We offer a wide range of piercings at The Body Bar! All piercings are performed under sterile, sanitary conditions by licensed piercing professionals
Located in Greenbrier Mall in Chesapeake, Virginia, on the second floor, nearest to Dillards, The Body Bar is a full-service piercing studio and body jewelry retailer.
We pride ourselves on creating a calm, relaxing, spa-like environment, while maintaining and executing STRICT sterilization standards and practices. Every piece of equipment (clamps and receiving tubes) goes through an ultrasonic cleaner (a machine that uses ultrasound to remove microscopic debris from the small crevices,) an Autoclave (a machine that uses high-pressure steam to sterilize,) and equipment that cannot be autoclaved due to structure and size (surface areas, chair, and trays) is sterilized using Madacide (Hospital-grade germicidal solution.)
All equipment and/or instruments that are NOT reusable (Piercing Needles, Biopsy punches, gloves, dental bibs, etc.) are disposed of in appropriate containers, including a sharps medical waste container for all used needles and biopsy punches.
The jewelry we use to pierce is from Metal Mafia. Metal Mafia uses only the highest quality metals with certifications from Swarovski Elements, Fort Wayne Metals, Dynamet, Timet, and S&S Grinding Inc. Metallurgists. Certificates of Authenticity for all of the raw materials used in the production of their products are available online, at www.MetalMafia.com
Our "standard" jewelry, that is included in the cost of our piercings is Surgical Stainless Steel. We also offer implant grade titanium- as an upgrade option- for people who have sensitivities or metal allergies, this is the highest grade titanium possible.
If you have any questions or concerns while visiting our shop, our piercers and staff are more than happy to explain any processes or procedures and show you our equipment, records, and licenses at any time, depending on customer volume and staff availability (of course, for the safety of you and others and in keeping with our high sterilization standards, you will not be allowed INTO the sterilization room, but you will be allowed to view it from outside the doorway, one-at-a-time, and WITH a Body Bar chaperone, NO ONE WILL BE ALLOWED BACK WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM OUR STAFF)
