The Tea: What to Do if You Think You've Been Pierced Incorrectly
Hey Body Candy Fam!
Happy Thursday, everyone! Welcome, welcome, welcome to my weekly e-zine, The Tea.
Today's topics:
- Uh oh. Your piercing just doesn't look right. Something's not healing. Maybe it's a little off-kilter. What now?
- Your first move should always be: TALK TO A PROFESSIONAL PIERCER. They're experienced in this area and qualified to help you remove the jewelry if necessary, heal correctly, and plan appropriately for a new piercing.
- If you think the piercer who performed your initial piercing messed up, it might be time to try someone new. Look for an APP-recognized piercer in your area (or plan for a fun road trip).
- A lot of you have asked about my high nostril piercings. I had to take them out because they just weren't healing up correctly. I went to an APP piercer in my area and they helped me heal up with no visible scars :).
- Removing a piercing doesn't mean you have to give up on the pierced or modified look - just make sure you're practicing good aftercare.

ALLEY'S PICKS: MATTE FINISH JEWELRY
Sometimes your body just doesn't react right to certain materials. It is what it is, but be wary of the term "hypoallergenic." No material is 100% completely reaction-free, but one of the most biocompatible options for your piercing is the material "bioplast." Body Candy offers a ton of comfy, flexible bioplast options for any of your piercings, and might be a good solution if you're struggling with irritation. We just uploaded a bunch of fun new jewelry to the site too - we have starfish, lobsters, sativa moons, peace signs... I guess since we're the largest body jewelry store on the internet, you could say we have a little bit of everything! Finally, one of our hottest collections has been the matte finish collection. We just restocked a bunch of fun colors in a bunch of different jewelry styles. You definitely have to check it out.
On the surgery theme, a bunch of Body Candy babes have been sending in their own personal x-rays featuring their body jewelry silhouettes. We've picked out ten of our favorites for a Body Jewelry blog this week. Head over and see what we picked out for our blog this week: "10 Fascinating Pictures of Body Jewelry in X-Rays."
