Faux Snug Piercing

Faux Snug Piercing

Traditional Snug piercings are very anatomy depending and finding the correct anatomy is rare. They also have a long recovery time, and swells up a lot during healing!! Because of the tricky recovery period, a “Faux Snug Piercing” can be considered instead.

Conch Piercing + Helix Piercing

“Faux Snug Piercing” is great alternative to the conventional Snug. It is basically two separate piercings: a conch piercing positioned parallel with an outer helix piercing, to give the illusion of a regular Snug, but without the troubles of massive swelling and anatomy dependancy.

Both piercings can also be styled differently to give this piercing a lot more versatility with jewelry than a conventional Snug (which can only wear a curved barbell).

Faux Snug Piercing allows more flexibility with anatomy and jewelry

A true snug piercing is very hard to heal, but a faux snug is all the look with none of the discomfort- which is exactly what we went with here! A conch and a helix placed in such a way to give the effect of a high angled snug piercing. Also, peep those angles! I believe piercing is like math- you gotta show your work. Always look for good, consistent angle shots! #piercings #piercing #piercer #legitbodyjewelry #legitjewelry #neometal #safepiercing #appmember #conchpiercing #helixpiercing #fauxsnug #snugpiercing

Remember when I used to pierce people 😍 . . . I know she looks like a snug but she a FAKE! A faux snug is spectacular, it has all the charm of a snug without the healing complications that can sometimes go with it or for those who’s anatomy isn’t suitable for a traditional Snug piercing. Either way, being fake in this instance is a winner. 🖤 . #piercedbygina #piercingbygina #piercing #piercings #pierceme #snugpiercing #fauxsnug #fauxsnugpiercing #earpiercing #ontario #toronto #leaside #piercingideas #piercinginspiration

I only performed the conch piercings on both ears. None of the other piercings were performed by me. They were performed elsewhere. I did also remove the barbell from the industrial set up and replaced them with two labret post and some nopull.piercing discs. I forgot to snap some photos of that though. One conch was pulled from the fishbowl and then she paid full price for the second. All components of the conch piercings are astmf136 titanium and internally threaded 14g labret posts from qualitibodyjewellery . They created some nice faux snug piercings! #fauxsnug #conchpiercing #earpiercing #piercing #piercings #fortworthpiercing #dallaspiercing #dfwpiercing #texaspiercing #astmf136 #titaniumbodyjewelry #titanium #ti #boneheadpiercer #boneheadtattoo #love #piercermike #piercinglove #legitbodypiercings #legitbodyjewelry #piercingsofinstagram #piercingsofinsta #instapiercing #instagood #thatsthepointllc #thatsthepointneedles

Here's a cool set of piercings done by #elisethepiercer ☺️ we went with a "faux snug" placement with a conch and helix. Traditional snug piercings can be a tricky heal for some clients, especially when their anatomy isn't ideal for one. This placement offers a solution for those folks while still offering that unique aesthetic ✨ . . We love to help our clients find the perfect piercings for their individual anatomy!

Two ladies came in yesterday asking me to look at their ears and pick piercings I felt were sutible for their ears. Here is what I came up with... *first ear is a lower snug/anti tragus piercing. I say both because she had a divit right in between both parts of the ear that was perfect for a piercing, and a "conch piercing" that will turn into a #fauxsnug at a later date. I used a 16g. Internally threaded curved barbell. With a 3mm ball on the outside and 2.5mm on the inside of the anti/snug piercing. For the conch I used a 16g. Internally threaded micro post; and all from metalmafiabodyjewelry and cleaned with neilmedpiercingaftercare (Second lady's ear will be posted soon, when I get a break.) #antisnugpiercing #snugpiercing #antitraguspiercing #earpiercing #earpiercingproject #earprojet #bodypiercing #piercing #piercings #fortworthpiercing #dfwpiercing #texaspiercing #pierced #piercingsofinstagram #internallythreaded #micropost #metalmafialove #metalmafia #metalmafiabodyjewelry #neilmedpiercingaftercare #neilmed #boneheadpiercer #boneheadtattoo #love #piercermike #piercinglove
