I use saltwater to clean my piercings
the expensive piercing cleaning stuff you can get after getting pierced is basically just salt water !
i stopped purchasing to not also save money but because one day i was out of my usual cleaner and had make shift 😭
I haven’t stopped since it does the same justice.
i also use it when my piercings are irritated and almost the very next day the annoying “bump” is gone !
I don’t have specific measurements i juss get a cup of water and put some salt in it and put it in the microwave for a few seconds 🤍.
it’s kept my piercings clean and helped with any kind of infections that have occurred .
but most importantly to avoid infection just leave your piercing be , dont play with it and keep touching it ! 🚫
and just consistently clean it 2-3 times a day until fully healed !
Using saltwater for piercing aftercare not only saves you money but also provides effective healing benefits. Saltwater acts as a natural disinfectant, which can help reduce irritation and promote faster healing. To create your own saline solution, simply mix non-iodized salt with warm water. This mixture helps to cleanse the piercing site and can alleviate issues like bumps and infections. Consistency is key; clean your piercings 2-3 times daily until they are fully healed. Avoid touching or playing with your piercings, as this can introduce bacteria and lead to complications. In addition to saline solutions, ensure your hands are clean before cleaning your piercings. If irritation persists, consider consulting a professional piercer or a healthcare provider for personalized advice. Remember, proper piercing care is essential for long-lasting results!
