Review on BodyJ4You Piercing Eyebrow Barbells Jewelry by Mercedes Partridge

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Happy with results but kit can be improved

I have a lot to say so I will try to keep it as short and detailed as possible (please share). The kit includes multiple needles of two sizes and decorations for most areas of the body. The jewelry was available in two sizes, two calibers and four different colors. It consisted mainly of hoops and bars. There were two pairs of collars, one black, one white, and two alcohol swabs. My experience: Everything came on time and in good condition. Nothing is missing and everything is clean. At first glance, the jewelry looks small, but it fits perfectly. I didn't (unfortunately) have the money to go to a professional, so I tried to get pierced at home. The gloves were too small and the alcohol swabs smelled bad. But maybe that's just my experience. Some decorations were too difficult to unscrew, causing some items to become unusable. The needles were sharp, so the puncture itself wasn't too painful. But finding the right caliber wasn't easy. Large jewelry will not fit in any of the needles, so I had to use smaller jewelry at first. A few days later I changed my piercing to deal with the swelling. Some piercings were too complicated (or too risky) to do alone, so I'll save up and have them done professionally. I now have 15 new piercings in total, but I don't recommend doing them all in one day. Tip: Don't try to get pierced at home unless you absolutely can't afford a professional. Do not attempt to treat areas such as the tongue, nipple, or hard-to-reach areas. There may be veins or nerve endings that you don't want to damage! Make sure the embellishment goes through the needle and the thread is threaded correctly. It's a pain to do it again! Some areas take longer to heal than others. This is at least a few weeks for each new piercing. Aftercare is important. Prepare cleaning solution and disinfectant wipes. Regular cleaning of the area prevents infection. As a side note, have tissues or cotton pads ready. Some areas will bleed more than others!
