    Yori Was Amazing! The Staff Is Extremely Friendly. My Daughter Got Her First Big Girl Piercing Last Year and They Took Great Care Of Her. Juice, Snacks, and an Ice Pack Were Offered. Today We Swapped Out Our Jewelry From The Piercings From Last Year. We Changed From The Standard Piercing Jewelry To Earrings With A Little Bling! It’s So Cute. We’ll Actually Be Back Next Week To Get New Piercings For The New Year! Highly Recommend!

    Both my studs fell out a few months later with no pressure or impact or tug on them. The jewelry is cheap and not secure and my piercings are basically closed now. Waste of money on both the piercings and the cheap jewelry. Update: they responded to the review to contact them. I emailed and they did not respond. Save your money and avoid this place.

    Best place to get pierced! Yori did a phenomenal job with our group! She checked anatomy to make sure we had the best placements! One of our friends was nervous and she made her so comfortable with no pressure, and my friend got pierced with no problem! Yori was so much fun and built everyone’s confidence so much! We will definitely come back to see her again!! Thank you!!

    I got a lobe piercing done there about a year and a half ago. IT JUST HEALED. The girl who pierced me used a 14 gauge earring for my lobe so it absolutely never healed until I switched the earring. I have over 10 piercings in my ears. My industrial bar didn’t even take this long to heal. Oh and my total was around $300 for one piercing and 2 new earrings. This place is not worth your time or money. It’s the same exact experience you can get at any other piercing shop. Save yourself!!!!
