Summer & Piercings: The Do's & Don'ts for Your Piercing Care

Summer is a time for fun, relaxation, and enjoying the sun, but if you have a fresh piercing, there are some important do's and don'ts to keep in mind to ensure your piercing heals properly and stays looking great during the summer months.


Don'ts:

1. Don't get pierced right before going on vacation:
While it may be tempting to get a new piercing before your trip, it's important to consider the healing time required for piercings. Getting pierced right before a vacation can expose your new piercing to unfamiliar environments and make it difficult to properly care for it while you're away.

2. Avoid exposing fresh piercings to water:
Whether you're hitting the beach, pool, or lake, it's crucial to keep your fresh piercing away from water during the initial healing period. Pools, oceans, and lakes can harbor bacteria that may lead to infection in a new piercing.

3. Humidity and fresh piercings: 
High humidity levels during the summer can impact the healing process of your piercing. Excessive sweating and exposure to humidity can create a moist environment that may prolong the healing time or increase the risk of infection.


Do's:

1. Schedule a post-downsize appointment before your vacation:
If your piercing requires downsizing or a check-up during the healing process, make sure to schedule an appointment with your piercer before you leave for your vacation. This will ensure that your piercing is well taken care of while you're away.

2. Pack a bottle of aftercare solution:
When traveling during the summer, it's essential to bring along a travel-sized bottle of your aftercare solution. In case you need to clean your piercing while on the go, having your aftercare solution readily available can help maintain the cleanliness of your piercing. Shop here >>

3. Find an APP studio near your vacation spot: 
If you encounter any issues with your piercing, such as lost jewelry or signs of infection, seek out an Association of Professional Piercers (APP) studio near your vacation destination. APP studios adhere to strict safety and hygiene standards, ensuring that you receive proper care for your piercing. Learn more here >>


Additional Tips:

4. Protect your piercing from direct sunlight:
Excessive exposure to sunlight can cause irritation and discoloration in your piercing. To protect your piercing, consider covering it with clothing or applying a bandage if it's exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period.

5. Avoid applying sunscreen directly to the piercing:
Sunscreen can contain chemicals that may irritate your piercing. If you need to apply sunscreen near your piercing, be cautious not to get it directly on the piercing itself.

6. Stay hydrated:
Proper hydration is essential for overall health and can also aid in the healing of your piercing. Drink plenty of water, especially if you're spending time in the sun or engaging in physical activities.

By following these do's and don'ts, you can enjoy a fun and safe summer while ensuring that your piercing heals properly. Remember to prioritize the care of your piercing to maintain its health and appearance in the long run. Stay safe and happy piercing!

    I promise to share this testimony all over the world once my boyfriend returns to me, and today with all due respect I want to thank DR.ONIHA for bringing joy and happiness to my relationship and my family. I want to inform you all that there is a spell caster that is real and genuine. I never believed in any of these things until I lost my boyfriend, I required help until I found a great spell caster, And he cast a love spell for me, and he assured me that I will get my boyfriend back in two days after the spell has been cast. Three days later, my phone rang, and so shockingly, it was my boyfriend who has not called me for the past 6 years now, and made an apology for the heartbreak, and told me that he is ready to be my backbone till the rest of his life with me. DR.ONIHA released him to let me know how much I loved and wanted him. And opened his eyes to picture how much we have shared together. As I`m writing this testimony right now I`m the happiest girl on earth and me and my boyfriend are living a happy life and our love is now stronger than how it was even before our break up. So that`s why I promised to share my testimony all over the universe. All thanks goes to DR.ONIHA for the excessive work that he has done for me. Below is the email address in any situation you are undergoing, it may be a heartbreak, and I assure you that as he has done mine, he will definitely help you too.

    I am so happy to share this fantastic testimony of mine. My life has changed round completely in 48hours. I can see myself in the mirror and smile. I have confidence in myself and my abilities for the first time in ages. I have my boyfriend back in my life with the help of Dr Oniha. He said sorry 24 hours after the spell was created. He said he realised that he never really wanted to break up and he could not handle emotional baggage I was carrying around all the time. He said that he thought he was the negative influence on my life and thought it best to leave. He said it was hard that I kept talking about the past all the time. We have both forgiven each other. I have money in my pocket that is my own at last. (My compensation cheque came through. I was told it was months away. I am living proof of what Dr Oniha can do. I thank you so much Dr Oniha for the wonderful thing you did in my relationship. I am so happy now. With your help we were both able to see and speak the truth to each other. I never thought a spell could help a couple before. I am very pleased to contact you and initiate all this to happen. Anyone who has a relationship problem can contact Dr Oniha via email.
