Welcome to Ask a Professional Piercer! Please read the FAQ before posting. As this group has grown in size, we’ve made a thorough list of Frequently Asked Questions to serve as a resource to help more people by eliminating the need to wait for an answer to many questions. If you submit a question that is covered here, your post will not be approved, and you will be directed to this document. We don’t decline questions to be mean or because your question isn’t important. This group runs solely on the efforts of a small handful of volunteers and is nearing 100,000 members. We have to be efficient.

 

This document is broken up into sections for ease of use. This should be considered a living document and will be updated as needed (and as time permits).
