Ok so i want to get both my ear's pierced and then tunnled if you know what i mean.

I don't have them pierced at the moment and i was wondering how long after 1st getting them done would i have to wait till i can get my 1st tunnel put in?

I want somthing like this in both ears..

Thats a 6mm tunnel...but i'm not sure i want to go that big maybe only 4mm?

Let me know on like after care and so on. I have been reading up on it alot like leave it about 1-2months beofre each strech and like how it is easier in the shower/bath and so on.

Some pictures of yours would be kool also just to get some more ideas on what i want hehe.

Ta, Nick.

BIT TO ADD ON!

Thinking about getting my lip done aswell...under the bottom lip to the left..Anybody had this done? Whats the pain factor on the bad boy? and also what do they look like on a person in reality..i mean i seen a few people but not actually spoke about it...im thinking about either a ring or just a stud not reall sure...Opinions? :) Taaa

My mate had two massive plugs in his ears they must have been at least 15-20 mm, one got ripped out at a party and tore his ear (which was f**king minging :sick: )

I don't see why you cant put bigger and bigger plugs in as soon as the original piercings healed.

IMO plug's are the only ear piercings that don't look completely gash on men though :P .

Yeah i don't want huge things because i find them ugly..But the smaller one's look damm good IMO.

About the time having to wait when i 1st get them pierced to putting the plug/tunnel in i duno what to call them but yeh lol..Not sure what you mean? Like wait 6weeks and then all should be good or like it would be fine to wait a couple days or a week or two then it be ok?

Bit confused on that side of things hehe.

Also how hard/easy are they to put in? And how do they lock in? As there is no pin on the back or nothing and im just wondering... :)

Cheers.

Just wait around 3weeks maybe after you get your ear pierced before you start to stretch. It took me a couple week to get mine to 8mm.

I had some lil black things to stick in that went upto 5mm, then got an 8mm spike an stretched the bitch. (Y) Keep taking it out an washing ur ear an stuff to get all the gunk out!

The longer you leave it between stretches, and the smaller stretches you do, the less painful it will be and the less chance of something f**king up. I've blown out my ear before, its not nice.

I'd say leave it at least 6 weeks after piercing, I left it 2, and the first stretch hurt like a bitch, but I did go straight to 4.

Another option would be to get it pierced at a higher guage and stretched to 3mm or so immediately after piercing, all decent piercers would do that for you.

Don't go to a cheap jewellery store with a piercing gun, spend the extra tenner or so.

On 20mm now, and 5mm on the other one, was 6 but I lost my tunnel. ^_^

Easy as hell, as I said on msn.

Yeah, but I often wonder at the point of tongue piercings, can't really see them unless people are playing with them between their teeth and that'd just annoy me, my lip piercing annoys me because I still play with it, but looks good so meh, but each to their own.

I'm the same, I want to get fleshies but dont have my ears pierced, so if I do I'll got straight to 3mm, I think they pierce like a half moon shape and it opens out, but Dan would know better than me!

might aswell have a good think before getting your ears stressed as when there bigger then 10mm id sya they will not close up and there there for a long long time(life;) )

ive had my ear streched at 10mm for about 5years like it now as much as then :)

All they would do on the 3mm one is simply use a bigger needle, about 2.4mm or so, then chase it through with a taper and the plug/tunnel/bar.

So if i went somewhere and got it done with a normal needle, would i have to get a gay normal earing for the weeks you have to wait?

Always considered getting a tunnel, one so it covers the whole earlobe. This 3mm business sounds like it would do the job, how much would it hurt going straight from that to a 4mil?

Anything under about 12mm will heal up depending on how stretchy your lobes are

I waited 3 days to stretch the first time I did it, got to 6mm in about a month, purely cause I didn't have the money to do it at once.

The best time to do it is in the shower, you get all warm and stretchy and then it really never hurts!

I'm going to 6 again atm, I'm only on 2, lost all my shiznay, but yeah it wont hurt and it will heal, just dont go too hard and fast, let your ears heal cause once you rip them they either wont heal properly or wont be able to stretch easily.

My mate Harri is currently on 22mm, they smell like athletes foot SOOOO BAD!

So yeah, you'll have to live with that!

I had My Ears Scalped to 10mm

Then when that had healed I streched it up, and am currently on 14mm.

I cant go much more as I didnt have ear lobes to start with, so I dont have much there to strech.

I paid £60 to have both ears Scalped to 10mm, that included jewelry. The after care is very important, otherwise you may reject it.

exactly, a little birdy told me its the best pleasure you can get from head with a piercing! :P

The little birdy lied. It's not that bad or anything but it's certainly not better, Id rather have it without to be honest, having a piece of hard plastic or metal dragged up my shaft is not a nice feeling really!

As for healing fleshies over about 12mm, you get a razor and run it round the inside of the hole, not sure the logic behind it but I'd guess it creates a fresh wound so it stimulates the skin to tighten up and then heal! You don't have to actually cut yourself, just scrape the skin!

I waited 2 weeks after having it peirced and put a 3 mm in. I ground down a spoke (out an old wheel) into a spike, put a spot of vaseline on the end and steched the living shit out of my ear. I then got bored of it after 2 weeks and took it out and put a stud in, it went back down too normal size.

The whole procidue of scalping isnt as bad as it soinds.

All they do is measure, clamp your ear then cut a slit into to the ear with a scalpel. (no anistetic or anything like that either, just done as is)

The pain isnt too bad, just imagine gettting a really deep scratch from a rose bush, thats what it felt like. The 2nd ear was a little stranger, as he stoped then started again, and you could feel the scapel going through the flesh.

After that they stick in a nice cold streching pin (which feels soo nice after the burning feeling of the cut) they stick the wanted jewelry in.

Had to clean it with hot salt water and saleen salution twice a day for the 1st 2 weeks, then just hot salt water for the next 2. Then when it had healed enough to take it out, give it a good claen.

I left mine for about 2 months before streching up.

Im allready tempted to go up to 16mm, just need to find some nice plugs :D

So how much do the plugs cost then? I mean i haven't really had time to look about to be honest...but i think i shall go to town tomorrow and ask about at the local places and the tattoo parlors about it. See what they have to say on the whole thing.

The scalping thing seems a little extream to me to be honest? A Little costly too just to get to the size quicker anyway...More painful too..

Gr. Choices are so annoying...
