Katie was the best, very comfortable setting, super customer friendly. We will be back
In town from NY and showed up as a walk in for a nose piercing. Was in and out in less than 5 minutes. Kate was great and seemed to be doing to this for a long time. Very informative yet straight to the point with the process and after care. Would definitely come back.
