Sammi was SO amazing! Our daughter was nervous and Sammi helped calm her nerves and offered alternative options better suited to helping make her ear piercing experience exceptional! Will definitely recommend Rowan and will return to the Southdale Mall location!

My daughter had a great experience getting pierced by Sammi! We had tried to go to another piercing place, only to be informed when we walked in that the person authorized to pierce kids was off that day. We ended up at Rowan Southdale and they really saved the day! The device piercing looks like the Claire's gun of my youth, but looked much safer and less traumatic. Sammi worked quickly and had a fun, patient attitude the whole time. Bonus: we went for a post-piercing treat at the Kowalski's at the mall. We would definitely come back!

I went here to get my almost 3 month old son ears pierced. I didn't want to go to just regular Claire's as I heard horror stories of others getting it done there. When I found out they had licensed nurses that does it I didn't hesitate and scheduled an appt online which was very convenient and easy.
Upon arriving the store was super clean and nice. We had Nicole, she was very sweet and kind and she made the progress as easy and smooth as can be. She was very informative. She piercedmy son's ears done really quick with no hiccups. He was crying for a bit until I gave him a bottle and he forgot all about it. Thank you Nicole for making it so smooth for us 🥰
The Pricing was a bit high compared to other locations I got quotes on but because of how late and how convenient it was I chose to come here and it worked best with our time . They charge $35 for one earlobe and for two it's $50 and for jewelry pricing the minimum price is $50+ . I got my son the 14k gold silver earrings the smaller one since he's just a baby it was $80. I got the aftercare spray for $20 and it came with aftercare instructions. Petty simple and straight forward.
All in all it was a great first experience to have with my babyboy. I highly recommend coming here as they do have licensed nurses ! Ask for Nicole ! She was a sweetheart. It was worth every dollar .
