sorry dude, but your attitude is pretty lame. not everyone wants to have massive holes in their ears. if she feels like going to 2 that's her prerogative; later she might decide that she wants to increase in size, but they're HER ears and ordering her to gtfo because she's making a decision to stay ...

i've been going naked since my piercer thought my lobe was looking a little weak in one spot (wasn't sure i completely agreed with him, but to be on the safe side...). been this way for about two months now, with daily massages using emu/vit e oil and palmer's stretch mark lotion- amazing stuff for ...

true enough, you need to find the right balance for your own body. common sense applies to both ends of the spectrum.

nice, man, it looks great. i'll give it some more thought. working on my ink atm.

i've been really tempted by septums recently. i never used to like them. i don't think it'd suit my face, though.

throw up some pics, dude.
