Choosing safely in a busy area
In a very crowded area like Taksim, an eye-catching storefront or a lively street does not mean the procedure is safe. Make sure the person doing it wears gloves, that surfaces are cleaned and that the needle is opened in front of you. Prefer places that explain what will happen before the procedure, tell you the jewelry material and aftercare routine, and give you time; stay away from places that rush you or dodge details. Conditions may differ for minors; be sure to look into the legal framework in Turkey and parental consent.
