Answer 1

After about 6 weeks(give or take a few) you can stop cleaning it multiple times daily. If i were you, i would still spray some H2Ocean on it or at least clean it with warm salt water just a couple times a week.

No, it wont become infected. Just pay attention to it, you will know its infected if it becomes very swollen and red and hot around it, and yellowish pus starts coming out, and it smells. Gross but true,LOL (: If this happens just go to your doctor.

Good luck (:  

Answer 2

H2Ocean is acutally a great product. I've had good results with even plain saline wash too. If you're using soap make sure it's fragrance free and I wouldn't use it more than once a day or you can irritate it and prolong healing.  

Answer 3

Why don't you just spray some H2Ocean on it?

It's a great product!

Answer 4

I would keep washing it for another three months-trust me from experience. I have had mine for almost 8 months now and I don't think it is fully healed, partially because I stopped cleaning it early due to the neck pain from the salt soaks. Definitely do a spray or solution, for the sake of your neck.

If you do stop washing too soon, it will become infected, it got infected when I got sick and I had had the piercing for two months.
