Hi everyone. I'm 26 and from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Signed up here well over a year ago but haven't had much of a chance to post -- mostly lurking. I have 11 piercings (although some of my favourites had to be retired, like my tongue because of gum damage) and one small tattoo -- a gecko that I plan to have redesigned since the original artist blew it out and obscured the detail on it. I have another much larger tattoo currently being custom designed by an exceptional artist here by the name of Nadine Mitchell out of Metamorphosis Custom Tattoo and more than a few piercings being planned, mostly below the belt.
My signature lists my mods. I'm at my goal size of 1/2", which was stretched up from 4ga -- the shrunken size of my ears from my original stretch to 7/16" when I was younger (done all the wrong way -- I used sawed-off knitting needle tapers and I skipped from 0ga to 7/16" in one dead stretch, eeep!). This time 'round I used teflon tape and plenty of time. I've just started amassing a collection of jewelry for my ears.
Current: 1/2" lobes, 4x 14ga lobes on right ear, 14ga daith, 14ga nostril, 14ga bridge, 12ga nipples, gecko tattoo
Retired: 14ga eyebrow, 10ga tongue, 14ga lip, 14ga christina
Future: Christina, VCH, navel, eyebrow, inner labia, custom memorial tattoo
