Why cant you use Sleepers or earrings for body piercing?
Sleepers and earrings are designed for ear lobes, they arent even good to put in your ear until they are healed. Sleepers are very thin and can cause migration if they are used for body piercing, this acts just like an old fashioned cheese-cutter. The thin jewelry tears at the flesh like a wire and cuts through the flesh like cheese causing the piercing to migrate or grow out, this will cause inflammation and eventually infection. Ear piercing studs are unsuitable for Body Piercing because they are too short too accommodate any swelling, so they can become embedded and cause inflammation and infection. The butterfly clips on the back have small crevices that are hard too clean properly, bacteria can feed on the exudate from the wound and can infect the wound.
