I got pierced with bad jewelry and a thick 14g curved barbell too. Switching the jewelry saved my piercing, some piercers have no idea what they’re doing I swear.
‘’-_- me too. My helix was pierced with the same and after 10 month of bumps and bleeding and pain I switched it to a straight bar. After one month no bumps no pain no bleeding or leaking. Now I know to ask what jewelry they’ll use before they do it.
When I got my daith pierced, they pierced it with a 14g and it took literal years for it to heal. I can't find any pretty daith rings in that size, so I just wear 16g now, but it moves around so much.
Is it bad to get a 14g for piercings like the conch? I got my conch today with a 16g but my friend got hers with a 14g a long time ago and her's took forever to heal (about a year)
@@asmrsleep3079 its not the normal size used for this piercing ive heard. With 14g the hole will be bigger which means more area that needs to heal. The jewelry might be a bit heavier as well which will make it harder to heal. After i switched to the smaller 16g size i had zero problems and the piercing healed really fast!
Is no one going to tell her? No amount of opal is going to hide all the crust and bumps... why get another piercing if current ones are hard for you to take care of?
I have my industrial pierced and I wash mine it’s just a very long healing process and however much she cleans it, it can still go crusty and heal like that as it’s quite a long period of time it takes to heal
I’ve had my industrial pierced for 9 years and it STILL crusts and swells sometimes, depending on if my hair gets caught in it, if I yank it with a hairbrush, or sleep on that ear. Her industrial is the only piercing to me that looked a little iffy and honestly sometimes that’s just the way they look on certain days, even cleaning it once to twice a day.
Her ears didn’t look infected, if anything a little dry and irritated to me. She just drove for 17 hours for fuck sake, maybe she skipped cleaning her ears for a day or so. You never know!
@@emmacato5741 Even if that's the case it shows that she could be doing more for it. I know that everyone is different but mine is still healing too, and with the care it's been given it has never looked like that.
Depends on what the waiver said and what the conversation was regarding the jewelry. Even then, it would be hard without evidence of what happened in the shop. She could have very well picked that particular jewelry because it was the cheapest one they had. Also a warning sign that they used a horseshoe in that area. That does not look like it's meant to be there, and piercing with horseshoes and hoops could mean a harder healing process. But as for a lawsuit, she would need evidence of their care instructions (whether they could have led to the issues with her ear) and also if they sold her that jewelry under the premise that it was good quality or not. It wouldn't be worth her time, honestly. Best to just use word of mouth and leaving reviews on all online platforms to warn other people.
I got my conch done around 3 months ago and I have a habit of sleeping on that ear. Since I have had the bar changed out with a horseshoe I've discovered that I can easily just pop the outer part of the shoe into the inside of my ear and I can lay on that ear with no problem and it hasn't agitated it whatsoever.
@@junksies2154 you shouldn't be scared :) it will be totally worth it when u get it done ! Also everyone's pain tolerance is different you won't know how it's going to feel till u get it done
Junksies honestly it didn’t hurt at all, but i have a high pain tolerance and i have gotten a lot of piercings so i’m used to that. You should totally get it the results are 100% worth it
Lydia Gragg Lydia Gragg yes you are supposed to be cleaning the piercings daily but what nikki is trying to say is that piercings get crusty in between cleaning periods. you’re only supposed to clean the piercing once a day so that’s 24 hours in between cleaning and it’s bound to get a little dirty. also some people’s body’s heal differently. i have 14 piercings myself and my conch got bumps like that on it a couple of times and i was cleaning it exactly how i was supposed to but that was just my body’s way of healing. not everyone heals perfectly when it comes to piercings so don’t say rude shit like that about people unless u know the full story hun.
rykah childs exactly! These comments are so rude towards this girl! Plus a lot of information is being thrown around. I have my helix pierced and for most of the healing experience I had a little IRRITATION bump on my piercing. It went away after my helix was completely healed. My daith has two bumps and my pierced (who is APP certified and has a fine jewelry collection plus won a shit ton awards) has told me it looked fine as I got it changed on Saturday. A lot of people in these comments are so misinformed.
I DMd them on insta to ask for advice about my piercing and whoever was replying was rude and not helpful at all. They pretty much laughed at me and said see a doctor.
@@sldkfk7858 I deleted the messages because it was from a while back but basically they made me feel like and idiot for asking what I asked as if I was supposed to know and then the second time they were ever harsher and just sent 3 words back to me.
It’s my 16th birthday in like 15 mins and I’m going to get my belly pierced in a few days!! But unfortunately I can’t get it done at lulu’s because i am in the UK ☹️😊🎂
I had my conch pierced with a hoop and had no issue. I’ve actually had most of my piercings done with hoops and never had any issues. The ones I’ve had with barbels are the ones I’ve had issues with.
