Some microdermals. Some photographed fresh & some set in.
I’ll be honest, I’m very picky on who and where I will set a dermal into. I refuse to place them on the lower back/hips/hands/ and I barely enjoy placing in the chest. I have to make sure you are 10000000% committed to following proper aftercare instructions and actively listening to how I cannot stress enough how YOU NEED to be consciously aware of them, initially AND even when they’ve been set in for months. Just like any other piercing you can irritate it if you forget about it and aren’t cleaning it. We all know what dead skin cells smell like, do not treat your dermal like you don’t need to clean it. 😭 stop breaking my heart
Some of my favorite pierced eyebrows I should’ve posted sooner but if I did that… I wouldn’t have this opportunity to dump it all on you at once.
1: I pierced their eyebrow + vampire bites/angel fangs/upper vertical labrets. I also bonded on those rad tooth gems 🤪
2: I pierced the septum, nostril, and eyebrow
3: I also pierced their septum & eyebrow
4: Paired central eyebrow piercings 😍 (I can’t remember if I pierced their vertical labret)
5: They let me anodize it to gold, and we’ve also done a few other piercings together I’m just brain farting on which ones 🥹
10: I did pierce both of their eyebrows, at separate times, as you can see the pictured left is freshhhh. I also set that microdermal in. 😍
Hey hi hello! 👋
I think it’s time I reintroduce myself because you all seem to just call me, “the piercer girl” but I do, in fact, actually have a name, booooooo, yeah I know!
As it is in my Instagram handle, my name is Serena, I’m 29 years old, my birthday is the Fourth of July 🦅🇺🇸 I began my body piercing career in 2019, I started based in Sacramento, and have been the sole body piercer at @lighthousetattooclub since 2021. 😄 I know my hair has gone through several changes but it’s still me. Most people get confused by my listing of pronouns on my bio, it basically means you can call me girl, dude, man, boy, sis, bro/bruv, I simply don’t care whether you think I’m a girl or a guy, just don’t you ever dare call me outside of my name. I’m a big time animal lover, also fond of the critters, and the creepy crawlies. I think opossums and tarantulas are very very very cute, I LOVE funky socks, and live music to be extra silly with my “dancing.”
I always find it so surreal that I get to help decorate people of all ages; it’s wild that I get to be the one to remind you that I’m here for you, that we will get through this together, from initial piercing to a healed canal, and to remember to breathe! 🥰
I can’t wait to see you all, come on in, any time from Tuesday - Saturday 11:30am-6:30pm. Stop in and say hi even if you don’t want a piercing. 😁 (last pic is me at 16 lol)
Starting this week off strong with this gorgeous cluster in her healed conch, I didn’t pierce it originally.
I’m so happy you love gold and let me anodize these titanium pieces for you 🥹😍😍😍
I’m super late about sharing my first ever APP, @safepiercing conference, so here I go!
I was chosen as one of twenty(?) piercers/enthusiasts/apprentices to be able to attend this year’s conference through the Alicia Cardenas Keep Moving Forward scholarship, and I can’t even begin to express how much gratitude paired with absolute luck that I feel to be awarded this incredible opportunity. 😭
I was SO incredibly nervous and it subsided rather quickly once I realized everyone there was so absolutely welcoming and kind! People who have hundreds and thousands of followers didn’t make me feel small or like an imposter; it was the exact opposite of elitism that I was engrained with like when I first started my journey.
Being able to pick the brains of professionals who have been in the industry for over 10-25 years was wildly inspiring, even those starting their apprenticeships or are within their first few years -/ well. This conference made me fall back in love with body piercing, self expression, and all the beautiful jewelry that’s crafted with the most bad ass intent.
I just wanna thank everyone at the APP for striving to keep body piercings safe, healthy, and expressive. Seriously, thank you for keeping us educated, reminding us the importance of safety, and allowing us all to be able to feel like a real community. I can’t wait to go back again!! 🥰
Also!!! See you all tomorrow! I promise I won’t be going on anymore trips until October. 😅 I was super serious about being outside this year and okay, I really miss piercing you all!
No body piercing availability July 11-17th! I’ll be here today, 07/09, and tomorrow, 07/10 this week. If you see me at @sadsummerfest, at The Backyard in Arden Sacramento on Thursday 07/11, don’t be shy & say hiiii!!! Otherwise I’ll be back for body piercings/jewelry changes Thursday 07/18! 🫶🏼
Adorned these second set lobes with a 2mm threadless titanium disc. 😍🥰
I’ll be back on July 2nd to see you all again. Feel free to stop in anytime and purchase @neilmedpiercingaftercare mist or jewelry!
