@Sammee Plastic surgery is required. I don't know about the lady with the snake, but Dd's earlobes look almost normal. Her doctor did a great job, but did require sculpting. Wonder what drugs the lady in this article was doing??? I would have had to been hooched up on something to have a snake that close to my face. LOL
That sounds well worth her $800. At least women can cover up scars with earrings. Was she having trouble getting hired because of her ears, or did she just get over the fad?
@Sammee No extreme visible piercing or tats. Yes, she outgrew the fad and really regretted not be able to wear reg. earrings. She has a lil nose piercing, but has to wear nude skin tone L or bone.
What a weirdo. I've had my ears gauged for 13 years and not once have I thought what a great idea it would be to put a snake in them. I feel bad for the snake. Gauged ears smell like rotting cheese and butt, so I imagine the snake smelled like that for a while, too.
@ladybeachbum I wondered why she didn't use oil. I would have exhausted all measures before resorting to the ER. I wonder if she will be the one paying that bill.
Buildup of oil, sweat, and dead cells. The bigger the hole, the more buildup, and the stronger the stench. If there is no smell, usually there is an infection.
