I had to change them out after a few days bc they were embedding and so painful it was waking me up in the middle of the night throbbing. These were piercings number 16 and 17 for me, so I pretty much know the ropes, and this was a jewelry issue for sure. If you go to get piercings here, make sure to advocate for yourself and ask for the longer bars and you should be good.

My girlfriend and I and her daughter went to get tattoos on the 6th of June. When we got in there,…read morethey were extremely friendly and also very accommodating with me when I had "bad luck" with all three of my pulls from the "get what ya get" tattoos. I was able to pick something completely different and was pleased with the outcome. Before getting our tattoo's we had heard the artist Tiffany mention that it was that "time of the month" in layman's terms to the other artist's before heading to the store to get some drinks and snacks, it was mentioned loud enough that me and my party heard it at the front of the store. After my girlfriend and I got our tattoo's; her daughter was getting her's. My girlfriend went and checked on the progress of her daughter's. Tiffany who wasn't tattooing her got a little rude with my girlfriend. I checked out the progress as well and she wasn't rude to me. Just thought it was a bit of an odd reaction to paying customers.

Botched Septum Piercing -- DO NOT GET PIERCED HERE…read more The piercer assured me she was able to do septum piercings and she was confident in the placement of my piercing. When the piercing was happening, it took her a long time to get the needle through, and it hurt more than it should have, but because it was my first time getting a facial piercing I didn't know what to expect. A week later, I came in a second time because the piercing was too tight and it was creating indents in my nose, and she widened the piercing for me. At that time she didn't note that anything was wrong with my piercing, but she did encourage me to manually move it into the proper downward position because mine was stuck sticking straight out. I tried moving it into the position as directed but it wouldn't stay. Initially, I thought it was an anatomy thing, but after looking up similar cases online, I began to worry it was pierced improperly. I sought a second opinion from a more experienced piercer and she confirmed that Serenity had pierced my nose not through the sweet spot, but instead through the hard cartilage. Now I have to wait for my septum to heal fully before I can get it repierced properly. Two stars instead of one because they did give me a full refund and Serenity seems like a genuinely kind person, but I don't believe she should be doing any piercings until she does another apprenticeship.
