In the world of body piercings, there are many different types that people can get to express themselves, and they will also experience an increase in self-confidence. The possibilities are truly endless, with a variety of customisation ear-lobe piercings serving as both subtle and bold ways to personalise your look. Unfortunately, with so many options available, figuring out all the ins and outs of the world of piercings can feel a bit overwhelming. So in this article, you will find a detailed yet simple guide on the most common piecing ideas and jewellery, as well as some basics about the aftercare of your piercings.

Exploring Different Piercings:

  • Ear Piercings: The commonest of piercings, lobes are the only ones where the size or shape of jewellery invariably counts.
  • Bridge piercings: Bridge piercings are also attractive, while eyebrow piercings give you more edge.

Finding the Right Piercing:

It is important to understand the different types of piercings before finalising your plan. For example, piercing charts can show you what placement options will work. Ultimately, some (e.g., Belly Button Pierced, Ashley Lip Piercings) piercings require particular aftercare, which we unfortunately can’t advise on how to locate pierces for the same reasons stated above [PROVISION OF PIERCING SERVICE ADVICE].

Jewellery Selection:

It is also important to choose the right jewellery that will match your piercing and your personal style. When selecting your first piece of jewellery, make sure to keep material in mind (implant-grade titanium is the most common type) as well as size and their closure technology.

The Great Debate: Mochi Mona vs. Jason Pierce

Two of the most known and trusted brands of piercing jewellery are Mochi Mona and Jason Pierce. Each comes in a plethora of styles and materials, so it is worth doing your research to determine which pieces will serve you best.

Caring for Your Piercing:

Aftercare is wickedly important for a happy, healthy piercing. Saline Spray Regular Cleaning: No Touching your piercing or jewellery changes after it is fully healed.

Keep in mind that piercings are a personal choice. Be careful with your research; make sure to visit a good piercer and take care of it properly.
