Local tattoo and piercing shops are the primary place to go when wanting to learn more about the industrial bar piercing. Information about this piercing can also be found online on the About site.
You could get two individual clear plugs/bars. It'll be tough to find a clear bar long enough for an industrial.
Do you mean an industrial piercing bar? If so, you can usually go to a shorter bar after a few weeks. If you think that it's ready, go t o your piercer and they'll chnge it if it's ready. If you just mean a normal barbell in a piercing, switch it out after the swelling has gone down. Only switch it to another steel bar or glass. Don't wear any acrylic or studs in it until it actually healed
Any piercing can bleed. Just remember, you are sticking pieces of metal through your body in places that they were not meant to go.
Is the cut related to the piercing or is it just from a scratch in that area? If its unrelated to the piercing, you can put some neosporin or any other antibacterial cream on it. Make sure its the cream and not the ointment because the ointment is too thick and can stop the piercing from breathing if the cut is close to the piercing. If the piercing hole looks like a slit because of the cut or migration, go see your piercer. You might need a custom bar or to remove the piercing and get it done again later.
Any body piercing studio will be able to do your cartilage piercings, check them out under body piercing in the phone book.
Industrial piercings are done with a needle in the hands of a trained professional body piercer. Ardenes is not a body piercing facility, they are not licensed to do body piercing nor do they know how to do industrial piercings. They use piercing guns for ear lobes only. See a professional body piercer at a body piercing studio or your local professional tattoo shop.
Yes but it depends on where you go... i got mine done in July and i was still 14 when i was in Hollywood.. just go with a parent of course :)
No, you need to get a longer bar.
Risks of an industrial include keloids, hypertrophic scarring, and infection. If cared for properly, none of these things should occur.
Navel piercing that are a year old are considered "seasoned" and can go without jewellery for any where from a day to several days. Removing the jewellery from an "unseasoned" piercing can lead to loss of the piercing and undue trauma to the newly forming tissue that makes up the piercing.
Just buy regular salt, or you can go back I your Piercer and get something.
