The person I spoke with was very friendly and helpful. The shop is really clean and very welcoming. Everyone we encountered seemed to genuinely be happy to be working there. We filled out some paperwork and then waited for our turn! I didn't go into the room with her, but my partner did and he said that Michelle was really great. She took the time to make sure the teen was comfortable and understood what was going to happen - she also went over aftercare thoroughly and made sure we were set up for success. The jewelry was all good quality, and the prices were quite reasonable. The septum piercing, jewelry and aftercare solution came in under $150.00. I will absolutely head to Red Loon for future piercings!

I took my 4 year old here to get her ears pierced for the first time. Please note that my daughter…read morerequested ear piercing for her birthday and I did go through all of the pre-piercing info with her. I did not force it on her at all. Candice was super patient with my daughter and explained all the steps to ease her tension. The piercing was pretty quick and done in a very clean and sterile room. I would definitely bring my younger daughter back here to get her ears pierced when she is ready. The cost was about $140 including the jewellery. I found it a little pricey but I'm sure it will be worth it in the end since $100 of it went towards the high quality nickel free body grade jewellery.

Okay if you are looking for a nice, clean place to get any body piercings or tattoos done then the…read moreEye of the Lotus is the place to go. I was there once before with a friend who wanted to get his eyebrow pierced and they took really good care of him. I decided to get a couple of body piercings and it was pretty close to closing but they were nice enough to take me in. I got two piercings, since it was get one and get the second one half off. The guy did a great job making me feel relaxed and not scared about getting poked. He placed some markers and if I didn't like the position of where the piercing would go he remarked me. The whole process wasn't too long and while I was getting pocked he kept asking me if I was doing okay. He kept reassuring me I was going really well for never getting a part of my body pierced, except my ears. I felt super strong and brave! The guy was pretty nice and very friendly. That was the reason why I decided to go to The Eye of the Lotus in the first place. When my friend got his eyebrow done the guy who was doing his piercings was just so nice and funny; he totally took my friend's mind off of what was going on. They informed my friend and me (when I got my piercings done) how to clean our piercings. Like I said the joint was really clean and the staff was really nice and very professional. They made sure they did things the right way and they way you wanted.

He was also very quick with the piercing and me and my friend were both surprised when the jewelry was in my face so quickly. I will definitely come back to see Troy again if I get another piercing. Highly recommend!

My previous piercing last year went smoothly, and I was very happy with the service. This review is…read morespecifically about my recent interaction with the owner. I arrived at 1:36 for my 1:30 appointment after calling ahead and being told that arriving at 1:35 would be acceptable. The website also states that clients may be up to 10 minutes late. Despite this, I was denied service and informed that my deposit would be forfeited. When I tried to clarify the discrepancy between what I was told on the phone, what is written on the website, and what was happening in practice, the owner responded by raising his voice, calling me names, and repeatedly telling me to leave in front of staff and other clients. The interaction felt extremely disrespectful and unexpected from a business owner. My intention in sharing this is to describe my personal experience so others--especially those looking for a safe, respectful environment--are aware. I hope this feedback helps improve communication and customer care going forward

After getting my nostril pierced I wanted to buy a hoop for my other nostril that was already pierced. I told them I wanted a snug fit. Well they put on one that was massive and I told them I didn't want it. The lady then said that I had to buy it anyways even thought it wasn't what I had asked for. The funny thing is they have specialized cleaning equipment there so they easily could have sterilized it and returned it to the display anyways. Or they could've just given me a hoop that fit, idk. Whatever

She has been asking for earrings for a few months now and I had seen many posts on mom groups where this salon had been mentioned as THE place to go for kids, so I decided to go for it. I always knew I wanted my girls to have their ears done by a professional, NOT at a store with a gun. The whole experience was so relaxed and gentle in comparison to my own experience when I was 4 (with a gun) or the horror stories I'd heard from my sisters when they had their kids done at Claire's. My girl did great, no tears thanks to the numbing cream, and none of the trauma that accompanies piercing with a gun! 10/10 experience and when my other 3yo daughter wants hers done we will definitely be coming back!
