- RLRebecca Luu6 days ago5.0I had Robert. He was very sweet and informative. Made me feel comfortable and relaxed during the piercing. Highly recommended. It was quick.
- DSDanielle SmithJun 28, 20265.0We’ve been in several times and always have the best experience. Piercer Robert Sharpsteen is magical - he is so kind, gentle, knowledgeable and patient. We drive our 15 year old daughter from Escondido to be pierced by him. It’s expensive but worth it. Highly recommend.
- CMC MoraJun 25, 20265.0This is the best ear piercing experience I have ever had. Marissa was amazing, she is very professional, extremely knowledgeable and kindhearted. The shop is super clean and the earrings are gorgeous 😍 so many beautiful pieces to choose from. Did I mention it's super clean, which was important for me. Also how about the method they use...almost painless. I will never go anywhere else. Marissa is awesome 👌
- KSKim SooJun 23, 20261.0I got my double conch pierced here, and the piercing was so tight when it swelled up I had to change it. I was able to change one but when I went to change the second one the entire backing went into my ear and I had to go to the emergency room to remove it. Please use longer jewelry next time
- TTTess TarletonJun 18, 20265.0Thank you Robert for helping me get my stuck earrings swapped out for the most perfect hoop!! This has been the BEST experience ever. Will be going back very soon.
