Update / Piercings posted : 03/25/09 at 05:00am pst

Hey everyone,

 

So yea, I haven't been around since I posted the journal after the event at backbooth. My work is keeping me really busy, plus I've moved, etc. I bought a condo in Oviedo, currently working on getting it completed and furnished. Besides working, moving, and going downtown, I haven't been doing much else. But on to the piercings.

 

I've started repiercing my face, just curious about what you all think. I've gotten my labret, tongue, ears and eyebrows pierced. In a week I'll be stretching my ears to an 8. I'm planning on taking my ears to a 00 and then seeing if I want to go any bigger. I'll probably end up doing a 1/2". My eyebrows, I'm going to get some barbells for them soon.

So Opinions?

Oh yea, I got an idea for a new tattoo. Once I'm done stretching and completely sure I won't be getting any new facial piercings. I'm going to get a frankenstein tattoo on my arm, but he'll have the same piercings I do.

 

Thanks for reading.

Sincerely,

Dk Maynard

Thanks! I'm excited to get it done. I'll probably get it sometime mid next month.

Btw, I love your barbells. I have black barbells in my nipples aswell.

I'm glad you're opting for straight barbells in your eyebrows because I think they would suit your face much better. Good luck with the ear stretching! My ears are currently naked and I hate it. I've wanted to repierce/stretch them for years, but I have such a difficult time finding appropriate jewelry that doesn't make them scream. Sigh. But my septum loves being stretched, so I can handle the compromise.

Yea same here. The only reason I didn't get barbells from the start was because I've had better experiences cleaning with bead rings.

 

Thanks, this will be the first time I've had my ears stretched. I've had my ears, along with pretty much everything else pierced before. I know for sure, I'll be going to 00.

 

You look great with you're septum pierced! What gauge is it?

I just stretched it to a 12g about a week ago and once it's fully healed, i'm going to make the jump to 10g. I don't really know how large I'll go at this point; I'll just stop whenever my body tells me it can't stretch anymore or when I feel comfortable at a certain size. My next piercing adventure will be my nipples, I think.

Have you ever experiemented with play piercing before?

Right on, my eyebrows are a 12, but thats what I started at. My nipples were the only piercings that I always kept. I don't know if you've had your nipples pierced before, but its nothing. The biggest thing that helped me was taping them down when they were healing. I don't know if its just me, but the tongue has to be one of the most annoying piercings when healing. I've basically had everything pierced once. My tongue has been pierced 3 times, and I still hate the healing process. Make me wish I didn't take it out in the first place.

 

I've never done any play piercings, just something that never appealed to me.

I've never had my nips pierced before, but I've always loved how the piercing looked on others. And my boobs are small, so I figure the healing process won't be too difficult since they don't move around a lot. Piercings are more addictive for me than tattoos, although I have a running list of ink I'd like to get eventually. I've had various piercings, not too many, but a few that I'd like to get redone, especially my lip. I once had a fellow piercer friend do a temporary 14g back corset on me. That was fun, especially when I put glow-in-the-dark thread through the rings.

Yea nipples are no big deal. Plus they heal faster on women, and a lot of people will tell you the pain level for women getting their nipples pierced versus guys. Isn't as bad. No offense but your boobs and nipples specifically are made to take more of a beat then a guys nipples. Again no offense. I know what you mean, for me piercings are like getting a new haircut. This last time around though I took everything out. I'm happy with my eyebrows, lobes, and labret for right now. I may re-do the snug on my ears, I don't know.

I'm not going to lie, corsets are hot. How long did you keep it in? I did a photoshoot awhile back with a girl who got a corset, she just had it several hours specifically for the shoot.

I was actually able to keep mine in for about three months before the jewelry had to come out. It was during the summer though, so I just wore mostly backless tops that tied around the neck. I wouldn't dare try a corset piercing in winter.

Wow three months, the longest time one of my friends ever had one in was like 2weeks. Also I bet that glow in the dark ribbon was badass. Do you have any pictures from when you had it?

 

Ok, well I'm off to work. Got on real quick to see if you responded. Look forward to hearing from you later on. Have a good day. ;)

Unfortunately, I don't have any photos. I've moved a lot since that time and they got lost in transition. But I'd love to experience that kind of piercing again someday, especially in regards to a photoshoot.

I hope your day at work didn't suck too badly. I'm about to head to the thrift store. I've recently rekindled my love for denim jeans, so I've been thrift-hopping to try and find a few decent pairs. Talk to you later!

Well if you're ever down this way, I'd love to do a photoshoot with you. ;)

 

Meh, it was alright. Only 4hours, but I didn't sleep lastnight. Thrift stores are awesome, you can find some good stuff. I found about ten pairs of $150 jeans, all my size about a month ago. Spent $5 a pair. Well I'm going to lay down and take a nap, good luck with your shopping!
