What is
or Indian Piercing?
The Indian piercing became super fashionable in 2015, when the septum piercing became a trend again! It is all crafted, often with stones and arabesques. Reminds me of a boho/hippie style and there's no denying that its delicate details make all the difference in the jewel! Despite being much more common in the septum, the Indian piercing has become so popular that some people use it in holes in other parts of the body, such as the nostril, smile and ear.
Basic care
Every piercing or body modification needs special care, since, in the absence of these, the risk of getting inflamed is very high. And if it ignites, you already know, right? - Goodbye, piercing! – If you are not going to opt for a fake Indian piercing, then it is always important to remember the necessary care for your newly pierced piercing.
First of all, choose a good professional (for any body modification make sure you are doing it with someone who understands the subject very well).
Some general precautions include not eating anything too greasy and cleaning the area three times a day, in addition to avoiding alcoholic beverages, excessive sun, pool, sea and long baths. It is also important not to touch the piercing (especially with dirty hands) and be careful when drying with a towel or putting on t-shirts so that it does not get caught in the piercing. Also avoid using makeup in the region or nearby, as the substances can be harmful to your 'wound'.
N o t a : Each professional indicates a series of care that they consider best, always follow the one your recommend!
Do this to prevent your piercing from getting inflamed and causing further complications. In some cases it is necessary to remove the piercing and all that work you had, money you spent and pain you went through, unfortunately, will have been in vain. So take good care of your piercing!
Where
Purchase?
Want to buy an Indian piercing? I separated for you the best online stores for you to buy yours!
Elephant
Price – BRL 89
Piercing Models – True & False
This is by far my favorite store! The value of the piercings is very high, because they are imported from India and made by hand. The models are all beautiful and super delicate! It is worth remembering that they were made as 'decorative' jewelry, that is, they cannot be used daily (in India they are only used on festive days).

How to make
1. Choose the hoop in the size and color you prefer (you can buy those little kits with several hoops of different sizes, so it's easier for you to choose later)
2. Open the ring with the pliers
3. Take the ends of the hoop and line them up (be careful not to remove the rounded bottom part)
4. Bend one of the ends outwards, leaving it round (this gives the piercing a nicer detail and also doesn't hurt when putting it on)

Photos and Models
Indian Piercing
Sept
This is the most common place on the body to wear an Indian piercing and one of the prettiest, in my opinion! If you want to get your septum pierced, it's important to remember that whether it looks good or not will depend on both the jewelry and the shape and size of your nose. So ask your body piercer for an opinion, he'll know what suits you best!
O b s : Another good tip is to try it out with a fake piercing and see what you think before piercing!
Nostril
The nostril is also a really cool place to wear an Indian piercing, as the jewel details give your nose an extra charm!
Smile
Of all those commented on the post, it is the most unusual place to use this type of piercing. But nothing stops you from using it and drawing even more attention to your smile!
O b s : Try to give preference to jewelry of smaller sizes
Ear
The ear is a place on the body where you can use a huge variety of piercings! The Indian piercing is beautiful in the ear, especially as an earring and as a daith piercing.
False
It became as popular as the real thing and it's wonderful to use from time to time or to make sure you want to pierce!
Well, that's it, people!
