Piercings are all the rage, especially for those who want to express themselves through body modification. Piercings are not just for adults though; they can be done on minors too! If you’re planning on getting one or more of your piercings done in Namibia, here’s everything you need to know about pricing:
Nose piercings usually cost $50 USD.
Nose piercings are the most common type of piercing, and they’re a little painful—but if you’ve got the nerve for it, you can do it yourself at home. You’ll need a needle (or jewellery) and some saline solution. The needle is inserted through your skin and then opened so that it catches on an object on the other side. This process causes your body to react as if there was an actual wound; this reaction pulls the skin together and closes off any space left by the piercing in order to heal properly.
If you’d rather not get started on that DIY project, there are plenty of professionals who will happily pierce your nose for about $50 USD per session in Namibia.
Tongue piercings usually cost $60 USD.
Tongue piercings typically cost $60 USD. The tongue piercing is the most painful of all piercings, as it cuts through a large amount of skin. It takes about 2-3 weeks for the tongue to heal and during this time, you will experience some pain and swelling.
It can be done in a tattoo studio or at home with a needle or gun. Please note that if your piercing is done by an amateur, there’s no guarantee that it won’t get infected because they may not sterilize their equipment properly before use on you!
Cartilage piercing usually costs $70 USD.
The cost of a cartilage piercing may vary depending on where you live and the type of jewellery you choose. Cartilage piercings are not common in Namibia, so it’s hard to find someone who has this type of jewellery and can give an estimate of what it would cost. Cartilage piercings are popular in other parts of the world such as England, Australia and Canada; the price varies from country to country but overall they range between $70 USD – $100 USD.
