Thinking about getting a new piercing? Whether it’s your first lobe piercing or a curated ear stack, choosing the right piercing studio is the most important step.

A safe, professional studio not only ensures your piercing looks amazing — it also protects you from unnecessary pain, infection, and poor healing.

If you’re searching for the best piercing studio in Worthing, here’s exactly what to look for before you book your appointment.

Clean and professional piercing studio in Worthing West Sussex by Rachel Jade.

🧼 1. Hygiene and Safety Standards Come First

The number one rule: a piercing studio should always be clean, calm, and professional.

When you walk in, check for:

A sterilisation area or equipment visible in the workspace
Gloves, single-use needles, and disposable tools
Proper waste bins for sharps and contaminated materials
Surfaces that are sanitised between clients

At by Rachel Jade in Worthing, I follow strict hygiene protocols for every piercing — including sterile, single-use needles, and medical-grade disinfectants. Your safety always comes first.

💎 2. Ask About the Jewellery Used

High-quality jewellery is crucial for healing. Avoid studios that use mystery metals or “fashion” jewellery right after piercing — these can cause allergic reactions or prolonged irritation.

For a smooth healing process, look for:

Implant-grade titanium (hypoallergenic and safe for all skin types)
14k or 18k gold for long-term wear
Internally threaded jewellery for a secure, smooth fit

At by Rachel Jade, I only use implant-grade titanium and solid gold pieces, so you can heal comfortably and look incredible from day one.

👩‍⚕️ 3. Experience and Professionalism Matter

Don’t be afraid to ask your piercer about their qualifications, training, and experience. A good piercer should happily explain their process and answer any questions you have.

Read through reviews, check client photos, and look for consistent, clean results — not just pretty jewellery.

If you’re in West Sussex, visiting a safe piercing studio like by Rachel Jade means you’ll always be treated by someone with years of experience, a steady hand, and a real passion for making clients feel confident.

📸 4. Check Out Their Portfolio

A piercer’s work should speak for itself.Before booking, browse their social media or website for examples of:

Healed piercings (not just fresh ones)
Consistent symmetry
Good jewellery placement

You’ll be able to spot the difference between rushed work and precise artistry instantly.

🌸 5. The Vibe Should Feel Right

The energy of a studio is just as important as the technical side. You should feel welcomed, comfortable, and unpressured to rush into a decision.

At by Rachel Jade, I take time to make each client feel relaxed — whether it’s your first piercing or your tenth. Every session is calm, friendly, and focused entirely on you.
