Other important tips to avoid damaging your piercing:
Hair: Hair contains oil and dirt, which can irritate your piercing. We recommend keeping your hair tied back to prevent contamination or accidental pulling.
Pets: Sleeping with your pet, allowing them near your pillow, or letting them lick your piercing can lead to serious infection. Keep pets away from your piercing and pillow.
Pillowcase: Pillowcases can harbor bacteria that may cause infection. They absorb oil, dirt, and dead skin from your hair and face. We recommend changing your pillowcase frequently.
Cellphone: Phones are a major source of bacteria and may infect your piercing. Avoid letting your phone touch the area and keep it disinfected in case of accidental contact.
Towels: Towels contain bacteria and dead skin, which can cause infection. Never clean your piercing with a towel—use cotton swabs (Q-Tips) or paper towels instead.
Bodies of water: Avoid swimming or entering pools, oceans, or lakes while your piercing is healing, as this can lead to infection.
Alcohol and smoking: These can weaken your immune system and slow the healing process.
Poor diet: Lack of proper nutrition can also lower your defenses and delay healing.
Piercings require good hygiene and care even after they’re fully healed. This is a commitment you take on when choosing to get a body piercing. Remember: low-quality jewelry can damage even a healed piercing cheap can become costly.
