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.
Super quick, informative, professional. Love the stud options and friendliness of the women who I interacted with. Booked ahead for a double helix piercing and couldn’t be happier with the results (healing so well too which, compared to my other piercing, is a godsend). Will be recommending this spot for all piercings for my friends going forward!

The piercing experience was great. However, the earrings used were not good quality for the price. I paid somewhere around $60 for an opal-type stud for my tragus and within a month the gem came off and now I just have a plain silver stud that I paid way too much money for. I would consider going back but I would only get the plain stud instead of something with a stone.

I rarely ever leave bad reviews of places, but was genuinely shocked by the way I was treated by the front desk person. I went in today (a Tuesday afternoon) and started looking around, considering getting another piecing. I’ve been to other Studs locations before and loved the experience. As I was waiting, I overheard the receptionist speaking condescendingly, and practically yelling at a customer. I felt uncomfortable but figured I’d just push through. When it was my turn, she was incredible rude and short with me, and outright making fun of me at me? It takes quite a bit to bother/make me uncomfortable, but I decided to leave, especially considering I am trusting this place with piercing my skin.

I had the best time! They were very honest about if a piercing that I wanted would work or not. And I ended up getting two!! Chloe was so sweet and amazing at explaining everything.
