Yeah I was wondering about how well I'd sleep with a BCR in it.

I'm wondering, whether it'd be worth going for PTFE, so I can cut it down and re-thread it... I don't like how long the standard 6mm labret studs look when in a conch...

Also, what gauge is your conch to start with? 1.2? or 1.6?

The O-ring idea, that's fab... Hmmm *scratches chin*

I think I shall pop into my local studio and ask for prices n stuff. What did you pay for yours (if you don't mind me asking!)?

Has anyone here got a conch piercing?

I'm seriously tempted. My ears are tiny, so a rook, daith or snug look to be quite impossible, so I was thinking of having a conch, with blackline BCR with a clear gem in the captive bead...

Whatdya lot think?

Edited to add; Looking good MaRshy

yea, 'Piercing Guns should Be Banned' is kinda our unofficial motto on here lol
I don't know much about parlours down that way but I'm sure someone on here'll guide you in the right direction.
Price wise around £10 single/£15 pair for barbells is about average from the places I've seen, most will do up to about 2mm for that price but if you only want 1.2mm you will have to say as 1.6mm is standard.
Hope that helps some

I was thinking the other day... has there ever been a movement to get piercing guns banned? flyering, political lobbying.. get them off the market for good.

The thing that didn't hurt. And the thing that did.

Opinions and what next please?

EDIT: How ******* massive do my eyes look? :O

Your ear looks really good!! Jealous of the rook, I want one, may be my next one after I give blood next.

I'm also thinking about getting my ears done again soon. I had my last ones done at claires too (I know it's not good now!). So I will probably going to a proper piercing place. I've got one of my ear piercings to 1.6mm and it's only a tiny stretch really so that should be fine for putting normal earrings in after anyway shouldn't it?
And will it be barbells? I don't want anything too huge! Also any idea on how long you have to leave them in for before you can change them - when I had them done at Claires it was 6 weeks?
And I'm guessing it will be sea salt solution for cleaning and not the dodgy cleaner Claires gives out? haha

I'm going to sound like a ignorant idiot here, but when is the best time do a sea salt soak? Is it best to do it before a shower to rinse off the salt? Or just rinse with a bit of water? Or not rinse it at all? My naval is playing up, so want to make sure i'm doing it properly. I think dancing is irritating it as i'm always stretching my belly. The pus even smelled last night, but was still clear/yellow-ish, and was fine after a salt soak. Just a bit sore and still pussing. Only been 7 weeks though.
