If you’re reading this then you probably just got your snake eyes piercing. Or maybe you’re thinking about getting one and want to know a little more about the cleaning process. Either way welcome! In this blog post we’ll be discussing how to clean snake eyes piercing both when you first get it done and on a regular basis.
When you first get your piercing it’s important to clean it several times a day. Your piercer will likely give you a saline solution to clean it with but you can also make your own by mixing 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized sea salt with 8 ounces of distilled water. Soak a cotton ball in the solution and then gently clean the piercing and the surrounding area with it. Be sure to rinse well afterwards.
It’s also important to avoid touching your piercing with dirty hands as this can introduce bacteria and cause an infection. And if you do happen to touch it be sure to wash your hands thoroughly afterwards.
In the first few weeks it’s also important to avoid submerging your piercing in water as this can also introduce bacteria and cause an infection. So no swimming hot tubs or baths until it’s fully healed!
After the first few weeks you can start cleaning your piercing with a gentle antibacterial soap. Be sure to rinse it well afterwards. And as always avoid touching it with dirty hands.
On a regular basis you should also be sure to clean your piercing jewelry. Soak it in a solution of 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized sea salt with 8 ounces of distilled water for 10 minutes then gently clean it with a soft toothbrush. Rinse well afterwards.
