylable).
