Why Titanium at Keisha's
For all our snake bites piercings, we use implant-grade titanium jewellery to ensure comfort, safety, and style. Titanium is lightweight, hypoallergenic, and corrosion-resistant, making it ideal for lip piercings that are exposed to frequent movement and moisture. Unlike lower-quality metals that can cause irritation or delayed healing, our titanium labret studs and rings support a cleaner, faster healing process, helping you wear your snake bites with confidence and ease.
Aftercare
Clean regularly: Externally: Gently clean twice daily with sterile saline solution; avoid peroxide, alcohol, or harsh soaps. Internally: Rinse 2–3 times daily with a non-alcoholic, antimicrobial mouthwash or sterile saline, especially after eating, drinking (anything other than water), or smoking.
Pro tips: Avoid twisting or fiddling with the jewellery Refrain from smoking, alcohol, spicy or acidic foods during healing No oral contact (e.g., kissing, oral sex) until fully healed Keep up good oral hygiene—brush gently and use a soft toothbrush Use ice or cold drinks to help manage swelling
Our sterile saline solution (£8.99 at our counter) is perfect for keeping the external area clean and calming any irritation.
