George had never been pierced before, so decided on getting his lobes pierced with the idea to stretch them in future…

Here’s El Capitan VS. George w/some ear lobe piercing action.

• Blue pen out, marking up; all important to get the positioning aesthetically pleasing as well as level and straight.

For a first piercing, George looks pretty relaxed.

• Clamp the lobe with a mini clamp and pierced w/1.6mm needle.

Now all smiles…

• After removing the needle from the canula, snip the canula down at an angle to bite the jewellery thread.

Right side done. Now for the pair…

Left side done.

• Fit the jewellrey into the suspended canula and ease through the pierced lobe leaving just the bar, thread fix the ball on to finish.

George was pierced w/1.6mm x 8mm blackline titanium labret bars w/5mm balls.

All in all, George took it well and enjoyed his first piercing experience ~ no doubt, no less @ Shiva Piercings w/El Capitan.

Special Thanks to Kelly Fitzsimmons for taking the photographs.
