Mack was amazing! She change my earring for the tragus piercing. She had the kindness/patience to allow me to practice the removal and setup back again at the shop. The tragus can be a tricky spot to work on and I truly appreciate her professionalism and kindness. Also, very content with my new earring!

I researched where to get my industrial piercing for awhile and so happy to go to Mack! My ear anatomy is not meant for a traditional industrial pierce, however! She was able to customize my jewelry and make it work to my ear! I highly recommend her and through the whole process she was super patient and kind! Most importantly she really explained the ear anatomy to me and had a vision that came out beautiful. I will return for any additional piercings :)

I had a wonderful experience with Mack after coming in with a botched navel piercing. She explained everything with great detail and helped me take care of the situation with so much grace. There are lots of shops in El Paso that will take advantage of people for money, but this is one of the only places I’ve ever been where I was treated with kindness and care. I would recommend her as a piercer 100x over! Thank you so much Mack!

Mack was incredible and made my 10 year old feel comfortable with getting her second piercing. We had ample time to pick out our jewelry to be sure we were pleased with our choices. She is patient and kind, and definitely the piercer you should have for your next piercing!
