There are several reasons why we do not use ear-piercing guns for any type of piercing.

First: there is no way to sterilize piercing guns. Most guns are made of plastic and will melt under the extreme heat and pressure of an autoclave. Chemical sterilization has not been proven to kill all bloodborne pathogens; this is extremely dangerous since fluid micro-spray (microscopic particles of tissue, blood and other body fluids) might be present on the gun after a piercing.

Second: Piercing guns are considerably more painful than a piercing needle because guns use the blunt end of the jewelry to do the piercing – actually tearing the skin, traumatizing the area, and complicating the healing.

Third: Since both the instrument and the jewelry were designed for earlobes, they are not compatible with other areas of the body, increasing the risk of infection and further complicating the healing process.

Fourth: Standard piercing gun studs are usually made of low-quality metal that can cause additional complications.

Lastly: The jewelry is poorly designed in that the backing traps and collects waste, hair and debris, holding it against or close to the piercing. This is far from an ideal healing environment.

If it isn’t from a professional piercing studio that orders the same jewelry from a company we carry/ promote, we will not be able to use it.

Every piece of jewelry that comes in to our store is carefully cleaned and autoclaved, to ensure each piercing experience is as sterile as possible and done with the highest quality that the industry has available. Without knowing where your jewelry came from, what it is made of, etc. there is no way to know that it is a safe piece to take on healing a fresh piercing. Don’t fear – although we cannot pierce you with your own jewelry, with such a wide selection available for initial piercings, you’re sure to find something that you love that is not only the highest quality, but is tailored to fit your body.

If you are wanting to try to bring in your own jewelry, please come in at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. You are welcome to drop it off earlier, but we cannot sterilize jewelry same day. So if we are able to use your jewelry we will need the 24 hours so that we can properly sterilize it.

You’re here because you want a quality experience and a show-stopping piercing, right? Well, that’s exactly what we offer.

Nervous? Don’t be. You’re in far better hands than you’d ever be at a mall kiosk. Once you’ve experienced a professional jewelry consultation and installation, you’ll wonder why anyone would let a high schooler with a piercing gun within five feet of themselves.

Anytime you are provided a service by someone (think tipping your hairdresser for a great haircut, or your waiter or waitress for a positive experience at a restaurant) tips are always appreciated. There is no “standard” amount, and it can also vary from person to person.

This also goes for our counter staff, if you are happy with the experience you have with them, you are more than welcome to tip them as well, and it doesn’t have to be money! We like baked goods, too.

You have the option of tipping in cash, on card, or Venmo (We ask that if you tip on Venmo specify it is a tip and not a service.)

We will not pierce folks who are pregnant or nursing. When you become pregnant your body is now very focused on growing new life and your immune system can become weakened. The risk of infection (though already small if you go to a reputable piercer/studio) becomes higher, and if somehow you do get an infection in your new piercing, you can pass that on to a nursing child. Piercings also take longer to heal when they are not the priority! Healed piercings can even become affected due to pregnancy. It’s best to wait until you are either no longer pregnant or 1-3 months post partum as this helps your body to settle from pregnancy.

Currently there is no compelling evidence to support or dismiss claims of aid for any health conditions by getting your Daith pierced. Although, that doesn’t stop anyone from getting their Daith pierced.

It is important to note that all we can offer you is a well done and attractive piercing with hope that it helps your needs.

No, we will not pierce anyone with numbing cream on the piercing area. Here are a few reasons why;

-Topical numbing cream doesn’t penetrate all of the tissue so you will feel the same amount of pain then if you aren’t wearing any. You can only get a full numbing effect by injections which require a medical license in the state of Utah. -Topical creams or injections can also cause skin irritation and inflammation that can create issues with our marking process, it’s not to say that it would be dramatically off but even in piercing if the angle is slightly off, it can cause troubles in the healing.

We know it’s scary getting pierced, but the piercing only takes a second (If that.)
