Very friendly and professional staff. Brandon is very experienced and my granddaughter didn't feel any pain with her nose piercing. Brandon made sure we were informed on how to care for the piercing and followed up afterwards too.
Found this place on a whim based on their Yelp reviews, came in with a group of myself & 2 other girls we got a conch (ear) piercing, nose piercing, and lobes and we were out and driving home in an hr and 20 min! Could not recommend this place enough. Brandon was the best and very knowledgeable about piercing after…

Brandon is the best! After a not so great experience with another piercer at another shop (for my nose) he was able to take out the crappy piercing and fix everything up, and it looks amazing.

My sister and I called ahead for a walk in piercing and tattoo apt. Trisha was able to get me in for a tattoo that day. Made me feel really welcomed and comfortable right from the start. She had me send her the design and asked for placement beforehand via text which gave her time to prep and made the apt so…

Called to see if this shop allowed walk ins for piercings, (they do) however Brandon let me know I could make an appointment for 45 minutes out and I’d get $20 off my piercing. I showed up, Brandon was super friendly and had great vibes. He was very communicative through the entire process, pierced my septum so…

I would not recommend this studio for piercings. I got my nose pierced here about 6 weeks ago. The whole process felt a bit rushed and they only had L-shaped jewelry for nose piercing. Ive been cleaning the piercing and not touching it as instructed. But I started developing an irritation bump a couple weeks ago and…
