The lovely Charlotte requested a snug – drifting between a snug and an outer conch ear cartilage piercing – which I was more than happy to do! 👊😷💉 having previously pierced Charlotte’s tragus (pictured) and tongue (pictured elsewhere in my portfolio) I know Charlotte always looks after her piercings; this drifted snug was pierced w/1.2mm curved titanium bar.

Alongside a healing septum piercing, same day I did the vertical scaffold on Layla, I also switched up her cheek piercings for killer 1.6mm segment rings.

Here’s a piercing I was particularly excited to get in the gallery as it’d been a while since I’d done one and I hadn’t photographed one before. It’s not something I get requested a lot @ Shiva Piercings although I’ve pierced a few over the years, but the vertical lip piercing looks awesome and here is Paris’ pierced w/1.2mm x 12mm curved titanium barbell; to allow for the initial swelling. Honoured to add to Paris’ collection and the vert-lip looks wicked underneath the septum piercing.

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.

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.

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!
