Heather’s Helix Piercings

Heather’s double lower-helix piercings pierced w/1.2mm titanium labret bars at the newly opened 2nd Skin. Always a continued privilege to be trusted by the many people I meet piercing and Heather’s addition on the right ear compliments/completes her ear rim/helix wrap perfectly. Both of my additions are third down on each ear and look good with or without matching heads 🙂

Sophie’s Daith Piercing

Here’s some shots of Sophie’s fresh (drifted) snug piercing and daith, both pierced w/titanium jewellery at 2nd Skin. It’s a true honour to say I have pierced all of Sophie’s 15+ piercings over the years at Shiva, so there’s some various bits pictured here; including tragus, fwd-helix, conch, stetched lobe and the fresh additional snug (positioned in line with the conch at Sophie’s request) on the right ear. On the left ear is the fresh daith alongside a rook, helix, stretched lobe and tragus. Always a pleasure and so much appreciation for being the first person I got to pierce in a new studio. You can find me piercing at 2nd Skin, on Fridays throughout Spring 2017.

Abbie’s Double Flatbed Helix Piercings

Here’s some sweet shots of Abbie’s double flatbed helix piercings pierced w/1.2mm titanium labret bars and 3mm crystal clear heads. The lower two piercings were pierced by me, adding to the top existing piercing (not pierced by me) to create a cluster trio alongside the helix. Always a pleasure, whether it be vague or with something specific in mind.

Laura’s Triple Helix Triangle Piercings

Was an absolute pleasure to fulfill Laura’s awesome request of having a flatbed triangle-trio of helix piercings, pierced w/1.2mm titanium labret bars. Contrasts and compliments the ear lobe trio perfectly and was a total blast to do.

Dylan’s ear lobes triple stretched each side with black 4mm silicone tunnels and 2.4mm steel BCRs fitted. This wild style looks rad alongside the 1.6mm steel skull BCR up top in each helix.

The lovely Chloe’s triple helix piercings all pierced w/1.2mm x 8mm titanium labret bars. The top two are around 2-3 months into healing whilst the third/lowest has just been added at the time of the pictures. Always a pleasure to meet so many wonderful people and we were both real happy with how this classy triple cluster turned out.

Lois’ Custom Top-Ear Piercing

Lois came in for an additional piercing alongside an existing helix piercing (BCR ring – not pierced by me) at the top of the ear. I’m sure there’s an exact name for this precise positioning somewhere, I love the placement; dead center pierced w/1.2mm titanium labret bar. I think this is both simple yet striking and it’s always a pleasure n’ made to measure to a customer/client’s request. More of these, please.

Here’s a few shots of Katherine’s double helix/top-ear piercings originally pierced w/1.2mm jeweled titanium bars and a few months later refitted with rose gold segment rings. Always a pleasure meeting and piercing so many great people in Greenwich.

 

Daith & Helix

Linda’s Daith & Helix Piercings

Linda’s daith piercing originally pierced w/1.2mm x 8mm titanium CBB and later changed to a 1.2mm curved bar w/internally threaded purple opal stones. A helix/top-ear piercing was also added w/1.2mm x 8mm titanium labret bar. Both Linda and her daughter Eve got the daith piercings over six months ago after hearing about the migraine hype… With this wave of migraine theory, I have tried to keep tabs on my clients and others that I meet to gauge an average for if this particular piercing actually helps. To all those interested in the idea, I would honestly say it is 50/50 i.e. 5/10 people tell me they are ‘cured’ or ‘relieved’ whilst for some, it does not have any affect at all. There are so many variables that it is difficult to be accurate and I couldn’t generally say it works, however both Linda and Eve eventually had positive results. It’s an absolute genuine pleasure to say that Linda had instant migraine relief, whilst initially Eve didn’t notice much difference within the first 2-3 months. However, three months in and Eve hasn’t had a migraine in three or four months now. These two lovely ladies are a great illustration to show how in certain cases there can be an immediate effect whilst for some people it can take a duration of time to fully heal; hopefully finding pain relief later on down the line. I love doing what I do and meeting the many wonderful people along the way; the daith piercing has easily become a firm favourite of mine and words alone can’t express how incredible it feels to help someone take out a headache.
