In this spinning, staggering world where people paint their stories on the canvas of their skin, piercings are like punctuations – little jabs that say, “I’m here, I’m real.” They’re more than just metal through flesh; they’re badges of pain, pleasure, and everything in between.
Let’s take a walk through the crowded streets of piercings, each type a different character in the human carnival in our A-Z Guide to The Types of Body Piercings.
In the rugged, smoke-filled reality of life, where every street corner presents a new drama, and every face tells a story of joy, despair, or indifference, we find ourselves occasionally seeking a mark, a symbol – a piercing. It’s like a silent shout into the void, declaring, “Here I am.” But once the needle has done its dance, and the metal sits snug in your skin, the real show begins. The aftercare, the unglamorous but crucial routine, especially the f*ing cleanliness.
At Apollo, we prioritize meticulous aftercare, providing you with everything you need to safeguard your one-of-a-kind body art. For a detailed guide on maintaining your piercing, visit our Aftercare Page.
