I'm afraid of needles and very nervous! What can I do to help me get through this?
Many people have a fear of needles which prevents them from getting a piercing. I believe that this fear can be overcome once you get your first piercing. Most of the pain associated with getting pierced is all in our head. We have repeat clientele that are becoming less nervous with each procedure they get done. It's normal to be nervous prior to getting your piercing but it usually subsides quickly once you get it done. Getting a needle at a doctor is completely different than getting a piercing. It's definitely more exciting to leave our studio with a new piece of jewellery versus a bruise and a band-aid from the doctor!
If I get pregnant do I have to take out my navel piercing?
Most women say that there navel jewellery becomes uncomfortable after the first six months of pregnancy. In most cases during child birth your skin will stretch causing your original piercing to become crooked or shallower than it previously was. Also some doctors may require you to take it out while you're in the hospital and you may have a difficult time inserting it once again. My best suggestion would be to re-pierce your navel after nursing and once your immune system gets back on track.
I have a little bump near my navel piercing. What is that?
It's called a keloid. Different piercing artists will say that they happen for different reasons. Best thing to do is keep cleaning it and DO NOT pick at it! It will go away.
