I Want One!!!!



Recommended Posts

Okay, so I saw this cool piercing on the news yesterday and although I am about as conservative as they come, THIS one I could do. I am trying to find something fun to do to Celebrate my weight loss.

Check it out:

Sage's Urban Art Tattoo and Piercing

Then go to "Piercing" then click "enter" then go down the page to "Dermal Anchors" and it's the 6th one from the left.

I could buy the item and have a doc implant the anchor under my skin. I could have my jeweler make a real top part that is an actual gem stone.

It would end up looking like a diamond or Tanzanite is glued to my wrist. It's like a pierced earring only the anchor is under my skin on top of my wrist.

What do you think? I saw the tattoo guy doing it on the news, took about 3 minutes or less.

I don't want a tattoo place doing it, I want a real doc doing it. ;)

I'm not doing anything without running it by "TheFox" (member) because I am wayyy out of my league on this one. Poor girl, I've sent her at least a gazillion PMs tonight with links asking questions. :)

Thoughts?

I'd be afraid of something getting caught on it. That would REALLY hurt.

I think I'll stick with standard tattoos for body art.

I hate tattoos, I think they are fugly and they are forever. If I decide I hate this I can just unscrew the gem setting and have the anchor removed. It doesn't have to be forever.

Interesting. Probably not for me tho. Only my ears are pierced right now. I want to get the cartalidge(sp) part of my ear done (been putting that off forever, for no reason). I've had my tongue pierced, but I took it off for my surgery and never put it back in. I have had my belly button pierced, but basically, I was too fat for it to heal right, so it's another mini goal now :o

I just can't get the image out of my head of a grocery bag or something getting caught on it and yanking it out. Owie.

Yeah, that's what TheFox said too. But you know, I've had my ears pierced for 30+ years and I've only ripped one once. It hurt but grew back. Remember when HUGE MOMBO size hoops were in style? Oh, you probably don't. But they used to be. Combing your hair was a dangerous task. :o

oh man... I am definitely into piercings and such, but that would worry me. Just like Laurend said... I'd get it caught on something. Nipple rings + seatbelts = bad!

There's also a chance that it could reject, and you could end up with a yucky scar.

OMG, that would definitely be my luck, if I ever got it. I have REALLY bad luck with getting cysts and abcesses, so I know that would probably be guaranteed to happen.

I've even thought about getting my nipples pierced (once I get nice boobs, that is) and I've even thought about getting other piercings (lower down), but I just can't get the thought that they might get yanked out out of my head. Literally makes me squeeze my arms and legs together. Yowch.

I'd been thinking about a nipple piercing... I hadn't even thought of seatbelts!!

I've got time though. I'm certainly not getting a nipple pierced until my boobs are in the right place!

I wouldn't get it unless it is pure titanium. Then there is virtually no chance of rejection.

I've never cared for piercings or tattoo (except for pierced ears) but this is different. Not sure why I like it so much.

I have had just about everything pierced that can be pierced at some point..

I still have some of my secret ones.. but this one actually kind of grosses me out, how odd is that?

If you unscrew the gem, the anchor is just.. in your body and you pull it out? All my piercings are in one hole and out another so I know where it is, I guess the anchor is throwing me off. Makes me think of a splinter..

I like how it looks, but makes my skin crawl to think about having it in!

Yep, the anchor has a thing that sticks up like a post on an earring and only the part that sticks up shows. The anchor is under the skin. It's tiny. You screw on whichever stone you want and go on with your day.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
