- RFRaisa Freidlin1 day ago1.0This business relies on a misleading model where the piercing fee is low but customers are pushed to buy cheap studs at extremely inflated prices. They do not allow outside earrings and justify it with a sterility excuse that is not scientifically valid, which makes the policy more about profit than safety
- JCJanna CritzNov 13, 20255.0Really awesome experience. They really take their time to match you with the right earring and the piercing was the easiest piercing I’ve ever had. Absolutely would go back for more!
- LWLauren WilliamsNov 9, 20255.0Myrna was amazing, knowledgeable, gentle and so friendly! I got two upper helix piercings and my Mom got her nose pierced, and the experience was great! I would highly recommend!
- LVLizC VenturaNov 9, 20255.0Myrna was extremely kind, my kid had some anxiety and Myrna let us use the more private space since it was pretty crowded. Great experience!
- AAAlejandra AguirreOct 26, 20255.0Got my third ear lobe piercing on either side, which is something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now but never got around it until I came across Rowan. It’s so easy to book an appointment and prices are listed online! The appointment itself was super quick and easy. The nurse was super informative about placement and the healing process. This is now my go to place for ear piercings!
