I highly recommend Rowan Piercing Shop at Tempe Marketplace, especially Maddie. If you’ve ever had bad experiences with piercings—like bleeding, reactions to jewelry, or bruising—this is the place to go. Maddie is amazing at what she does. She’s super considerate, precise with placement, and really knows her stuff. I’ve never bruised, and my piercings always heal perfectly. You can tell she genuinely cares and takes her time. I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

Amazing from start to finish! As soon as we walked through the door I was greeted by Myla, who explained the different options of piercing methods. Not only did she throughly explain both, but she also gave a recommendation based on my daughter’s age. Both her and Melissa, our piercing expert, gave recommendations on which earring jewelry may be the best fit. Melissa was careful and diligent throughout the whole process. She was thorough on explaining placement and made sure I was comfortable with the placement for the piercing. 10/10 recommend and we will be back!

Had such a great experience here!! The staff were soooo friendly, and Maddy did an incredible job with the piercings. I had a couple piercings that had closed and she was quickly able to get them re-pierced and provided great education on how to care for them. Highly recommend this location!

Sam , Maddy & Myla are very good at what they do. They got me in right before closing time like literally right before closing. They didn’t complain just got me in. I was very curios about where to get my piercing but we figured it out. Now I’m all good and so happy with how it turned out. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Thank you girls!
