This stack comes with 3 discs - each with different threads & levels of ‘pull’.
Each design provides a different popping & extraction experience. Can use fingers, nails or tweezers.
Disc 1 & 2 : Both have the same larger natural stone embedded in the discs. Great for picking, popping or digging out.
Disc 3 : Smaller painted natural stones. They are a little harder to extract, creating opportunity for more popping, digging and increased effort.
Each of the silicone discs contain items with purpose in mind. In addition to being pure JOY for many, there is a more serious side to this genuine sensory seeking behaviour. Picking skin & hair pulling can be a form of stimming sometimes referred to as body-focused repetitive behaviour & super common, especially for those, like me, that are neurodivergent. It can be a sensory self-regulation behaviour, stim or part of repetitive ‘loop’. It can lead to compromised skin, bald patches, risk of infection, scars, shame and distress. It can also be a challenge to stop, even when harmful. Which is why we have a focus on having a range of tools to assist in supporting this sensory need.
Likely not to suit those that struggle with imperfection or sensory issues with holes, as once removed the stones leave holes. Trypophobia is an aversion or repulsion to objects like honeycombs and sponges that have repetitive patterns or clusters of small holes.
We have a Pick 'Em Starter Set & also a Thread Pick 'Em Stack sold separately.