I can’t stop thinking about how perfect @llostmytouchh heals up their piercings 🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 dahlias are downsized and happy and I… AM IN LOVE!!!
Just a reminder!!! I will not be available for body piercings June 23-29th! Feel free to stop in and purchase jewelry or get some more @neilmedpiercingaftercare mist any time though! 🫶🏼 I can’t wait to tell you all about the conference when I finally come back!!!
😊 an eyebrow piercing.
I won’t be available for any body piercings as I’m attending this year’s @safepiercing seminar in Vegas from June 23-29th. Come in while I’m heeereeee.
@jacobc4rter let me turn these spiderbites into SHARK BITES 🦈😍😍
I actually wanted shark bites in high school but I settled for spiderbites in my teen years. 🤭
With every single piercing and especially intraoral piercings it’s SO SO SO important to get pierced with long enough labrets to allow for swelling. Once your initial swelling goes away it’s just as, if not MORE important to come back and DOWNSIZE YOUR LABRETS to prevent: possible gum erosion, chipped/broken teeth, irritation bumps from excessive jewelry length!!!!
Short labrets coming back in stock next week! Thank you for your patience, I did not forget about you!
It’s been a wonderful week 🥰 I hope you’re all having the same kind! Did you see the Aurora Borealis last night?!?!???
I know I’m awful at posting regularly but hi, I’m still here slinging piercings and hopefully you’re loving it. 😊 tomorrow is Mother’s Day so happy Mother’s Day to all the bad ass Moms who kick ass at loving their kids wholeheartedly. We recognize you everyday but tomorrow, exceptionally more. 💛
Sorry for any inconveniences today but I won’t be in the shop, until tomorrow. 🫶🏼
Hi! So! This has been a way long, awaited list that I should’ve posted forever ago. 😅
Every body piercer has their own prerogative when it comes to what they’re comfortable with piercing, who they are piercing, and what they are piercing with. As much as it sucks to turn you away with what I deem as age appropriate for piercings, I’m going to stick with it for my own morality’s sake. I know we are in a time where we want to be very accepting of: personal choices and self expression, after all, that’s what this field is all about, these are my ethics. Getting upset and yelling at me for not wanting to do dermals on your 15 year old’s lower back, even if you’re a “consenting parent/legal guardian”, including that you didn’t bring any form of documentation, isn’t going to change my mind. Attempting to guilt trip me or trying to point blame on the shop manager for not being fully aware of the piercing side isn’t their fault, they’re not my apprentice.
🥹 one of the 14kt gold bees finally went to a good home.
Three left, please someone PLEASE LET ME PUT IT IN YOUR HIGH NOSTRILS
@invictus_bodyjewelry 😍😍😍😍
Paired nostril fun. 🤩 I still exist here at the shop, by the way. Tuesday to Saturday 11/11:30am-6:30pm. I’m here, for you, patiently waiting. Yearning to pierce.
I really really really really wanna do high nostrils on someone with the 14kt gold bees from @invictus_bodyjewelry. It won’t be the cheapest jewelry to purchase but I can assure you: it would be worth it, I would give it to you at a special rate, and you’ll make me the happiest goober in the world. You just have to come in and commit to letting me adorn your cute face with some cute bees. 😭🐝
I’ve never been more excited and nervous than to pierce and insert all these gorgeous 14kt gold pieces from @invictus_bodyjewelry 😭
Thank you @birthrightbeautybar so much for your trust in allowing me to repierce your Medusa (previously done elsewhere) and pair your right nostril (pictured left) to your existing nostril piercing. This was truly the highlight of my day and you look absolutely phenomenal. 🥹
Cute double flat addition to compliment her cute anatomy. Thanks for coming back @caeleigh_thatcher
Heads up for tomorrow, March 29, I’ll be leaving the shop a bit early to catch a show I’m super excited for. So I’ll be here tomorrow until 4:30pm!
In case you didn’t know already…
No, your camera roll photos are not viable either just because your voice gets louder. Most students now have an online portal with a yearbook photo attached and more commonly have the SmileSafe/in case of emergency child abduction cards. Passports are also viable. 🙂
The gems are honestly so shiny and bright I couldn’t even get a good photo 🥹🥹🥹😍
@invictus_bodyjewelry three crystal dangle thread less titanium top in a helix I unfortunately didn’t get to pierce. I’m still in love with this though
