She wanted to make sure that the piercings were placed properly so she took her time and allowed me to see where she was going to pierce my ears based on my preferences, and I am very happy with the outcome. I brought my daughter granddaughter and husband because our little five-year-old granddaughter also wanted her ears pierced for the first time. Both Sierra and Adrianne pierced my granddaughter's ears at the same time so the experience was quick and again relatively painless for my little granddaughter who said "they both did it at the same time and I didn't cry at all. It hardly hurt" The studio is well designed and comfortable for the rest of the family who were there for support and to watch. Both Sierra and Adrianne were professional and kind. We highly recommend The Prick.

Anyhow, my aesthetician was Adrienne, a young person, who was mellow and helpful, which was great because I was a little tense. We went over a few spots, I laid back, she asked for a deep relaxed breath and no pain at all, not even after. Kind of like a tranquilizer. The studio was chic with a relaxed vibe.

Now when I talk about his art he's beyond 5 stars , he's 10/10. He deserves the best and he provides the best art in any state or outside of the country. 90% of my tattoos are from Jhon I'm a loyal guy but he even told me it's also a great experience to get art from other artist which he will recommend not only in the USA but all over the world. It's an honor to have him here in Miami and if you have the chance to get a piece from him you should no questions asked . he will take care of you. I only get 4 hours or more art from him but if you have an opportunity to get a time slot with him you definitely take that opportunity and get it done! Te quiero hermanito

I had started a half sleeve a few months back and only had a bit of line work for 3 roses. We were referred to Jhon by a friend and went in in hopes of continuing my sleeve.

I told him to feel free to throw in some of his own ideas and I'm glad I did. I can't wait to go back and finish my sleeve. His prices are also fair. Thanks again Jhon!

I've had some upsetting experiences at other piercers, and I knew from my previous tattoo experiences here that it would be the perfect place to get a piercing.

My friends have also gone here before and all of our tattoos and piercings have healed amazingly.

She is very communicative and straightforward every step of the way, from booking to design set up to applying the tattoo. She is very professional and explains the whole process in detail. I supplied an image I wanted done but gave her artistic freedom and she understood what I wanted. Jaxie is very friendly and knowledgeable. She maintains a very clean and sterile shop. Jaxie has more of a light-handed approach which made the experience more comfortable and resulted in cleaner healing. She provided informative aftercare instructions & a little goodie bag with stickers, aftercare ointment and a soy candle. I can honestly say Jaxie is the most accommodating tattoo artist I've been to! I explained I have vasovagal syndrome (fainting) and she made sure I was comfortable in the chair (there's also snacks and drinks on hand if needed). I love my tattoo! It healed beautifully. Overall, I highly recommend getting tattooed here. I know I'll be getting more tattoos done by Jaxie!

Came here for a facial and a regular mani-pedi. Facial was good, but what made it good was that…read moreMichelle is an excellent masseuse and instead of leaving you by yourself, she massages you while the facial sets in. Wow, she is an excellent masseuse. The facial I paid for was the hibiscus clarifying facial and she did not do any extractions, which I thought was weird. The mani pedi was done by Cassidy, and while the pedi was fine, the mani was great. I told her I really wanted her to focus on my hands and she did a great job. I would say that the owners could stand to let us decide was is best for us, instead of telling us--I definitely felt patronized a bit by being told what I needed and what I should get, but I am reviewing the services, not the owners. My pedi could have been a bit more thorough, a bit more cuticle maintenance and the color could have been better but I told her I was more interested in my hands, and she did do that well. I think I would come here for a massage and maybe one of the powder or gel nail services, as the regular nail polish services were very expensive.

However, as someone who regularly gets service at a number of places in and out of state - $57 for a gel manicure is not reasonable in my opinion. When I made the appointment I was asked- "what's on your nails now?"- which would have been the perfect opportunity to explain their very unusual approach to pricing. They charge $15 to remove existing polish, and $42 for new gel polish. I requested a manicure but really all I got was removal of my existing gel polish, and reapplication of new gel polish. No cuticle work at all.

I…read morestarted seeing her for massages when she worked at Stephen & Burns and she just made the switch to PierVana. Although admittedly, I had never heard of PierVana before Billie started working there, I was very impressed. It's located downstairs in a California-type shopping building off Shelburne Road. It's extremely peaceful and smells great. I felt very comfortable and perhaps even like I was in some other place far away from Burlington. Billie gives the most amazing mid-pressure Swedish massages you will ever have. I kid you not. I know massages are subjective, but unless you like those massages that hurt and you have to grind your teeth together to not scream out, you will love Billie's massages (actually, perhaps she can even give the kind of massages that hurt - it wouldn't surprise me, she's very skilled). Billie also gives facials. I have only had mini ones from her, but she has the magic touch, so I'm sure the full-length ones are fantastic, too. Do yourself a favor and if you can get in, book a massage with her :)

I almost never leave negative reviews, and when I do, there's usually a good reason. But this…read moreexperience was so unusual that I almost have to admire its creativity. Two weeks after my hair-cut appointment, I received a phone call informing me that we were "not a good fit." For a moment, I thought perhaps my hair had filed a complaint without telling me. I calmly asked why--not to argue or change anyone's mind, but simply to understand so I could learn something for future appointments. The answer? Still, "We're not a good fit." Apparently my assignment was to solve this mystery with no clues...and no stylist's notes. What made this especially disappointing was that this wasn't just a routine color appointment. We had spent considerable time discussing what I believed would be a long-term transition plan to gradually blend my colored hair into my natural gray using lower-chemical products. My understanding was that it would be a careful process that could take a year or two, with appointments lasting hours along the way. I left excited to begin that journey. So the unexpected phone call two weeks later was genuinely shocking. Looking back, perhaps we truly weren't "a good fit." That's perfectly okay. I wasn't looking for a friendship--I was looking for an experienced colorist who could guide me through this transition. If she had simply said, "I don't think I'm the right person for this project," I would have completely respected that. I just wish she had communicated more clearly and specifically and reminded me of the transition plan we had discussed so I could continue my search intelligently with another colorist. Instead, I was left wondering if my hair had committed a crime while I wasn't looking. One star for communication. Five stars for creating the only salon experience where I left needing a detective instead of a conditioner.
