I'm a busy Dude.
So yeah, a year later I finally get to straightening things up in here. way to go.
I am tattooing full time now, so I probably won’t have time for this. no big loss to y’all, but whatevs. It’s been fun. I’ll probably be around when you least expect it.
Format Change (tl; dr - amirite?)
Hello everyone.
If you’re wondering about my re-reblogging:
I figure it’s time for a little change. I will be separating My Portfolio from my “advice” Because I am sure it irritates the shit out of some of you, but others seem to enjoy it.
Invasiveadornments will be my portfolio.
ModSnob will be for my “advice”.
BTW that title is intended as a joke, it...

justaskylark: I really want my nipples pierced. I’ve been thinking about it, saw and read what could happen if it gets infected………..but I really want them done :(
If you take care of them, they most likely won’t get infected… true infections are actually very rare in professional piercings
question about my labret (lip peircing)
arielleobrien: yeahh; my lip piercing (labret) and this morning my lip had scabbed over my stud and it’s made a mini crater in my lip. I think the crater part is cause maybe to stud is to short, I dunno. But I fear that it might be infected because every so often theres a yellow/white puss (eeewwww!) I tried to google it and found nothing, I was wondering if any of you knew. The scabbing and the...

marzyyy: it just took me like 15 minutes to get it through.
If you are wearing a nose bone, you are probably doing almost as much (sometimes more) damage each time you change it as was done to pierce it. If not, maybe the curve on the nose screw is a little tight for you… Any competent piercer should be able to fix that for you. I find giving it a slightly longer tail makes it easier for...

deannamac: Coming from a girl who has no piercings or tattoos whatsoever, I can’t tell if I’m crazy or not.
Those bitches are permanent.
Semipermanent. Definitely much more of a commitment than a lobe piercing, but way less than a tattoo. A good piercer should be able to remove them with little or no extra scarring - leaving only the actual piercing hole as a scar.
Many companies make...

But the 2 I will do are, one above and one below my 2nd lobe piercing on my right ear, so then there’s 3 in a vertical line like:

Body Modification is something I have ALWAYS loved. I remember when I was only 6 years old I used to tell my parents that I wanted those big holes in my ears. Usually little kids don’t watch National Geographic, or The Discovery Channel. I used to watch it all the time when I…

Hey there, body modification snobs! No need to correct my typo and then suggest you don’t mean any hostility. I’m well aware that Scar Wars is a convention, had I thought it was a shop, I would have used the name “Precision Body Arts” that the photo was labeled with.
Oh and to…

For your follower with HSV-1, tell them to buy a bottle of Colloidal Silver from the health shop and take a tablespoon of it in their mouth everyday, holding it in the mouth as long as possible. Also, tell them to do yoga, stop smoking and drinking and reduce stress. The more oxygen in their system, the harder it is for the virus to survive. So eating lots of...

do you live in the states?
ask one of your friends if they have a friend who pierces ears. and if they do, make sure they do their job, legit.
By “Pierces ears” do you mean “pierces ears with a gun”? :|

Nobody looks like that in my town. Not even in poughkeepsie.
Even when I go down to Manhattan, I don’t see people with full sleeves or chest pieces or anything. So where are they then?
They’re working in Kitchens & Factories & (of course) Tattoo Shops. No time for gallivanting in the streets. ;D

Please don’t use me as a reference of “proper and improper”. My aunt pierced ears professionally years ago and did this as a favor to me.

incredulouslyxfresh:I guess this is what I get for not cleaning my ear piercings every day.. my piercing is infected! It’s oozing. Eww.
Clear or off-white discharge can be normal. What most people think of as infection is actually just an irritation, or part of healing.
The only way to tell 100% that it is an infection is for a Physician to have a culture from the area...

if so, does food ever get stuck in them? just curious.
It’s rare to get food in the piercing itself, but I have had to pull a fish bone out of a piercing for a customer before. More common - People forget to brush the barbell when they are brushing their teeth. Plaque will build up on it just like on your teeth. If the balls aren’t on tight,...

milkthesun:i really miss my lip piercing… i think i’m gonna get it soon, i can hide it under a bandaid till it heals right?
I wouldn’t suggest it. Piercings need to “breathe” (more oxygen helps tissue heal better). Covering it just @ work - sometimes you can get away w/ that. Also - not the same as this, but in a similar vein (also not necessarily directed @ you) -...

Kennely has the right idea in her response to this. I’d just like to add: if you are looking for a stud, a good “nose ring” will be a nostril screw. Nose Bones Are inappropriate for any piercing, healed or not. Do not waste...
