Body Jewelry – What makes it good?

First, we need to look at who says what it is. The first thing most people see is 316, this simply means low carbon. But, where does that number come from? The people who developed the standards were welders and the measurements were more concerned with how the metal welds and how little it rusts. Stainless Steel differs from carbon steel in that it will not rust when exposed to moisture. more »

I had it pierced on Halloween and wore a septum retainer in it. I kept it flipped up so my mom wouldn”t see it, (I remembered seeing her chase my brother around trying to rip out his eyebrow ring).\r\n\r\nOf course, after I decided to show her the piercing she tried to rip it out. It was pretty ridiculous looking back. But, she looked at it and said it was infected. more »
