    lulu ave opened their store on 2nd in july of 2025. finally getting to check them out. what a chic studio! so inviting and clean!! my next piercing will be the conch. ekkk ill be back to get that done. prices are fair and reasonable they have a variety of jewelry to pick from. the gal at the front was so nice, friendly, knowledgable and welcoming.

    All healed and most new jewelry come their selection

    They have an amazing set up, it's easy you can walk in and be seen or make an appointment. They're super friendly and chill yet educated and professional. The sun, the bow , the butterfly , the flower and the helix is all their jewelry . Mikayla helped me and she sorted out all my posts and Made me feel comfortable. I do feel much better. I will def be going to them and I def recommend them.

    ‼BEWARE COMING TO LULUS TO GET PIERCED ‼ I went to Lulu Ave for a flat piercing, and what should have been a simple, routine piercing turned into a painful, traumatic, and entirely preventable ordeal. Within a week, my ear became extremely swollen and painful. Despite following every aftercare instruction exactly as told, the jewelry embedded completely into my ear, causing bleeding and excruciating discomfort. I had to seek urgent medical care, and then go to a different(competent) professional piercer where they spent over 40 minutes carefully removing the embedded jewelry. Both the medical provider and the piercer confirmed that the bar used by Lulu Ave was far too short to safely accommodate swelling -- something that should have been obvious to any trained professional. I now have permanent scarring and have experienced significant physical and emotional distress as a result. When I reached out to Lulu Ave management, hoping for accountability and a resolution, their response was shockingly dismissive and gaslighting. They tried to imply I was lying about my urgent care visit because antibiotics were prescribed -- even though I clearly stated they were given as a precaution, not for a definite infection. They then tried to tell me that they their carefully fit each jewelry to each piercing, which is NOT TRUE as me and the two other friends I went with all got completely different piercings yet the exact same unit of jewelry was used on all 3 of us. They then suggested I should have returned to their studio instead of seeking urgent medical attention if I wanted a resolution, which is extremely ridiculous and essentially saying that I should have risked my health and safety. Not to mention that they do not have a medical professional on site so they were not equipped or qualified to handle the situation anyway. Rather than acknowledging their mistake, they refused to reimburse any of my medical costs (which is an extremely reasonable ask as their error caused the issues in the first place), deflected responsibility, and attempted to make it as though the trauma and pain I suffered were my fault not a result of THEIR error. Their defensiveness, excuses, and gaslighting made it clear they are extremely incompetent in not only piercing services but also any aspect of customer service. What happened to me was entirely preventable and handled in the worst way possible by a business that claims to value client safety. Please, if you're considering getting pierced here, go somewhere else. No one should have to endure the pain, trauma, and gaslighting that I experienced at Lulu Ave. *** I will attach pictures and all emails of correspondence that detail the incident further***

    After appointment

    Such an incredible experience! I'm not gonna lie..I was hesitant to get my nose pierced since most places are also tattoo parlors (which can be a tiny bit intimidating). I found Lulu Ave on yelp searching for more affordable options and this place is definitely the spot to do it if you're anxious like I was. The atmosphere of the shop is VERY calming and comfortable with its decor and music, it doesn't feel intimidating. My piercer today was Alex who was very friendly and also informative! The whole process was really easy, she walked me through every step and told me why she was doing what and it really did help ease my worries. The pain was a pinch but nothing too bad! They do needles here instead of guns which I heard was better anyways for nose piercings. The appointment was super easy to book online for only $45. Jewelry is also super affordable. My total cost for the piercing was $89 (you pay for jewelry in addition to the $45 appointment cost). I HIGHLY recommend all my anxious girlies come here for a fun, exciting experience.

    Double helix, flat, and conch

    The besttt piercing place!! Honestly I highly recommend getting pierced with Lulu Ave. The owners are super welcoming and so dedicated to their business and clients!! All piercers are incredibly friendly and helpful with any questions or doubts I have. I've been here 3 times already and I will forever keep coming back:)

    I decided to get my daith pierced around 3 weeks ago. Healing great. Staff were super friendly and process was smooth! Only thing I do have to note: I'm not a piercer. I don't know if my opinion would have been the best course of action but I will share regardless. It's a very difficult place to see. Due to this, it was a very "trust the process" situation (which I don't mind). I feel like after taking a closer look...the entry point is a little too shallow (more towards the ridge than that sweet spot). From a regular side POV I feel like it could have been pierced a little "deeper" as shown. Otherwise... from a side POV it looks quite good and I think that's what matters!

    Customer service is great! The piercing was painless but the jewelry kept falling out which is why I'm not giving 5 stars.

He said that he would change to a shorter post if I came back in a month. This was $150, plus tip. After a couple of weeks, the earrings continued to look ridiculous, as they appeared to be falling out of my ears. I called and explained the problem. They said I could walk in any time during open hours. When I did, they said I could get a "discount" and pay $63 to replace the posts that were too long from day one. This did not include the decorative part of the earrings, only the 1/8" posts. At no time, on the day of piercing, or on the phone call, was there mention of additional fees for earrings that were too long when they were 1st placed. If you want to pay a hefty amount and your piercings to look idiotic, here's your place.

I asked the front desk worker if she could recommend another nearby studio, and she straight up said that wasn't part of her job. I'm sorry, but if you're working the front desk in customer service, isn't your role literally to help customers? Even just a simple suggestion or showing some willingness to help would've gone a long way. The attitude came off dismissive and unhelpful, which completely ruined the experience for me. Definitely expected more professionalism.

My little brother has a few tattoos by Andrew and only has the very best things to say, plus his tattoos and the line work look SO so good... so when my sister and I recently visited said brother in Long Beach, we had to put Retro Row Ink on the agenda. This tattoo shop is one big open room with maybe 8-10 artist-stations throughout. Everything is super clean, colorful, and welcoming, and of course there's tons of beautiful artwork by the resident tattoo artists across the walls. You gotta browse and enjoy all the different talent! My sister got a couple small tattoos, some script and then her daughters' initials worked into a tattoo she already has. Andrew sent us a link to a website where we could search and select fonts, but if you need ideas your tattoo artist will definitely have them! I like the idea of tiny tattoos on my hands/fingers, just one tiny step at a time, hahah. I decided to get a single teensy star, which I now call the North star. It looks like a classic, Christmassy twinkle star... or what a single light looks like in the dark when you have an astigmatism, ha. ANYWAY, it's the perfect tiny little sparkle and Andrew was able to draw it with the tiniest, finest little lines. I love it. I'll see how it heals and how the ink takes to my hand-skin, but I'm already making plans for my next Long Beach trip so I can see Andrew again!
