We’ve reimagined a better ear-piercing experience to help you get the look you want, stress-free.
We offer ear piercings with needles (never piercing guns!) for better precision, safety and healing, as well as a wide assortment of cute, high-quality piercing jewelry options at a range of prices.
I had an amazing experience with one of the front desk staff and my piercer Jalen but then after spending $400 they snapped at my girlfriend for trying to put in the brand new earring she just purchased because the front desk was “sterile?” The nice front desk lady offered for a piercer to put it in for us but the rude girl then piped up that it would be $15 for them to put the earring in?! Snapping at people and then trying to nickel and dime them when they just spent that much money left a bad taste in our mouthes so unfortunately we won’t be back.
