Safe, Sterile Piercings in Yuma

At Stranded Ink, we take piercing safety seriously. Our studio follows strict sterilization protocols that meet or exceed Arizona health regulations. Consequently, you can feel confident knowing your piercing is performed in a clean, professional environment.

We never use piercing guns—only sterile, single-use needles. Why does this matter? Piercing needles create a cleaner hole, cause less tissue trauma, and reduce the risk of infection. As a result, your piercing heals faster and looks better.

Our Safety Standards Include:

Autoclave Sterilization

All reusable tools are sterilized using hospital-grade autoclave equipment before every use.

Single-Use Needles

Every piercing uses a brand-new, pre-sterilized needle that's disposed of immediately after.

Medical-Grade Jewelry

We use implant-grade titanium and surgical steel jewelry that's safe for fresh piercings.

Licensed & Insured

Our piercers are trained professionals who follow all Arizona state requirements.

Piercing Pricing & FAQ

Have questions about getting pierced at Stranded Ink? Here are answers to the most common questions we receive.

How much do piercings cost?

Piercing prices vary depending on the type and location. Basic ear lobe piercings start at a lower price point, while cartilage, facial, and body piercings are priced higher due to complexity. All piercings include high-quality starter jewelry. Call us at (928) 318-2729 for current pricing.

Do I need an appointment for piercings?

Yes, piercings at Stranded Ink are by appointment only. This ensures our piercer has dedicated time for your service and can properly prepare. Appointments are primarily available on Saturdays, with some weekday availability. Call ahead to schedule your piercing.

What's the minimum age for piercings?

Minors can get certain piercings with a parent or legal guardian present. The guardian must provide valid ID and sign a consent form. Age restrictions vary by piercing type—ear lobes have lower age requirements than facial or body piercings. Call to confirm age requirements for your specific piercing.

How long does a piercing take to heal?

Healing times vary by piercing location. Ear lobes typically heal in 6-8 weeks, while cartilage piercings take 4-12 months. Nose piercings heal in 2-4 months, and navel piercings can take 6-12 months. Following proper aftercare significantly impacts healing time.

Does getting pierced hurt?

Most clients describe the sensation as a quick pinch lasting only a second or two. Pain levels vary by piercing location and individual tolerance. Kim's skilled technique and calm demeanor help minimize discomfort. Many clients are surprised by how quick and easy the process is!

Can I bring my own jewelry?

For fresh piercings, we require using our implant-grade starter jewelry to ensure proper healing. However, once your piercing is fully healed, you can change to your own jewelry. We're also happy to help you change jewelry if you're unsure how to do it safely.

What should I do before my piercing appointment?

Eat a good meal beforehand to keep your blood sugar stable—this helps prevent dizziness. Stay hydrated, get a good night's sleep, and avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment. Bring valid ID if you're a minor with a guardian. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the piercing area.

Do you use piercing guns?

No, we never use piercing guns. We exclusively use sterile, single-use piercing needles. Needles create cleaner piercings with less tissue trauma, resulting in faster healing and reduced infection risk. This is the professional standard in the piercing industry.
