Very sweet and friendly staff who were kind and patient with my nervous 8yr old. She had time to review and select earrings They explained pricing and process.Janna the nurse asked her if she wanted everything explained or just to “go”. She explained each step ahead of the piercing and gave her time between ears to breathe. Great spot! Worth the drive from the north suburbs.

Super cute place! My teenager wanted to get pierce and they were lovely.
What impressed me most was the host, Lisa. She is so good at her job. Such a gem of a human. It was a busy day and she was going from person to person (including many young, nervous kiddos) to make sure they had what they needed. She was so good at explaining the process, helping people pick their earrings, and being helpful without being pushy. She truly made the experience

This place was great with piercing my 3 yr old's ears. Courtney was amazing at explaining everything and making my toddler feel so comfortable and even when my toddler got nervous, Courtney did a great job keeping the situation calm. Caroline was awesome as well. I'm so glad I chose this place. Highly recommend.

Cannot say enough good things about Caroline! Our 8rd old was finally ready to get her ears pierced for her birthday after contemplating it for a few years now. We gave her the option of whenever she was ready and she decided this was the year. Caroline was patient and explained every thing as it happened. She was kind and a perfectionist with placement (which I appreciate as a I was part of the mid-mall kiosk piercing history and forever have crooked piercings). It was quick, incredibly precise and my daughter was shocked at how little it hurt. Ourselves and Caroline helped prep her with after feelings like warm ears from the piercing so she was not surprised by any of the reactions ears naturally have right after being pierced. She left with a triumphant smile! We are three days post-piercing and they are healing beautifully (not crust or redness). We did get the after care spray to use twice a day. I will say, it is very pricey, but for permanent holes in her ears, we wouldn't have done it anywhere else! They are perfect!
