Nipple Piercing
Nipple Piercing
Here is a nipple piercing for which I only pierce with a 1.6mm needle. The length of the bar, like with most piercings but especially for the nipple; will be longer than needed to accommodate initial swelling. The nipple can be one of the longer healing parts of the body to pierce, although I have to say men tend to heal a lot quicker (roughly within 3-6 months) whilst women can take longer (6-12 months) due to the area being more sensitive and obviously functioning differently. Nipples do require a lot of attention regarding aftercare, but a shorter bar or a ring can be fitted when it’s fully healed.
Tongue Tied
Tongue Pierced
Here’s a freshly pierced tongue w/1.6mm x 20mm titanium bar, which is what I pierce with and advise wearing for a minimum of two weeks before returning for a shorter bar.
Smiley
Smiley/Frenulum Piercing
Smiley pierced with a 1.2mm x 8mm CBB.
The Ashleigh Piercing
The Ashley Piercing ~ Inverse Vertical Lip.
The Ashley/Ashleigh piercing is an inverse vertical lip. I’ve pierced countless lips and several vertical lips, but this was my first and only request for the Ashley. The needle goes through your actual lip and with this we used PTFE plastic due to heavy swelling for the first few days. Once it settled down I think Lisa later changed it for a metal bar. It looks killer and I imagine pretty painful. Very proud of this piece.
Wrist Dermal
Time for bling?
Here’s a micro dermal w/clear gem on the side of the wrist. I can also tell you this was done at ten past five on a Monday afternoon. With wrist dermals be mindful of watches, bracelets and clothing. To my knowledge this lady hasn’t had any problems.
Diath/Daith
Diath w/CBB
However you say or spell it, daith or diath; this is what it looks like… pierced by myself with a CBB.
Room w/ a view…
Clamps etc. in the old studio
Tools in the old studio. Clamps, grips, pliers, openers, tweezers and most importantly; you might recognise the aftercare form? Probably with a handwritten link to http://www.instagram.com/el_capitan_body_piercer where I started my online gallery Summer 2013.
Nose Piercing
Spiky Nose Piercing
Here’s one of the most popular piercings, the nose. At Shiva we charge £20 for a plain stud or a spike (shown here) or a range of gem stones for £25. We pierce with 1mm titanium corkscrew/spiral back studs. I never pierce noses with rings as rings spin and thus infection is inevitable, as is it easier to catch rings on things. I usually advise a minimum of three months before I’m happy to change it to a ring for you. It’s also not uncommon for a nose stud to fall/be pulled out. If this happens, in the initial healing period they will heal/close up; ridiculously quick. If this happens, do come back and see me and I’ll happily re-open or re-pierce it.
Nape Micro Dermal a year on…
Nape Dermal a year on…
This nape micro dermal anchor, was done in 2012 but the photo was taken last year. With dermals, I’m always happy to change the tops/heads for customers I’ve pierced; also pop ’em back in if they get caught out.
