Check these criteria:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Does it use sterile, single-use needles?<\/li>\n<li>Does the jewellery meet implant-grade material standards?<\/li>\n<li>Are hygiene and cleanliness visible, and are gloves used?<\/li>\n<li>Is the piercer experienced and willing to explain?<\/li>\n<li>Are aftercare instructions given in writing?<\/li>\n<li>Are the reviews and photos of work real?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Red flags<\/h2>\n<p>Using a piercing gun, promising a high price but selling low-quality jewellery, brushing off questions, a dirty environment and pressure are signs you should stay away from.<\/p>\n<h2>Don't hesitate to ask<\/h2>\n<p>You can ask about the jewellery material, the sterilisation method and the healing process. A good piercer is not bothered by these questions.<\/p>\n<p><!--p34z--><\/p>\n<h2>Hygiene and sterile equipment<\/h2>\n<p>A new sterile-packed needle, gloves and tools should be used for every client at the studio. Reusable tools should be sterilised in an autoclave and sterilisation records should be kept. Work surfaces should be disinfected after each client. It is normal to ask about this process; a good studio is happy to explain it.<\/p>\n<h2>Piercer experience and communication<\/h2>\n<p>Ask about the piercer's experience, the spots they work on and their training. A portfolio and healed examples are important. A piercer who answers your questions patiently, is not hasty and keeps you informed is trustworthy. Clearly applying age limits and consent rules is also a positive sign.<\/p>\n<h2>Jewellery quality<\/h2>\n<p>Initial jewellery should be implant-grade titanium, niobium or nickel-free gold. The studio should give a clear answer when asked about the material standard. Cheap plating or unknown material is a red flag. The variety of jewellery and size options is also a sign of quality.<\/p>\n<h2>Aftercare support and follow-up<\/h2>\n<p>Written aftercare instructions should be given after the piercing, and a check-up visit and downsizing should be planned. There should be a contact channel you can reach if you have a problem. Prices should be transparent with no hidden charges. These features show the studio takes its work seriously.<\/p>\n<p><!--p34w--><\/p>\n<h2>Red flags<\/h2>\n<p>Using a piercing gun, piercing at a jeweller's counter, being unable to show sterilisation, not checking age, not giving aftercare information and being unable to name the jewellery material are red flags. Be careful if the price is very low or the piercer is in a hurry. If you see any of these signs, it is safer to look for another studio.<\/p>\n<h2>Questions to ask at your appointment<\/h2>\n<p>What jewellery do you use? Are the needles sterile? What do the first jewellery change and check-up cost? Which aftercare product do you recommend? These questions test the studio's transparency and professionalism. If the answers are clear and patient, you can go ahead with confidence.<\/p>\n<h2>Common mistakes<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Relying only on Instagram photos<\/li>\n<li>Being tempted by a cheap price<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"note\">This article is for general information and is not a substitute for medical advice.
