    i got mine done about two months ago, i really really like it. in the two months that ive had it ive only seen a few other people that also have it done, its not very common which is why i originally got it done.
    just wonderin if anyone else here has it to!

    I have my left inner conch at 4mm. I had it pierced at 1mm and stretched it to that size over the course of 4 months. Its been 2 years now since I've had it done.

    ive had a hoop since day one, and the only problem ive found is that its easier for people to hit it if you have a hoop, and its a little harder to sleep with a hoop in. and it can get caught on brushes/combs easier. thats about it, i like the way they look better than studs

    I had a stud when I first pieced mine, then I changed it to a hoop. Now I just wear a plug most of the time.

    i had single flares after getting it pierced.. after a while got annoyed with losing o-rings and have had 4mm black acrylic captive rings since then.. they can be a bit annoying to sleep on..

    from the general consensus ive gather.. conchs can be quite a painful piercing. not for everyone of course but people ive known said it was considerably.. i got mine punched though.. quite different.. mine wasnt painful at all.. just an uncomfortable pressure for a second

    When I got mine pierced at first, I was trying to look for other people who had it too. When I saw that only one other person I knew had it, and that I didnt really see that many people with it, I actually started to really like it more and more.

    ive been using satin soap to clean mine, i have no idea how the hell to soak it in sea salt, its a very awkward place to have under water.

    thats what paper-towel like things are for. soak the seasalt-water into the towel then compress on piercing
