If I could I'd give 0 stars~
My friend recommended this shop so we went to get my two nostrils jewlery changed. At first everything was normal and I had no doubt in my mind I'd be leaving with what I came for, but I started to have my doubts when the piercer didn't know what type of jewlery I had in, or how to take it out. I didn't know exactly either, so I couldn't help other than providing a guess. The piercer who was attending to me was still struggling and it was starting to hurt. She asked for help from the woman at the front desk and I knew as soon as that happened that I messssed up coming here, no legit tattoo/piercing studio should struggle for literally 30 minutes for a simple jewlery change! BTW- they were only really changing one nostril, the other side was super easy to put jewlery in because I was keeping it open with an earring back. so they inserted the new jewlery on one side and told me they just couldn't help me with the other side, and that because they already opened and cleaned both of the new studs I "had" to buy them. After we left my nose was SOREEE the rest of the day. When I got back from Chico I immediatley went to my hometowns piercing shop (where I should've waited to go to) and no joke, they fixed both of my piercings in 5 minutes. I'm not the type of person to leave a bad review but after hearing from my home piercer that the jewlery Black Cat Tattoo put in was EMBEDDING into my nostril and I now needed a longer bar for the piercing because of it's current irritation/swelling, I KNEWWW I had to say something! Mind you the total I ended up paying was $100... for ONE jewlery change and even though they couldn't put the second stud in (with two "professionals") This is COMPLETLEY my fault for trusting this studio, now I know and it won't ever happen again! SIDE NOTE THIS DONT REAALLLY MATTER BUT the vibe I got from the front desk woman when the first piercer called her for help, was WEIRD. She was throwing shade about where I originally got my nostrils pierced, just because she didn't know what kind of studs they were or how to remove them, I FOUND OUT LATER THAT WHOLE TIME THEY WERE PUSH PIN NOSE STUDS!!! THE EASIEST TO REMOVE AND WORK WITH at one point she honestly pissed me off when I heard her curse something like "wtf are these" maybe I'm just not with it like the rest of the tattoo/piercing culture but I wouldn't say that infront of a patron about a service I'm helping them with, Idk it just weirded me out! read more
