Body art and body piercings have been popular through the ages for their limitless potential for self-expression. An edgy and cool way to make a style statement, body piercings are the way to go for you if you would like to try a permanent form of body art but are not quite ready for a tattoo yet.<\/p>\n

Or maybe you love body art, already have a bunch of tattoos, and are looking to expand even further.<\/p>\n

Body piercings, while less flamboyant and out-there as a form of body art, are still invasive in nature & require great care and expertise to perform successfully. Although you may be flooded with advice in this regard, there are some cardinal rules one must keep in mind when considering any kind of piercing:<\/p>\n

Do not do this at home. No matter how many \u2018how to\u2019s you see online, never do this on yourself, by yourself at home. Body piercings, by nature, can attract a host of complications and be a minefield of infections if done improperly. Unless you are an experienced and licensed professional, do not try anybody piercing at home.<\/p>\n

Get your body piercing done by an experienced, licensed professional who maintains proper standards of hygiene and uses the correct tools.<\/p>\n

Always go in with some amount of research of your own, so that you can make better choices and judgments in the course of this process. While body piercings are a very subtle form of body art, they are still permanent & require you to stay informed if you are considering it.<\/p>\n

If your piercing site has any rash, mole or lumps; or if you have any kind of pre-existing medical conditions, it is very important to discuss it with the piercer, no matter how irrelevant you may think it is.<\/p>\n

For any kind of body art, a clear statement of consent from the piercee to the piercer is vital. It is your body and you have the right to say no if you change your mind or feel like you are not ready for this. State your consent clearly, so that the piercer may understand when to back off.<\/p>\n

If you have any kind of reaction after the piercing, it is very important to see a doctor or physician right away.<\/p>\n

The piercing artist must be wearing gloves at all times, mark the spot of your piercing with a fresh marker (which is discarded once used on you), should be using a freshly sterilized piercing needle and completely sanitized equipment (one-use non-reusable ones are preferable), and should be ready to answer any or all questions you may have for them.<\/p>\n

Do not get too many piercings in one area in one go. Take it slow, and build your piercings over time if that\u2019s what you want.<\/p>\n
