- Saw these on ebay and thought it would be interesting to look at.
It's basically a one-shot disposable earring inserter that pierces your ear with an earring stud and fits the back catch on one single violent click.
By far the best bit about these things is the videos on UA-cam showing people completely failing to use it correctly.
If you enjoy my videos you can supprt the channel and buy me coffee and cookies at / bigclive
That up close photo made the needle/stem of the earring look like they re-purposed a drill bit.

I’m a bit late (2 years), but it probably is.
Lolll
I've pierced my ears several times with these and, if done correctly, they're great..I've never had a problem
Do you know what material the earring is? I can't find anything that says whether or not they contain nickel
can I use the same one twice?
Alma lolo no, it breaks after one use
No, they are meant for single use.
The earring is steel..my ears have never had a reaction or turned green.
the tradesman earring has its origines in the early guild systems and the fakt that i used to be requierd for a tradesman to complete his journey... in case some thing unfortunate hapend and a journeyman died, his earring payd for a proper funeral and at the same time was not likely to be wasted for buze in the next in while still alive, also when someone misbehaved and thus was a pain in the neck of his fellow journeyman the would rip out his earring thismmaking him easy recognisable by anybody as being not thrust worthy, this also leads to the german word schlitzohr (litteraly slitted ear) for someone of dubios habits
+Zeugschmiede/Toolforge My granddad told me the same about the background - he had been a carpenter and when they completed their apprenticeship they basically got the earring and were sent on their way to find work and learn more along their way, giving their home town a wide berth until they had completed their journey. That old tradition is still alive in some trades and you'll see those tradesmen every now and then, in their traditional clothing with their traditional pack on their journey, usually looking for a lift to the next town.
+Zeugschmiede/Toolforge
Now I know the meaning behind Schlitzohr, it all makes sense all of a sudden. Thank you for this most informative comment.
wow...thats amazing history, thanks for that
Oh my goodness, what an unexpected memory! I worked for several years at Spencer's Gifts. One of my jobs was ear piercing. I used one of those guns with sealed cartridges containing the earring. It was amazing how many people had a few drinks first to get their courage up, it was hilarious really. The worst was a lady who got really snockered and still kept chickening out. She ended up with only one ear pierced. We couldn't stop laughing after she left.
So when you become an electrical tradesman you get a gold pirate-style earring?
So for you guys, Ohm's law is V = I times Arrrrr?
Oooo I like it. ARRR...
A long time ago, I heard that in the days of pirates, the Earring was worth the price to get you home. That way if your pockets were picked and all was lost, and you still had your head, you weren't penny less...
+Dosbomber hehe that made me chuckle more thanit should
+Dosbomber - Pirates don't have to respect _any_ law, including Ohm's.
Ohm my god, Watt a shocking joke.
Well this is my only current activity.
"Degenerates into lots of screaming and blood" "It's certainly worth looking for those videos they are quite funny"
Now this is reason number 2 why you are my favourite reverse engineer.
i found the tradesman's earring tradition thing the most interesting part of this, old traditions like that are fascinating
You're reminding me of a memory I've tried hard to remove from my brain. A friend decided to pierce his own ear in my bathroom using nothing more than the stud he bought and an ice cube for pain relief. Not only did it take him at least two minutes to push it through - it wasn't straight after all the effort.
Thank you! Just purchased this and now im ready to pierce my own ears!
Next up! Liver transplant kit!
The ear is a pretty tough thing to pierce, I was talked into doing my sons with a darning needle and it was hard going to push it through.
I enjoy watching your videos.
You would think they're cheap enough for people to buy 2 to test it out first like you did. But that takes logic.
The randomness of this channel is what I like best about it. I can only consume so many tech take-downs before I need an amuse-bouche of Fanny Flambeaux, ace music, or DIY champagne (much to the chagrin of Moët & Chandon et al.)
... and Ralfy, natch.
