I'm on what is considered a 'personals' website for my city, and I got on it for friends and I occasionally date people off of it.(www.louisvillemojo.com, btw)It's not bad. People can message you through it and stuff...so today, a guy in his 30's messaged me and asked about my septum ring. Mostly, h...

I want to get my microdermal anchors removed but I don't know where to go. I was originally planning on getting them removed when I was in California for winter break, but I ran out of time and couldn't make it to the piercer I usually go to and trust. I was considering waiting until summer, but I'm...

I have the standard labret. Have had it for a few years now, but I'm thinking of a vertical labret now. Does anyone have both or know of any pictures of both of them? I'm pretty sure that it'd look shitty with the one dirrectly over the other, but what are your opinions? And do you think it wou...

Hello bodymods , I have two questions. I'm considering getting my right conch punched (it was pierced, the piercing is gone but it still has some scarring, and I'd like to get the scar tissue punched out). 1. How likely is it to develop scar tissue again? I want it to be kind of small, maybe around ...

I've had an industrial piercing for about 4 months now, and recently (within the past month or two) I've noticed two small bumps on the inside of each piercing that bleed and pus a little bit. I think it's hypertrophic scarring, but I'm not entirely sure...I'm afraid it could be infected, too. My ea...

From what I could find, most of the postings about lip swelling and such have been on fresher piercings, so sorry if this has been answered/asked ad nauseum in the past. I got a lip stud last December (2007) and have had the bump pretty much since then in varying degrees. It will go down and behave ...

Hi everyone. I recently got my tongue pierced (this will be piercing #15 for me). I have a few questions since I've never had an oral piercing like this (I have my lip but that was a breeze). I looked at the tags and FAQ but didn't find anything. The piercing went well and whatnot. I drooled like a ...

Hello all. I got my first real piercing ("real" as in, "not crushed all to hell by the gun at Claire's") just a few days ago. December 30th, at around five in the afternoon, to be exact. They gave me my aftercare instructions, but I wanted to be thorough, so I went to the old Google to find out what...

So, piercing virgin here, or close to it - I have double lobes, two standard upper-ear piercings, and that's it. But I've wanted a facial piercing for a while - specifically, eyebrow - and finally have gathered up the balls to do it. I have a pretty sensitive body; out of the four times I've gotten ...
