Amazing experience with getting my 1yr old daughter's ears pierced. Margaret was so patient and kind with my daughter. The room was clean and sterile which everything ready to go. The process was clearly explained and everything went quickly. There were some tears but my daughter was smiling soon enough. The after care instructions were clearly given with everything we needed. I highly recommend Margaret for your piercing needs! read more

I highly recommend Margaret for ear piercing at any age. I first heard about her through another parent, and after such a wonderful experience with both of my daughters, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Margaret is incredibly meticulous. She takes the time to carefully measure and mark the placement of each piercing, ensuring perfect symmetry and positioning. She is also exceptionally focused on cleanliness and hygiene, and she explains each step of the process, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease. The piercing itself was quick and virtually painless. I even had my own ears re-pierced by Margaret because my original piercing holes were too low, and the results were exactly what I was hoping for. Over the years, I've referred countless family members and friends to her, and every single one has had a fantastic experience. If you're looking for someone who is skilled, precise, gentle, and truly cares about her clients, I can't recommend Margaret highly enough. read more

My little one was finally old enough for ear piercing, so I turned to Yelp and quickly found babypiercing. Booking was simple -- Margaret's website clearly explains everything, from first‑time piercings to jewelry options like screw backs or push backs. I booked easily, got same‑day confirmation, and just needed to provide proof of DTaP vaccination. *Bring a KN95 mask to your appointment. At the appointment, Margaret welcomed us into her spotless, sanitized office. She took time to explain placement, marking based on ear anatomy, and offered a nice selection of earrings. She guided my husband and me on how to hold and calm our baby so she could pierce accurately. The whole process was quick and took about 15 minutes. Our baby cried briefly, but her ears weren't red or irritated like they might be with a piercing gun. Margaret also gave clear aftercare instructions which includes when to stop using the witch hazel spray and how often to rotate the earrings so they don't heal onto the skin. Highly recommend Margaret for all baby piercing needs! read more

Margaret was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly patient, flexible with a few special requests, and made the entire experience comfortable from start to finish. We brought four girl cousins (ages 2-7) to get their ears pierced, along with siblings, parents, aunts and uncles. Even with kids playing in the background, Margaret never seemed annoyed or distracted. She allowed a few family members to stay and watch while others waited outside, which helped everyone feel at ease. Before each piercing, she carefully made sure the parents (and even us aunts!) were happy with the placement. She willingly adjusted the markings when we asked and offered thoughtful, experienced advice without ever making us feel like we were being difficult. She gave the girls numbing spray. The oldest girl didn't even flinch and the youngest cried maybe less than a minute. One of my daughters was getting her second set of piercings, and we noticed one side looked a little farther from her first piercing because of her ear shape. We asked if it could be redone, and Margaret honestly recommended doing it right away rather than waiting for it to heal. She handled the situation professionally and without hesitation or defensiveness. Although my daughter wasn't thrilled about having it redone, Margaret was quick, calm, and reassuring throughout the process. In the end, my daughter left happy--especially after receiving a couple of extra lollipops! The aftercare instructions were clear and thorough. We received a cleaning solution, an easy-to-follow aftercare calendar, and even a fun stamp for the kids to keep track of when ear care is done. I highly recommend Margaret to anyone looking for ear piercings, especially for young children. She is warm, confident, incredibly experienced, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel easy and enjoyable for our whole family read more

Margaret was prompt, patient, and professional. Everything was sanitizied ready for us to start our appointment. While we valued her expertise, she continued to make sure both parents had final say. The process was quick but emotional (for our 5 month old and me). I appreciate the 24/7 customer service post piercing and detailed instructions for at home care. She also have a wide selection of earrings for infants which was nice! The only reason for 1 star off is the price. We paid for the appointment special and then the difference for a screw back was another $100+. I'm just so glad that we didn't do it in a mall kiosk because baby was screaming! I would recommend Margaret to anyone looking to get their infant's ears pierced. read more

Margaret is truly amazing ! She was so patient, detailed oriented, and very informative on the whole process and aftercare of my baby's first ear piercing. First of all coming in to her office , it is very clean and sanitized so you feel reassured that your baby is getting that quality service they deserve. It felt like a doctor's visit which I liked compared to a mall quality ear piercing. She also let us take our time deciding which earring I wanted for my daughter (we got the clutch back type). Also she took her time marking the right spot for the earring and explained the process so it just felt very professional and reassuring especially as first time parents. Furthermore, after everything you can always reach out to her if you have any questions or concerns like what happened to us. My daughter ended up getting a build up after a couple of weeks we got it done and I reached out to Margaret wondering what I did wrong and she took time out of her schedule to let us come in for her to check it out. She was able to clean her ear piercing and told me that I should be spraying it in an angle to flush the build up downwards which makes sense because I was just spraying it directly. I feel like Margaret deserves more than 5 stars like there's no way I would get the same service and information from the mall stalls. Totally worth every penny and more read more

