Best piercing experience ever!! I got my belly button re-pierced by Keelin and he was so sweet and assuring. The last time I got it pierced was from somewhere else and they did me wrong but Keelin was super professional and made sure everything was how I wanted it. He told me everything I needed to know about taking…
