Will I get keloids again if I've already had one once?

DEAR ALLEY: I have a suggestion for you: I got the "f***" earrings (I’ll tag it on my ‘gram) and I think they would make great cheater plugs. I’ve been a customer for a long time and I love your products!

And a question: I’ve always wanted an industrial in my ear. I had keloids which I had removed with steroid shots long long ago. If I get an industrial, will I still get keloids, because I need that pitchfork barbell! Thanks a bunch!

ALLEY: Hey Ellie,

Great question! I'm proud of you for practicing excellent aftercare... Your daith is going to thank you in the upcoming months for your high-quality attention to detail.

"Crusties," as we lovingly refer to them, are...

Do I need a 16g or 18g on my nose piercing?
DEAR ALLEY: I am 57 and just got my nose pierced. I love it! It was pierced with a 16 gauge needle.

It has healed and I want to buy a nose bone, do I get a 16 or 18 gauge? I am having a hard time finding 16 gauge in a bone.

- Jodi

ALLEY: Hi Jodi!

Congrats on your nose piercing! So glad you took the plunge at 57 - piercings know no age!

It's not uncommon for noses to be pierced at 16g, but it's definitely not the standard size... That's probably why...
