This was the best piercing experience I’ve ever had. Navi was very patient and explained everything thoroughly. The shop was cute and clean, and everyone was super nice.

It was so amazing! First we went for my friends birthday where my 4 friends got a piercing but I was too scared to get one, but I went back a bit later and finally got one and I love it! The staff were super friendly and Navi was the amazing, fun, and informative piercer for all of us. 10/10 experience, I'm already planning my next one for when my new one heals.

Everyone at Studs is phenomenal. Scott pierced my ear and he is fantastic at curating the ear. Scott has been the best of all of my piercers. I highly recommend this studio. Professional and just a great group of people

I have a number of ear piercings and the two I got at Studs today were probably the best experience! Scott was amazing - so friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. He made me feel very comfortable each step of the process. Place was spotless with a cool vibe, friendly front desk staff, and very reasonable prices. Definitely recommend!
