Body piercing is an art form that dates back over 5,000 years. Once used as a way to warden off evil spirits and protect against diseases, it is now one of the most common forms of self expression.
Everyone is unique, and similarly, no two piercings are the same. They sit differently on the body; showcase different jewellery; and are expressed in different ways by the varying styles of each person.
At Gambier Piercing Parlour, we love helping people bring this art form to life
Our one-on-one service is calming, caring and gentle. In a private setting, we’ll first spend some time assessing the suitability of the desired piercing location to ensure the skin is not broken or damaged, and there is enough of it there for the piercing to grip onto.
We don’t use a piercing gun at Gambier Piercing Parlour because they can cause physical trauma to the surrounding tissue (not to mention their loud sound is enough to scare anyone)! Instead, we use hospital grade single-use catheter needles to gentle pierce the skin. They are individually packaged, pre-sterilised and run no risk of malfunction unlike a piercing gun.
Unlike many other piercing parlours, we let you choose your first jewel. That means that your first piercing will be the jewellery that you want, and not the stock standard plain silver or gold ball ring.
Once the piercing is done, we’ll let you know the aftercare procedure before you depart through our red velvet curtains looking and feeling more yourself … and with a Chupa-Chup in hand (no matter your age)
You’ll leave the Gambier Piercing Parlour with a bottle of Saline Antiseptic Spray, which we advise you to use twice a day for two weeks. At this two week mark, we’ll invite you back into the parlour to do a complimentary review to make sure your skin is adapting to the piercing well (and take some photos if you don’t mind)!
Most of the range on offer at Gambier Piercing Parlour is made of implant-grade titanium. This is much better than the traditional Surgical Steel or Sterling Silver as it is very unlikely that people will have an allergic reaction to it.
All crystals in our jewellery are Swarovski … unless, of course, you want to upgrade to diamonds!
A small number of pieces in our collection however are made of Surgical or Sterling Silver but your piercer will advise you if this is what you have chosen to avoid any irritations or allergies, but all initial piercings are implant grade Titanium.
All pricing includes jewellery (Titanium as your initial piercing and includes both jewelled and non jewelled options) as well as take home piercing spray to keep your new piercing happy, as well as your 2 week follow up review.
