I scheduled an appointment (2/25/26) for my birthday after walking in two days prior to view the jewelry selection. All staff members throughout my time there (both days) were INCREDIBLY helpful and informative, as I had a lot of niche questions with getting my cartilage pierced and working as an EMT!
I came in early (30 minutes) to my appointment to discuss questions and worked with Rennie (instagram: @rennieandsharp) and she was THE ABSOLUTE BEST EVER‼
Not only did she easily answer any questions I had about anatomy, healing, and future piercing options, but she also helped me pick out the perfect jewelry and did not rush me when seeing which options worked best for my lifestyle! I didn't feel pressure to choose jewelry she initially recommended even though I originally wanted something different, but I ended up going with what she recommended anyways because girl is an expert at her craft!
Renee and another piercer even helped me evaluate my anatomy for a navel piercing after 3 larposcopies and while the answer was that "it wouldn't be advisable", I was not let down at all, because both Renee and this other employee made sure that it was with the intention of putting my health first, which can be hard because many piercing shops will do whatever piercing just for it to reject, having you in and out, this place genuinely cares about your health and the longevity of your piercings!
Moreover, the thing that blew me away was that half way through my appointment I found out Rennie WAS AN APPRENTICE?! (Not a bad thing) I was genuinely so shocked to find out she hadn't been in the business for years because she was so helpful.
I fully trusted her to do my piercings and she did an amazing job, I got my double conch done with smaller pieces of jewelry and even though she said my ear might swell, and it could be risky having them done so close, she trusted my judgement as well and gave me all the information I needed to make sure nothing bad happened!!!
she did such a good job that they haven't swelled at all yet, even the same day, and it's been a week! The process was also completely painless for me, she was so patient and kind, making sure I was comfortable which made my experience worth everything and 100% easier! She also mapped my ears out for future piercings just for fun!
While I am moving away from VB in may, I ultimately see myself road-tripping just to have Renee as my piercer, she truly has an amazing career ahead of her and the treatment at this location is unmatched.
Not to mention the brand of jewelry that they carry is incredibly reputable and well known, ALL HAD FLATBACKS (hard to find at some piercing shops usually only a few pieces), doesn't feel cheap or tacky, and is incredible quality for the price!
PRICE BREAKDOWN:
You cannot beat the prices of I'm Just Saiyan, as it is a $25 service fee that includes pretty much any piercings you get at that appointment (with obvious exclusions of genitalia etc.)
For two freckled flat back studs each was about $30 I believe, so not bad at all, making my total price $85 but I tipped 20% so it was about $100 total for both, super worth it and again, you can't beat the quality here, I would recommend this location over every other place in the 757!
