I had been wearing clip-ons and cuffs, but they get uncomfortable after a while. There’s so much more variety now, too. I can hardly pick what to try. 🤩
Oh yeah, one of my hang–ups about piercing is the dread of being overwhelmed by choice. I'm bad enough with clothes. I'm not ready for a new type of decision paralysis yet.
i just bought everything over the first year of having pierced ears. i recently added two piercings (+one helix), to make efficient use of all that metal. :)))
i wanted this so hard. for over 20 years. i will add a nosering in summer. ;)
Niiice! Gotta make up for all those years of restraint somehow, right? Hope to see you post here some time. 😉
i am a bit shy when it comes to face-pics on the web. it's a shame yesterdays makeup was so great i even sent my slightly transphobic parents a pic! (out of spite.) anyway hears my ere:
;)
Oh wow, we're so different in that regard. I'd post my face just about anywhere, but I'd never dare send my parents a selfie! 'Tis a lovely ear. 💙
toxicity isn't a one way street. this whole trans thing makes them quite uncomfortable, so i send them the bestest pics, which they then ignore. i won't stop untill they either say the stuff they are yet 'too polite' to voice, or politely acknolegde my existence. 🥲
Hell yeah 😎👍
Well, that's a trip. You look like you could be the sister of a girl I dated briefly in high school.
Damn near a twin sister.
Alas, I looked very different in high school. 😂
Good stance at least!
Those are your cheeks, not your ears.
You go girl!
Nice! You would also look great with a septum. The light in this picture kind of makes it look like you already have one.
Slaying, love the piercing!
Ive been considering it lately. I use mostly cuffs and a few clip-ons now, but my ears are really sensitive. Hoping piercing helps. Just so expensive at most reputable places these days and I want to get both lobes and conch since I wear a lot of conch cuffs now.
Best of luck! I might try a daith piercing someday.
