Body piercing kits put the supplies for one type of piercing in one package. Here's what you'll usually find inside and how kits differ.

What's usually in a kit

• Sterile, single-use piercing needles in the right gauge
• Starter jewelry for that piercing type
• Single-use gloves
• Clamps or forceps, depending on the kit
• Skin prep and marking supplies, depending on the kit

Kits differ by piercing type

Nose, belly, tongue, eyebrow, ear and nipple kits each come with the needle size and jewelry style that piercing uses. Browse our body piercing kits and piercing needles.

Safety first

Piercing should always be done by a trained professional piercer in a clean studio. Kits and needles are supplies, not a replacement for a professional. If you're getting pierced, visit a licensed piercer and ask them about aftercare.
