BODY PIERCING CARE TIPSInternally vs Externally Threading
Internally threaded body jewelry refers to when the ball on the jewelry threads into the barbell. Since it's much less likely to cause damage and irritation, especially at the time of piercing, internally threaded jewelry is considered superior to externally threaded jewelry. It is usually slightly more expensive than externally threaded jewelry due to the extra machining and labor involved. All of our jewelry is internally threaded unless otherwise noted.

Changing Out Piercing Jewelry
The rate at which your body piercing heals varies greatly from person to person. Some piercings can take up to a year to heal properly. Even after the piercing has healed, reinsertion can be difficult and sometimes impossible. You should not change your body jewelry during the initial healing period. The initial piercing healing time is usually about 2 - 5 months or sometimes even longer depending on the location of your piercing.