I'm sorry but I don't understand why people keep getting colored jewelry for fresh piercings. Why even risk it just get standard surgical steel and when it heals then change it. Its not worth potentially having issues with it
So i got on the lulus website to see about a new septum ring and i saw three 14g rings. I was wondering if there will be any more 14g septum rings that are prettier then the basic horseshoe? No hate there is a wide variety of jewelry, I just to have a bigger gauge and I would love to support lulus body piercing.
Conches can take up to 4-6 months just to heal the outside and a year or more to heal completely through. You should still be cleaning it every day at the 2 month mark and try really hard not to bump it. :)
I discovered you guys a few days ago and I'm addicted!!! Subscribed notifications on and loving every episode... Showing some love all the way from Alabama
Am I the only one who's piercings feel uncomfortable when I use the h2o spray? Any piercing I've ever tried to use it on continued to hurt I now use saline wound wash and they heal so fast I'm shook. Idk maybe it's just my body preference
Nikki W The water spray that they use and recommend is a saline wound wash that doesn’t have any added chemicals or preservatives. The one you were using probably had preservatives or something you were allergic to.
Yayyyyy for a vlog!! And almost everyone was in it again 😍😍 I just ordered the aftercare pack as my Shen Men piercing is still healing and my antimicrobial soap is almost gone. Can't wait to try y'alls products!
@@rosevampire3755 Ouch, that's a big gauge - at least it feels like it. I just gotta find nice jewelry to put in it now. Right now I still have in what I was pierced with, since it's only 5 weeks old.
Same. Got mine double done the Friday before Easter. They were super painful and just now quieted down after a week! LOL! I think they are on the healing track now...thankfully.
My conch was my least painful out of all 11 I have, but the healing was horrible. Keloids on both sides and it took almost 2 years to heal completely. 😫
@@airendittmar6384 How long after you got pierced did you first change the barbell? I got mine done about 5month ago but i still frequently have bumps and some little infections. I'd like to have your advice!
Ohhh, that looked brutal! I have 3 piercings on my lower ear lobes and one cartilage piercing on both ears. My right ear got a keloid? On the cartilage and I actually forced it to drain and thankfully I didnt scar or anything and looks really good now. But my cartilage were done at a piercing kiosk at the mall and I was 20 and was a spur of the second who cares about my body sort of moment. Didnt sleep for 6 months cause I couldnt lay on either side of my head please I got my second holes done at the same time. Oh it was bad all over and my cartilage are both slanted piercings. They healed great cause I was really good at cleaning and checking on them. But I dont wear regular stud earrings in them cause the slant of the piercing goes right into the back of my ear and I'm so not ok with it. I actually used the horse shoe design earing with two balls on it after the hinged hoop ones started leaving indents on the spot they rest in my cartilage. Then eventually I found these short little rod like earrings with two balls and I love them. No pokes in the back and are long enough that my piercings get plenty of breathing room and am quite happy with them. But now I cant decide if I wanna do a second cartilage or a 4th lower ear lobe piercing. It's been about 6 years since my last piercings.
Ive just got my tragus done and I'm really paranoid about it going bad or infected :/ I'm cleaning it 3 or 4 times a day, can it get irritated if you clean it too much ?
I was told by my piercer to clean around that many times a day. If you use a sea salt solution be more cautious as it can dry the area up with too many uses, but a saline one will be fine. As long as you don't touch it or irritate when u clean you should be fine.
I got my conch pierced with a 14g and I didn’t have much problem, the only thing was that the bar was too long, like, massively long, so after a month I changed it to a shorter one and in like a month or two it was completely healed
How long does it take before you can sleep on a helix piercing. Also, I want a double helix but is it better to wait for a single helix to heal or do both at the same time?
Took me a little less than about a year and a half. Patience is EVERYTHING with cartilage piercings. Sucks but once it's fully healed nothing irritates it anymore. I sleep on it, change the jewelry and fiddle with it.
I got a triple helix done at the same time. I think as long as you get it on one side you should be fine. Sleeping can be a bit hard at first but at least i had the other side to sleep on.
I just did a double helix a few days ago. Also got a rook 3 weeks ago. All on the same side. My reasoning is that I'll already be cleaning one so I might as well just clean all three at once. Especially since I have dry skin so the salt water just makes it worse sometimes. That way all of them can soak at the same time for the same length of time instead of having to extend the soaks out for over a year and a half had I waited for each one to heal individually before adding another. Really you just have to pick what would be best for you.