I don't know how I stumbled on your Channel as I know nothing about circuits or anything, but I'm glad I have, I've been enjoying myself greatly with these videos.
That works in a similar fashion to the tool my dad uses to put ear tags in his cattle. Of course, the tool is quite a bit bigger and has a plier type handle.
Clive, you never cease to amaze me with your eBay-finds :D
Love it. Some much more informative than the thousands of girls in panic. Thank you !!!
Oh, wow, the bit about the apprenticeship and the gold earing is very interesting!
Sir I am a new subscriber and becoming something of the fan.
I work QC for an industrial equipment re-seller and love watching these fails.
The soldering iron was fantastic as were all the heating element ones.
(I may have to build a stinger now thanks to you.)
+Michael Thompson Deep down you want to buy an electrode boiler from ebay though. Go on... It's just £2 ($3) all inclusive...
+bigclivedotcom Absolutely! Electrode boilers and other tat are fun to explore. Thanks for some really great content!
Of all the YT channels I'm subscribed to, yours is the one making YT come up with the weirdest video suggestions after watching one of your vids.. It's a small "price" to pay, though - I really enjoy your vids.
the trade earring is still being done by some of the more traditional trades. originally the ring was supposed to pay for your funeral if you died while moving from town to town. seamen also had them with their name on it for when their body washed up on the beach. getting kicked out of the trade would involve a strong pull on the ring
I ordered one myself. One click and done. No pain no beading. To remove the butterfly you have to remove the square cover which holds the butterfly in place and slide it off. Easy and looks great
The blunt jewellery crushes and tears through the tissue; a piercing needle cuts through tissue with less pain, less tissue trauma, greater safety and quicker healing. Plus the jewellery in this thing will be made of the cheapest most horrific metal.
And don't rotate it either. Awful video promoting this rubbish :/
+pwnski A bit blunt? Maybe.
But it's actually stainless steel, which is by the way horrific cheap.
And if you don't have a trustworthy piercist nearby, it would be the better choice.
The needle is sharp enough to do the job and probably better than some piercist needles.
I would always prefer a good piercist, but it's better than getting a good infection from the guy around the corner, with his ebay bought piercing kit.
The word is Piercer, not piercist.
These days, there is a reputable piercer in every town.
Stainless steel should NEVER be used in fresh piercings. 316L is acceptable in fully healed piercings (stable and settled fistula) but considering how affordable titanium jewellery is these days, it is still a false economy particularly if you have any sensitivities or allergies.
"The needle is sharp enough to do the job and probably better than some piercist needles. [sic]"
No, it is not.Firstly, this device does not use a needle; it uses the (blunt) jewellery itself to force through the tissue. Piercing needles are about as sharp as you can get, and the vast majority of piercers these days will use a triple bevel hollow needle blade or quality cannula. Even 'poor' piercing needles are like a razor compared to this thing.
Look at it this way - a butter knife is sharp enough to 'do the job' but surgeons still use scalpels.
A word about sterilisation:
If you do not know how to create, maintain and use a sterile field then popping this thing out onto the table before picking it up (as 99% of its users would do) renders any purported sterility completely pointless.
pwnski First piercist is as legit as piercer and in US piercist is more common afaik.
Second, SSS surgical stainless steel is cheaper than G23 Ti (the titanium you are referring to) and is disinfecting, you could go for 999 Nb, it's a bit cheaper than G23 Ti and still suits the job.
Third, you should look the item up again, it isn't "blunt", yes there are sharper needles out there, but they couldn't use a more sharp needle, since it would be to long to suit the usage. You only have a fixed length to work in.
Fourth, the item itself is clean. IF the user is mistreating it, it is the users fault, not the sellers / objects. The object itself is build in a ISO 8 clean room, you can't go more sterile than that.
Have a nice day
>These days, there is a reputable piercist (FTFY) in every town.
Not in mine.
