Things happen and maybe it's because of the review I left. At this point I guess it will remain unfinished. I already paid for the color.

Sweet Lady that did this one of the memoriam of my mom that passed I just wished I could be able to finish it sometime in the future somewhere. My mom was born and raised in california so the red was going to be the best part.

I definitely recommend Born This Way for ear piercing. Four-ish years ago (at their previous…read morelocation) we had our daughter's ears pierced. She was about six at the time. We had a great experience then and we recently had another great experience at their newer Kingston Pike location. Online appointments are necessary but easy to reserve. You can read the bios and choose who you would like to work with and then choose an available appointment day and time. We chose to have our six year old's ears pierced here because of the cleanliness, friendliness and professionalism. It's important to note that if you're piercing your child's ears, go to their website and read it first. You need to bring a copy of the child's birth certificate and pay a reservation fee. The website provides lots of helpful information. Once we arrived for the appointment, I was impressed with the relaxed yet lovely setting. There are several display cases of various body jewelry. Merchandise is also available. And there are two seating areas. We were greeted immediately by a friendly employee, checked in and then we met with Barron who is a professional body piercer. He was very informative, patient and professional. The private piercing room was very clean and several steps were taken to ensure sterilization. The piercing process was efficient. Barron explained his process and followed up with aftercare information to ensure her new piercings healed correctly. Now, when it comes to piercing, you get what you pay for. The service and jewelry at Born This Way is more expensive than a say a business offering a piercing gun and nickel-free jewelry. But, Born This Way provides a safe, clean, welcoming environment. You work with a knowledgeable professional piercer and the jewelry is titanium and very good quality. We are very pleased with the whole experience and everyone we worked with at Born This Way.
