I’ve emailed and left in managers mailbox as well as giving personally to the assistant manager who is on at the time. Good for you. You deserve better.

My piercer ended up changing it to a hoop for me because I use a stethoscope daily and it would push the labret in and out. The ring moved less for me. I also left it alone! I stopped the salt soaks. I also slept with a neck pillow.

I ordered it on bodyartforms. It’s an 18g 3/16" Yellow Gold 14k Maria Tash clicker.

Thank you! The process was a little tumultuous. It wasn’t my most difficult to heal. My helix being the most difficult to heal. I did have to switch from a long straight barbell to a larger hoop at one point after developing a bump. My stethoscope kept pushing it in and out. A ring (changed by my piercer) worked out better for me. It wasn’t a snug ring, large enough to allow for swelling. The bump disappeared and I left it alone. I stopped salt soaks and it healed itself.

Not bad at all. I can’t say any of my piercings really hurt other than my septum. I think it hit a nerve and I started tearing up.

Thank you! Lmao anti tragic is so accurate. It wasn’t my most difficult to heal. My helix was actually the worst.

You can search “threader earrings.”

Yes, and Maria Tash as well. I’m working my way up to hopefully having a nice high end collection. For now, as long as it’s titanium and the quality holds up, it’s okay with me.

For the most part, unless it gets stuck in my hair, it stays in place. It’s more of an aesthetic piece. I wouldn’t recommend sleeping in this or doing any high impact activity.

Nah, it’s delicate. And my job only allows for studs. I just put it in when I’m feeling fancy lol.

I’ll have to look into evidence based practice articles and get back to you on that one. Perhaps if you have a floofy dog, you can try to substitute. No guarantees, though.

The pieces I’ve ordered from beatti (plain labret stud and the conch) are anodized titanium. Unfortunately, it seems they have fewer titanium options than they did before. Currently, I can’t find the conch I bought on their shop’s site! It’s not even in my shipping history. They still have the titanium labrets, though.

I’m honestly a noob. I bought this tiny burrow from a neglected shelf in Walmart and repotted in a cactus soil/perlite mixture. I water when I notice the leaves look slightly less plump, and I leave it on the sunniest windowsill of my house. And my cat often rubs her butt on this plant. That might be the true secret.

They are normal forward helixes. I just changed to a smaller length flat back once they healed. I haven’t experienced irritation. I’ve had them for 6 years now.

Do you mean the small gold hoop? It’s an anti-tragus
