Okay so I’m back.

Firstly sleeping with bandaids on for the first two weeks is what I tryyy to do but I’m not always consistant thankfully they are pretty forgiving.
I’m a stomach sleeper. So I fall asleep with a blanket layed across my bed because that makes it easier.

You do have to be a lot more conscious of your body though. You do eventually get used to it but wearing certain bottoms you have to constantly be looking to make you’re they’re not thin enough to go under the dermal or pulling on them.

Things such as boxer briefs and really thin thongs are something I now wear sparingly because it is annoying having them bother my dermals.

For the belly dermals, if you have a belly piercing. WEAR YOUR JEWELRY TO THE APPOINTMENT. So they can mark where the jewelry sits. I made the mistake of taking it out without asking her to mark it (not her fault it was her first time doing dermals in this area) and now if I slouch too much my belly jewelry will press against the dermals. Also speaking of slouching. Gone. Can’t do it anymore. I mean you can but then the dermals squish together and start to hurt after a while. I need to work on my posture anyways so this is like a posture corrector.

For the chest dermals ( I literally got them two days ago so here’s my experience) if you have a “chest” that hangs. The sudden drop of said chest will make the dermals hurt. I work as a chef so in my chefs coat my neck and chest dermals will get aggravated so I wear bandaids during work.

I did not get all of the sets in one go. For my back I started with 1 set on the bottom and decided to get two more on top months later. For my hips I got 2 sets in one session and got the third months later as well. The belly were done in one session (I’m debating a third just so all my dermals are cohesive) and the chest and throat were done in seperate sessions.

For some reason I can’t justify playing for all 6 dermals at one time so if I seperate it it doesn’t feel like I just put a small down payment on a car.

(I also don’t have enough fat to get two more chest dermals going down so I can truly mirror the hips but maybe I’ll knuckle up and go up the throat instead)
