EAR Piercing FAQs
Find clear, friendly answers to popular questions about our ear piercing services to help you choose your perfect style.
How should I prepare for my ear piercing appointment?
There’s not much to do before an ear piercing but top tip is to always ensure that you eat and stay hydrated before arriving. Its a good idea to wash your hair before your appointment too. You may want to bring a hair tie if you have long hair so that you can keep your hair off the area right away.
What aftercare is required for ear piercings?
Clean your piercing twice daily with saline solution and avoid touching it with dirty hands. We stock saline solution at the studio for this.
Are ear piercings painful?
Some piercings can be more painful than others, but most clients describe a quick pinch. Our piercer will ensure they make it as comfortable as possible.
Can I choose custom jewelry for my piercing?
Yes, we offer a variety of styles to match your personal taste. We will guide you to choosing the best type of jewellery for your piercing.