I've used it and it works great! idk why everyone has so much problem getting the back off its probably cuz they are scared or the pain idk cuz u do have to pull a little
I'd be most worried about the metallurgy of a cheap Chinese stud -- friends who are piercers have a 'big book of you fucked up' where people used cheap jewelry 'properly' and have terrible reactions to "proper" but cheap metals. Not allergies, but just metal toxicity from really really shitty cheap materials.
+frollard obviously not allergies. You can only be allergic to proteins.
+Carbon 12 Now that's just being pedantic over a very narrow biological function definition. According to several sources if you bother to look an allergy is to a 'substance' not exclusively a 'protein'. I was referring to the fact that it was proper surgical stainless jewelry but it was such low grade stainless that it had plenty of stuff for a body to reject.
"Common allergens include pollen and food. Metals and other substances may also cause problems." -McConnell, Thomas H. (2007). The nature of disease : pathology for the health professions. Baltimore, Mar.: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. p. 159. ISBN 978-0-7817-5317-3.
Carbon 12 I'm actually allergic to certain types of metal, and as far as I know, metals don't have proteins so... it's not that obvious ;)
I like the idea of journeymen earnings, but it seems kinda suicidal for an electrician.
Not so much, really. You learn pretty early which parts of your body to keep away from potentially-live circuits.
Frying your hands, or even your heart (with sufficiently fast care) is survivable. Frying your brain - not so much.
I've switched from watching on my tablet to watching on my big screen tv.....Dude your hands are HUGE
+Wil Hobbs My hands are in fact huge.
+bigclivedotcom and yet such dexterity ☺
eBay is a great place for random things and i enjoy watching your videos about them
All those ear piercing pistols are crap, even the professional ones.
Yeah we all used them in the past. But its way better to get it done with a real piercing needle. The wound is cleaner and heals way faster.
Wupme agreed.
Yes totally agree.
I love the eclectic nature of your channel. Is there nothing you don't cover ? If yes then doctor I'm having trouble with my close coupled toilet. I read that modern low level toilets use much less water than the old high tank gravity thunder blasters. Without going into detail my present toilet fails to deal with some of the material I donate to it even when I give it the full flush treatment. I also read that some toilets are "pressure assisted". I wondered if you had had any personal experience of this problem and had found a solution ?
+meandmymouth Yes. What you need is a device called a "jobby-stick" to break up large turds into more manageable pieces. The pressure toilets are used in places like Las Vegas to conserve water. The cistern is empty except for a pressure vessel that is pressurised by the incoming water supply. When you flush it makes a loud bang and forces water horizontally to ram your turd round the bend. They're just completely frightening things.
+meandmymouth i would install a toilet with a high level cistern. i have one in my house, there are no issues with clearing the pan. the modern close coupled lavatories with a puny flush are just pathetic, they have them at my work, they are always blocking up...
+Sean Ache Thanks mate. Eating less is hardly an option so I'll try more ripe bananas which I understand helps ease the flow of solids 😁
+bigclivedotcom Thanks mate. I see jobby-sticks are something you get from pet shops. Also I hear noisy toilets are not helping the water shortage in Las Vegas because war has broken out between rival polygamous Mormon families fighting for the dwindling supplies. Humans are such amusing fauna 😅
+insanitybiker You're right modern low cistern close coupled toilets are ......well crap ! Most of the dealers around my way (Bristol) don't seem to stock high cistern toilets. I wondered if you had to shop on line for yours ?
How you've accomplished this without wearing fashionable black nitrile gloves is beyond me. I'm frankly surprised YouToob hasn't demonetized your whole channel and Susan Wojcicki, herself, come to the Isle of Man to throw you into the sea.
It works very well, except I couldn't get the back out at first. But very safe. No blood.
How did you get back out?
He shows in the video the correct way, by pulling it away from you. I was thinking the back came out through the top, though, that's why it wouldn't come out and I probably didn't clamp down hard enough.
