She did no mapping like they show on YouTube and everything with strings & this and that..she put this plastic stencil like thing over my eyebrows and it looks like she took a black magic marker and just drew a line on with it(no stroke like here whatsoever ) and then I said no that's not what I wanted their too thin and she goes well That's what you okayed when she had the plastic tracer thing over my eyebrows and I said no I meant the outside part so she went over them again. She made them too close together. I had to tell her to put more of a tail. There are zero hair marks and they were black, and I showed her pictures of light light brown light brown eyebrows...

i'm honestly very disappointed writing this review because i have gotten multiple piercings from…read morethis shop before & had absolutely no issues. i always had a great experience with the women who pierced me previously. they were patient, kind, professional, & took their time to make sure everything was placed correctly. because of those experiences, i felt comfortable coming back to have my septum redone. unfortunately, this experience was completely different. when i arrived, i was pierced by an older man who immediately came across as condescending & sarcastic. i initially brushed it off because i noticed the signs in the shop indicating that this was part of the shop's "vibe," so i decided not to take it personally. once we got into the piercing room, he immediately numbed my septum without asking me first. i found this strange considering i had previously had my septum pierced there & was never offered numbing cream, but i brushed it off & continued with the appointment. there were also hygiene concerns throughout the process. he sanitized his hands, put his gloves on, & then proceeded to touch other things around the room with the same gloves on before continuing with my piercing. while the hygiene issues were not even my biggest concern compared to what happened with the actual piercing, i still found this extremely concerning, especially when performing a procedure that involves breaking the skin. the actual piercing process felt extremely rushed. he did not take the time to properly look inside my nose or carefully assess the placement before piercing me. he simply placed the clamps to my septum & put the needle through. immediately, i felt a level of pain that i had never experienced with my previous septum piercing. i assumed maybe it was because of scar tissue from having it pierced before, so i tried not to think too much of it. then he handed me the mirror, & i immediately knew something was wrong. my septum was visibly & extremely misplaced. it was pierced way too far back, & every time i spoke, the ring would flip upward into my nose. it looked completely out of place. i decided to give it about a week & see if things improved, but instead, the pain continued to get worse. eating became uncomfortable. talking hurt because my septum ring continued flipping upward every time i opened my mouth. i also began sneezing much more frequently, & almost every time i sneezed, the piercing would start bleeding. this was nothing like my previous experience with getting my septum pierced, & at that point i knew something was seriously wrong. i went to a different professional piercer today to have it checked out. before i could even fully explain what had happened, she immediately noticed my septum flipping upward when i spoke. after examining it, she told me that the piercing had gone through my cartilage & that the placement was severely incorrect. she explained that it was very clear the piercer had not taken the time to properly look inside my nose or position the clamps correctly before piercing me. she told me she had never seen a septum piercing placed like this & that, in her professional opinion, the situation was the result of serious negligence. thankfully, she was able to remove the piercing for me, & i am finally no longer experiencing the constant pain i had been dealing with. i also felt that the piercer's behavior throughout the appointment was concerning. he seemed very off to me, to the point where i genuinely questioned whether he was completely sober or otherwise in the appropriate condition to be performing a piercing. obviously, i cannot say for certain what was going on, but his demeanor & behavior made me uncomfortable. i am not someone who likes leaving rude or negative reviews. in fact, i have had multiple positive experiences at this shop in the past, which is what makes this so disappointing. i genuinely liked the work i had received here before & felt comfortable coming back because of those experiences. but when you are piercing someone's face, proper placement, technique, hygiene, attention to detail, & professionalism are not things that can be rushed or overlooked. i looked forward to getting my septum redone, & instead i spent the following week in pain & ultimately had to have the piercing removed because it was done incorrectly. i am leaving this review because i genuinely believe bad work needs to be called out when it involves something as serious as piercing someone's body, especially their face. no one deserves to leave an appointment excited about a piercing they have been looking forward to, only to spend the next week in pain & find out from another professional that it was improperly done. i sincerely hope management takes this experience seriously & looks into what happened so that another customer does not have to go through the same experience.
