Your baby’s first ear-piercing appointment

Appointments are suitable from 4 months old and take approximately 15 minutes. A parent or legal guardian must attend and bring the child’s Red Book.

Little Viper is inside The Viper Pit at 84 Liverpool Road, Irlam, Manchester M44 6FN. Free parking is available directly next to the studio with no time limit.

Chris will explain the process and take time over positioning before piercing each ear individually. We use a separate sterile, single-use professional piercing needle for each ear, opened fresh and safely disposed of immediately afterwards. We never reuse needles and never use piercing guns.

Your child’s comfort comes first. We never force or rush a piercing. If they become too upset or distressed, we pause and will not proceed or complete it.

The £65 price includes both earrings, Studex aftercare lotion, clear aftercare guidance and a Little Viper Certificate of Bravery to keep as a memento.

You can choose 2mm gold-plated sterling-silver safety earrings or the same 2mm safety-bar style in titanium.
