The Art of a Great Piercing

The curated ear trend is everywhere right now, but getting it right is so important. When actor Mya Jansen Van Rensburg visited Body Piercing Company for her third lobe piercings, Ben’s skill and reassuring approach made the experience feel polished from start to finish.

A well-done piercing can elevate your whole look, but the skill behind it makes all the difference. When actor Mya Jansen Van Rensburg visited Body Piercing Company for her third lobe piercings, Ben’s expert approach stood out from the start.

From the moment we arrived at Ben’s private studio in Tandragee, the experience felt calm, considered and highly professional. The studio setting immediately gave the sense that this was not a rushed or casual piercing appointment. It felt much more personal and much more precise.

That is down to Ben himself. From the outset, it was obvious that this is someone who takes his craft seriously. He is not simply “doing piercings” — he approaches the whole process with the care and eye of someone who understands that placement, symmetry and jewellery choice can make all the difference between something that looks stylish and something that ends up regrettable.

For Mya, who would naturally be on the nervous side, that made a huge difference.

Ben immediately put her at ease and took plenty of time talking through exactly what she wanted. The appointment felt collaborative from the start.

He discussed positioning carefully, looking at the shape of her ear and where the new piercings would sit best. He also showed her a range of jewellery options and let her choose what suited her style, opting for a dainty stud for her third piercing.

Unlike many places that still use piercing guns, Ben pierces with a needle — something he is passionate about for very good reason. Needle piercing is far more precise, less traumatic to the tissue and, when done by an expert, can be significantly more comfortable than people expect.

In short, it is the difference between a proper professional service and a quick-fix approach.

Mya has had piercings before and described those experiences as much more painful. This time, she barely flinched.

Ben simply talked her through it, kept her relaxed and carried out the piercing quickly and expertly. The result was two beautifully placed piercings that looked elegant straight away and, importantly, felt far less painful than she had expected.

Ben clearly knows exactly what he is doing, and that reassurance is a huge part of why the appointment felt so positive. When someone is nervous, especially a younger client, the manner of the person doing the piercing matters just as much as the technical skill. Ben has both.

After the piercing, he talked Mya through aftercare in detail and provided sterile cleaning solution, making sure she left with everything she needed for smooth healing. It was all very clear, very professional and exactly what you would hope for from someone working to such a high standard.

What also stood out was Ben’s honesty about the wider industry. He explained that he spends a lot of time correcting problems caused by poor piercings elsewhere — badly placed piercings, irritation, infection, scar tissue and jewellery choices that simply were not right for healing.

A good piercing can look effortless, polished and stylish. A bad one can cause discomfort, complications and a result that never quite looks right.

That is why Ben’s expertise matters. If you are considering a piercing, whether it is a first lobe, a cartilage placement or building a more curated look, this experience was a reminder that it is worth going to someone who genuinely understands the craft.

Mya left delighted with her new piercings. They look gorgeous and suit her perfectly.

If you are thinking about getting pierced, Body Piercing Company shows just how much of a difference real expertise can make. With Ben, the experience feels personal from the moment you walk in.
