Piercing Aftercare History - Body Piercing Basics EP74

In the 74th episode in our Youtube series Body Piercing Basics, DaVo covers the history and evolution of Body Piercing Aftercare over the past 30 years or so and what is the correct best way to heal a piercing. The idea behind this subject is to help explain why many piercers have conflicting care instructions or ones that are completely outdated. For DaVo current Aftercare instructions go to https://axiompiercing.com/aftercare-instructions

 If you have a question you would like to see covered in a future video, please comment or contact DaVo at davo@axiompiercing.com.

I aka DaVo have been a professional body piercer and the owner of the Axiom Body Piercing Studio in Des Moines, Iowa since 1994. My focus on education and helping clients make safe and informed decisions on getting pierced has always been a large part of my business practices and services. With my website and increasingly on youtube, I hope to expand and inform others outside of my small part of the world. I always encourage questions and comments, so if you have one, please comment.
