Price is per piercing and includes an IMPLANT GRADE SURGICAL STEEL PIERCING. Upgraded jewelry options in IMPLANT GRADE TITANIUM AND 14K PURE GOLD are available for an additional price. Please DO NOT bring your own jewelry in for piercing as I do not know what kind of materials they are made of and will not use your jewelry for an initial piercing. Once you are healed and would like me to change out your jewelry, I will gladly do so for a small fee of $20.

frequently asked questions
Do Ear Piercings Hurt?
Pain from ear piercings are generally minimal. You may feel slight discomfort whilst the procedure is occurring. The least painful piercings are in the ear lobe, while piercings in the cartilage may be a little more painful due to the thickness of the ear. Overall, the amount a piercing hurts will depend on your pain tolerance.
Can I Get Multiple Piercings?
Yes, you may book up to three piercings per ear during your piercing session. I don’t like to do more than this per ear so that your ears do not go through too much trauma and can properly heal.
is jewelry included?
Yes, your choice of IMPLANT GRADE STAINLESS STEAL is included in the price of your piercing. Upgraded jewelry is available for an additional price.
how old do I need to be?
You must be at least 10 years old to receive an ear piercing. If you are under 18 years old, you MUST be accompanied by your legal guardian.
why hollow needle?
Hollow piercing needles are single-use, sterilized, razor-sharp, and will make a clean cut as they pass through both soft and cartilage tissue. This creates an environment that is less traumatic, more comfortable, and easier for the body to heal. The trauma caused by the piercing gun is much greater than a professional piercing needle with a higher risk for infection, keloid and longer healing time.
what kind of metal can i get pierced with?
IMPLANT GRADE STAINLESS STEEL, IMPLANT GRADE TITANIUM OR 14K PURE GOLD are the only metals that you can get pierced with safely. Sterling silver, 14k gold fill, vermeil and other metals are NOT appropriate for initial piercings, however you may change your jewelry out to these once healed.
