FAQs | Be Mine Piercing

CAN I BRING MY OWN JEWELRY TO THE PIERCING APPOINTMENT?

We generally cannot pierce with outside jewelry, BUT if the jewelry was purchased at a reputable studio and is from a brand that we know and trust AND is an appropriate fit for the area to be pierced, we may be able to use it. This is ultimately up to the piercer’s discretion.

HELP! MY PIERCING IS IRRITATED, WHAT DO I DO?

Even if we didn’t do your piercing, we’re always happy to take a look at it and do some troubleshooting with you. Feel free to book a “troubleshooting/check up” appointment with us and leave a brief description of what’s going on, or walk in and we will gladly help you and your piercing out!

CAN YOU CUSTOM ORDER JEWELRY FOR ME?

Yes we can! We ask that you ideally come into the studio for a consultation and a chat about what it is you’re looking to order so that we can go over materials, pricing, jewelry style, etc. to get the process started. If you are unable to visit the studio for a consultation, you can always reach out to us via email as well. We love helping bring your jewelry dreams to life!

CAN I TAKE A VIDEO?

We do not allow videos to be taken while piercing services are performed, but we are totally fine with pictures, just ask! :-)

HOW LONG WILL MY PIERCING TAKE TO HEAL?

Lobes, lips, and septums:
approx. 5-6 months
Nostrils and cartilage:
approx. 12 months
Navels, nipples, and surface piercings:
approx: 12+ months

WHAT IS THE AGE REQUIREMENT FOR GETTING A PIERCING?

We offer children’s earlobe piercings for kids 7 and up. Helix, nostril, and septum piercings are offered for children 14+, other ear cartilage piercings ( such as rook, daith, tragus, conch and forward helix), lip piercings, and navel piercings are offered for ages 16+. All other services listed are offered for clients 18+

I'D LIKE TO BRING MY CHILD TO GET A PIERCING, WHAT DOCUMENTS SHOULD I BRING?

We kindly request that you CALL the studio to schedule an appointment for your child. This allows us to ensure that everything is properly arranged and that both you and your child are fully prepared for the visit.
Any minor receiving a piercing or having jewelry inserted must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian and have the following documents on hand:
- For minors aged 7-10, we ask that you bring a valid form of ID for parent/legal guardian, and their birth certificate listing you as their parent.
- For minors aged 11-17, we ask that you bring a valid form of ID for parent/legal guardian, and a form of ID for your child (this can be a government issued form of ID listed above, but we will also accept a student ID, library card with picture and first/last name, or Smile Safe card/Safe Child card). If the minor and parent’s last names differ, we will also need the birth certificate.
- If you are a legal guardian, you will need to present notarized paperwork from the court to indicate guardianship as well as ID for yourself and for the minor.

*** PLEASE NOTE ***

All IDs and documents must be current and up-to-date. We are unable to accept ANY expired IDs.
While we are able to accept digital copies of documents and IDs, we kindly ask that you bring in physical documentation when and where possible.
There are absolutely NO exceptions to these rules. They are in place not only to ensure the safety of our studio and staff but also to protect the health and well-being of you and your child.

HOW MUCH DOES A PIERCING COST?

Exact piercing service pricing is listed in our “services” section. Our pricing is broken down into 2 elements:

THE SERVICE ITSELF - piercing service pricing starts at $30 and goes up from there depending on the piercing. On standard piercings (non genital/nipple, surface, etc.), we offer a discount making subsequent piercings (up to 4 in one session) an additional $15 each
THE JEWELRY - We proudly offer a diverse selection of high-quality body jewelry at various price points! Our goal is to provide our clients with safe body jewelry that is reasonably priced. Our basic implant grade titanium options typically start at $34 and increase in price based on the design and materials used.
