Understanding Industrial Piercing
Industrial piercing refers to any type of piercing that involves thick jewelry, typically in high-traffic areas of the body such as the ear cartilage. This style is not only bold but also durable and long-lasting.
The Jewelry: Quality Matters
At Multnomah Body Piercing, we specialize in implant-grade ASTM F136 titanium and solid 14k/18k gold jewelry. Surgical steel is not an option here. These materials are hypoallergenic and ensure your piercings remain healthy for years to come.
Men's Industrial Ear Piercing: Styling Tips
- Earring Placement: For a more masculine look, consider placing the industrial ear piercing in the tragus or helix. These areas offer ample space for thick jewelry without compromising comfort.
- Jewelry Choice: Choose from various thicknesses and lengths to complement your style. From thin chains with chunky beads to bold tubes, there’s a perfect fit for every industrial ear pierce.
- Hairline Piercings: Consider hairline or post piercings if you prefer the industrial look but want more volume in your hair. This is especially popular among men who enjoy the boldness of industrial yet want to maintain a neat appearance.
Safety and Aftercare
At Multnomah Body Piercing, we prioritize safety and ensure all our piercings follow LITHA (Local Industrial Tattoo and Healing Association) protocols. This ensures your healing process is smooth and free from complications.
- Cleanliness: We maintain a sterile environment to reduce the risk of infection. Regular cleaning, monitoring for signs of infection, and proper aftercare are essential steps in the process.
- Aftercare Tips: Following our instructions carefully will maximize the longevity and health of your piercings. This includes keeping the piercing area clean, avoiding hot water, and using prescribed antiseptics as directed.
