Kaia is wonderful. I texted her on Labor Day to see if my daughter and I could 3 piercing. She didn’t tell me she wasn’t working and met us at her studio. She was such a nice person and did a wonderful job on our piercing.

Kaia is a wonderful person and a very talented artist. I had her do my first tattoo a year ago before this studio was open, she made the experience very easy, fun and enjoyable. The laugh alone is infectious. I have since returned for multiple pieces all done with the same care love and friendliness as the one…

Kaia is amazing she had done almost every piercing on my body. She has also done every single one of my tattoos. She’s just amazing to be around and makes you feel so comfortable in her studio.
