bleached to a LION :3

so. i bleached my hair.
in preparation for that red that i wanted.

first day, spent in school.
looks tolerable with those cat ears.

i feel like m'cosplaying though~ tsk.

hoping to go red soon.

ROAR~

and in time, i can again.

and i will.

pierced betrayal.

and so my sixth to eighth had betrayed me.

for more than 2 weeks, the swelling is lessened and redness has faded.
and then i fell asleep resting on my left for a night or two.

last wednesday, 3rd of april,

(photo1)

it started aching and swelling.

a lymph node at the back of my left ear.

by thursday , the 4th,

it was red and swelling bad.

and there were 2 lymph nodes already.

loosened the piercings a bit, but the sixth hurt like hell.

friday morning, i decided to check on it.

as i removed the 6th, i saw a gaping hole.

(photo2)

the piercing has burned through my skin.

reaction to my allergy to the cheap metal,

PLUS allergy to my own sweat

PLUS the heat.

removed the 6th, and checked the rest.

they looked fine and went on with my life.

by night, i checked on the 7th.

it has burned a hole too.

(photo3)

decided to remove it along with the eighth,

even though it looked fine.

fearing it would do the same, sooner or later.

saturday night, the 6th of april,

after swimming in the beach for the day,

i checked it.

(photo5)

glad to have seen a lot of recovery.

(even without taking antibiotics)

cleaned it up nice

(photo6)

and changed the dressing before going to sleep.

PS:

will still try to do it once everything has healed.

a minimum of 6months,

and this time, i won't settle for cheap stops.

and will take each pierce, ONE AT A TIME.

(with an interval of probably 3months each)