Wow this is crazy I was just about to leave a comment on how thankful I was that you had a video step by step not even realizing 3 years ago I watched the same video once again it's still an awesome video thank you so much I'm about to get to piercing now 👍🏾🤗😁
"Now, I will not be putting this into my own ear"
Awwww, spoil sport!
I have used these. If it doesnt go through fully, they dont push hard enough and if you dont push it hard enough it just ends up being painful. I find the pain only lasts for as you push then its immediate relief. All my piercings have healed nicely from these.
Vodka + Needle + Frozen Potato = Someone?
Thats how i got mine when i was a Young Child
Horsesgamer thats how my grandma pierced her ears😂
Vodka and potato I didn't get it
Salma Baloshi pretty sure you take a shot of vodka, and use the potato behind the ear so it’s easier to push the needle through
Funny thing is I've been watching these for a bit but I don't know why as I have both my ears done, I suppose I just wanted to know how they work, But now I know, Thanks Clive.
"Certainly worth looking for those videos, they're quite funny."
top kek :D
I have 1 in my left ear since I was 15 until a few years ago at work a large spot of molten metal flew up and welded itself to the ring, it was a case hold your breath and wait for it to cool down, trouble is being gold it transfers heat very well and proceeded to cook my piercing hole from the inside out, eventually it did cool down but hurt like hell and eventually got infected, 2 weeks later I had to re pierce the hole which had healed over, not a nice feeling going through the new scar tissue back into the old location but Argh a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. Still have my old earring that my Mum gave to me as a 15 year old with nice little ball welded to the side of it stashed away.
interesting product. an interesting piece of engineering. thanks for posting the video. Appreciate your idea of showing a close-up pic of the product :)
+Kiran Kankipati It is actually nicely engineered.
would seriously enjoy buying you a pint or two. i reckon you have a wicked sense of humor
the best is when people try using these things on cartilage. it just winds up pushing the cartilage out of the back and causing a large lump of scar tissue and cartilage. i did all my piercings the old fashion way with a needle and a cork
I had a nose stud "installed" some 23 years ago. I thought it would be as painless as having it done on an earlobe, remembering my sister had earrings done when she was a kid without incident. ....... It bloody well wasn't. I remember the shocking pain and being in some sort of stupor as I came to my senses. Everything healed eventually and I've had it ever since. I don't have an earring.
Back in the late 70's I used a similar system to pierce my ear, the difference was that the stud had a grove in it and a plastic tab in the piecer held the stud in place till you pressed with enough pressure for the tab to snap and the stud would then shoot through the ear.
My father had been a GP and he was sent a sample pack of disposable piercers that I helped myself to, at the same time most my friends that did their own piercing where using the needle and cork method.
Surprise surprise, when used properly some things actually work for their intended purpose. I never woulda guessed.
Clive is so cool he wears sunglasses when making videos.
+electronics Photochromic glass. The downside being that it makes me look even more of a villain in summer.
+bigclivedotcom those seem amazing
+bigclivedotcom Photochromic lenses are the bee's knees for people wearing perscription glasses. I got mine recently and I was amazed at the great utility they provide during everyday life.
+John Doe They are excellent. To others you may seem stupid wearing sunglasses in winter. The only issue is when you go indoors, it takes a while for the lenses to become transparent again making your surroundings a little darker for a while. They do save a lot of eye strain.
+bigclivedotcom a villain to lame ass china products
My mom and I had got our nose’s done with that one-shot piecer and it was completely okay. We didn’t get infections or any blood. We kept it clean and did it sanitary.
I had a silver earring ( ear pierced at age 7) and tore the hole by getting caught on a scaffold wedge. it festered a lot and now I have a 2,5 mm piercing in there, the type that closes with a ball. it was more a thing to have a silver or gold hammer or trowel on a chain, paid for on your first salary. I bought a 3/4 length army coat and a frame supported backpack :) still in service today. ( warm in my land rover)
I was at a party and we broke these out for some reason felt like the right thing at that time ! xD
this was a great tutorial I was hoping that you show us how to reinstall the earring. can we use a different type of earring? can we use a plasic spacer?
