- Why?

bottom lip...my favourite piercing....hehe

bottom side lip that is....not lip labret


doesn't matter how long u wear lip piercing....once u take it off, it closes faster than the sun sets down
or 2 sun sets.....
3 days the max?




so....onli pierce lips if you know that ur line of work permits? i don't know....i feel very wasted if take off lip piercing.....cos' that bugger will take at least 3 months to get fully healed

sooo tempting to get so many other facial piercings...budden ah...mom will freak and work will freak too XD

Okay..here's my pic...those were barbell piercings( i think, there the type with cones at the end).. but i lost 2 ends while playin football, and one lost swimming, and the last one i dunno where the hell it went..bought from cineliesure, didn't know the ends were loose

how old are your piercings? is it that your ear lobe is thick like mine?

cos' they don't look too soft in texture o'er there

piercins are 1 year + old.. pierced in 2006 2 months b4 SPM

me and my sis had thick ear lobes... or so the jewelry shop person said... some of the ear-rings they were sellin doesn't haf a stick long enough

yea, i had so much trouble shopping for jewellery cos' of my thick ear lobe as well
i couldn't wear those nice ear rings that they have.....
those that look thick on its circumference, but is actually not thick on the real needle gauge

so ended up i have to wear those rings which thickness is the same across its whole circumference
those are real thick jewelleries...well not that thick now ..since i've switched to tunnels

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

yea....people with thick ear lobes....problematic when shopping for jewellery

though it goes thinner as you stretch them out.....
so thick ear lobes are perfect for stretching / gauging

heheh

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

yea, they do are realli painful...but it's onli for 3 days i think
the 1st day is the most terrible sensation
where u dun feel ur ears any more....
for the 1st hour at least.....

lol

when you go pass 10mm or so you wouldn't even feel it stretch. thats if you let it heal for a month or so before stretching again.
fastest way to heal a stretched ear is to do vitamin E oil rubs.

wat gauge you're on now, for both your ear lobes?

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

not any particular ones i know of.....
those sites i check, they have a mixture of everything when it comes to tattoos

u could check out bmeink.com
though the site has no longer been maintained no longer since sept last year
they have a huge archive, enough for you to browse for the entire year, spending few hours a day

cos' there's realli a lot of photos there.....get ready to camp at your monitor screen

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.

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

mmm........very much depending on the complexity of your design

for example,
i mean you can't expect a potrait tattoo to be cheaper or at same pricing as a say, tribal tattoo of the same size

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

i lost my site for the japanese design already ler, if you wan i can hook you up with some of the pictures i gotten online.
you can basically check for jap tattoo designs on japanese tattoo sites though, for example catclaw tattoo, and a few others, cant remember now.

onli left lobe gauged? ur right lobe not been pierced and gauged?

16mm....i guess u shouldnt' go any larger, it's just nice

mine's 8mm on one side...the other's 6mm - was waitin' for a year, for the other to get pierced and gauged and heal b4 i stretch them both at the same time

where are you? u sound like u're in UK?

anyways, i saw a guy with a 16mm lobe somewat.....3 weeks ago i think, at zouk.....he was well....not the kind of look that i was looking for...i mean it's quite odd, cos' he only have his left lobe stretched to like 20mm i think, but where his right lobe's a virgin lobe
