Processing time to hand make your order for most items varies throughout the year. You can view individual estimations for each item. Solid gold and similar high end metals may take longer.

Processing time does not include shipping time.

Once in the hands of USPS I do not usually check on orders. Please contact the shipping carrier directly if you would like up to date notifications bout your package. You can view the status of your order by visiting your ‘Purchases’ in your account and clicking on the “Track Package” button. You can contact Etsy or myself for help with this if you need it.

Each order is in gift condition and comes in a sealed pouch. Most orders come with a free gift box. You can include a personalized gift message for free! 😄

My packaging processes are 100% dork-proof for even the worst handler to ensure your jewelry gets to you in pristine condition. I ship all body jewelry in a sealed pouch inside a padded envelope.

If you have any issues when you receive your jewelry or have questions about gifts, please contact me.

Giving your body jewelry regular and proper cleaning will keep your jewelry looking bright and long lasting. Every order comes with cleaning instructions.

Wash your hands before touching your piercings and body jewelry. Use a clean cloth underneath so you don't lose any pieces. Clean everything thoroughly before inserting any jewelry into your body.

Metal, glass, and acrylic pieces clean well with antibacterial soapy water. Soak your jewelry in a small container filled with the solution. For gemstone or wood elements use hypoallergenic oil on a toothbrush or jewelry cloth to clean dirt.

Do not use rubbing alcohol to sanitize or clean. This can cause your jewelry to discolor, smell bad, build up residue, and damage your skin.

Each item's description details the type of metal(s) used for piercings as well as any other materials that are outside the piercing. Please message me if you have any questions about materials.

If you find something you love, but can't wear because of a metal allergy, let me know! I'll work with you to make something you can safely and happily wear. I excel at this.

Most orders are currently being made about 1 week. Solid gold and similar metals may take longer. Business days are Mon-Fri. International may take 2-4 months or longer.

Tracking is free with every order.

Please make sure the address on your order is correct. Once I have mailed your order I am unable to make changes.

Once an item shows "Delivered" I cannot refund or replace. If nothing shows up, please contact your local post office. You can also ask neighbors to see if they have it or wait a few more days if usps marks it delivered prematurely.

International orders are not replaceable once they have arrived in that country. Please contact your local postal service.

Please be aware of the size you need when ordering. If you aren't sure please visit your local piercer before ordering! Most items are available in a variety of sizes and customizable for a perfect fit. Please read a product's description for information on specific measurements or ask me.

Most orders come with easy to read guidlines to help you wear your jewelry safely and correctly. If you have any questions about how to wear something please ask me. You are responsible for using the jewelry you correctly. There are no refunds, cancellations, or exchanges from incorrect use.

Gold fill may tarnish with chemical use by after wearing. Using natural skin and hair products will help prevent this. Every body is different and the majority never experience any tarnishing. Customers are responsible for cleaning jewelry as needed to get rid of any tarnish after wearing.

GAUGE refers to the size of your piercing hole. It’s measured by how thick the metal is. In body jewelry, lower numbers have a thicker gauge. Larger numbers have thinner gauges. For example, 14g is a thick gauge. 20g is a larger number, but thinner. 10g is a smaller number, but even thicker than 14g! The smaller the number, the thicker the gauge is. Conversely, the larger the number the thinner the gauge is.

INNER DIAMETER: Used for measuring rings, circular barbells, & hoop shapes. The inner diameter is measured as the distance across the inside.

INNER LENGTH: Used for measuring straight barbells and straight shapes. The inner length is measured on the inside part of the barbell from one end to the other end (without the balls).

316L STAINLESS STEEL is commonly called Surgical Steel by the public. 316L is a specific grade of surgical steel that is safe for healed body piercings. 316LVM is implant grade used for new piercings. It is important to purchase hand made surgical steel jewelry that uses the professional and correct description of 316L stainless steel and correct finishing. I use a mirror finishing, which is ASTM compliant. There are many grades of stainless steel from other sources with a wide variety of uses and not all of them are compatible for body piercings. I only use what is safe for piercings.
