The dark (read dirty) side of cheap collars.
Added 2024-01-31 19:21:16 +0000 UTCHeyya, just wanted to film this little video to show how the cheaper collars (like this cheap SM collar rip off ) can cause quite the mess, especially when worn long term. Cheap metals and close skin contact down go together well.
Does anyone here has had experience with SM collars? Has anything like this ever happened to you?
I have some really good news coming your way soon and hopefully I can treat myself and you all with some really good quality collars!! Just working on sorting out the last few formalities in the background!! :)

2024-02-13 17:00:09 +0000 UTCYes thanks do the costs of the rings get expensive into the thousands ? Do they need to be worn all the time to see results ?

2024-02-13 16:42:24 +0000 UTCGood and quality collars can be quite pricey. But it's worth the extra cost otherwise you can end up with a green neck like me in this video.

2024-02-13 12:28:41 +0000 UTCCollars can be custom made, but it's not always needed. Check out eternity Collars web page - https://www.eternitycollars.com/?bg_ref=EUvjoTpCJM and they also have a video tutorial how to measure your neck and how to choose the right sizing for yourself.

2024-02-12 10:44:01 +0000 UTCBecause this is a cheap rip off version of a collar unfortunately, so they don't care about the quality or the longevity of the product. That's the difference between good and bad brands. In a way I'm happy to be the experimental bonny with these cheper brands, to show you all the difference and why it's worth paying extra for a good product :)

2024-02-01 13:42:23 +0000 UTCI also can't understand why they save on material with a collar like this and a brass lock doesn't work at all, everyone knows that brass forms verdigris on the skin :-(

2024-02-01 13:31:41 +0000 UTCNot sure neither if it can be exchanged...you would need some relevant skills and tools for that I believe....and I would suggest to go for the 50 mm Swedish collar in stainless steel....:)

2024-02-01 11:59:31 +0000 UTCOh thank you ๐ and yes, the rash isn't a pleasant thing, it's still healing but it's sooo itchy ๐ซ but it's definitely from the moisture that's been trapped underneath.

2024-02-01 11:37:14 +0000 UTCSome future seeing wizard you are my friend? ๐คญ Fingers crossed I'll have a real SM factory collar soon ๐ฅฐ
Marta Klinta
2024-02-01 11:35:01 +0000 UTCHmm... need to see whether the lock can be exchanged to another one. And I would definitely choose a real SM collar or even a Swedish collar over this one, but at the time I did really have the money for the expensive brands. Hopefully soon I can upgrade!

2024-02-01 11:33:23 +0000 UTCI did know someone wearing a SM collar - but not on a day to day basis - and it was as well a different one. But would fully agree that this is coming from the mix of the metals from the lock....maybe there is a chance to exchange the lock....there are lock on the market (like from Abus) which are made without Cooper..as far as I know. Or maybe the Swedish collars would be an alternative.....

2024-02-01 11:12:31 +0000 UTCAnd i have a strong feeling you will own a sm-factory collar not that far in the future!

2024-01-31 21:12:42 +0000 UTCCute video again - well, as always! Green color - cobber from the brass mix?? I has a sm factory collar but cant wear it - girl size. But i known 2 girls who has used them for long periodes - Ping from Sweden and nGila (her fetlife "name") and they never talked about dicoloring. nGila did get a rash but probably more from the moist invionment. And those top neck rings are snug - look fantastic!!!
