Its the sort of thing I'd recommend against until you've 'made it', same with neck tattoos.

That's why I wouldn't go big, I would stick with the size in the picture. That is a downside though but they look so cool, I can't resist.

I went through a phase where I really wanted to get gauges so I ended up getting fake ones that looked like plugs but weren't

If you like the look of them then I'd reccommend going for fakes rather than ending up with saggy earlobes. Because now in my twenties I am well and truly over all of my younger-aged fashion phases and I assure you, you will get over them as well.

Not everyone does though

Eitherway, a friend of mine has quite some piercings.
Tongue, arm (yes, right above the wrist, strangets thing), couple of holes in her ears. She's now busy piercing her ears to put thos tubes in them. Her right upper arm is tattooed from top to bottom (based on the artwork from Alex Gray, you should like that Lateralus) And I should say I'm just fine with it. She's still a beauty.
Doesn't change the fact that I just don't think it really matters. I'm fine with it, but she'd be fine without them too. I won't be having any. I already have a beard

id say those in the pic were about 8-10mm which wont go right back to size, theyll look about the size of a 3mm. Id say go no further than 6mm because you dunno how stretchy your ears are and do it properly or you'll regret it!

. I could give you a link to a guide if you please. I also have neck microdermals. Theyre awesome. Pics when I can be arsed.

You have the back of your neck pierced? I dont even understand how..?

FETCHER. · 04-25-2011, 06:15 PM

its like an L shaped plate with the bottom of the L under my skin and the top of the L has a gem on it. The bottom part also has little holes in it so the tissue will grow through it

two of these

How do you get that done?

That is insane! Can't believe it doesn't get infected or anything!

They needle a hole in the surface of your skin, then put the footplate in. It just feels like loads of pressure. I couldn't really see what was going on as it's on my neck. But thats the jist. and no kate, but theyre not permanent im not expecting them to last any longer than about 6 months.

they reject easily.
