My friend and I came to take advantage of the 3 for $60 piercing deal they have ongoing. The deal is a great value for the money, and the shop itself was clean, updated, and had a nice ambiance (decor/music etc.)The front desk staff were very nice. The piercer on the other hand was clearly tired and frankly a bit rude. Did not say hello and was very rushed and curt the entire time: (So what do you want? Glasses off. Look down. Move over.) I had a few concerns about the placement on my nose and lobe and while she did re-mark my nose it was clear she was annoyed. The lobe

I will never be going back here. I have gotten multiple piercings in the past and very well versed with the process so decided to try a new place. Firstly, the receptionist had no idea what was going on. Every single person who walked in she told them when asked how long, that it would be 20 minutes. I told her I would wait in the car because it was cold outside and the covid capacity was high she didnt say anything, and when I returned, she simply laughed and said idk where your spot is now and then made us go to the back of the line. Even after this 20 minutes, we waited ANOTHER 2.5 hours

Me and my son got multiple piercings here. The receptionist was very friendly and well informed. The lady that pierced us was clean, quick and professional. The after care information was thorough. We love our piercings. I highly recommend this place and we will return again soon!

Went for the 3/$60 deal with my friends a while back - the girl at the front was the sweetest! but the piercer rushed through the whole process (it was busy, i get it). they used a curved barbell for my helix piercing, which totally messed up the healing process and now i have to go to another (reputable) piercer to check if its crooked :(
