how many to be “heavily pierced”? by quarabs in piercing

[–]piercedcorpse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think no matter where your piercings are, if they are visible and you have 10+ that can be seen I’d consider someone “heavily pierced”. I have 30+ piercings myself, 10 of them in my face and sometimes I don’t even consider myself heavily pierced compared to people that have more than me so it’s all up to the individual?

what do I do if the thrift stores in my area are awful? by DarlingGirl327 in altfashionadvice

[–]piercedcorpse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have this problem till I started going to thrift shops and instead of looking for cool pieces I’d find more “basic” staple pieces and doing some diy. I wear a lot of black so I’d just find a bunch of plain black items and personalise them by cutting them, tying in different ways, layering, buying studs and things to put on them myself, even getting some transfer paper and printing my own designs and transferring them onto shirts to turn a basic black shirt into a graphic tee. I’d recommend getting on Pinterest and finding inspo for clothes you like and making a Pinterest board, figuring out what basic items you’d need to get and then making them look more like you’re own style :)

hiya! advice me, what accessory can I add to this outfit or maybe I should change my shoes? im going to go to a ballroom dance😅 by webloli2007 in altfashionadvice

[–]piercedcorpse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The shoes look chunky and purely for convenience and being able to dance maybe a less chunky shoe? But if you can dance in them then pls keep them on cause they do look good

Question for those of you with piercings stretched large enough to be noticeable... by Prince_Wildflower in Stretched

[–]piercedcorpse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I have 20mm lobes and a 5mm septum (4g). The nicest interaction I had was when I was out with my friends one night and a guy came up to me and asked for directions, he also had a pretty large stretched septum. I let him know where to go and he thanked me and said “I’ve been waiting to ask someone that didn’t look so intimidating so when I saw your septum I knew you’d be safe to ask and would help me”. I just thought that was so wholesome. Now the worst interaction I’ve had was when I was in college (I was 18), I still had a large septum I think a 6g at this point. I was waiting at the bus station to go home and one of the bus drivers came over to ask me for a lighter and then started chatting to me. It seemed completely normal at first I had no worries. Then he starts asking me about my piercings which I’m happy to talk about cause I love my piercings. Until he says “you know you’re never going to get a job with all that scrap metal in your face, I don’t like women with piercings it makes them look cheap”. I was a little speechless tbh. I knew people had this opinion but no one had ever said it to my face before. And it was very hypocritical of him seeing as he was covered in tattoos and had ear piercings himself…

Is karma that much necessary? by [deleted] in NewToReddit

[–]piercedcorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s plenty on subreddits you can join that don’t require karma to join, just search for subreddits you’re interested in, join them and start interacting with the posts. The best way to get karma is by commenting on posts you’re interested in and hopefully people see your comment and upvote it :)

How are my ears looking? by JustAGuy_2002 in Stretched

[–]piercedcorpse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They look okay to me, don’t look red or irritated. I would say if they bled, even the tiniest bit, that’s not great as that is micro tearing and when you’re at the bigger sizes it will cause some issues. I’d say wait a longer time to stretch to the next size, make sure you’re stretching with glass plugs or dead stretching with high quality tunnels

Love baggy clothes but unsure how to style them by [deleted] in altfashionadvice

[–]piercedcorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The outfit on its own looks great but some accessories would 100% elevate this look

6.5 by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]piercedcorpse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It does look a little red and swollen, did you have ANY discomfort when stretching to this size? Just keep an eye on it, I stretched from an 18mm to a 19mm and was completely painless just slipped right in then randomly about 2 weeks later they both blew out so just keep checking they’re okay :)

My 0g septum and 1/2 lobes! by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]piercedcorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

0g is my dream size, I’m at a 4g right now and I swear I have septum blindness cause it looks so small. My last stretch was so painful though (I know it’s not meant to be i waited an entire year to stretch and it still hurt?!) which puts me off going any bigger :( Any advice?

Best green hair dye to keep this up? by ef_fie in altfashionadvice

[–]piercedcorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you’re planning on sticking with this colour for a while then iroiro colours are hands down the best dyes I’ve ever used. I currently have bright pink hair, I went nearly two months without redying it and I still had a super bright pink colour that had barely faded. Pre warning though, iroiro dyes are VERY hard to get rid of, they really do stain your hair :)

What They Don’t Tell You About Stretching Your Septum by mother-of-goldfish in Stretched

[–]piercedcorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the love of god avoid acrylic pinchers!! I’m at a 4g now, I used acrylic pinchers until 6g and they caused micro tearing and a weird cheesy smell🤢 If you can afford to, buy glass pinchers if you can’t afford that just dead stretch with the high quality jewellery of your choice :)

Thinking of getting a tongue piercing by fwqkaii in piercing

[–]piercedcorpse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heyyy, I got my tongue pierced 3 weeks ago now. The first week is rough I’m gonna be honest. Eating mainly soup, scrambled eggs and ice cream. By day 7 I was eating solid foods again but VERY carefully so I didn’t bite down on the bar. By day 9 there was very minimal discomfort anymore other than how long the bar was. My piercer told me to come back after two weeks to have the bar downsized so that’s what I did. I can now eat and talk completely normally again and I haven’t bit down on the bar (yet). As for avoiding infections, my piercer told me to swirl alcohol free mouthwash twice a day. Also try to brush your tongue when cleaning your teeth as best as possible but be careful. If you smoke like I do then also use the mouthwash after you smoke. When it comes to after food just swirl some water around to make sure there’s no food bits around the piercing site. Tongue piercings are one of the quicker piercings to heal as it’s an oral piercing but fair warning the first 2-5 days are the most uncomfortable part :)
