A hickey is a bruise created by a vacuum over the skin. The vacuum draws blood out of the vessels and very near the surface of the skin.

Hickies? Intriguing query :) Well... It can also be very fulfilling alongside the neck field. But it is the equal as take your arm and sucking at the epidermis. A purple field indicates up, that's wherein all of the blood gathers from wherein you suctioned it. Do it extra harshly and it will be there for a even as, darker too.

Love-bites or hickeys are a temporary mark or bruise on ones skin resulting from kissing or sucking (not necessarily biting) forcefully enough to burst blood vessels beneath the skin. They could also be called "love-marks","passion marks" or "slag tags", since actual biting is usually not involved, but this usage is not widespread.
They can sometimes be 'lip' shaped. People who do not bruise easily can find them quite painful due to the amount of pressure applied to get the desired result.
Love bites last, depending on the person, from 4-5 days.

A hickey is a bruise caused by someone sucking on your skin for more then 30 seconds. It shocks the blood vessels and makes the spot turn red. It is popular in high school but its not good for your skin or your blood flow.

Hickies are bruises caused by someone else sucking very hard or repeatedly on any part of your body. And bruises are caused by blood veins bursting under the skin and bleeding out and damaging surrounding tissue....Hickies are VERY gross and embarrassing. People you see walking around with that kind of crap on them are usually just desperate to get any kind of attention they can and show off something that nobody, but them, cares about.

I have no idea how old you are, but Hickeys are when someone sucks on someone elses body in conclusion leaving a bruise on thier body. They are mainly left on peoples neck. When you see someone with a big black bruise on thier neck, its a hicky, and they might make a joke saying they got in a fight with their vaccume cleaner, then you can nickname them hoover! Hope that helped. Good luck!

Fact... hickey is a discoloring of the skin caused by sucking. It draws blood out of the capillaries to the surface. Basically, a bruise. Hope that helps.

its when someone like instead of kissing you can either bite you a bit harder or suck your skin real hard. what it does is brings blood closer to the surface which can then make it look like a big bug bite, bruise
hickies suck if they are on your neck because you can't really hide them ;)
