DO YOU GUYS USE A PIERCERING GUN?
ABSOLUTLY NOT!! IT IS DISGUSTING AND DANGEROUS!
"Piercing guns can cause significant tissue damage.
Medically, this is referred to as “blunt force trauma.” At the least, it can result in significant pain and swelling for the client, at the most in scarring and potentially increased incidence of auricular chondritis, a severe tissue disfigurement." -- APP