It's really just designed for single use with a specific earring.
I used one and it worked just fine for the earlobe. I probably wouldn't use it for cartilage as I did have to pound it through, but it was painless all things considered.
It does stuck indeed, just verified on both my ears. And it always will, because when you try to pull it off you twisting the stud and butterfly at an angle because diamond side fixed no more. Just use a small pin as a lever.
I've just recently pierced both my ears with that, first push didn't go all the way through cause i didn't push hard enough second one went more smooth. My advice: take rubbing alcohol(this is what i did)disinfect the whole thing and your ears. It works but it's risky. Letting someone more experienced do it is the safest option and if you wanna do cartilage piercing then i Higley recommend you to let a professional do it since its thicker and can be more severe then your earlobe if something were to go wrong.
Damn, they are simple and work like a charm. Thanks for the review!
I have pierced all up my ear with these and they are fantastic always use these if i need it😊
just used mine, i had my friend actually do it for me and it was very easy just don’t hesitate and do it
All piercers swear on hypodermic needles instead of something like a blunt nail. These days they are so perfectly sharp, it's the the way to go.
Bleeding can still occur and you can shine through the ear a bit with light before, bit it's still luck whether you hit some vein or not.
Some even have a sticker on the doors saying "professionals don't use ear piercing guns".
Wish I had these 20 years ago as they would have saved a lot of pain, blood and infections.
Never tried these but I do have piercings, five in each ear, studs exactly like these. I had mine done at a hair salon. They used a spring operated gun, it took months to heal because piercing guns like these click types use blunt trauma, a needle piercing heals quickly. I would never use these things from eBay. I would think spring operated guns hurt less than these things. That's my experience of piercings of the ear.
I bought two on amazon so thanks
Dare I say, 'spit n twist' in the 70's! and I never had any lurgy's to speak of. Also there was the time with the Ice cube, needle, and cork! but again lurgy free ;-)
That makes me think of me at age 14 (30 years ago). My pal wanted a stud for whatever reason, but was afraid to go and get it done properly. He didn't want his mum finding out. He just bought a stud and I obligingly shoved a big safety pin through his lug and spent half an hour holding him down and wiggling the stud through where the safety pin had been. He was quite purple coloured by the end of that.
OMG I watch a ton of videos your video was definitely heaven sent to blow up picture really made a difference thank you so much
01:31 - You can see the end with the catch has a bit curved guide, so the contraption can even fall off almost freely after it did its job.
I came here for the tutorial thanks and I did it on both my ears now I have two piercings in each ear and I have the exact one and the earrings are beautiful (I did it before watching just to make sure I did it right) I have two normal stud earrings that are hearts that I got pierced when I was 2 months and when my mum told me I was like "wtf" but they were originally ruby studs (my birth stone) and I have these right above them
Admittedly I have a few piercings but because I'm the last person I'd trust with a sharp needle going through my ear or nose. So even if this was high quality I still wouldn't use it... still interesting to see you can actually buy this.
I just used this 10/10 would recommend
How did it go in the long run? :)) doing mine tomorrow
@@nicolehennessy7380 Now I wonder. How is your ear now? Getting mine soon...:)
@@Mina-pv1cs really good! I did it less then a month ago now and they have no more pain and are nearly healed! The guns are actually really good it takes a while to get confidence to actually push the button and do them but it really doesn’t hurt and I have a very low pain tolerance, hurt way less then a needle!
That’s one DAMN big picture and it really DAMN realistic
I've used them on my daughter's ears. They are excellent.
hmmm... is there a kit for "prince albert"'s? enquiring minds need to know... ;)
clive. i think youre aright, you seem like someone id get on with. lots in common from watching your videos. keep them posted, keeps me entertained at nights when im cold on my boat lol
Nice one!
