***** I have troubles with people to on here sometimes. I just ignore them. Have a good day.
Awesome video this week! I love the jewelry videos, or really any of the ones that go into the what to do and what not to do idea. Shirt looks dapper this week. Can't wait to come get pierced in January :)
J.C. you said to comment on your shirt, so I am commenting on your shirt, no but seriously that opened my eyes. Thank you for making these videos
really appreciate all your honesty and sharing of knowledge!!
I have learned a lot about what jewelry I do want and don't want and how to find it thank you you are a life saver!!!!
Thank you! Every friday i check for new updates! Love your videos they help a ton!
im about to start stretching my ears, and i'm seriously so glad that someone linked me to this youtube from reddit. I'm definitely going to live by this channel because i am constantly getting new piercings.
This is probably my favorite video. When I was a kid I got my ears pierced and had a lot of trouble with finding jewelry that didn't irritate my ears. For the longest time, I thought I was allergic to everything except precious metals. I know now that I probably wasn't allergic, but that the cheap jewelry was most likely irritating my sensitive ears. Educating people on the quality of the jewelry they buy is so important, and I wish more stores cared enough to sell good quality jewelry.
just watched both good v bad jewelry part 1 and 2 good knowledge to have thanks 👌
Thanks for letting me know that cedar is not a good wood to put into the body, you saved my ears!
For those asking about pvd coating safety in initial piercings. It is similar to a ceramic coating. The kind IS uses is similar to pvd coating used in the medical world. There are numerous studies and even standards for PVD coating. The main concern is that if altered (bent from its original shape) or if somehow scratched/cracked, problems can occur.
Love the videos. Very informative. Thank you J.J.
I'm planning on getting my first piercing(septum) here soon and your videos have been very helpful. Thanks
Did you get it? Still have it?
great show ! was thinking of getting some black jewellery glad i have a idea of whats good for my body now !
I just did one on stone body jewelry, but the focus of this video was threaded bars and rings. You can totally get black glass 18 gauge nostril pieces, but no one makes 18 gauge jet, obsidian, onyx, or hematite.
Always nice to see nice video from you !!!!!
Seriously I was sad when it ended :( I could listen to you talk all day!
These videos saved me a lot of money and pain I have to say. My first helix and tragus piercings were done in an unqualified shop with externally threaded jewelry made from god knows what. After watching your videos I've found an APP certified piercer and couldn't be happier with the work and there is a difference. Don't ask about price because it's not as important as keeping your body safe. Thanks JC!
your vids are so awesome...like your shows. you keep it really professional
this was very insightful thanks J.C now i know what to look for and what to avoid
FINALLY!!!! I've been waiting so long for this =D
I can't believe it took me this long to find this channel lovin this videos
Btw that shirt A++
Dude, I just subscribed and I have been watching all your videos while I'm supposed to be working. I wanna get into doing piercings, but school is kinda cutting into an apprenticeship. Anyways, great knowledge and I dig your style. Keep em coming.
This helped me a WHOLE LOT!!!!
The absolute most informative video about Black jewelry!!!! I definitely know what to look for exactly now!!
Cheers from LONG ISLAND B-)
I loved both videos of the Good vs. Bad Jewelry. I learned a lot that I didn't know (I'm thinking about training and doing an apprenticeship in the far future-need to learn so much more first) and now I understand why I got so many infections with my piercings. Now I know what to look for. Btw, awesome outfit
always look forward to these videos :) keep up the good work
Great videos. Really entertaining, professional and coooooooool!
I always forget to watch your videos. I'm so glad that Shannon shares them on facebook :D thanks :D :D
I watch all your videos as part of my apprenticeship. Good info thanks so much. Shared it too. Thanks
Love your vids! Very informative.
Hell yes! Thank you for doing a video on the "black metals". I personally sport Industrial Strength black coated titanium threaded ends and black eyelets....I also own several niobium pieces from I.S. My clients are always interested in black jewelry and I find myself constantly explaining the difference between the good stuff and the garbage. This video is going up on our page immediately lol....
Do you guys have like an online store that people can buy from. I live in Cali and id love to buy jewelry from you
Anne Kaylor I do- I'm currently reworking it to make it a better experience for everyone, but I only sell the good stuff ;)
Awesome!! Ill definitely have to check it out!
thanks for answering a couple questions I had on black jewelry. once again great vid. rockin vest bro
It's a labour of love, and we love you for it!
