. . .

I just wanted to take an opportunity to offer a wider range heart felt thank you to everyone I met over the many years, body piercing.

From everyone I worked with, learned from, fellow body piercers and tattoo artists…

There are too many people to thank individually, but you all know who you are.

To each and everyone that I ever pierced, hundreds if not thousands of you after working full time, five or six days a week at times; over eight years. Thank you for your trust and your support.

For that inspired me to be the best I could, at times leaving it all in the studio.

Working in a well established studio Shiva and helping it grow even bigger during my time is something I am proud of, as much as I was in helping out at the newly opened 2nd Skin.

You all left an impression and made piercing a pleasure and an incredible joy.

There is only so long you can do something on repetition, before you become the definition of madness. Before something starts to define you.

I had other opportunities to work in other studios both in London and in other countries. Perhaps one day a touring guest spot…

Never say never, but I am pretty thankful for what piercing gave me; in return for all those needles. If my needles were my arrows then I went to war for you people!

Thank you!

It was a blast! A lot of hard work and dedication, it was truly an honour and a privilege.

Treat each other as you yourself, would like to be treated. That can take you at least half the way in life…

All Love.

Emma’s Transverse Lobe Piercing

Emma and Jenny came in together asking about transverse earlobe piercing, which is always an interesting request when the anatomy suits. Here’s Emma’s freehand transverse earlobe piercing w/1.6mm titanium bar. Had a blast with these ladies and think the piercings look awesome, especially the X effect; when worn with the criss-crossing traditional lobe piercings.

Both Jenny and Emma came in together inquiring about a transverse earlobe piercing, which is always a fun and rarer request. Here’s Jenny’s freehand transverse earlobe piercing w/1.6mm titanium bar. Had a blast with these ladies and think the piercings look killer, especially with the criss-crossing traditional lobe piercing.
