A piercing is jewellery you'll live with for months, so placement matters as much as style — a good piercer marks the spot and checks the angle before anything happens. Fresh piercings heal best in implant-grade titanium or solid gold; cheaper alloys can irritate healing skin. Healing takes anywhere from weeks to a year depending on the spot, and regulars know the rules: saline, clean hands, no twisting. Jewellery changeovers should wait until a piercing is fully healed.
SkinKandy offers 65-plus piercing types with starter jewellery included, drawing clients from across the Manawatū to The Plaza in central Palmerston North.