I have purple, blue and matte black niobium BCRs. Lots of them!. Wildcat produce lots of colours. (The bead or ball is haematite)
NeoMetal made experimental pieces in Nb alloy for me, which I heat treated black. They were lovely, and I hope that they revisit the idea.
as usual Thanks J.C. really helps with the knowledge for when I go seeking out an apprenticeship (:
Thanks for this update seeing as i only wear black jewelry, been following this channel for awhile now keep up the good informative work =D!
I was very entertained...and your shirt is awsome.
Thank you so much, I've watched about 5 of your videos so far and they are Super helpful and informative. When i started stretching my ears it was really difficult to find good information. People would say what not to use, but not why, and then others would say the materials are just fine. I especially liked the plastics video and good jewelry Vs. bad jewelry part 1. I have 00g ears and am stretching to 9/16 using stainless steel eyelets and bondage tape. :) thanks
This is REALLY helpful, thank you
Loving the shirt
IIRC you were one of the ones who suggested it
Lovin the fancy outfits lately, jc! You look sharp and classy. I think you need a schmany updo to match :P
Old episode I'm very late, new subscriber, love the info I'm getting it's super helpful, and I love you shirt
*your
I know this mainly focuses on threaded black jewelry, but Kaos Softwear black silicone is also a black body jewelry option. I know silicone is iffy because it's supposed to be worn in well-healed piercings and some people have reactions to it/stretch improperly with it even though Kaos has a warning to never stretch with it. But, earskins are a great option and I personally wear one in my healed 4g stretched septum without complications. :)
Niobium for the win!!! I remember back in the day certain low level jewelry suppliers pushed lead crystal glued in gems in rhodium plated jewelry. So I was a bit surprised to see some reputable companies going the rhodium route. Glad you keep it real and we both know our friends/jewelry suppliers accept and appreciate your honesty.
Im curious since you cant thread niobium well. Perhaps NeoMetal could dive into doing niobium threadless designs? It would eliminate the threading issues.. right? ;)
Fantastic video! Definitely will keep all of this stuff in mind if I'm ever looking for something black.
One nitpicking note, though: it was mentioned that PVD stands for "physical vapor disposition".
Hate to be nitpicky, but it stands for "physical vapor DEposition" (think the act or process version of "depositing"). Just a note for future improvement :)
Thanks for such fantastic videos, and keep up the good work!
Yes i Love your shirt, and you do a really good job, I got my tragus on Saturday because i saw the proper way to do it and saw how you did it and compared. I would say you did a better job but she was alright :P
Niobium is definitely one of my favorites, mainly because I'm allergic to stainless steel. It's always come in really pretty other colors too.
Thank you for that JC! Nice to hear your Advice about this! Shared to all my friends!
And yes Like the shirt ;)
I’m so upset that I’m just now discovering him I love this channel
Great info. I am going to look for some niobium.
Check out Scylla
Great info! Watched this video like a week ago which inspired me to buy two black niobium lip rings, which I just received in the mail today. Currently wearing them right now ^_^
Educational as always. Also, your shirt is very handsome. :)
I went to Obscurities in Dallas, TX. They had no jewelry under $100. But it all looked well worth it.
🤩🤩🤩🤩 I'm really glad you made this video. Will definitely no longer be using sterling silver.
great informative video
Perfect information and terminology. Where did you receive your education?
Thank you so much! I tend to only wear black jewelry, this helps so much.
Another amazing informative video... Someday I will have the technology to tap into Pott's brain and absorb all his knowledge BWWAAA!!!!!!
Awesome shirt this very useful knowledge 😎
always looking classy
I would hope so, but I'd never risk it
Hi J.C! I have a question, where did you study to be a piercer? I think that you're just awesome :)
Another amazing video.
Looking pimp as always.
Have been thinking it would maybe be a good idea for a video showing the different types of oils and creams and such that seem to be marketed towards the pierced and if they're any use or just a way to make cash selling sh*t.
For example jojoba, emu oil, holey buttr etc.
Just an idea though.
That was a cool vid. Your like the Heavy Metal Mr. Wizard.
Ah black niobium, it looks so cool. That's the one metal I trust the most. How much niobium jewelry do you have? I've only got one pair and I'm interested in getting some more.
