Sterility is not a marketing word here
Every piercer here is certified through a bloodborne pathogens course, renewed yearly, and every instrument that touches skin is single-use or run through the same autoclave a dental office uses.
We only stock implant-grade titanium and niobium, the same standard used for surgical implants. It costs more than the steel sold at a mall kiosk, and it is the single biggest reason a piercing heals cleanly or does not.
Anyone under eighteen needs a parent or legal guardian present for the entire appointment, with a government photo ID for both of you. We turn walk-ins away without it - this is not a judgment call we make at the counter.
