Hey hey people!

Does anyone happen to live in the Cheltenham/Gloucestershire (UK)area, that can recommend a top notch piercer, please?

Thanks...

I'm not from the UK but here's a directory from a forum I get on that might help you: http://www.bodyjewelleryshop.com/piercing_directory/

Here's some info from the Association of Professional Piercers about what to look for in a piercer. It's based in the US but this still applies: http://www.safepiercing.org/piercing/ch ... a-piercer/

Good luck! Choosing a good piercer is super important. The piercer I go to now (who is now the only person I'll let pierce me) is amazing but I've also been to some really crappy shops and I can tell you that the difference is unbelievable.

Try No Regrets at the top of the high street.
Depends what you're after though. Some (rarer) things are always gonna be worth travelling for.

Thanks for this - really useful.

I am after a piercer to do my septum. I had my lobes done in there and they used acrylic in a fresh piercing which I hear is a massive no-no. I've had massive problems including more than one infection whilst the new piercings healed. Not saying it was them at all, but once bitten and all that...

....really? Sounds unusual for them...
Who did that?

Ah, a gentleman never kisses and tells... I ain't no gentleman, but I'm not really comfortable naming and shaming...

Sorry dude.