Awesome shirt
So I told my my mom (a former piercer from 20+ yrs ago) that I was getting some anodized stainless steel from Urban Body Jewelry cause I had read a helpful article by them about gauging. I'm at a 14 wanting to go up to a 12. So I get really excited about gauging up and start searching for anodized titanium but I'm a poor broke college student so 40$ for just a single horshoe of internally threaded 12g 1/2" length was making me want to faint. And I was pointed to all the good place and I was like they seem quality but I can't afford quality x.x and so I purchased a cute little anodized steel externally threaded (I didn't like them because frikkin always falling off and the birds I sometimes visit pulled off so many balls that got lost forever) but then my mom responds with links to three of your videos. Holy crap I never knew. Why did I not know that surgical steel is a lie? Or that stainless can be that bad? Why did it not occur to me to check for groves that bacteria can get caught in? Like I was thinking "just buy a cheap pair and get the 80$ ones later when you can afford it and then go for the pretty 88$/horseshoe when you're rich and famous." But this video really opened my eyes and now I will be extra careful what metals I'm putting into my body and the quality of the craftsmanship. No more stepping stones, just go for the good s***.
Edit: btw, I love your shirt. 2nd edit: *vest shirt combo xD
Do you have a video on rejected and/or infected piercings?
More Awesomeness. LOVE IT!
Yeah boi ... first comment...... love your show always full of excellent nfo
This video and part one make me wamma go out and replace all my pieces with something from one of those sites. Only the best for my body.
I love you and your shirt.
It would be awesome if you could do a video about scarification and scarification aftercare for optimum scarring if that's the sort of things you deal with
i learn something new ever week and i am a pro piercer and nice shirt by the way!LOL
Also: That niobium circular barbell with the little bullet ends at 4:10? Is that Anatometal? I have a triangle piercing that I wear a basic steel circular barbell in and I would looooove to get a new piece for it, and that looks right up my alley!
Thank you!
My eyebrow piercings keep getting infected had them for 1yr and a half should I try titanium. The piercings I have now are the original piercings from the shop
yes, it is- black niobium with hematite bullets from Anatometal. I used to wear the exact same thing in my nipples before I stared wearing all gold.
After watching this... I developed quite the fondness for niobium captives, acquiring hardware from the companies you've mentioned. Are there any other brands you know of, possibly since this video's creation that makes great black niobium captives?
after binge watching your vids, you need to make a "god knows what" material video c,:!
I noticed that apart from the niobium gear, none of the wearing surfaces were black on the jewellery from industrial strength. is that because the pvd coating is unsafe to have inside the body? I'm beginning to get suspect of the blackline pieces i have in my ear
My goodness, I'd kill for an apprenticeship under this man.
Very helpful video, friend! Thanks for your time. Just curious, does the body's tendency to reject certain piercings have anything (or everything) to do with the quality of jewelry?
Having just had someone show me the scars from their hip piecing that rejected twice. I saw it was done both times with a straight barbell. I told them they need a surface bar and they said if it cost more than $30 they would go back to the original shop.
Good to know
love it
Imagine being his apprentice it would be amazing and so informative good lord
Haha I dig that vest J.C. :D very informative video
Having a lot of trouble getting black jewelry where I live in Sweden these days. The, very well renowned, Federal (love you guys) has stocked good shit before, but the demand seems lower than, say 5-10 years ago when I first started. Now it seems I'll have to custom order a lot of stuff, and few companies makes that easy.
(4.0x19mm black CBR or segment rings, where are you?)
I love it when you dress up JC :D
obrigado-me enviar fotos para que eu possa ver o que você se parece
Hey,
So I started doing research about getting my daith pierced. I'd like a "captive bead ring."(I so smart. Thanks for the lessons.) I really like the anodized colors. When I go on pangea's website I can't get a price for exactly what I want. We live in KC, MO area, so hopping up to your store isn't really possible. Any tips? If I go and get it done and bring the sealed package I get in the mail from a reputable jewelry maker, are they going to look at my cross eyed and charge me way more for wanting high quality jewelry. A new, piercing only shop opened downtown and since you said that's the best way to go, in another video, I sough one out. Thanks for anything you can provide! New but BIG FAN... stay kooky ;0)
Do you know what black line jewelry is? I bought a septum retainer that was that material/ brands, but to be honest I have no idea what it is.... I've been wearing it for a while though and my septum is fine. I would just like to know what it is that's in there :) love the videos btw keep them coming!
don't forget about horn and ebony. I did not know before watching this that there were so many black metallic options.
So, is it ok to do initial piercings with black jewelry or should you stick with uncoated/untreated to start and change after healed?