Professional, very quick response time prior to apt, very clean and sanitary. She also took a lot of time to ensure the earrings would be in correct place on ear according to ear size and face- she obviously really knows what she is doing and does it well with experienced hands. Made an otherwise nerve-wracking process, very easy! read more

My anxious 11-year-old granddaughter wanted her ears pierced. My daughter brought her to "baby piercing". What a wonderful experience! Calm, relaxed, personable. My anxious granddaughter swears she never felt it happening, felt no pain. My daughter says she never even flinched I assumed it would start to hurt when we got home. It has never hurt! She didn't have one moment of discomfort!. When my other granddaughter turns 11, this is the only place we're going to take her. I highly recommend it read more

I got my daughter's ears pierced here. The owner was very kind and helpful. Thank you baby piercing for your great service

Margaret is a saint! Margaret pierced my 6 year old's ears last year. No tears, all good. We were provided a calender, care instructions and a bottle of witch hazel for post piercing care. My daughter's piercing healed with no issues. Fast forward a year later, we removed my daughter's earrings and were unable to reinsert. Her piercing closed up and we had to pay Margaret another visit. As expected, communication with Margaret was swift and we were able to see her the same weekend. At the repierce appointment, my daughter was feeling extra sassy and gave Margaret a hard time. Margaret took everything in stride and kept her sense of humor through the entire appointment. Thanks so much, Margaret! You're awesome!!! read more

I didn't have any piercing but my older daughter interested. She also has sensitive skin and mild eczema. I didn't want to risk any infection doing at the mall. I googled it gun vs needle method both have some sort of risk and long term potential issue. Margaret replied to our questions timely via txt and very patience. Explain every steps and questions very clearly. Provided a post care kit and told us to txt her anytime we have questions. Very friendly and professional. Definitely not worry about any sanitizing issue. Total worth the price and the price of mind! Thank you so much Margret!! read more

Took my 6 month old here to get her ears pierced!

I want to start by simply saying that this place is amazing, for those who want a quick review, the owner was professional, kind, empathetic and just made this experience amazing. That being said I want to share my experience. A year ago I purchased a piercing session and earrings (which are beautiful) and took my then 4 year old daughter to our appointment. Despite a valiant effort on the part of Margaret my daughter was not having it, she simply wasn't ready. Usually this would result in me losing my appointment but Margaret told me that if I kept my earrings I could comeback and finish my appointment and get my daughter's ears pierced. I immediately felt relief and appreciation for Margaret for allowing us to simply come back another time, I appreciate peoples time and this was very kind. Fast forward a year later (no joke) my daughter finally felt ready to get her ears pierced. Margaret despite the huge gap in time kept to her promise and we were able to return with the earrings we had purchased from her and finish my angels ear piercings. Margaret was simply amazing went above and beyond for my daughter and I appreciate it. In addition to that she made my daughter feel heard, comfortable and as a result she didn't even flinch this time. Margarets use of numbing spray and professional yet caring process made my Angel feel comfortable and now she has her ears pierced and is so happy. read more

We took our 4 and a half month old baby to get her ears pierced today! Margaret was so kind, calm, and professional. She really takes time to plot the piercings--she drew and redrew the dot on each ear until she and I were satisfied with the placement. She told me and my husband what to expect before she did it and she worked quickly between ears and was super calm when our baby started crying. She answered all of our questions and we were sent home with an aftercare kit with really clear instructions. The facility is so clean and quiet, you are sure to have a great experience. read more

My first pierce from many years ago was not centered. I finally decided to get another pierce. Margaret took her time to mark the pierce to have it balance with the other side. She is absolutely amazing!! read more

Expensive. With that kind of money, the first thing i would expect is excellent service. However, that was never my experience here. I had an appointment, rang the bell, waited outside for over 30 mins. Margaret was inside, did not answer or even care to open the door for me. There are no chairs or waiting seats outside of this place so there is no other option but to blankly stare at the walls and the door. If you, as a customer are late, she charges full fee for your absence. After i left, she later sent me a text saying she forgot about our appointment and she was on the phone. That was her excuse. I drove 40 mins to keep my appointment that day. Attached below are the transcripts from the message exchanges that day of the appointment. Note: I waited for another 10 mins even after saying i was leaving just to see if she would open the door, however, she didn't. Also if you don't believe me about the waiting area go check it out for yourself. There are indeed, a few chairs outside in the hall but those are for the patients of a doctor's office a few doors away from her place. I won't be surprised if now she adds some for her own customers. read more

