You should ideally not have a soaking bath until the piercing is through the initial healing stages, and oozing, bleeding and scabbing have all stopped. Just be careful to avoid hitting or damaging your piercing area.  Don't pull at or scrub the area.  Ideally both. The purpose of this is to rinse out any bacteria or soap that might have snuck in there.

SUMMARY: Take a shower instead, if you can. Shower as normal. When you're done, pat the area dry very lightly with a clean, soft towel. Rinse the wound out with sea salt water (one pinch in an eggcup of boiled and cooled water is about right) or tea tree oil. Clean your piercing thoroughly before you sleep that night using normal procedure.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Bleaching the knots and or lace helps them blend into the color of your scalp by removing the black dots. Mix equal parts bleach and 20 to 30 volume professional developer in a bowl. Then, turn the wig inside out. Use the applicator brush that came with the bleach to carefully apply the bleach to the lace and knots. Wait about 15 minutes or until the knots turn blonde, then thoroughly rinse the wig out upside down.  Immediately wash the wig with a neutralizing shampoo to stop the chemical process. Then, condition the wig to prevent the material from getting dried out. Allow the wig to air dry. Bleaching the knots will conceal the appearance of the black dots on the lace. Bleaching the knots isn’t only for lighter skin tones. Bleaching should be effective for any skin tone. If the lace doesn’t quite blend in with your scalp or forehead, you can use concealer to color it. Take a concealer that closely matches your skin tone and apply a small amount of it onto a sponge. Use the sponge to blend the concealer into the lace front until it matches your skin tone. Heat styling tools are typically okay to use on real human hair. You can use a flat iron or curling iron to style your hair as desired. Use a low heat setting and only style dry hair so that you don’t cause excess damage to the wig.  To straighten the wig, take a 1 inch (2.5 cm) section of hair and run the heated flat iron from root to tip. Repeat on each section until you’ve straightened all of the hair on the wig. To curl the wig, clamp the curling down on a 1 inch (2.5 cm) section of hair in the middle (between roots and tips). Then, wrap the bottom section of hair around the wand. Hold for 5 to 10 seconds and then let go. Repeat on each section until all of the hair has been curled. If you don’t want to leave the hair down, you can  put it up in a ponytail or bun.  Make a side ponytail by creating a deep part, then brush all of the hair to 1 side. Gather all of the loose hair and secure it with a ponytail holder. Create a top knot by gathering the hair into a high ponytail. Then, twist all of the hair around into a knot. You can secure the bun with bobby pins or a ponytail holder. Make sure the wig looks natural at the nape of your neck.

SUMMARY: Bleach the knots or lace on your wig to hide them. Camouflage the lace on the wig with concealer. Use heat styling tools only on human hair wigs. Style the wig in an updo, if desired.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Pour 1/2 cup (120 ml) of soy sauce, 1/2 cup (120 ml) of rice vinegar, and 1/4 cup plus 4 teaspoons (64 g) of sugar into a small saucepan. If you don't want to use rice vinegar, you can substitute dry sherry, sweet marsala wine, or dry white wine. Turn the heat on to low and stir the sauce until the sugar dissolves. Let the sauce bubble gently and simmer it until it's as thick as you want it to be. For example, for a thin sauce, turn off the heat as soon as the sugar dissolves. For a thicker sauce, simmer it for 10 to 20 minutes. Let the eel sauce cool completely before you pour it into a squirt bottle or storage container. Drizzle the eel sauce over your favorite sushi, cooked noodles, or grilled meats. Store the eel sauce in the refrigerator and use it within 5 days.

SUMMARY:
Measure the ingredients into a pan. Stir and simmer the sauce. Cool and use the sauce.
