1. Find a reputable vendor. This will eliminate scams and ensure the quality of the supply inventory. Check with the BBB or a piercing regulation committee to check up on a piercing supplier before using them.
2. Use wholesalers. Wholesalers are generally able to sell body piercing supplies at a discount or a lower markup. Check the same resources as in Step 1 for these suppliers.
3. Buy in bulk. The more items purchased the bigger the discounts and savings. The standard body piercing supplies are needles which come in various sizes; piercing tapers to stretch the pierced area; piercing clips to hold the skin in place during piercing; needle pushers that force the needle through the skin; receiving tubes to keep the site open to insert jewelry; needle containers to hold used needles and corks to stop and receive needles. Forceps and pliers may be used as well.
4. Sell decorative body piercing jewelry. Body jewelry comes in a wide range of styles, something to satisfy anyone's taste. There is jewelry available for the nose, eye lids, tongue, navel, ears and intimate body parts. The jewelry can be purchased in steel, gold and sterling silver.
5. Keep hygiene in mind. Purchase alcohol prep pads to sanitize all your piercing supplies after every use and iodine pads or swabs to clean the incision area before performing the piercing. Tattoos and body piercing shops must adhere to strict sanitation health codes, using sanitizing agents to kill bacteria,
