    Cool place with the sweetest people. Called in to see if they had time for a walk in piercing and the shop manager was so chill. The piercer is a sweet heart she was awesome. Love this place 💕

    I’ve been going to this place for about a decade now. Originally got a cow on my wrist, and an industrial piercing. So I’ve seen 3 people there, all have been fantastic.

    Absolutely adore Saje and the work she does, I have 3 specifically horror themed tattoos, a set of chickens, and some script done by her and all healed perfectly. The rest of the shop is always so nice. Do recommend to friends, and have brought family here.

    Maya deserves this 5-star review for taking care of my ear today. I saw Maya for my birthday in April to get a conch piercing. About a week and a half later, it started throbbing and swelling badly to the point where the skin was covering the back. Today she swapped it for a longer bar - with both the initial piercing and the swap she was quick and effective. When I left I was thanking her and she responded simply that she wanted to make sure my ear was okay. Stellar service!!
