Can you wear a retainer in a piercing that is healing?

We get asked this a lot so let’s talk about it.

If you just got a new piercing, you should wait until your piercing is fully healed to switch your jewelry to a retainer. You want to avoid touching your new piercing while it heals.

If you can’t wait until your piercing heals, talk to your piercer beforehand about getting pierced with a glass retainer. Glass is very safe and can be used as your initial piercing jewelry.
