The top picture was taken by Archie at the shop after work, of me piercing George’s nipple. The second shot is about a week or so afterwards and so a little swollen. Pierced George w/1.6mm x 12mm titanium bar. The swelling in this photo should illustrate as to why we always pierce nipples (and most piercings) with longer jewellery so as to allow you to heal properly. George took it well, despite the fact he looks like he’s sucking his thumb! 😂👍

Navel
Without doubt the belly button piercing is still one of the most popular at Shiva and never a better time, than Spring! Nynke’s navel pierced w/1.6mm x 12mm titanium curved bar and a siam/blood-red gem stone by El Capitan @ Shiva Piercings.
Nipple
Donatina found a great way of expressing her happiness with her new nipple piercing with this shot which wasn’t removed from Instagram! Great artistic shot of Donatina’s nipple pierced w/1.6mm titanium barbell.

Nipple
I never take nipple piercing shots despite it being one of the most popular piercings I do. It seems somewhat ungentlemanly and my work on social networks (alongside others I know) just gets removed. The nipple has remained one of the most popular piercings requested @ Shiva in my five years behind the needle and here’s Lauren’s nipple pierced w/1.6mm x 14mm titanium bar.

Septum
Vicky had her nose pierced for a couple years but asked me to take it out and get a septum pierced instead. Smaller noses can look like there’s a lot going on, if you want to be discreet. Here’s Vicky w/1.2mm x 8mm titanium CBB, shot just before widening (jewellery) for hiding!
