There aren't the words to express just how comfortable and PAINLESS my experience was at the 3rd St…read moreOak and Poppy. Yesterday I got my septum pierced for my birthday. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and immediately made to feel at ease. The shop itself is very clean and welcoming. The jewelry is beautifully displayed. I just wish I remembered the name of the woman who helped us because she made such an impression. She walked us through all the options at different price points in a way that felt completely neutral and respectful. There was no subtle steering toward something more expensive. It genuinely felt like whatever we chose was the right choice. Ivy, my piercer, was incredibly thorough and precise. I really want to stress how pleasant and painless this piercing was. I am talking pain level 0 out of 10. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP. She is extremely clean in her process and talked me through every step so I always knew what was happening. The room itself felt like a doctor's office in terms of cleanliness and professionalism. I wanted to write this because there aren't many reviews here about septum piercings specifically. When I was searching for where I wanted to go, Oak and Poppy kept coming up but I didn't see many septum reviews. Ivy is a true professional in this work. It's clear she knows exactly what she's doing. The staff cares about the customer's experience and it shows every step of the way. If you're looking for a septum piercing and want an experience that feels comfortable, this is the place to go! Thank you Ivy! Thank you Oak and Poppy!

The staff here are friendly and welcoming. I'm giving 4 stars for their customer service,…read morecleanliness, and responsiveness. My husband and I got matching tattoos here and for the tattoo itself it's 3 stars. Today, it has been 3 days since we got the tattoo and although the tattoo itself is small, has fine lines, and is on the wrist, it appears as if it has a smear/smudge on one of the corners on both tattoos. This isn't my first tattoo, and my husband and I have been following the after care and have been careful. It's on the healing stage, but you can tell that the corner line differs and there is a smudged area on both tattoos. For both these it was $240 total and done by Chris. I will update this review once the tattoos heal completely.

I liked Zara and she did my flat and stack piercing for me. She was professional, kind and very informative about aftercare. I picked a piece of jewelry that was on the more expensive side, but still reasonably priced compared to some other stores I have looked at. It definitely doesn't seem like they are trying to overprice things. This is the place I'm coming to for my future piercings without a doubt.

Not really welcoming overall, service is okay but the rates are decent compared to other private piercers I've been to. When I asked for my piercers opinion for placement she felt very dismissive, straight answers and little reasoning, and I just felt like I needed to leave just so I can get out of their hair. I wish I didn't because I am not quite content with my results.. I came for a double helix. Well.. they take walk ins, I waited roughly 30 mins, got pierced, paid $141 for 2 Piercings with 2 studs. I would come here again for simple piercings like lobe or single helix. Complex piercings I would go somewhere more reputable!

You sign up with a QR code, then they call your name when it's your turn. I arrived around 4pm and waited less than 20 minutes. I talked to some of the girls who were waiting to get tattooed and it seemed their wait was also minimal. Jassy (stabbedbyjassy on IG) did three of my piercings. I got a daith, vertical helix, and lobe. I completely trusted her judgement and I'm glad I did. She made the experience fast and painless. Then once I contacted her through IG for some last minute questions, she responded less than two days later. Overall, glad I came here for the event and looking forward to another piercing by Jassy once these heal. Also glad I saved some money by going during this special event, because they quoted me $75 for a helix and $85 for a daith, originally.

Shop is clean, spacious, nice parking. Before starting the process, we got a full walk through of what's going to happen and how to care for our babies piercing. If you're thinking of getting this done, please do not go to a mall or kiosk, they are not trained professionals! Make sure you find a reputable tattoo shop with experience in piercing babies, just like Kathouse!! We had the best experience, babies ears healed beautifully, process was smooth and easy. Definitely recommend coming here.

What really sets Simon apart for me is not just his technical skill, but his patience and attention to detail. He took the time to listen to my ideas, gave thoughtful suggestions, and helped refine the design into something even better than what I originally had in mind. That level of involvement is rare. The quality of his work is top-tier -- clean lines, great precision, and solid color work. You can tell he genuinely cares about the final result, even down to the smallest details. The whole process felt smooth and comfortable, and I felt confident the entire time that I was in good hands. If you're looking for an artist who is both talented and genuinely invested in your vision, I would definitely recommend Simon. I'll absolutely be coming back for future tattoos.

That is what my mother thought decades ago when I wanted my ears pierced. I still have the small, plain gold stud earrings I wore for years after what I recall as a less than wonderful experience with our doctor. However, after really looking into this, I decided that this particular Banter at the Topanga Avenue mall in Canoga Park was the best choice of all. The piercing itself is free when you purchase any one pair of a large number of very pretty, very safe piercing earrings. So that is where I took my family member to have hers done. We made an appointment, and came a bit early just to look at the choice of earrings. My family member chose two pairs (the second was half off) of very sparkly, pretty, dainty earrings. She can change to other non-toxic post earrings in about one month. The Westfield Topanga mall is beautiful and this Banter was pretty and spotlessly clean. Diana, the manager, explained the process, gave us pamphlets and a cleansing spray, donned a pair of gloves, and quickly and painlessly installed the earrings. We were all very happy. Then we went to celebrate at Cheesecake Factory. This can all be done for a fraction of what a physician charges and in a lovely, convenient setting. Diana was not only professional, she was warm and kind. Thank you! I am sure we will return to get more earrings.
