This is just a quick post to mention a couple of things. We now offer numbing on some piercings, although our stance is still that it is unnecessary, and not only complicates but generally works counter-intuitively in the majority of cases, e.g. making the piercing more painful.

Still, a high recent volume of people asking for numbing has made us reconsider our policy, as at the end of the day the client should have a say in the procedure. We will keep discussing the pros and cons of using various anaesthetics when you come in.

Oh, and here’s our new facebook group where we run special promotions not open to the general public. Sign up, and get cheap piercings every now and then!

Other than that, our new aftercare pamphlets are finally in stock, so come pick one up if you are interested in having a piercing.

Peace, Alex

Gift vouchers are available as always, and through November we will run a promotion where Christmas gift-vouchers will get 10% knocked off the price, i.e. a gift certificate for a £35 navel piercing will cost you £31.50..

Furthermore, we are introducing Price-matching.
If you can find the equivalent service/product locally (Southport area) for a lower price, and you can give us evidence of this, we will match that price. Please be aware this does not mean we will match any hair salons’ price for ear-piercing. This is because any gun-piercing is far inferior to a needle-piercing; and both equipment and jewellery costs a lot more done the professional way.

As usual we welcome consultations for both old and new customers, and hope you have a great November!

P.S. Going through photos from the past few monhs, it has become clear to me that we need to get better at taking portfolio pictures again. A few dermal anchors and such uploaded today anyways..

Through October 2009 we will celebrate having ran Body Mech for six years, and have decided to show our appreciation to our customers with discounts ranging from 10 to 20% OFF on EVERYTHING we sell; including jewellery, contacts, and of course piercings !!! If you come in as a group for piercing, or spend a lot, please inquire as to the possibility of getting even further discounts, as this is a definite possibility..

Spread the word to all your friends, and we hope to see you sometime in October!

- Al & Bex

P.S. – As we anticipate a much higher level of traffic this month, booking in in advance is the safest option if you know the time you want your piercing..

Happy October!

It was time to do an image update, so we have added some new portfolio shots to our flickr pages, and as soon as I understand the new changes to wordpress (the client we use for this blog), I will put up an example or two on here. In the meantime, navigate to our flickr pages for some hot stuff..
In the meantime, have a great summer ya’ll!

We seem to be doing a lot of microdermals and surface piercings recently, a trend that I can see growing incrementally. We’ll see if I am wrong or right on that one soon enough.

One of the things we are changing soon is the shop front, as it looks a little ‘quiet’ when shut. Added for your viewing pleasure is the two initial sketches done today. They are to be stenciled up on a huge scale and sprayed on our shutters in time, if you got any opinions or critiques, feel free to voice them.

- Alex

P.S. A couple of new microdermal photos are up on our flickr – which I have been told is now a restricted account, trying to figure out if that will have any impact on you viewing our portfolio or not..
