Speaking of piercings, a couple of questions (one for New Englanders) . |
|
My daughter and I are considering some piercings for our upcoming birthdays next month (she's turning 16, I'm turning 36). I want a little nostril one (which I almost got when I was 18, but then didn't) and she wants an industrial in an ear. As of now she has two in each lobe plus a cartilage in one ear. She wants to know if she can remove an industrial for sports once it heals.
We're also looking for a decent place (very clean with an autoclave) and any recommendations would be great.
Thanks, Your friendly neighborhood, non-traditional mom

1. I know you're down in CT, but |
|
the best place I've ever been is Loonar Piercing in Hadley, MA. Ben, the piercer, did my tongue, and he was great. Clean, friendly, reputable. Been in business for years. :)

We're in CT, but no problem going to Mass or RI.
Crap, this is Sarah. I'm on his laptop and I forgot he was still logged in on this one. :blush:

7. Once it heals, certainly she can take it out... |
|
but healing time is between 2 and 12 months. Cartilage piercings always take a long time to heal, and the industrial is two cartilage piercings, aligned, with one long straight barbell connecting them both.
Decent place? Try the local tattoo studios.
