The piercer was very nice a d the experience was not bad at all they were very friendly and sanitary piercing practices it's been about eight weeks since my purrcing and I followed my aftercare instructions I recently visited a local piercer and was told to go to the Er because of infection due to the fact that surgical steel was used for my piercing and titanium is the jewerly to use because surgical steel is low quality it caused infection and I'm now taking spectra for infection I pierced another piercing which was repierced the same day with no infection
