How Yahoo's Acquisition of Tumblr MIGHT Change...
If Tumblr changes for the worse as a result of the Yahoo buyout, then this blog will be moved to either Buzznet or WordPress. I won’t abandon you guys.
But for now, lets just see how the rest of 2013 plays out. And if push comes to shove I’ll let you know.
andesandsea asked: Hey again, this is just a follow-up on the whole feeling faint ordeal. Thankfully it was only the one time and so far my nose has healed up a dream. Maybe just a heads up to those out there who also felt faint during cleaning. Again, it only happened to me once, so if it is a repeated occurrence contact your piercer immediately as it may be a reaction to the jewlery or a sign that the piercing...
Anonymous asked: Hi, so I've had my nose pierced for about 4 months and I changed my hoop to a smaller stud and the hole seems to have gotten smaller and I cannot fit the hoop back in. I want to wear the hoop but it won't fit, what should I do? :)
Anonymous asked: i had my nose pierced for 5 months already, however recently the underside area near my nose piercing in my nostril has started to feel a little tender, could it be an infection?
loserlibeth asked: Hello~ So I got my nose pierced about 8 weeks ago, and 2 weeks ago I took my nose stud out and it ended up taking me about 3 hours to put it back in. The irritation caused it to get very infected. It's been 2 weeks and the bump hasn't gotten any smaller or anything, I've been cleaning it with antibacterial soap and sea salt and water but that hasn't helped, and I'm worried...

deathisntblonde asked: Okay, I have a question, I got my nose pierced about 4 months ago back in February, and I haven’t had any problems with it at all, but the skin around it is still very red, and it never really goes away? I’ve been cleaning every morning and night with the cleaning solution. Any ideas or tips on how to help get rid of this? Thanks!

bonezpresley asked: Just wanted to add to the answer to the anon who asked about making a nose ring smaller. I'm not pro, but the time I went to get my stud changed to a threaded hoop (no ball closure, just one that twists open) and went to my local shop, I asked for the most "snug" size I could get, and apparently it sometimes depends on the size of your nose and where the piercing is. Try going to a...
Anonymous asked: Hi, so I've had my nose pierced for about two years now and always wore a stud up until a few months ago when I was stupid and bought a hoop with the ball that you have to bend open to put on. ( sorry for not knowing the proper name. ) That one was soon too bent to use even though I opened it up and down not left and right. I'm planning on buying a new one and I was just wondering what...
andesandsea asked: Thank you for the quick reply, that does comfort me. However, today during the process of cleaning my piercing I began to feel very faint and had to lay down a couple of minutes. This is weird because it doesn't hurt and thought they was a little bit of blood it wasn't enough to make me dizzy. Also, I have my nipple pierced, which bled more during healing but it never made me feel faint....

andesandsea asked: Hey there! I got my nose pierced yesterday morning and all was well but today after my shower it started bleeding a bit, and once I cleaned around the area it started bleeding once more. It doesn't bleed much but it's not exactly attractive either and it hurts a tad. I was wondering, is this is normal or not? I also got it pierced at a very reputable place, been there before for my nip...

Anonymous asked: So I bought an 18 Gauge Stainless Steel Nose Hoop - 5/16", but the hoop is too small. I can't get the end to where my piercing hole actually is, otherwise it would fit. I'm going to buy another but I don't know which I should get out of 20 Gauge 3/8" or 20 Gauge 5/16". Can you tell me the difference out of them and which you think would be best?
btny asked: Ok so I ordered a nose hoop online and I was certain I was 20g until i compared it to one of my current nose rings and I realized I was actually 18g. This isn't really a problem for me since I don't really care about size but regarding safety concerns: is it more susceptible to infections? and I also heard about the "cheese cutting effect" would i be more likely to get that if...

Anonymous asked: I just got my nose done today, and the hoop the piercer used looks a little big on my nose. I feel like it's sort of embarrassing! Also, I think it's a 16g and a little bit bigger than the average gauge used for girls. I really want to have a smaller hoop put in instead because it's really bothering me. When can I go back (preferably to a DIFFERENT piercer) and get the ring changed?

almightyhannah asked: Hi! I've had my nose pierced since September and I've always wanted a hoop, I have one in but it won't close all the way at the ends, and its not circular, but more of an oval looking shape. It's driving me CRAZY. Any tips on making hoops look normal?

Anonymous asked: I have an 18 gauge hoop in now, and I want to get a bigger ring. Does that mean I'll have to stretch my piercing? If so will that be very painful? what's the biggest gauge size for nose hoops? Can I use a septum hoop as a nose hoop?
