At Kalima we have been using sterile gloves for the last 10-11 years now for our piercing, not just gloves out of a box.
The reasons we do this is beause we use sterilised jewellery, needles and clamps and so we decided that as we did this it would be in our clients best interest if we upgraded to sterile gloves. Now we appreciate that obviously gloves out of a box are new, but they could still have certain matter on them from production and we did hear about used gloves being re sterilised and boxed up and sold. now this was more during covid when gloves were in so much demand, we heard about it from Ryan Oulette and a friend of ours who thinks they actually brought some!!!!
Because of this we were even more convinced of using sterile packed ones We appreciate there is a lot of extra expense doing this, but we feel and have always felt that we won't put profit before our clients well being and we are still managing to stay competitive in our pricing.
Also we feel it raises the bar about what clients should expect from our profession.
We know that most clients don't realise the difference or notice we use sterile gloves, but we won't take advantage of this, we will operate to the highest standards regardless.
All sterile gloves come individually packed , and that is how you can tell they are sterile. we have added a picture for information
