Needle Control + Workshop – Thu. 11am-12:30pm on Stage

“Needle control” refers to the precise manipulation and handling of piercing needles during the piercing process. This class focuses on teaching participants how to confidently control the needle’s movement for accurate and controlled piercings, minimizing discomfort for the client. The “workshop” aspect implies that attendees will have the opportunity to engage in practical exercises to improve their needle control skills, potentially using simulators or safe training materials.

Needle Bending & Modification – Thu. 7pm-8:30pm
Needles with Ruben and Brian

This class will be centered around modifying piercing needles to suit specific piercing situations. Needle bending and modification involves altering the angle or shape or the needle tip to accommodate different piercing placements, anatomies, or jewelry styles. This skill can be especially valuable for piercers who encounter unique client needs or want to offer more specialized piercing services.

Needle Blanks Tips & Tricks Fri. 9am-10:30am

What is a needle blank? The use of needle blanks in disposable piercing technique, how to make tools with them.

Needle blanks are an essential component in the field of body piercing. They are clean, deburred and precisely sized needle tubing without a sharp point, typically made from high-quality stainless steel. These blanks serve as the foundation for creating various types of piercing needles. They play a crucial role in a single use/disposable piercing technique.

The single use/disposable piercing technique has gained popularity due to its emphasis on hygiene and reducing the risk of cross-contamination. In this technique, piercers use sterilized single-use needles and tools, eliminating the need for reprocessing. The needle blanks can come into play in this process, as they allow piercers to customize and create piercing devices to suit different types of piercings, ensuring a more comfortable and accurate piercing experience for the client.
