The Complete Guide to Body Piercing!

A Head-to-Toe Body Piercing Guide: Prep, Aftercare, Pain, More.

We’ve all seen the teen films where a girl pierces her friend’s ear using nothing but a block of ice and a sewing needle, but when it comes to piercing your body, a professional is best.

When choosing a piercing professional, it’s important to choose a trusted and clean establishment where you can rest assured that you’re in the best hands possible.

If you’re planning to get your ears pierced, you’ll find many kiosks in malls or jewellery stores that offer the service. Having your ear lobes pierced by these stores can be slightly risky as they use piercing guns instead of needles. While piercing guns can get the job done, they have been known to cause tissue damage which takes longer to heal. In addition, they are not always as sterile as the needle option as they cannot be properly sterilised in an autoclave and may house bacteria that can cause infections.
