Sara was absolutely wonderful! She made my eight year old feel completely at ease. It was such a calm and easy experience. We will go back to her for any future piercings.

Terrible experience. I took my daughter to get her ears pierced (second hole) today. They had the first hole pierced before I realized that they did not use the earrings we had asked for! The earring they used was at least 2x the size of what we had selected. I was shocked. They offered to start over / pierce a new hole, but there was no way I was going to convince my already nervous child to do that. I cannot believe we paid so much for such an awful experience.
