Q:purchasing body jewelry from Hot Topic is WRONG. I bought a set of 12g plugs from them and my earlobes swelled up and the plugs were stuck in my ears.Hot Topic does not or ever will have quality jewelry. Do NOT buy cheap Hot Topic jewelry EVER.

They do however, sell Kaos and the glass isn’t too bad (sometimes can get pretty wonky tho).

But yeah, I wouldn’t ever buy metal or acrylic from them unless I was planning to wear it through and eyelet or something. Especially with a nickel allergy… >.<
