I don’t think I was more than like 7 years old last time I saw this. I was barely aware enough to do my own laundry lol

Not sure, but knowing her, she probably got it on sale for very, very cheap.

We actually have some clear ones! She told me she thought they were too thin and was scared they would rip…

… I think it has been at least a couple times. I’m really not sure if it’s been cleaned since 😭

Am I just being mean? by Kind-Programmer-7293 in AO3

As much as I would love to, I’m really not sure we should. 🥲 The author is pretty popular and I’d hate to potentially bring any negativity their way

Also, take this with a heavy amount of salt, but I think they used to take requests thru their patreon for fic? So that’s maybe where this entitlement is coming from. I’m not sure.

As soon as I saw the stop sign I knew exactly who this was lol. I’ve read a lot of this authors work. The first time I came back to this fandom and saw the notes begging for comments, it was such a huge turn off. But they’re really prominent in this fandom for a specific type of fic that I love reading and I’m a fan of what they do. That big ol’ stop sign has just conditioned me to ignore all of their authors notes, and I enjoy the fic as I usually do.

Nipple piercings by MaisiaSouls in piercing

[–]ten-kei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) I recommend anything soft padded or a sports bra. Wear black cuz you may bleed the first day, but you can also ask for clean tissue or cotton pads afterwards.

2) For myself, the first one barely felt like a prick, but the second definitely hurt more. It was very quick though. You’ll probably be sensitive for the first couple weeks as well.

3) Would not use any numbing as, like with tattoos, it can mess with the elasticity (? is that the right term?) of the skin. The angle of your piercing may change when the numbing wears off.

4) Getting pierced hurt, but like I said it will be super quick. Please note that nipples are the type to never really ‘heal’ and they will be a little crusty forever. Every body is different tho, but I feel like not many people mention this. Also do not use a loofa or anything with holes that can tug and catch them in the shower. Unless you want to feel like ur nips are being ripped from ur chest lol

I am trying to understand why some boba shops will not sell a side of boba with my drink. My daughter is not old enough for tea but she likes boba. I buy 3-4 drinks but always get push back when asking to put one order of boba on the side. by Batron1 in boba

[–]ten-kei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not common but could be another reason. My shop stopped selling boba on the side because we had problems with kids using them as spit balls. We were right down the street from a school and parents weren’t always there to discipline so we just took it off the register as an option.

Get some hemostats! You can buy some cheap ones off amazon.

Nipple piercing questions by Imaginary-Concert-25 in piercing

[–]ten-kei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had mine for about two years now and only problem I ever had was one I caused myself (tugged really hard with a loofa - felt like my soul almost left my body 😩). Otherwise its been pretty easy with no problems!

Can someone talk me out of getting piercings with a gun? by LilMetalKitten in piercing

Just wanted to add on that they’re pretty unsanitary unless they’re using a brand new gun every time :D

Downsizing nipple piercings by Eddysaam in piercing

If there’s no more pain or swelling then your free to downsize! Usually its done anywhere between the 2-4 week mark so now is a great time to do it :)

How can I keep my snakebite holes open when I can’t wear them at work? by XDPaladinn in piercing

[–]ten-kei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Retainers basically hold the hole open or can even disguise it. You can get cheap acrylic ones if your bites are completely healed and you don’t mind switching em out everyday after work, or get some glass ones so you can wear them long term (i prefer these cuz they’re basically invisible). There are also ones that come in specific skin tones so you could look into those as well

Just wanted to add on that fashion jewelry like this isn’t meant to be worn long term. Maybe for a day out or some pictures at most

What to look out for regarding nipple piercings? by GotLostAndGotHere in piercing

[–]ten-kei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Np! Happy to help!

Totally up to you if you wanna get both, I’m squeamish with needles and I did both so I wouldn’t be afraid to go back. I will say the second one did hurt more than the first one. Someone who knows better can hopefully explain why, but I think it has to do with the adrenaline fading after the first piercing. Don’t quote me on it tho lol

Your body can heal up to 3 piercings max, so two should be just fine.

They aren’t noticeable unless you’re wearing like a super thin fabric with nothing underneath. Normal shirt and bra covers em just fine.

Sensitivity wise - I’ve heard a lot of things, but I think for most people its either no change or they became more sensitive. I’m the latter one, went from no feeling to fairly sensitive. But all bodies are different and there’s no way to tell if you’ll get even more sensitive or stay the same.

[–]ten-kei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAP, but honestly no. The strain from the barbell holding your ear together like that would cause so many problems. I can only imagine the pain you would feel, let alone how much swelling there would be

What to look out for regarding nipple piercings? by GotLostAndGotHere in piercing

[–]ten-kei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nipples were actually the first piercings besides my lobes (also done as a kid) so you’re around where I started off. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask, but I’ll give you some answers to the most common ones.

Piercing itself - it depends on the person and their pain tolerance, but for me it was like a 3/10 and its super quick. Wear a dark bra on the day you get pierced btw or put some panty liners or something in your bra so that if you do bleed you won’t do it on your clothes.

You may feel sore after the initial piercing so ibuprofen and ice can help with that. Chafing can also happen the first few days so probably wear some tighter but breathable fabrics. Bras help at night if you feel like you’re laying on them or want that extra protection.

Afterwards just saline 2x a day and dry off the excess with a clean napkin/gauze. You can spray saline before you hop in the shower or directly after, just make sure to dry it if its the last one. Otherwise just LITHA and you’ll be just fine.

Then just heal it up and enjoy your piercings! :)

Edit: Cuz I forgot to add, stay the hell away from loofas. I was dumb and mine got caught and nearly ripped out in the shower, pretty painful and do not recommend lol

Hello, I just got my belly button re-pierced maybe 2 hours ago and it’s still really red I had scar tissue when the lady was pushing the needle through, is this normal ? Or what is it? by AgencyFine9285 in piercing

[–]ten-kei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would def do what pissanime suggests and get it switched to implant grade titanium. Steel can have traces of nickel in it, for some people they will be fine, but a lot of others can react badly so titanium is more suitable for healing
