Hmm, Another Piercing?

Drazic said:
Cannular is about the safest way of body piercing full stop. It's super hyginic but you can't make any mistake with them!

Stick it through, pull the needle back leaving the cannular in there, feed the first few mm of jewery in the canular, pull it all through and hey presto.

Now try doing it with a Blade type neddle, it'll hurt you customer/patent a lot more than anyhting going and is bloody messy word for word

having twice had the experience of having to retire a piercing and cut shards of plastic out of my own flesh due to cannulas shattering because they are not designed to be used in piercings (and the compressive forces placed on the cannula when you push it fully through tough tissue being too much/in the wrong direction).

blades are as clean (or even more so - far easier for an ultrasonic and autoclave to clean than a cannular) and (in my opinion) far easier to use.

as for pain/blood...that's all down to technique rather than type of needle.

plus, a blade needle means for a far quicker and simpler procedure. stick it through, follow through with jewelery and secure the jewelery. of course if its a pa or nostril, you may need to use a receiving tube but you would with a cannular also...and the tissue is tough enough to cause problems with a cannular anyway.

Canulars you don't re-use. You dump in a sharps bin which is bright yellow.

Even blades you dump.

Blue Banaha reuses them in an Auto clave if they ever learn how to use one.

I love canualrs. I find a tiny bit of KY jelly helps too. I've done some cool stuff.

PA i use canualr, never had any problems. Even did my own and now at an 18% stretch from first phase.

oh, I wasn't talking about reusing sharps. a disgusting practice if ever I saw one...but quite often, needles (whether blade or cannular) are bought in bulk and have to be repackaged for use. repackaging should always include an ultrasonic cycle and an autoclave cycle.

I have some nightmare stories about a few studios...

I guess I (and others) must have unusually tough skin ;)

I've always preferred lubriderm over ky...blades slide in like a knife through butter.

Will do - get the lobe done in prep for a small plug? or scaffolding accross the top?

i think it might look bettter if i start with scaffolding to be honest. but i dunno - what do you think?

Both lobes @ 1.6mm or higher if they will do it.
Then wait 6 months.
Then stretch.
Then wait up to 2 months.
Then stretch.

Imo

find a good piercer who will do your lobes at 3.2mm (if your lobes are suitable), wait 6 months then go to 4mm...then 3 months before going to 5...
