We had such a wonderful experience at Rowan! Getting my daughter’s ears pierced was a big milestone, and the staff made it so comforting and professional. They were truly fantastic with her, turning what could have been a nervous moment into something special and easy. We highly recommend Rowan for anyone looking for a caring and positive piercing experience

I have over 20 piercings and this was my first time at Rowan instead of a tattoo shop. It was so quick and easy - and painless! I also really appreciated that they recognized my experience and didn’t talk down to me about aftercare. I’ll be back once I decide what my next one will be!

We had such a wonderful experience at Rowan! Jess was our primary piercer and she was absolutely amazing — she pierced me, my mom, and my toddler so smoothly. She explained everything in such a calming way to my nervous mama-self and was so gentle and fun with my daughter. Christine assisted with the tandem piercing on my daughter, and together they made the whole moment quick, precise, and comforting. Not even one tear was shed! We left feeling confident, cared for, and so happy. Highly recommend this team!

Came to Rowan to pierce my daughter’s ears for her 2nd birthday and it was the best experience. I wish I could remember the names of the 2 sweet nurses working there tonight but they were so kind and professional and welcoming to me and my daughter’s great grandparents. I love that the nurses did my daughter’s piercing in 1 go, they did it so fast she didn’t even cry! They gave her a lollipop before the piercing and talked to her to help her feel comfortable, that meant a lot to me. I also appreciate the nurse who did the marking placement when I wasn’t happy with the first dot she made she was very understanding and perfected it immediately after. My daughter looks so beautiful with her new crystal flower 14k gold earrings. I recommend this shop to any moms looking to bring their toddlers for their first piercing. Thank you so much for making this appointment a great experience for my daughter, myself, & her great grandparents!
