Worked with Paradise Cages to order a new PA stem for my cage from them. Much like Cinderella and her glass slipper, I think thisnone fits just right lol. Raised the location of the stem so that its more centered, and couldn't be happier with the results. Going to give it a couple more weeks, then I think its time for the full titanium order 😁
Love the feel of my cage from Paradise Cages. 12/10 customer service, and I highly reccomend doing the consultation.
So, for context, I am roughly 7 months post PA piercing. I started at an 8 gauge, and after 12 weeks sized up to a 6 gauge. Ive been at a 6 gauge for about 16 weeks, and bought a BAWR test cage to play around with. Ive tried it twice now, with the same result, after about 24 hours I have some discomfort and swelling, and when I take it off, some light bleeding from the piercing. The cage itself needs some tweaks before I order a fully custom one, but I'm hypothesizing the issue I am having is more due to the piercing not being 110% healed, rather than the cage not being a perfect fit. As another point of reference, I have been able to wear my Mature metal cage with a captive bead ring without much issue. Any guidance would be appreciated.