I'd looked at these when considering more earrings. I'd previously had a shop done earring and these use more or less the same system to make the fit. I did spot lots and lots of variations when looking at this type however and that was one reason why I was put off. The other reason is that this type of fitting will slightly scar the hole as it forces flesh apart when piercing.
Far better to get a friend to use a (sterile) large-ish hypodermic syringe needle. They cut flesh very cleanly and cause little scarring - ideal if the wearer is wanting to go for large sized holes in their earlobe. Syringes do tend to make it bleed a little but to be honest it's barely anything.
I've a request Clive - is there any chance you could review one of the cheap Chinese tattoo machines for us? They can be had for around £22 nowadays. The sets include everything from ink to mains plug-in units for power and the coil type tattoo guns.
I've spotted open circuit foot pedals, dodgy power connectors, the lot.
Cheers!!
+Zeal Ashwar Strangely enough, the Tattoo machine is on my bench right now....
I pierced my ear with a sewing needle. I heated it, red hot, with a Bic lighter. Than pushed it through. That's how a real man does it. Screw the pain. Than I replaced the needle with a finish nail. Ooraa.
I pierced my ears recently with the disposable piercers from Amazon. I didn't have a problem. There are different types available you can choose from.
Usually im afraid of needles but one day I decided to pierce my ear by my self. I got a sterile needle (had these for modeling stuff (glue, color etc.)), cleaned my ear and got a potato. It was not really painful but the sound is irretating. I had no earring and I used the needle and the rubber from a pencil. The next days, I sometimes pulled out the "earring" and I punched a bunch of holes, because I couldn't find the right hole. Had this for about 2 weeks but than after a night, I lost one rubber part and I removed it.
Also it was the "gay" ear (the right one) and I thought buying a proper earring, would result that I needed to do another hole.
It healed with no problem and I had no big irretations on my ear. It got a bit thicker but not that much, that I needed to worry.
I think diy is not always a good solution. Going to a good piercer, might be better and worth the money. There are 2 ways to make holes. One is simply forcing a stick into the ear and the other is to removing some flesh. Removing the flesh with a hollow needle, results in a cleaner hole. When you even want to stretch you hole, the picker even can get a bigger needle, so that you can skip a bit. It's not much but saves you some money.
The problem with diy, is that you might be a bit shaky. When a friend makes the hole for you, it might be better, when the friend is not that afraid that he can hurt you.
Also using a old needle and heating it up, is by far the worst thing that you can make.
Hmmm... I am actually tempted to buy one and re-do mine.
+James Pawson id jsut say goto a jewlars store, usualy theyd do it cheap artleast they do here
The gun type ear piercing guns are notorious for not being easily sterilized and in use they get covered in microscopic droplets of sprayed blood. So in untrained hands they present are real contamination risk. A one shot pre sterilized device makes a lot of sense, though probably not for DIY use.
Always get piercings, even ears done at a proper piercing shop, with proper health and safety regimes.
Love the random videos.
GAAAAAARRRR CLIVE THE PIRATE!!!
I think this may be the single most horrifying thing I've ever seen here. Not only is the 'sterilization' up to question, but I have to wonder what the stud is made of/plated in because for obvious reasons I find it hard to believe it's silver.
I couldn't imagine using something like this on myself and I'm not even afraid of needles. Imagine someone with a fear of needles trying to use this on themselves. The last time I had my ears pierced was for a 2nd set of holes in my lobes and was probably 10 years ago but I think the entire price was less than $40 (circa '08-'09) which included a pair of gold-plated starter cubic zirconia studs. I don't know what something like that would cost now in the UK but I'd still consider it a worthwhile price vs the possible pain and/or mutilation you might cause to yourself using this. Not to mention having it done professionally you have a place to go or call should something amiss happen with your new piercings such as infection or piercings that won't stop bleeding.
Both times I had my ears pierced (once when I was ~8 yrs old and the 2nd time ~10 years ago) were done professionally with a piercing gun and I never had any problems with either set of piercings. Of course, both times I religiously cleaned them and kept the starter set in for longer than the recommended time.
