We offer a large selection of BVLA solid gold and platinum jewelry, all manufactured ethically in California, as well as implant grade titanium options from other California based manufacturers.

At Hummingbird, we adhere to the highest industry standards for safety and quality. Our piercers have many years of piercing experience and have undergone rigorous training to uphold the standards that we work at. We never use piercing guns, as they can cause unnecessary trauma to the tissue and increase the risk of complications. Instead, we use sterile, single-use needles for every piercing to ensure precision and minimize discomfort. We use sterile gloves for each piercing (most studios will just use exam gloves to pierce with, which are not meant to touch sterile implements before introducing them to an open wound). Our piercing process is conducted in a meticulously clean environment, and we exclusively use internally threaded or threadless jewelry made from implant-grade titanium, or solid gold. Our team of experienced piercers are extensively trained in aseptic technique, sterile glove technique, yearly blood born pathogens training, following all local and industry guidelines to provide you with a safe and luxurious experience.

Absolutely! Every client receives detailed aftercare instructions tailored to their specific piercing. We also offer follow-up consultations to ensure proper healing and address any concerns you may have during the process.

For safety and liability reasons, we do not accept outside jewelry for piercings, or jewelry installs. At Enigma Studios, we exclusively use jewelry from our carefully curated collection to ensure it meets our rigorous standards for quality, safety, and sterilization. All of our jewelry is made from implant-grade materials and is specifically designed for safe and effective healing. This policy ensures the best possible experience and outcome for every client.

The short answer to this; health codes. The reason why we ask clients to refrain from touching their jewelry or piercings in the studio is to keep all surfaces as clean as possible and our clients as safe as possible. Even a healed piercing secretes a small amount of oil and can contain bacteria. At Hummingbird we are constantly disinfecting our surfaces. However, we ask you to refrain from touching your piercings or removing your jewelry while inside the studio. We promise we have your health and safety in mind and are in no way trying to offend when we ask this.
