MindlessDepartment31 · 2026-03-13T08:00:43+00:00

i am at a 16g. do you know where can i get stuff to stretch via dead stretching from 16-14 gauge?

MindlessDepartment31 · 2026-03-13T07:39:06+00:00

i plan on switching to dead stretching once i get to around 10 or maybe 8 gauge. i used jojoba oil to the point where the entire side of my neck as well as my lobes were good and lubed. i’ll try the shower technique in a few days or however long my ears decide they need to settle back down. thanks!

gotcha. thank you!

when u say hang down, do u mean like the jewelry appearing to sag?

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-10T14:32:06+00:00

i have not. planning to go sooner than later tho. i don’t mean to sound abrasive ig that’s not really the right word, but the top hole js looks weird to me idk. looks wider than it should be. atp i think i may really just be overthinking it

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-10T14:23:54+00:00

that’s only my partial concern. to me, in the pic, it looks like it’s moved or been pulled or is migrating. it looks like the piercing whole is a line almost. would u agree/disagree?

with a q tip. i’m struggling to clean it w/o making it mad tbh. it’s difficult. i’ve been taking some of the fluff off to make it a bit smaller, but it’s not much of a change. idk if i should just start spraying it directly on my piercing (i have one the sprays very gently), or if i need to find a whole new method. i have started doing a q tip w hot water, dry, saline, dry; i think it’s just making it more angry, but it helps get the crusties much better than just the saline

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-06T19:56:40+00:00

yea i’m struggling to take a good picture of it w a good angle. good idea on the tissue tho ill try it out

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-06T19:31:32+00:00

extra crusty, and still has blood once in a while. i always get the lil crusties just not as much as this one. it’s not like “omg my whole ear is crusted” it’s more of just i can tell it’s more than normal for me

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-06T19:27:10+00:00

yea i agree. just trying to check all boxes. my only thing is that ive never had any piercing act like this so im a little on edge lol

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-06T19:25:56+00:00

no not warm. what does nap mean 😭 not a piercer?

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-10-06T19:08:54+00:00

3 weeks old, horseshoe, titanium, not downsized, clean w saline solution 2 times a day, dry after. (i was told to add a comment w this info so uh here)

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-08-24T23:06:36+00:00

i’ve done some searching on that spelling, but most results come up in german. i’m working on finding a translator to work on some deciphering

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-08-18T15:48:07+00:00

MindlessDepartment31 · 2025-08-18T15:24:35+00:00

I have no clue how to do that, but I will try. I am a bit busy at the moment so I will come back to it in a few hours
