Everyone was so nice and patient, which put me at ease as I was very nervous. I cannot recommend Lars enough; they were very kind with me

Then he didn't use the jewelry i picked out and never informed me about that; he put a way bigger stud in the piercing than i ever requested. Then he pierced my FACE not my ear to the point where I got extremely lightheaded despite the fact I have 9 piercings and 5 tattoos. I tried telling him it was off and he completely ignored me and my friends- he was shaking while piercing my ear and had to try twice because "he couldn't get it in". I had to go to another tattoo place to ask them if it's normal and they immediately made me take it out because they said it was too deep into my face. I've tried to talk to the manager/owner several times in hopes that other people wont be treated like me but i've never gotten a call back or response. DON'T GO HERE!!!

Run, don't walk...away from STUDS…read more It is 2025 and customer service should not be that hard to deliver, alas, I've been proven wrong. Is studs convenient? Yes. Besides the fact that my piercer was nice and it was easy to get an appointment, the rest of my experience left a lot to be desired. I am going to include all the details here so that when Annalisa comments and asks me to reach out to share more details we can all know that this is a canned response and they truly don't care about their customers. Day of piercing. They were a bit behind. No worries. I chose my jewelry and was get my flat helix pierced. The piercer marked the spot, though she didn't use a light or anything to check for blood vessels. I'm not a piercer, so maybe not all piercings require that. Honestly the initial experience was more or less fine. It was about one month later that my piercing got knocked out of my ear in the shower. I was flabbergasted because I have several other ear piercings and it is actually impossible to remove them. I literally had to sign a waiver for an MRI bc I couldn't get them out. Studs jewelry, on the other hand, is cheap cheap cheap despite the unnecessarily high pricetag. I was fortunate to find both pieces of the earring when it fell out and I attempted to get it back in. My ear was swollen and then grew much more swollen through my attempts to get it back in. I figured I was causing harm so I decided to stop and go back in. I called to see if I could pop in before I left for vacation the next day. They don't have a phone in their studios. Like what? I figured I had no other choice but to go in and quickly ask someone who does this all day long to quickly pop it back in. When I walked in and shared the story at the desk, you would think I was asking them to perform a root canal. The receptionist seemed outraged that I would make such a request 15 minutes before closing when there is still one appointment left for the day. I let her know that I'd be happy to wait. I was told they have to close. Like duh, I understand, but this will take like three seconds. My entire piercing appt was 3 minutes. Like y'all, we can make this happen. Like I mentioned, I was going on vacation and I didn't want my brand new piercing that cost like $80 to close up. I thought they wouldn't want it either. A good piercing out of that studio is a walking billboard. The receptionist agreed to ask the piercer. A lady comes down with a horrible attitude, does not introduce herself and tells me why it is not possible for them to put my earring in. I asked how long it would take. She informed me a couple of seconds. She spoke to me in such a condescending way using phrases like, "what I am trying to explain to you is...," "what you don't understand is...," "if you would just let me finish..." She also told me that they work 8 hours and have to come back the next day to do the same thing as if they are the only people in the world with a job. I literally have never spoken to a customer about my work schedule as an excuse to not be kind and accommodating. Now I thought I was talking to the piercer. I said how about we get this in my ear instead of yapping about it. Turns out it was the manager, Sasha. I was being spoken down to by the manager. Customer service 101 is listening and she was unable to listen, she spoke over me time and time again using sarcasm which I did not appreciate. I get really anxious in this type of situation and my eyes welled up and she told me, "to stop crying. There is no reason to be crying." Anyone who is highly sensitive knows that makes it way worse. The manager should not be saying that to a customer. She eventually went to ask the piercer if it was possible. Upon her return she asked me to sign a waiver (like for what plus I already signed it for this exact hole) and then tried to charge me a $15 jewelry change fee. I was outraged. This should have been a courtesy given the horrible quality of the jewelry. If your jewelry falls out in the shower, that is a quality issue. While I was waiting for the manager to speak to the piercer, the receptionist gave me a tip for getting it back in myself. Bro, if we started there, this would have never gotten blown out of proportion. So all that said, I will only be going to a real piercer from now on. The quality of jewelry is better. I've had more healing issues here than any of my other piercings. Oh and they tend to be legitimately nice in real piercings studio. Just don't bother. Even if the initial appt seems fine, there are long term repercussions for getting pierced there.

I want to start off with saying that the energy is awesome here. Super chill, nice guys- however, I…read morerecommend only going if you're local. I was there at the beginning of August with a group of girls for a bachelorette. We all wanted to get tattoos to commemorate, and I chose a small moon. Balthazar / Jesus did mine. Im annoyed because it didn't heal well. i'm a strict rule follower, and kept the covering on for about 4 days. Have cleaned it and cared for it properly, yet the inside didn't keep the ink. I talk to another tattoo artist here in Nevada and she said it was probably because the skin swelled and he wasn't able to get it properly. now I'm having to pay more to get it filled. $100 plus tip later + what i have to now pay to get it fixed. I will say! all of the other girls' tattoos healed beautifully. i'm not saying don't go, but don't go if you're help not local I can't get it fixed.
