I've had piercings done here before so I came back for another a few months back. The stud used was too small and prevented my ear from healing. My ear kept crusting up and refused to heal, over 3 months later it was still irritated so I decided to change the earrings out for earrings I have at home. They healed in less than a week after I changed them out. Not sure if it's one size fits all but the earrings were definitely too small for my hole to heal properly. I do like the piercer. Just a little bummed because my ear has been slightly irritated for awhile. I should have just came in to have it addressed but I didn't have time.

Friends went in for their appointment. One person sat for over 4 hours. Had one big tattoo with shading and everything done. Gorgeous tattoo. The other person went right after them. Sat for maybe 45-1hr tops for 2 small fine line, no shading tattoos. At the end the first person was charged less than $250 and the second person was charged over $400. Absolutely outrageous. When asked, no valid explanation or reasoning for the jacked up charge for the second person.

Great atmosphere, great people! Had an idea to expand on a 10yo tattoo and brought it to Shawn nailed the idea and effect! Thank you!

Great store! I first had both my ear lobes pierced. The service was quick, the piercer was transparent, the piercing environment in the back was very sanitary, and they answered any questions I had (a lot, because it was my first time getting pierced). The service plus the prices were great and I didn’t consider any other stores when I wanted to get my left nostril done. 3 weeks ago I got the appointment, in-and-out within 20 minutes. The prices here are also a lot better than Blue Lotus, which I’ve heard has a very similar store environment and piercing quality. I’d definitely come back for piercings in the future if ever want to!

I’ve had many piercings done over the years here. Never had any problems. Very fast and easy process. Katie always makes you feel comfortable before she does the actual piercing. Always will go here for piercings.
