Michael MacLennan Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Well, this isn't the point of the thread, but can anyone tell me the actually repurcussions of having flesh tunnels is? I'd have assumed there'd be bad-ass scarring, or worse, once you'd decided to stop with the little pieces of metal in the ears? I can still see the effects of my tiny eyebrow piercing, and that was years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rass Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 i had a flesh tunnel for about 3-4 years, it was only about 6 mil, but still big enough to be noticed, i took it out about 6-7 months ago and the hole has totally reduced to the point it just looks like i had my ear pierced, i assume it hasn't healed up totally, but to be honest i really cant be fucked checking.No major scarring, no grotesque marks, just a wee hole as if i'd just had a stud through it.

Tav Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 I saw a guy in virgin with them...looked like something I've seen on the documentries about african tribes...I wonder if those big wooden plates in the lower lip/extending yor neck with hoops will become cool?

Guest HARRY Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 If 25 quid for a lip peircing is beyond a joke, I dread to think what the cost of a single plug would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitshine Sonata Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 You mean they put them on the top shelf so you have to reach out for them? but he said he was going to "get them done" at retro rebels.not get the plugs from there. is that what he meant?my head hurts.

Rass Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 Mark at presents used to 'just do them' the procedure he described to me involved half your body going numb from shock or something... i kindly declined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachie Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 Yes Mark used to delight in spouting graphic detail when it came to stuff like that...Still miss working with the bugger though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachie Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 That was the best way to handle Mark tbh, tell him to shut the hell up. Failing that, make him a cup of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nikola Tesla Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Hey thanks for any help people have offered. I had a feeling that getting them done straight off was a proceedure most places wouldn't deal with, but i was merly inquiring out of curiousity( the person i'd seen who had that done wasnt a pretty sight afterwards anyway :S ). Looks like im going to just go through the streching process, once again cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
