    Mixed experience. The initial piercing for my 7-year-old daughter was fantastic—the nurse was very warm, professional, and took time to explain everything. However, be aware that the "complimentary" follow-up perks like ear checks and jewelry changes are very difficult to actually use. We were turned away mid-afternoon for a jewelry change my daughter had been counting down to for three weeks. Customer service made it clear that they prioritize new piercing appointments over returning clients. Go for the quality medical piercing, but don't count on the advertised follow-up benefits.

    I experienced an unusually long wait during my appointment because one of the employees was having a personal conversation with a customer for over 35 minutes while I and another customer waited for more than an hour past our scheduled times. This was extremely unprofessional and surprising from Rowan, as I’ve always known them for good customer service and efficient time management. I left very disappointed with this location’s service. I believe the employee’s name was Patricia.

    Rowan is great, especially for piercing young kids. My daughter was able to have both ears pierced at the same time and her piercer Alma was so kind and gentle. She was also able to remove the back on one of my earrings very quickly. Great experience!

    Went in today to get an earring changed. Website clearly says no appointment needed to do so. But when I went in I was told I needed to schedule an appointment . And I said how if there were no slots ? Maybe Rowan should take down walk-ins welcome because that is not true. I will never go to Rowan for anything ever again nor will I ever recommend it. I went home and changed my earring myself.

    Great experience. The manager, Susan, demonstrated a dedication to customer service and wants you to have an amazing experience! Susan is committed to making sure you are happy with your piercings. Nurse Mac was super helpful in helping me navigate what I wanted and is very patient! Mac is a truly caring nurse. Nurse Patricia is a pro piercer- she was calm and artistic. Will be back! Already made a website purchase as well due to their quality.
