Grace and ash were the best! Truly styled my ear and went above and beyond just the piercing service. Also the prices are completely reasonable! I bought 4 piercings of jewelry and got 2 piercings for $250

Piercing went great, got four and one fell out after three days. Service is good but the quality of the studs themselves are poor, easy to get lost. Wasted $100
