Luxury and Jewelry

I've been looking on the net, and I can't seem to find any sites that offer a sent-by-mail catalog that sells body jewelry. I just got an industrial and it's been pretty much impossible to find many places that sell barbells and other body jewelry. I've found plenty of online catalogs, but I don't want to pay all that shipping and handling money, etc.

From personal experience I would say do NOT buy from a catalog or online for jewelry unless you have had personal success with the source. You can't check the quality of those as you can from a shop. I have an industrial bar too and ran into the same problem of the bars not being long enough. So I went back to my piercer and baught two 2" bars from there for either $10 or $20. I was assured the quality and I knew I could go back to them if I had a problem with it. The shop that did your industrial (I hope you went to a parlor not the mall) should have other lengths in stock. And wait about two or three months past getting it done at the earliest to try and change it, the angle can be hard to get right away and before then the holes tighten up a lot faster. I still have troubles some times if I try to put my bar in too fast and I'll miss the hole all together. So let it heal some more and ask your piercer about buying more jewelry. They might even be able to order some for you since they only buy the best.

The difference between internal and external threaded barbells modification

More Details at: www.tmart.com Product Description: This 60pcs Tongue Ring Barbell Body Jewelry is new and high quality. It is so pretty and a ...

I want to learn how to make body jewelry, like captive bead rings and barbells, but I dont know where to get started properly. I know of metals and sizes to use, but I want to do this from scratch without premade materials at all.

Take a jewerly making class:

Learn the basics, then 'tweak' them to fit your need. However, what is the benefit of making everything from scratch? Aside from a personal sense of accomplishment, wouldn't it be easier, safer, and more cost effective to purchase the basic rings and barbells, then embellish them from scratch?

I need the name of the piercing, and if possible, could you get me a picture of someone wearing a barbell? I can't find one.
Thank you.

I would like to learn how to modify standard body piercing jewelry (captive bead rings, barbells, etc.) so that the removable component (such as the captive or threaded bead) can no longer be removed, resulting in permanently-installed rings and barbells. The idea of permanent earrings is mentioned on Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ear_piercing#Permanent_earrings

There is a similar example of permanent piercings being used for chastity on the BME Encyclopedia:

http://wiki.bmezine.com/index.php/Permanent_Piercing

I would like to know if there are any manufacturers of non-removable piercing jewelry or what methods would be most effective in converting standard jewelry without negatively affecting the piercing or the look of the jewelry itself.

While other body modifications such as transdermal implants tend to be harder to remove than standard piercings, I would like to know of ways that body piercing modifications can be made to be as permanent as tattoos.
Part of my question about this is whether or not superglue would be suitable for this purpose. For example, would the dried glue be visible on the jewelry or cause irritation to the piercing if it came in contact with the skin? I have read a few similar discussions on Usenet and on Web forums dated several years ago where superglue was mentioned, but the idea was frowned upon by some users who felt that superglue would not be the best thing to use on body jewelry.

I would like to know why superglue would be appropriate or why not, and if another type of adhesive would work better.

you should ask your piercer. s/he should have all of the information you need about that..
and if not. they should be able to recomend you to someone

It is pierced with a 16g ring. I have no idea why, but they don't make special jewelry for tragus piercings...soo someone help me and let me know what kinda jewelry to use. I want it to have some sort of like diamond stud on it, so a small barbell or something, I just dont know what to use! thanks!

You could put just a regular diamod stud earring in it, don't put the back on though! I've had my tragus pierced for four years and I've always just worn regular earrings in it with no problem. You can buy small bars too, shop around.
