Natalie was great! I got an ear stack curation and 4 ear piercings. She listened to my goals and built a piercing plan based on what I wanted. Can’t wait to go back and finish the last three piercings when these heal.

Natalie did an amazing job with my 8 year old daughter’s ear piercing! She was patient and soothing as she explained the process and my daughter was as put completely at ease. The process was quick (though we did not feel rushed at all!) and my daughter was super excited after it was over.