Might as well get them done at the same time. You get the healing period over sooner and you can, usually, salt soak them at the same time so the process isn't much longer than with just one. I got my one done and it's been...8 months and I was just now getting to the point that I could sleep on it. Changing jewelry and fiddling with it is no problem but it still doesn't like me laying on it for very long periods of time. Neither does the rook I got done at the same time. They can take up to a full year to heal completely through, so keep that in mind.
btw warning for u guys do research before you get a piercing beause a lot of piercers will misinform u,thats what happened when i got my ears pierced at claires,they told me i could change in three weeks and because of that my ears became mildly infected for a few days
I have a question for you and your subscribers... I have my earlobes pierced 2 holes on each side, first hole when I was like five, and second about 10 years later... after the healing of the second time I got an systemic infection in my stomach and after that both holes have been completely unusable... healed but when I put jewelry in (gold, silver, rvs) I get an infection after a few hours... both holes.. I tried almost everything... would repiercing it help? Greetings from the Netherlands!
Old lady piercee here. It was common back in the 90s to pierce with a 14 for everything (yes, this did look as ridiculous as you'd think sometimes.) and some older piercers and their apprentices are still in the habit. It won't hurt anything to leave it at 14 but a lot of cute jewelry these days is a 16. DON'T take out the jewelry until it has healed properly no matter what you decide- you can damage the piercing and create opportunity for infection. Once it's healed you can use whichever gauge you'd prefer.
It’s not the gauge that was the issue, it was the quality of the jewelry(should be surgical stainless steel for initial piercings or a real , not mixed, metal jewelry..I’ve seen platinum or tungsten) and the type. It should be flat back for conch piercings. Every place I have been to for piercings, and I have a total of 20, with 15 in my ears) have let me know this.
@@mariamkhatib7950 I would just leave it at 14gauge just make sure you don't put jewelry with small balls that would be able to get pulled into the piercing
@@mbc264 yeah I had piercing training and have worked as a piercer for free at a family friends tattoo and picking shop and I also have 15 piercings in my ears and 3 on my body
My conch was pierced with a 14g, it had been a year and it was still painful. Took it out two days ago and put in a 16g, had instant relief. I’ve been soaking it and it has been doing well! Poor girl
amanda griffiths yeah, i was planning on cuz where i live we have limited piercing shops and where i go is the best one here and they don’t let you choose what you have put in so they put a straight bar in. if that makes any sense🤣
@@mia-felicitylowe1299 the place I go to does the same thing I got my conch done a little over 2 months ago and its healing beautifully especially when considering I have a hard time during the healing process. Definitely one of my favorite piercings!
I got mine done over a year ago, it was done at a decent place and I took care of it properly and it healed very nicely and it is by far my favorite piercing. Don't worry too much about it, if you do your research and go to a piercer that knows how to do their job, it'll be a walk in the park 😉
I love my conch! Just make sure that your piercer is good and know what they are doing. Also they should have a straight piercing like a labret and when its healed you could switch it to a hoop :)
Can nipple piercing move? It don't look straight anymore, it's not bad but it's not as even anymore. Can it reject that would make it move.? I have had it about 8 months now.
I have a double conch at a 14 honestly the best size for me but the lady only wanted to do 16 :/ like I get it. But they healed wonderfully and all of my piercings match I’m a 90’s kid after all all 14!
KoroCreations in my opinion you should hold off the tea tree. If you use a good sea salt solution you wouldn’t need the tea tree. That often does more harm than good
@Sarah Weeks it's been three years and I still have my piercing lol. The person that pierced me recommended that regime with tea tree. Honestly now I know better and also very lucky I still have a nice looking industrial.
It’s not even keloids but irritation bumps which is perfectly NORMAL when a piercing is still healing. Some of you guys are so misinformed about piercers it’s ridiculous.
Not keloids, but hypertrophic scarring. There’s a bit of a difference between them. Hypertrophic scarring goes away but keloids are permanent without surgical scar revision. True keloids are also pretty rare and people who get them typically know they get them before they get piercings or tattoos. Hypertrophic scarring is common early on in healing but often goes away on its own or without minimal work. Massaging with oil after adequate healing- to the point of safe jewelry changes- can do it.
Finally a girl that puts her hair up while getting pierced
I got pierced with bad jewelry and a thick 14g curved barbell too. Switching the jewelry saved my piercing, some piercers have no idea what they’re doing I swear.

Crust is normal in healing process. These guys try to make it seem like an infection.
The crust is just lymph fluid and blood cells. It shows that your piercing is actually healing, not an infection guys.
