Piercing Care

1. Only allow an experienced, reputable piercing shop change your body jewelry. (Jewelry has been alcohol sanitized only.)
   Autoclave sterilization suggested before insertion.
2. Remove Pregnancy Piercing from package.
3. Remove ends (pinch shaft at the base where you see the metal inserted, pull straight out). Ends are NOT Autoclaveable.
4. Bring to a reputable piercing shop.
5. Autoclave (If you choose not to autoclave or if an autoclave machine is unavailable, at a minimum you should wash product with antibacterial soap and water and sterilize in alcohol before use.)
6. Cut to desired length - change piercing.
7. Depending on how long you've had your piercing, taper insertion may be necessary
8. Carefully reinsert ends balls.

• Only use in a healed piercing.
• Have an experienced piercer at a reputable piercing shop change your piercing.
• Always keep your piercing clean.
• Change your piercing every 3 to 4 months.

1. First wash your hands thoroughly. Never touch your piercing or jewelry with dirty hands.
2. Saturate a cotton ball with warm water, and gently wipe away any "crusties" that have gathered around the piercing site. Throw the cotton ball away.
3. Apply a generous amount of liquid soap into your hand, and apply to the piercing site and jewelry.
4. Rinse the piercing and jewelry several times with warm water, ensuring that all soap has been removed.
5. Dry your piercing with a clean towel.

1. Wash your hands thoroughly with an antibacterial or anti microbial soap.
2. Place a pinch of sea salt in the bottom of a small disposable cup.
3. Add hot tap water - as hot as you can stand - to the salt. Use about 3 ounces of water - which is just over half-full in a 5 ounce cup.
4. If possible, invert the cup right over the piercing and allow it to stay there for 5 minutes. This usually works well with naval piercings.  If you can't create a sufficient seal against the skin with the cup, then soak a cotton ball in the salt-water solution and apply the cotton ball to the piercing. When it cools down, throw it away and place a newly saturated cotton ball on the piercing. Do this for 5 minutes.
5. Rinse the piercing with warm water and dry with a clean towel.
