Nothing Sissy About Earrings

• Wednesday February 22, 2006 in: Body Art Tag(s):

  In the movie "Hook" an English sounding Dustin Hoffman is shown parting the hair away from an ear of a boy as he tries to perform an ear piercing on him.

  Hoffman in the character of the pirate nemesis of Peter Pan tells the boy, who happens to be the son of an older Pan played by Robin Williams, "now laddie, just lie your head like so and don't move. 'Cause this is really going to hurt."

  And so it had been hurting for a lot of kids-not necessarily boys-ever since they decided to wear their first earring. But wearing their first earring didn't always come easy.

  Those guys (read: men and women) with a distaste for blood may find themselves fainting at the sight of their own-yeah even guys do that despite undergoing the more gruesome rite of circumcision.

  In that respect wearing an earring for the first time is like circumcision for the boys: one gets to bleed a little, scream like a girl a little but the pain passes away and the guy is smiling as his friends and even girls notice him.

  As if anyone hadn't noticed by now ears are the easiest body part for piercing since well over a thousand years ago. One only has to pay a visit to a local museum to see Egyptian royalty wearing all sorts of ear jewelry.

  Thanks to advances in technology now there are now many types of ear-piercing instruments used such as an ear-piercing gun.

  However there had been some controversy over its potential health risks in part due to the question of sterilization.

  Teens are of course the more vulnerable lot when it comes to possible infection from ear piercing.

  Thus professional body piercing artists take at least two weeks of training for ear piercing guns and three years in the use of the needle to avoid any possible health dangers that it can inflict.

  Still think ear piercing's that easy? It's not for sissy people that's for sure.

Gun vs Needle
Ear peircing guns are not only, not sterile but are just plain poor quality. The jewelry the guns use is self-piercing studs made of industrial quality surgical steel. Industrial quality meaning the steel is manufactured for industrial use. Yea and people are putting it into their bodies. Would you drink Radiator coolant instead of water? Why not drink radiator fluid if you're going to put industrial steel into your body. The self-piercing needle has a blunt edge and when pushed through mutilates all the cells that it comes in contact with. A needle makes a nice smooth cut through your body thus allowing for a nice smooth healed hole. Why is this important? Because Bacteria loves to find little crevasses to grow in. Finally most of the ear piercings that I see are crooked. People that don’t know how to make a straight hole usually operate ear-piercing guns. For questions see me at http://tommytbodypiercing.com/

replicawatches
Base on the development of peoples living standard, people are in pursuit of modern life. However, with the popularity of the wrist replica watches, more and more consumers are eager for a high-quality and inexpensive wrist designer watches. But where can we purchase a good one? That is the point I am going to talk about. Firstly, I strongly recommend customers to visit Hong Kong in order to look for their favorite wrist swiss watches. As we all know, although Hong Kong is not so big, it has hundreds of wrist replica Louis Vuitton shops which sell the high-quality wrist Patek Philippe for sale. The most important thing is, in Hong Kong, shopping discount has become the appointed action for customers visiting Hong Kong. As a result, customers can find all kinds of brand wrist Tudor for sale from high-class to mid-high-class then the cheapest ones. For example, customers can go to Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Wan Chai, Jordan and so on. Secondly, if we want to buy the foreign countrys famous brand BlancPain replica like Swiss wrist replica ebel and at the same time we have some friends or relatives live in these countries and perhaps they will travel or do business there, we can entrust them to purchase for us. Therefore, we can definitely get the high-quality BlancPain watches. Otherwise, as the country of origin, the price must be lower than in China. Thirdly, as far as I am concerned, it is also a good idea to find a cheaper wrist replica oris on Taobao website. Maybe not a few people will think the quality of the goods on Taobao website is not that high. But there is Tudor replica no denying that depends on the lower price, the quality of the goods is satisfied. As long as we can distinguish the credit and Concord replica reputation of these online shops, we can also purchase the quality products.