I got rid of my numb with tee tree oil and compressing it with a qtip. It hurt but you will never know it was there.
Bump not numb.
The first girls other piercings look infected and just nasty. They should not have pierced anymore because i doubt she will take care of it
For real. Thats really unprofessional...
They looked dirty but not infected also it’s her choice they can’t stop her

I wonder could she have sued the place that did her ear because your jewelry should not be changing colors especially if it’s real
They make you sign a waiver so you cant.....
Depends on what the waiver said and what the conversation was regarding the jewelry. Even then, it would be hard without evidence of what happened in the shop. She could have very well picked that particular jewelry because it was the cheapest one they had. Also a warning sign that they used a horseshoe in that area. That does not look like it's meant to be there, and piercing with horseshoes and hoops could mean a harder healing process.
But as for a lawsuit, she would need evidence of their care instructions (whether they could have led to the issues with her ear) and also if they sold her that jewelry under the premise that it was good quality or not.

I was told by my piercer to clean around that many times a day. If you use a sea salt solution be more cautious as it can dry the area up with too many uses, but a saline one will be fine. As long as you don't touch it or irritate when u clean you should be fine.
Love u guys 😇
Where can I buy that scissor like tool you use to screw on/take off the back balls?
I got my conch pierced with a 14g and I didn’t have much problem, the only thing was that the bar was too long, like, massively long, so after a month I changed it to a shorter one and in like a month or two it was completely healed
How long does it take before you can sleep on a helix piercing. Also, I want a double helix but is it better to wait for a single helix to heal or do both at the same time?
Took me a little less than about a year and a half. Patience is EVERYTHING with cartilage piercings. Sucks but once it's fully healed nothing irritates it anymore. I sleep on it, change the jewelry and fiddle with it.
I got a triple helix done at the same time. I think as long as you get it on one side you should be fine. Sleeping can be a bit hard at first but at least i had the other side to sleep on.
I just did a double helix a few days ago. Also got a rook 3 weeks ago. All on the same side. My reasoning is that I'll already be cleaning one so I might as well just clean all three at once. Especially since I have dry skin so the salt water just makes it worse sometimes. That way all of them can soak at the same time for the same length of time instead of having to extend the soaks out for over a year and a half had I waited for each one to heal individually before adding another. Really you just have to pick what would be best for you.
Might as well get them done at the same time. You get the healing period over sooner and you can, usually, salt soak them at the same time so the process isn't much longer than with just one.
I got my one done and it's been...8 months and I was just now getting to the point that I could sleep on it. Changing jewelry and fiddling with it is no problem but it still doesn't like me laying on it for very long periods of time. Neither does the rook I got done at the same time. They can take up to a full year to heal completely through, so keep that in mind.
btw warning for u guys do research before you get a piercing beause a lot of piercers will misinform u,thats what happened when i got my ears pierced at claires,they told me i could change in three weeks and because of that my ears became mildly infected for a few days
Yea not here tho
Gets infected if your hands or jewelry is not clean
I always use sterile on the piercings for about 6 months after a jewelry exchange
I wanted to buy some jewellery from you guys but it was so expensive for shipping 😓
Hopefully the conch will be my next piercing. 🤞🏼
It's an Awsome piercing! You should really get it😊
What should be the normal gauge for a conch piercing?
I have a question for you and your subscribers... I have my earlobes pierced 2 holes on each side, first hole when I was like five, and second about 10 years later... after the healing of the second time I got an systemic infection in my stomach and after that both holes have been completely unusable... healed but when I put jewelry in (gold, silver, rvs) I get an infection after a few hours... both holes.. I tried almost everything... would repiercing it help?
Greetings from the Netherlands!
have you tried implant titanium? i got pierced with that all the times and i'm super nichel intollerant
@@windaries Dit not try that! Thank you!
I have had my conch for a year on both sides and it was pierced at a 14g also
Shelby Makuski i recently got mine pierced w a 14g . should i put in a 16g earring in it or is it fine to keep it at 14
Old lady piercee here. It was common back in the 90s to pierce with a 14 for everything (yes, this did look as ridiculous as you'd think sometimes.) and some older piercers and their apprentices are still in the habit. It won't hurt anything to leave it at 14 but a lot of cute jewelry these days is a 16. DON'T take out the jewelry until it has healed properly no matter what you decide- you can damage the piercing and create opportunity for infection. Once it's healed you can use whichever gauge you'd prefer.
It’s not the gauge that was the issue, it was the quality of the jewelry(should be surgical stainless steel for initial piercings or a real , not mixed, metal jewelry..I’ve seen platinum or tungsten) and the type. It should be flat back for conch piercings. Every place I have been to for piercings, and I have a total of 20, with 15 in my ears) have let me know this.
