Industrial

Standard Industrial

Industrials, also known as scaffold piercings, are a big ‘bang-for-your-buck’ piercing as they are highly visible and decorative, but are essentially just two cartilage piercings linked together with one bar.

You need to be careful during healing not to knock or aggravate the piercings as this will substantially increase the risk of excessive and permanent scar tissue.

Not all ears are anatomically suitable for a traditional straight industrial, so a consultation is require with one of our practitioners before your piercing appointment.

Custom Industrial

Custom industrials have a nearly endless potential for awesomeness. Placement and designs depend greatly on your ear anatomy, so a consultation is required before your piercing appointment.

During the consult, your practitioner will discuss viability and placement to make your vision come to life. Sometimes jewellery components may need to be ordered in for the set-up, so your piercing appointment will be booked in once all the pieces are prepared.

You need to be careful during the healing period not to knock or aggravate the piercings, as they can be prone to mild scar tissue and prolonged healing.
