How do I care for my new needle piercing?Updated 19 days ago
Here is the aftercare regimen recommended by our licensed nurses for Rowan needle piercings.
Always wash your hands -Llimit touching your ears only when cleaning. Wash your hands before touching your earrings.
Spray your piercing - Use our aftercare solution 2-3 times a day, front and back while your piercing is healing.
Leave space - There should be space between your ear and the front and back of the jewelry. If there’s none, return to the studio for an evaluation.
Disinfect - Clean anything that goes in, on, or around your ears (i.e., earbuds, headphones, cell phones, and glasses).
Rinse and repeat - Rinse your piercing in the shower when using hair products
Hypoallergenic earrings only - Wear consistently for one year to prevent your piercing from closing. Shop hypoallergenic earrings at heyrowan.com
Come back in 30 days - Check-in with our nurses and they'll let you know if your post needs to be downsized.
