Surface piercing seminar @ Black Lotus Tattoo

This Memorial day weekend I attended Luis Garcia’s surface piercing seminar which was held at Black Lotus Tattoo in Baltimore, Maryland. I sat in on Luis’s surface piercing class at APP conference and this was a longer, more hands on seminar. I got to watch him perform a couple of surface piercings as well as […]

It seems like only yesterday, but in fact it was 12 years ago that I was sitting at work scrolling through ringsofdesire.com. I remember a section where Elayne Angel recommended piercers. She couldn’t suggest anyone from New York City because at the time, no one was a member of the Association of Professional Piercers. I […]

I performed this conch piercing close to 10 years ago. I had the pleasure of upgrading the jewelry to this pear shaped milgrain end featuring a white opal setting from Body Gems. We have a large selection of gold body jewelry in stock from America’s top countries. Stop in to Bound for Glory and check […]

The daith is one of the reasons I became interested in performing piercings. It’s such a fun piercing to do and always looks amazing. This client chose a beautiful septum clicker featuring white opal settings from Industrial Strength. Because of a few recent publications, there have been a lot of people coming in lately expecting […]

I am super happy to finally have my certificate from the APP conference that I attended back in June. The certificate serves as a reminder of such a pivotal week in my career. Makes me smile looking at it remembering my time with the rest of the volunteers (love you guys!). I took 14 classes […]

We are all out of their flower clusters already (expect those back in around 3 weeks from now).  We still have some beautiful cabochon settings and trinity clusters. Plenty of posts in stock.  We hope to […]

Last weekend I decided it was time to retake my bloodborne pathogens exam. It was set to expire on the 22nd of this month. I sat through 2 hours of videos and got a perfect score on the exam.  Next year I will have to retake both BBP and First AID.

Excited to finally have a small collection of their gold body jewelry. Just a couple pieces for now but we have a bunch of gold on its way to the shop next month!  We had a couple of these threaded ends pegged for medusa/philtrum piercings but we would also love to see them in ear […]

This client came in and wanted something fancy and different.  After looking through our collection of high quality piercing jewelry she chose these threaded ends from Anatometal.  One flower cluster featuring a white Swarovski crystal and blue opal settings and one blue opal bezel setting anodized ice blue.  She decided on a snug piercing but […]
