Piercing Groupings - Planning & Getting Body Piercing Basics EP90
In the 90th episode in our YouTube series Body Piercing Basics, DaVo covers planning out and getting a piercing grouping.
Show Notes:
Consultation:
Discuss your long-term goals
Have them access your anatomy
What can your budget handle
What can your body tolerate
What is your pain experience
Discuss the type of jewelry you plan on wearing
Piercing all at once Vs in stages
All at once
Get it all at once and heal once
Sometimes easier to match the placement
Pain may increase with each piercing
Often there is a discount
in stages
Doesn’t strain the body’s healing and immunity
longer healing period
The cost can be spread out over time
more time to adjust to the pain
The Piercing
Ask that your piercer marks all the piercings in the group
Make sure that the placement fits your anatomy
Make sure that the markings are evenly spaced
Make sure that there is space for the jewelry style
pick the first piercing placement so that it won’t look out of place
allow enough time between each piercing for the swelling to reduce and return to normal tissue.
If you are doing a design or pattern, make sure that the pattern is represented
You should have room to adjust if the piercings migrate.

I, also known as DaVo, have been a professional body piercer and the owner of Axiom Body Piercing Studio in Des Moines, Iowa, since 1994. My focus on education and helping clients make informed decisions about getting pierced has always been a significant 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 welcome questions and comments, so if you have one, please don't hesitate to share.
