Before Your Piercing

Piercing doesn't need to be daunting. At Hairhouse, our piercers are highly trained and work within only the safest and most sterile environments. But it's also necessary to prioritize pre-piercing preparation before you step into the salon. Here's how you can best get ready for a successful piercing:

  • The healthier you are, the better your body will heal, which means that eating well and avoiding alcohol and drugs before your appointment.
  • Get some sleep. A relaxed, at ease demeanour will reduce any anxiety before, during, or after your piercing.
  • Drink lots of water. Being hydrated helps with the healing process.
  • Choose your piercer wisely. Hairhouse piercers strive to provide a professional, safe place, so your experience is enjoyable and successful.
  • If you are unwell or overly stressed, postpone your appointment. Having a piercing when you not in a great state of mind may cloud the experience and affect the healing process.
  • Avoid waxing, shaving, or laser hair removal at least three days before your piercing. All surface skin should be calm and free of irritation.
  • Arrive clean and comfortable. We strongly suggest you shower before your piercing as the skin around the piercing should remain dry afterward. Also, ensure you are wearing clothing that is light and loose so that any body piercings remain unrestricted by fabric.
  • Have a hand to hold! If you are under 16 years of age, a parent is allowed in the piercing room with you.

Piercing After Care

So, your piercing is done, what’s next? Proper aftercare is essential to support healing and help avoid irritation. Here’s what you need to know before you leave the studio.

  • Book your follow-up appointment before you go. Your Hairhouse piercer will usually recommend a check-in around six weeks after your piercing.
  • Keep your piercing clean, dry and in place while it heals. Avoid swimming, touching the area unnecessarily, and removing your jewellery too early, as this can lead to irritation, scarring or infection. Our professional-grade jewellery is designed to support safe healing.
  • Healing times vary depending on the piercing location. Oral and nose piercings require extra care and cleaning, and your Hairhouse piercer will provide personalised aftercare advice for your piercing.
  • Some redness, swelling or tenderness is normal during the healing process. If you experience ongoing irritation or have any concerns, contact your Hairhouse piercing professional for advice, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Piercing | Frequently Asked Questions

Not exactly. Decorative hoops and costume jewellery move around in the piercing hole too much, and the metals used may not aid the healing process. Hairhouse are proud to stock the best piercing jewellery in the business. We refuse to use inferior materials in any of our jewellery making the quality of our jewellery the best in the market, helping to prevent infection effectively.

Under no circumstances will ANY piercing be conducted on any person under the age of 16 years without a ‘Consent Form’ signed by their parent or guardian. The parent or guardian must sign the consent form and provide evidence of guardianship (e.g. Medicare card with both names on it) – signing of the consent form by a parent or guardian must be witnessed by the Body Piercer.

Persons aged 16 years and over do not need parental permission to obtain a piercing except in Western Australia and the Northern Territory, where the legal age for piercing without parental consent is 18 years of age. Notwithstanding, in Western Australia an ear lobe piercing only may be conducted a person who has reached the age of 16 years.

Except in New South Wales, nipple piercings will not be conducted on a person under the age of 18 years. In New South Wales, nipple piercings may be conducted on persons aged 16 years and over.

Under no circumstances will any piercing service be conducted on the genitals or genital area.

Piercings take time to heal, so we only use the highest quality jewellery to reduce the risk of infection. These metal materials include the highest grade of surgical steel and titanium, including the premium F136 Titanium.

Swelling, red patchiness and fluid secretion may be a sign of irritation, not infection. Don’t stress! The first thing you need to do is make an appointment with your Hairhouse piercing professional (all part of the Priority Piercing Plan) and if there is an infection, your piercer will advise you on the next steps. Do not remove your jewellery as it may trap the infection inside the piercing channel. Most importantly, keep the area as clean and as dry as possible and we can help with the rest.

Absolutely. But remember, ears come in all shapes and sizes so the results may vary depending on the symmetry and shape of your ears. Our Hairhouse piercing professionals will take you through the most realistic options and exactly what will and won’t work for your ear, before you take the piercing plunge!
