You, a roll of wheed whacker in the same ga. of your jewelry and something like a lighter and a flat surface to warm then tamp down the end of it. youll have something that looks like a nail. you can clip the non-headed end to an angle to aid in insertion. -hth Moth

Yeah, this is really the best solution, the clear labret retainers most companies sell start at 14 gauge - which makes it hard to be inconspicuous with a big whoppin' see- through hole in your face. The weed whacker wire is much more subtle. ( I've also used mono filament fishing line, in case you can't find your whacker wire )

I've got something that could work. It's meant to be a tongue retainer, but it can be improvised. The design is a clear rod and a labret-type back on one end and an o-ring on the other. See http://redrival.com/nightwyng.metal2.html -Nightwyng
