Jewelry fitting & aftercare
Jewelry fitting
To ensure your solid gold body jewelry stays in great shape, we advise to get help from a professional piercer, especially if you're changing it for the first time.
A piercer has the expertise to make sure the jewelry fits securely and is the right choice for your particular piercing.
Our delicate gold jewelry can bend easily if you push or twist it too hard. So, always handle it gently and don't use force. If you ever find it stuck, don't try to fix it yourself – ask your piercer for assistance.
We strongly advise against using any tools to put on your jewelry because it might harm it, and we want to keep your jewelry looking its best.
Piercing Aftercare
It's crucial to prioritize piercing aftercare to ensure both the longevity and comfort of your new adornment. Here are some essential tips to guide you on your path to healing and maintaining your piercing:
1. Cleanliness is Key: Gently clean your piercing daily with a saline solution or a mild, alcohol-free antiseptic. Avoid harsh chemicals, such as hydrogen peroxide or alcohol, as they can irritate the piercing.
2. Hands Off: Resist the temptation to touch or twist your piercing unnecessarily. Always handle it with clean hands if you must touch it, and only when cleaning it.
3. Avoid Swimming: Stay away from pools, hot tubs, and natural bodies of water until your piercing is fully healed. The water can introduce bacteria and irritants.
4. Choose Appropriate Jewelry: Make sure you wear jewelry made from materials compatible with your body, such as our high-quality gold. Low-quality materials can lead to allergic reactions or infections.
5. Bedside Care: Be cautious while sleeping, especially with ear or facial piercings. Use a clean pillowcase and avoid sleeping on the side of your new piercing.
6. Say No to Changing Jewelry Prematurely: Do not change your jewelry until your piercing is fully healed, which can take several weeks to months, depending on the type of piercing.
7. Keep It Dry: Ensure that your piercing stays dry after cleaning. Moisture can create an environment for bacteria to thrive.
8. Watch for Signs of Infection: Be vigilant for any signs of infection, such as excessive redness, swelling, or discharge. If you suspect an infection, seek professional advice promptly.
9. Consult a Piercing Professional: If you have any concerns or questions about your piercing, don't hesitate to reach out to a professional piercer. They can provide valuable guidance and address any issues that may arise.
Remember, the healing process varies from person to person, so be patient and attentive to your body's signals. Proper aftercare ensures that your piercing becomes a beautiful and enduring part of your self-expression.
