In Season 2 Episode 51, DaVo covers the Pros & Cons of having a male genital piercing called a Pubic Piercing. In addition, he covers what you should know before, the piercing experience, healing the piercing, Jewelry, and abandoning the piercing.
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.