Margret is just so incredible at piercing babies ears. We came here 4 years ago with my firstborn and now with my 2nd child. We went a month ago and my 2 month old did incredible (some tears). Margret was so careful and payed so much attention to detail when considering the position of the piercings. My daughter has small lobes so she explained that to us and why the position she chose was best. My husband and I trusted her judgement and wow! My babies piercings look amazing! We are about five weeks post piercing and my baby isn't phased by us cleaning them or when she sleeps on her side. They look perfect! Margret is so professional, organized, detail oriented, kind, patient and the cleanliness is outstanding! Highly recommended! read more

Thank you, Margaret for your excellent and professional service. Your care and detailed explanation of the ear piercing process was evident from the very beginning. Suffice it to say, that you have a very happy 11 year old customer who immediately told me that we had found the right person and place for this milestone. Thank you! read more

Took my 3 month old to get her ears pierced for the very first time yesterday I kept going back and fourth trying to decide to pierce her ears, Margarets services convinced me because she does not use a piercing gun but some sort of device that has pressure and uses the same earing to puncture the hole so my baby only cried since it obviously hurt but did not cry due to the loud noise that a piercing gun makes she cried for about 5-10 minutes but also because she was being held down she calmed down and was all smiles after and did not show any signs of pain or discomfort. Margaret was super gentle and patient and provided us with an aftercare kit along with thorough instructions she gave my son a stamp to stamp the calendar everyday for as long as we are doing the aftercare the fact she included him in the process was sweet because big brother was terrified for baby sister so that definitely helped. The place is very clean and sanitized and Margaret is very professional and reassures you as a parent before leaving she makes sure you know she is available 24/7 if you have any questions or concerns. Yes they are cheaper options for ear piercings but you get what you pay for we drove 50 minutes and would do it again. For a baby I would definitely spend a little more for a quality and safe service. read more

My daughter and I both got our ears pierced today and it was a fantastic experience. We both had prior piercings that had closed and the re-piercing was done with such care and thoughtful placement of where the holes should be placed. Highly recommend Babypiercing for all ages! read more

Would 100% recommend Margaret to anyone needing to pierce their little one's ears. Do not get overwhelmed by the instructions on the website Margaret is wonderful and accommodating. My 7 month old was calm and didn't cry until it was time for me to hold her head in place. She only cried because I restricted her movement and not because of the piercing. She immediately stopped crying when I let go of her head! It seemed way less painful to her than her vaccinations which usually make her scream. Margaret is extremely thorough in marking the ears and is a perfectionist. I wasn't sure about getting my baby's ears pierced this young but I'm very glad I decided to since it seems to have been way less stressful for her than it would've been once she's older. read more

Yesterday, my daughter & 2 friends got their ears pierced together at Babypiercing. Girls are 10 years old so felt they were old enough to be in charge of doing the after care. Margaret is warm, kind, thoughtful & gentle. She made every step so clear and treated the girls respectfully, so they felt in control & responsible. Her practice includes the following: -ear numbing -selection of very cute stud earrings 14K -disinfecting earring selected -marking ears with dot for earring placement (Parents input is welcomed. She will explain why she chose to dot in particular place on the ear but parents have the final say) -parent goes in with child for support while ears are pierced. Friends stays in waiting room -in a group, talked about after care for pierced ear. -giving each girl a kit take home which included, witch Hazel spray, small calendar book, marked important dates & small stamp. -lastly, parental instruction but to supervise and monitor. Margaret is so knowledgeable about placement for earrings; Things, we, moms, never thought about as got our ears pierced by someone in the mall. Overall, everyone left happy and so loved their experience. read more

Margaret is amaaazing! She ensured that my husband and I were very comfortable with EVERY step of the procedure including the baby's physical & emotional responses, marking of the ear lobes & how she aligns then so precisely, choosing of earrings, the tools she uses and she evens packs a little going home care kit with a calendar marking the day you start and end after care cleaning! Her office was extremely clean and she was so kind. Her energy was very sweet and welcoming and she was very communicative with every email and text message I sent. I am so happy to have found her as I was so nervous about getting my daughter's ears pierced, but she exceeded my expectations! Margaret is the best! Thank you so much Margaret! :) read more
