We’ve reimagined a better ear-piercing experience to help you get the look you want, stress-free.
We offer ear piercings with needles (never piercing guns!) for better precision, safety and healing, as well as a wide assortment of cute, high-quality piercing jewelry options at a range of prices.
everyone there was so nice and helpful! went just for a jewelry change because i’m a baby with piercings LOL. the person in the front who helped me pick my jewelry was absolutely lovely. rose did my jewelry change and was also incredible. my left lobe piercing has been tender and the jewelry change made my blood pressure drop pretty bad - rose was immediately on it, grabbing me a water and a glucose tablet, asking if i was ok, etc. studio is super clean and the team is thorough w everything they did. great experience overall and def want to come back!!

I haven’t gotten my ears pierced in over 30 years, and was blown away by STUDS! Such friendly, knowledgeable, and upbeat staff. Was mostly painless, and especially after the fact, did not hurt at all! Super clean store and awesome selection of studs! Can’t wait to go back again!
