The Ultimate Piercing Guide: Everything You Need to Know Before Getting Pierced

Whether you're piercing obsessed or considering your first piercing, your piercing journey requires knowledge and preparation. From choosing where to get pierced to understanding  the aftercare process, this piercing guide covers everything you need to know to ensure an enjoyable and satisfying piercing experience. 

Picking The Right Piercing Location

Selecting the right place to get pierced is the first and most important step in a successful piercing experience. With that being said, there is no right answer other than Ali Weiss Jewelry! We are not only a fine jewelry brand but a luxury piercing studio! All of our piercers are experienced, certified, and knowledgeable on piercings, as well as friendly and cool as s**t! At Ali Weiss Jewelry, we prioritize cleanliness, professionalism, and of course fun. We want to make sure that every one of our customers walks away with not only a sick new piercing, but a huge smile on their face :) 

Understand The Piercing Process 

It is important to familiarize yourself with the piercing process to alleviate any anxiety or uncertainty. On the day of your piercing, our expert piercers will give you all of the information you need to feel safe and comfortable. The process always begins with a very sterilized ear cleaning process. Following, you and the piercer will figure out where exactly your earring should go! After a quick 1-2-3…your piercing will be over and you will be smiling from ear to ear wondering why you were even nervous! Our number one priority is creating a comfortable and enjoyable environment for all of our customers and ensuring everyone walks out with a smile! 

Engage In Proper Aftercare

Ear piercings can get backed up with bacteria and infected very easily, that's why engaging in the right aftercare is essential for ensuring the health and longevity of your piercing. Luckily, we carry just about everything you need to make sure your piercing stays shiny new 24/7. From our piercing pillow to our jewelry cleaning kit, we got you covered! 

Patience Is Key

I know you want the pain of your new piercing to go away overnight, it unfortunately takes a little bit of time. While some piercings may heal in a matter of weeks, others may take several months due to the placement of your piercing. During the healing process, it is normal to experience some tenderness and redness around the piercing…but resist all temptation to play with your piercing! Make sure you are sleeping with your Ali Weiss piercing pillow and using your aftercare mist to soothe your piercing. 

Getting a new ear piercing is such an exciting experience that you will never forget! By following this ultimate piercing guide, you will be prepared and ready to embark on your piercing journey :)
