I got a piercing and the aftercare paper specifically stated not to use Claire's Aftercare Solution and I got curious. What the fuck is wrong with Claire's.
This is straight from their website.
First fucking red flag: 3 weeks for a lobe piercing and 8 weeks for a cartilage piercing. Umm, what?!?! Lobes take a *minimum* of 4 weeks to heal, so fancy solution will change how long it takes for a wound to heal thay drastically. And don't get me started on the cartilage piercing. 8 weeks?! Really?! That takes a minimum of 4 MONTHS to heal. That's 16 weeks *at the shortest*. They are straight up fucking lying about what this product can do.
Second red flag: the ingredients list. Do you know what sodium hypochlorite is? It's bleach. I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty confident in saying that putting bleach in an open wound will not help the healing process
Third red flag: why does it have an expiration date? And why is that date only 90 days after opening, especially when you recommending this for cartilage peircings, which, may I reiterate, take 4 months or roughly 120 days MINIMUM to heal? Also, what happens after that date? Is it no longer an effective bleach or will it actively harm you like spoiled milk?
Fourth red flag: its not in the picture, but the price on the website said $20 for a cleaning spray that may not actually last through your healing time. My actual cleaning solution was only $10 with only 2oz less and it doesn't bleach my ear or expire
Now I am no lawyer, doctor, or piercer, but I feel like they should be held liable for this shit. They are actually causing harm to children's ears and for what? Profit? Maybe I'm just a radical leftist but that profit margin doesn't seem worth it to me

i just genuinely considered piercing my ear with a safety pin again. which i think describes my current mental space pretty well.
#i already pierced my ears with safety pins once and they turned out fine so#the only difference is that going through cartalige is a bit tougher#i also considered bleaching my hair#the very little hair i have left#since i cut 90% of it off 2 days ago#im doing great guys#peri personal#election stress

Thinking abt the fact that im going to have to retire my surface piercings eventually is :(
#the life of a sage#the amount that both my nape and my belly button act up means theyre going to majorly migrate at some point#and at that point ill have to let them go :/#my belly buttons been mad at me for like 2 weeks ish and my nape is rlly itchy rn and its like calm down pls#i wanna stop having intrusive thoughts abt ripping them out#also on that note the thought of giving myself a couple of cartalige piercings has entered my brain and wont leave#like no were not doing that i wanna get them done properly and for realsies#im also like just in general getting antsy to get another mod bc im done streaching my ears for now#and i havnt gotten anything actually new for well over a year at this point#uhg i feel stagnant and i wanna do something!!!#not rn like im fuckin so tired im dissociating in and out but

Is it true that if a cartalige piercing is done incorrectly your face will be paralyzed or is that something my mom made up to keep me from getting one

peach, strawberry and apricot for the ask game ~
peach: do you have any piercings or tattoos?
I have 4 piercings and 3 tattoos
The cartalige of my right ear done twice and both my loves
As for tattoos. I got the Gemini constellation on my right hip. A small star by the left them. And infinite from sonic forces logo inside my left wrist
The infinite tattoo is my newest and prob my fave at least till I get more
strawberry: favorite desserts
Cheesecake!!! Hands down cheesecake!!
apricot: what do you do when you’re sad?
I do lots of things. I watch funny videos (markipliers turbo dismount videos or skate 3 videos are always something to make me laugh). Chat with those I care about like @chocolatechippi or @pastelplantlover . Or draw sad vent doodles

10, 12, 26, 39 :)
10: want any piercings?
Yknow I’ve been thinking about piercings a lot lately and I really just need someone to talk me into getting them and that I’ll love them. I’m thinking one of those bars that goes across your ear and some other stuff but nothing in the actual ear lobe, just the cartalige
12: relationship status?
Single as fuck with no desire to have a non platonic relationship with someone
26: biggest pet peeves?
My brother does a bunch of annoying stuff like grinding his teeth and curling his tongue over his lip to look like he has these slimy huge lips and that bothers me, his chewing bothers me too. There’s a bunch of other stuff too like when someone I don’t like is better than me at something I enjoy and when my friends I’ve had for years turn on me and stuff like that.
39: favorite ice cream flavor?I love basically every flavor. This local company makes a really amazing cookies and cream ice cream though!!!Thanks for sending this!!!
