I recently got my ears pierced, and it gives me so much euphoria. Like it is a simple little thing, but it just compounds with everything good that happend throughtout my transition. It just goes so much better then I could have ever expected ๐Ÿฅฐ

Woo! Congrats!

Congrats! Earrings feel so nice and can really help pull together a look. Anodized titanium is great and I can't recommend it enough- it's a good metal for your ears and you'll get tons of compliments!

I hope I will, and lil question, do you know any legit seller of such earrings? As you seem to have some idea about it

[โ€“] SeafoamRobin 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know of any online since I buy mine at a local shop. I'd look for any that mention they're implant-grade and to what standard they're compliant with. In regards to standards, I can personally vouch for ASTM F-136 but there's also ASTM F-67 and ISO 5832-3.

I'm happy for you! I suppose I should eventually get mine pierced, but it's not a priority and right now I really don't want to spend money.

What did you get for earrings?

[โ€“] Foidi 1 points 1 year ago

For now I got simple silver from piercing salon to heal. Later I wanna get anodized titanium ones
