I had a phone call today from a young lady inquiring about the price of a nostril piercing with a stud. She called back a few minutes later wanting to know how much it would be without the stud. ???

We have never understood how normally conscientious people can choose a piercer by looking for the cheapest price! But it happens, and the people get taken for a ride.

Piercing aftercare has evolved significantly over the time I have been piercing.

When I started piercing (now too long ago to specify) the state of the art was poor. Few people had anything besides their ears pierced, with a few nostrils thrown in for variety.
