I still remember the first time I took my tongue jewelry out for longer than a meal. It was supposed to be temporary, just a few hours. By the time I tried putting it back in, the opening already felt tighter. That’s when it hit me how quickly oral piercings can change compared to others. […]
When I was considering getting a nose piercing, I realized there was so much more to think about than just the style or the jewelry. And, just as important, what are the rules around parental consent, and what should I know for a safe experience? If you’re here, chances are you’re asking the same questions. […]

Someone takes the ring out for a medical scan, a sports event, or just a few hours of relief, and suddenly reinsertion […]
I remember staring at my fresh lobe piercing in the mirror a few weeks after getting it done, already imagining how much better it would look with hoops instead of starter studs. The piercing looked fine from the outside. No redness, no swelling, and barely any soreness. Naturally, I assumed it was ready. What I […]
I still remember standing outside a piercing studio window, trying to figure out whether the price list actually reflected what people really pay.
