Quite a coincidental Thread lol
My girlfriend had just gone to have her lip pierced a week ago. Follow me on the story. We arrive at the place, and make sure we know what metal the guy uses. He told us he used titanium, which was good. My girlfriend rejects surgical stainless steel, so it was clear we knew what metal he was working with. He told my girlfriend to put a mark on her face where she wanted the piercing to be. She put it in the place she wanted the piercing. He put his gloves on and got to work. Afterwards, he said to clean the outside with tea-tree oil. And clean the inside with hot salt water.
For that one lip piercing, he charged us £25. A few days later, my girlfriend says that it's been irritating her. We go to this other place where the guy has had more experience, but he wasn't there the day we wanted him to be. He takes a look at it, and says that everything is wrong with it. It WAS stainless steel, not titanium. So my girlfriend has been getting an allergic reaction to it. The bar size wasn't right, neither was the angle. And for two lip piercings, he would charge £25. We got only one for that price. So the other place completely ripped us off. And the other guy didn't have any proper training or expertise, so he just lied and took our money.
Anyway, that annoying story aside, she has just had a piercing. Piercings are fine, it depends what one you're wanting? Because you didn't say
