It's some sort of ring they put around it.
it's the same idea as the "tie off" method to a blowout or HT scarring.

The ring goes on, and Im assuming you tie it off or move it in some way a little tighter everyday.
A girl in our class had it done to her son. she said in 2 weeks it just fell off.
Your basically just killing the skin and depriving it from oxygen.

To my knowing, most insurances will cover it, as it's probably way more inexpensive than paying a doctor to preform the surgery.


Is that by conventional logic or knowing people in the insurance industry?

I have no trust for those types of businesses these days.

And I can't exactly see that method going terribly well. I mean, obviously I'd have to see many cases with it to make a proper judgment, but hasn't the body modification community kind of come to consensus that tying off isn't a great way to do it?
Problems I could see are tissue death being uneven, mothers not being properly trained to use it or having it placed wrong, and extreme discomfort, even pain, from the pressure. The foreskin has a lot of nerves.

is my assumption on the insurance thing.

And really, I know as much about it as you do, not much. I've never seen it done, I've only heard that "yes, this does exist as an alternative"

Im not really concerned with looking into it at all ATM, considering I don;t have a child, and don't plan to have one anytime soon.

I have $4.98 in my bank account until Tuesday night.... fml

Used to do that on sheep and puppies and stuff all the time.
Their tails just fall off, I assume its much the same theory?
They didn't complain at all, complained much more about the fact you had to hold them still, didn't seem to notice the rubber ring.
There were a few odd ones, that were still attached a bit. (but we just cut those off, and a bit of quikstop, ta-dah!)
Sheep and working dogs need their tails off though.
Humans foreskins, I'd see as kinda useful.
What if they want it later?
i would never do a piercing by myself someone did that at school and it got infected it looked gross.

Im so pissed right now.

My computer Blue screened on Friday, so I went out and bought a new hard drive, yadda yadda...

Re-instealled windows.. whatever..
i put my old drive in as a secondary drive so I could get my s**t back...

Nothing is there.

my whole music library is GONE. gonk

...
So im re-downloading everything.. LOL

I feel ya.

@random girl

that person probably used a dirty crusty shitty $2.50 piece of jewelery, a sewing needle, and their bare hands

as of now, my DIY piercings are my calmest, most drama free piercings

LOL FUNNY HOW THAT WORKS HUH

Ok, Im going to change the subject a little here..
I posted this in the stretched thread,

But really.. since when are people coming up that you call Stretched earlobes "Stretches"?

Iv'e never heard that term used before, ever.. so where did it come from..
Mindy brought up a good point with it that if you just call whatever you are referring to as "stretches" you won;t be able to distinguish what piercing you are talking about
(Something like that, right Mindy? )

i think that's a UK thing

h, well, I think it's kinda retarded.
No offense to anybody, but yeah.

I have a 12 Gauge VCH and some 0 Gauge lobes, among other stretched piercings.

"I have larger than normal jewelry in my stretches"
So which one am i talking about?....
