Thinking about getting a new piercing? At Budd's Beauty, the process is all about comfort and precision.

Quality:

All studs are made of high-grade surgical steel, non-allergenic and nickel safe with an electro-plated covering of pure 24ct. gold. Electro-plated gold is attached over surgical steel with an electrical current and water. This procedure helps to prevent gold flaking off the surgical steel. This allows our earrings a lifetime guarantee against gold flaking.

Device:

We proudly utilize the Studex Hand Pressurized Piercing Instrument. In less than 1/10 of a second, the ear will be pierced and the clasp will be automatically installed on the stud with the proper spacing.

Aftercare Instructions:

DO NOT:

1. Remove the studs
2. Touch your ears and studs unnecessarily
3. Push the butterfly clasp along the post towards the ear - the clasp must always be positioned at the tip of the post. Feel the back of the butterfly each time you cleanse the ear - it must feel smooth.

DO:

1. Leave studs in ears for 6 weeks continuously (12 weeks for cartilage)
2. After 6 weeks (12 weeks for cartilage), the studs can be removed and other post-type earrings may be worn continuously
3. Use only post style earrings continuously for the first 5 months from piercing (12 months for cartilage). The post should be surgical stainless steel or other hyper-allergenic material.
4. Keep hairspray, soap, shampoo and other preparations away from the ear. After shampooing the ear should be rinsed with clear water and then cleaned with a Studex® supplied Ear Care Gel.

EAR CARTILAGE:

Due to the nature of ear cartilage, extra care should be observed during the healing period. Minor pain/redness may occur immediately - this is normal. This should settle within 48 hours provided proper after care is carried out. If undue pain/swelling/redness occurs at any time, seek medical advice immediately, before removing the ear-piercing stud. Failure to properly follow after-care procedures or to seek immediate medical advice should a problem occur may result in permanent scarring to the ear cartilage.
