me and my sis had thick ear lobes..

at first when i pierce, the woman was using this gun thing , put the stud then, it's in.. but after a few days, my sis say how come like around my ear like funny one, so i took out.. then only feel pain and found out the earring was like leaving a mark on the ear lobes coz too tight XD

Nah, i dun think i'll ever do any stretchin .. looks painfull + it wouldn't suit me at all 

Bro ninelives can u recommend any sites with really cool ancient dragons with japanese clouds tats??

Damn, Dragonfly at 1U quoted me RM 380 for the tattoo design I wanted. Only 2-2.5 inches and in black colour.

hey ninelives, when will the next gathering be? i've missed so many of them already. let plan one next weekend. 26th or 27th? I'll be back in Malaysia during that time. I'm really looking forward to meet all u piercing and tattoo enthusiast.

not familiar with gauges la, around here they go by diameter one, so i not too sure about gauges.
if i were to guess mine would either be a 00 or a 0 gauge. 16mm diameter, left lobe. planning to get the other one done soon though

Please don't misunderstand me. I'm NOT looking for a cheap tattoo... but come on- RM 300+ is considered very expensive for me, even though my parents are the ones paying. My mother has her tattoos done for, at maximum, RM 250 the most at Sg Wang. Her tattoos are still fine and nice, I think her first tattoo is about 5 years now, and they're mostly intricate Sanskrit characters (Done in black ink though)- more complex than mine, and some are custom designs. And guess who is the person advising her throughout about tattooing and stuff? Me.

I've also been asking around about the reputation of the tattoo artists in Dragonfly, but thus far no one has directly given me a satisfactory answer. Same with recommendations for tattoo parlours/artists. I live in PJ, and travelling down to Sg Wang is too cumbersome for me at the moment with University and all.

hey ninelives do you know how much they charge to pierce my left earlobe at Borneo Ink?.....

wow RM120
i can buy a weeks worth of lunch with tht! 

ninelives...the portfolio u meant, isit for piercings or tattz?
cuz the last time i went there, they showed me a bunch of pics but thru their pc la. perhaps they didnt compile it properly...

Hmm, I saw president have one.

gatherin?
sigh...finals only endin on 23...n then straight bak to hometown ipoh...
wat do u all usually do there?

What about those peeps in facebook? Not keen for a gathering?

ninelives u got a lip piercing?....how painful was it?

Piercing = pain couple of days.
Tattoo = lagi pain few days.
