Had an amazing experience with Josh. I needed a quick jewelry adjustment a little while after my initial piercing because my ear was acting up, and they handled it with so much grace and professionalism. They swapped the backing for free and gave me great advice on how to keep it happy. If you want a piercer who genuinely cares about your healing journey, go here!

Took my two daughters to get matching ear piercings. First experience for both of them. Staff was kind, informative and helpful. Educated both of them before and after the piercing. Everyone was professional and friendly and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Really great experience here today! My husband and I both got tattoos and I also got three piercings. They accommodated all that with no appointment. Both our artists were very skilled, very nice, and very patient. They were precise as well and paid attention to all kinds of details, explains everything and answered all our questions. They were very clean and sanitary as well. Will be coming back for sure!

Got three piercings done and was so happy with their service. Thorough professionals, very talented (couldn’t take my eyes off their tattoo art), very detailed and pay special attention to cleanliness. Absolutely recommend!

This place is clean, legit, and full of friendly people who are eager to help you with a smile. They are very knowledgeable and skilled in their specialties. I especially enjoyed my time spent with Angel and Josh, who are very compassionate people, and know how to make you feel comfortable during the piercing process. I got a nose piercing and a third one on my earlobes, and they have healed pheonomenally! Thank you!
