Question 1

How does The Glory Hole sterilize piercing equipment?

Accepted Answer

The Glory Hole™ uses medical-grade sterilization procedures for all piercing tools and jewelry. All needles are purchased pre-sterilized from a trusted professional manufacturer and opened in your presence for complete transparency. Every reusable tool is cleaned, packaged, and sterilized in our on-site medical steam autoclave, the same level of sterilization used in medical and dental offices.

We follow strict sterilization protocols, including proper loading techniques, packaging procedures, and routine spore-testing, to ensure every instrument that touches your body is safe, sterile, and fully compliant with Colorado health regulations.

Question 2

What makes The Glory Hole safer than mall kiosks or non-professional studios?

Accepted Answer

Unlike mall retailers or unregulated accessory shops, The Glory Hole™ is a licensed, health-department-regulated piercing studio.

We use:
 • Sterile, single-use needles (never piercing guns)
 • Implant-grade jewelry
 • Autoclave sterilization
 • Anatomy-based piercing techniques
 • Trained professional piercers

Mall kiosks are not held to the same hygiene, training, sterilization, or regulatory standards. We choose to operate at a clinical level of safety, ensuring every piercing is performed responsibly and safely with medical-grade products.

Question 3

Does The Glory Hole follow Colorado body art regulations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, The Glory Hole™ is fully licensed by the El Paso County Health Department and complies with all Colorado body art regulations, including sterilization, documentation, aftercare standards, ID requirements, and facility inspections.

We voluntarily exceed many state requirements to ensure our studio remains one of the safest and most professionally run piercing environments in the region.

Question 4

Are piercings performed with sterile, single-use needles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every piercing at The Glory Hole™ is performed with a brand-new, sterile, single-use, medical-grade needle that is opened in front of you.

We never reuse needles, and we never use piercing guns.

This method is safer, cleaner, and far more accurate, giving you a healthier healing process and reducing skin trauma.

Question 5

What certifications do your piercers have?

Accepted Answer

Our piercers maintain certifications in:

• Bloodborne Pathogens
 • First Aid & CPR
 • Colorado body art compliance
 • Sterilization & aseptic technique

Training continues year-round to ensure our team stays current on best practices, evolving safety standards, and professional body art techniques. We believe in providing the highest level of skill, cleanliness, and care to every client, every time.