When you said you had a gold hoop style earring, I was half expecting some big tacky plastic thing you'd find attached to the ear of someone called Senga in a place like Maryhill...Thankfully I was wrong
The first time I pierced my ear, it was with a hinged hoop with a needle-sharp point. Bit of TCP and a bit sore for a while. The second time was with an old silver hat pin, TCP - no problem. Then my mate wanted his done.. Boiled the hat pin, TCP..... The hole at the front was okay, but maybe his ear had collagen or something in the way - it just wouldn't go though, despite several attempts to get to the back of the lobe. Blood running down his neck. Last time I saw that bloke he still never had a pierced ear.
You. You ignited my interest in searching for those videos.
Hate and love you at the same time. Hope these piercing guns at least work quickly. And I never allow anyone to pierce my ears because if I want to, I got a needle and enough courage to do it myself.
I was nervous for a moment Clive was going to bring out an actual ear.
I cringed at the title...diy ear piercer? Nupe.
+faith bartlett (faithalicous) Right, whatever happened to the good old 18 gauge sewing needle
+faith bartlett (faithalicous) That was after I changed the title from Snap action flesh perforator too.
+bigclivedotcom LOL :-D
+therealnightwriter
A bear, you must love claws and death lol :-D
+faith bartlett (faithalicous) It's not that bad, I did it with a sterile sewing needle, just freeze the fuck outta your ear lobes with ice cubes and you wont feel a thing
does tradesman mean
a: when you start your own business after finishing an apprenticeship
or b: you have just finished your apprenticeship successfully?
A tradesman is the UK equivalent of a journeyman. It's usually when you have completed your apprenticeship.
personally, i use a large hypodermic needle for all mine. I've done my lips, ears, and other bits, plus many on other people (clean new needles, obviously) and never had one go bad, or even cause more then a second of pinch like pain. i think, using professionally sharp hypos means more control, and less pain. if required, numb with ice first. though, i find the pain kinda sexy, im weird like that haha
Diy Prince albert anyone? lol
+jusb1066 A real DIYer would just use a fishing hook, none of this fancy plastic ebay crap
+jusb1066 Nope lol
+Rok Hamler
Damn I've just had breakfast. It's back on the outside now :(
Fuck that mate.
+jusb1066 Prince Alberts seem like a bad idea. I've actually pierced the frenulum of my penis myself with a sewing needle and thread though!
It's a procedure you can do if your frenulum is too short to correct it.
I did my ear piercing with a flat Tack and some alcohol prep pads not recommended unless you're really really tough
Probably sterilized with either gamma radiation or ethylene oxide gas. For something like that, I'd guess on gamma since that can penetrate an airtight package where EO cannot. Its a fairly common thing for single-use medical devices. I work for a company that offers both processes, the particular plant I work at uses gamma.
The trigger gun thingy is how they did it for me aswell, they gave me a choice in color ball before hand and it shot the thingy i wanted through my ear, didnt feel a thing. only heard a snap and it was in.
I want this man's magnoflorious beard.
sitting on my bathroom floor abt to pierce my ears and decided to look up a video 😶
How did it go?
Nice.. But is there something that can CLOSE pierced earrings?
I heard TCA acid works.. but sounds scary..
lots of blood and cuts in the videos.
but you still think they're funny.
and after watching some...
I'm with ya. :-P
Don't try to give yourself a Prince Albert, Clive! :P
Man I was so excited for a live demo and then... foam. :/
Lol. I didn't know this existed as a thing.
Ow. No. I've been looking into getting pierced ears, but I rather get it done by hand (most stores use a "gun"). By hand prevents damage to your ear and minimizes weirdness.
I'm going to get it done at the same place I got my tattoo.
First? also, what a horrible idea... I can imagine some young girls trying this without enough finger pressure and pulling and tearing... it just sounds bad lol.
Girls in my school used to do it with a needle and a potato. That actually seems safer than this.
