Here at Warrior, we have a vigorous training regimen that surpasses most standards.  Usually lasting anywhere from 3 to 4 months, we apprentice our piercers from square one.  We make it a policy to train "unlearned" apprentices, as we will not hire anyone with previous piercing experience.  It is a three stage process that hones the abilities of an apprentice into a master body piercer.  Every day during the apprenticeship the trainee watches, listens, and learns from one our Senior Piercers, each with years of experience.  The Beginning Stage involves teaching the basics of body jewelry, sizes, gauges, prices, sterilization, etc.  The Intermediate Stage (usually the longest) deals with over 30 different aspects of placement, depth, use of tools, client relations, etc.  The Advanced Stage is where the apprentice gets hands on type work such as client preparation, marking and positioning, jewelry preparation and so on.

These steps ensure that every one of our piercers are equally trained to handle any piercing need.
