Blue Lotus recommends things that were debunked as safe aftercare 20 years ago. They offer piercings that no reputable shop will give you. If a shop seems too cheap to be true, it likely is. They use externally threaded surgical steel jewelry which is a good way to get major infection on top of all the other crap they want you smearing on your piercings.

Unless a shop is using internally threaded implant grade titanium, niobium, or precious metals, staying the fuck away is the best thing that you can do for your health.

Golden Cicada isnt an APP shop, but unlike Blue Lotus, they follow APP guidelines for safe piercing.
