IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE BOOKING
Needles
We use single use sterile piercing needles for all our piercings. We do not use piercing guns nor recommend getting pierced by one.
Jewellery - We only pierce with jewellery from our showroom. This is because we follow standards for initial piercings set out by the Association of Professional Piercers and all of our jewellery meets or exceeds these standards.
Jewellery Material/Metal Composition:
We offer a wide range of implant grade metals such as titanium, stainless steel, niobium, nickel free solid 14K and 18K gold, platinum, and glass.
Initial Jewellery: Rings/Hoops - with the exception of septum, daith, and some below the belt piercings, we do not pierce with rings or hoops. This is because rings tend to move and rotate inside the piercing channel which increases the risk of healing problems such as irritation bumps. For most initial jewellery, we use straight style jewellery.
Downsizing
For initial jewellery, we pierce with a slightly longer post, or larger diameter jewellery to accommodate the natural swelling that will occur during the first few weeks after getting pierced. Once swelling from your initial piercing has subsided, a downsize will be required. Downsizing minimises the risks of your jewellery from getting snagged which may lead to piercing irritation, or loss of jewellery. A downsize will provide for a more comfortable fit and help with the next stage of healing. For most cartilage piercings, it is crucial to downsize your jewellery to prevent piercings from drifting, healing in an undesired angle and prevent irritation bumps.

Piercing Etiquette
Please be on time for your piercing appointment. Late arrivals are subject to the rescheduling of your appointment.
Kindly note that there is a maximum of 2 people allowed in the piercing room (the person getting pierced, and one companion) This is to allow our piercers enough space to do their work at their best and provide the most calm and positive piercing experience. In addition, we ask that no photos or videos are taken during the piercing procedure. This is because it adds extra and unnecessary pressure and distraction to our piercers who need to focus and perform their craft to the best of their abilities. We welcome, and love, before and after photos and videos during your piercing experience at Ouro.
