    Another tip before getting your ear pierced that I didn’t hear him mention. This is in general for all piercings and not just helix. Please eat before coming to get pierced. I made the mistake when getting my second helix done a few months back of not eating. I almost passed out because my blood sugar was too low. They had to give me a lollipop, cold ice compress in my neck, and water to prevent me from completely going out.
    So, please please...eat something before getting pierced.

      wait, why? Is it because of the intense pain?

    • @cristinaclancy2665
      @cristinaclancy2665 4 роки тому +1

      No, it is because your body needs the blood sugar to go thru piercing. If you are low in sugar, then your body will pass out.

    Here's one for double helix piercings, if your ear cartilage is super sensitive like mine are, don't get the double done. Do one, wait, do the other. Cause for me that turned the pain from a 8/10 to a 30/10. And next week getting my septum pierced.

    had my double helix pierced for a little over 3 months now and it has been so good to me. i have only snagged it once and that was a pain and when hair gets caught around it it’s annoying, however other than that it’s beautiful and i can’t wait to change my jewelry to hoops.

    I’ve only ever experienced one piercing (had my lobes done at a young age) and I had my helix pierced with a gun which I know isn’t good but at the time I didn’t know. However I never had any issues with the piercing and overall it was a good experience considering I have a very low pain tolerance and a fear of needles.. tomorrow I’m getting my second helix done however this time with a needle and I’m really nervous so I’ve been watching loads of online videos and yours have been so informative and comforting to see others having theirs done. I’m hoping that all will go well tomorrow

      It probably got infected because you washed it so much. You stripped away the good bacteria as well as the bad, so it was more vulnerable when worse bacteria came around. If you get another piercing wash it when you wake up and before you go to bed with salt water, then don't touch it at all throughout the day.
      (Note: I am not a piercer and you should do your own in depth research rather than trust a random internet person lmao)

    Okay. These videos would be really great, but there are a few problems. The audio on this one and the last one of these videos was not up to par. You can really tell when you compare the intro music to the actual content. There was a lot of background noise along with that. This brother also does not speak clearly or slowly enough to really be understood. On the regular vlogs, it usually isn't a problem unless he's really rattling something off because the camera is right up on his mouth, but like this .... it doesn't work. This has the potential to be a great series. Just needs a little tweaking!
