| - Eight years ago I got an industrial piercing in my right ear. I loved it, although it hurt and I had to cover it at my security job. Last week I decided I needed another industrial, so I decided I'd go get one at Diversity.
This review is about the piercing services (and one piercer in particular, Sara) I don't have any tattoos, and although Diversity's selection of, ahem, tobacco smoking products is quiet diverse, I didn't purchase anything of that nature. Well I did get some incense.
At first I wanted another industrial crossing my current one. Sara explained that the way my current piercing was would likely cause rejection in the new piercing if I did that. She was very good at explaining this, and didn't try and sell my anything I didn't want. She presented the facts and let me choose.
So I decided I'd get my other ear pierced. I watched Sara prep the piercing room. Although I'm not a medical professional, I'm interested in pathogens and preventing illness, so I was very impressed with Sara's thoroughness. She wiped down everything, did an impeccable job washing her hands, and sanitized all the tools. Very professional.
The piercing itself wasn't as painful as I thought it would be. I think Sara was better at it than the person who had done my original industrial eight years ago. She told me exactly when she was going to pierce, and made sure I was ready for the other hole. After she was finished she explained aftercare and gave me her cell number in case I had any questions.
The best part is that my piercing doesn't hurt right now. The last industrial I had done hurt for weeks, maybe even months. This one has a slight ache if I jostle it and after I clean it in the shower with antibacterial soap. That's it. Sara is a true artist and professional!
