Some piercers, primarily in Europe (hence the synonym '''European method''') choose to use [[Cannula needle|cannula needles]] rather than hubless hollow [[Piercing needle|piercing needles]]. A '''cannula''' needle is a [[Hypodermic needle|hypodermic needle]] (a standard hubbed hollow needle) but with a plastic sheath on it, also hubbed. If you've ever had surgery, this is the kind of needle medical staff utilize for inserting [[IV|IVs]].