@@mariamkhatib7950 I would just leave it at 14gauge just make sure you don't put jewelry with small balls that would be able to get pulled into the piercing
@@mbc264 yeah I had piercing training and have worked as a piercer for free at a family friends tattoo and picking shop and I also have 15 piercings in my ears and 3 on my body
My conch was pierced with a 14g, it had been a year and it was still painful. Took it out two days ago and put in a 16g, had instant relief. I’ve been soaking it and it has been doing well! Poor girl
probably shouldn’t have watched that seeing as i want my conch pierced but oh wellll🤣 it’s too interesting
Go with a straight bar and get a ring when it’s healed.
amanda griffiths yeah, i was planning on cuz where i live we have limited piercing shops and where i go is the best one here and they don’t let you choose what you have put in so they put a straight bar in. if that makes any sense🤣
@@mia-felicitylowe1299 the place I go to does the same thing I got my conch done a little over 2 months ago and its healing beautifully especially when considering I have a hard time during the healing process. Definitely one of my favorite piercings!
I got mine done over a year ago, it was done at a decent place and I took care of it properly and it healed very nicely and it is by far my favorite piercing. Don't worry too much about it, if you do your research and go to a piercer that knows how to do their job, it'll be a walk in the park 😉
I love my conch! Just make sure that your piercer is good and know what they are doing. Also they should have a straight piercing like a labret and when its healed you could switch it to a hoop :)
Where is this shop located?
Can nipple piercing move? It don't look straight anymore, it's not bad but it's not as even anymore. Can it reject that would make it move.? I have had it about 8 months now.
Are u guys only posting once a week now. Cause really missing the daily vlogs. Btw luv u guys
I have motion sickness soo bad watching this, please keep the camera still 🤣🤣🤣
I live all the way in singapore 😣I really want to go to yall to get my other piercings if i intend to get more in the future!(industrial likely)
Liked and subscribed piercer from Houston tx!
I have a double conch at a 14 honestly the best size for me but the lady only wanted to do 16 :/ like I get it. But they healed wonderfully and all of my piercings match I’m a 90’s kid after all all 14!
U need to open a shop in Chicago or mayb just tour all around the us to pierce
My conch was pierced with a 14g as well
you guys should come to canada
Definitely!! especially the Ottawa area.
I want my madusa pierced but I’m having surgery soon so I have to wait until after that…
I've gotten a helix, a conch, and four lobes done and never had an infection or any unusual pains, maybe I just have really good ears or somethin
I might be back in your shop tomorrow! :D Hopefully, I will see all of you guys there!
my piercing looks like the second girl and I don't know how to treat it 😭 please help me
I would like you guys to pierce and fix my two top cartilage but I live in Kansas
I got my industrial a week ago and I clean it 3 time a day with tea tree in the morning and antibacterial through the day. Why am I crusty and itchy?
KoroCreations in my opinion you should hold off the tea tree. If you use a good sea salt solution you wouldn’t need the tea tree. That often does more harm than good
@@shivali thanks! I started sea salt soaks and I'm doing a little better with no itch really :)
Because you are using oil on a fresh piercing…. Bruh. Only use the saline.
@Sarah Weeks it's been three years and I still have my piercing lol. The person that pierced me recommended that regime with tea tree. Honestly now I know better and also very lucky I still have a nice looking industrial.
Love the Hannah Montana in the back
0:56 DJ KHALED, IS THAT YOU!?!?!
Amazing job !!!
In love with your channel 😍
My conch piercing looks like this. I tried everything but the bump keeps getting irritated.
#notificationsquad. Newbie here and already dig all of you. Great work 👍🏻
When you pierce a Counch, aren’t you suppose to use a flat back jewelry?
A Curated Ear
U don't have to but it is recommended to so its less likely to get caught when hit on something
the first girl have keloids on all of her piercings 😭😭
Where?
It’s not even keloids but irritation bumps which is perfectly NORMAL when a piercing is still healing. Some of you guys are so misinformed about piercers it’s ridiculous.
Not keloids, but hypertrophic scarring. There’s a bit of a difference between them. Hypertrophic scarring goes away but keloids are permanent without surgical scar revision. True keloids are also pretty rare and people who get them typically know they get them before they get piercings or tattoos. Hypertrophic scarring is common early on in healing but often goes away on its own or without minimal work. Massaging with oil after adequate healing- to the point of safe jewelry changes- can do it.
I need to take a trip to Cali and get a piercing
Love you all so much!!!!❤❤
I love the opal jewls
