The shop itself is pretty small so there wasn't much privacy. The piercing was done right next to a girl getting a tattoo and shoppers were able to walk by and watch my sister get pierced. You can't really complain because the shops at Pacific Mall are made of glass walls. The procedure itself was pretty standard. She chose her jewellery, got marked and then got pierced. Everything was very clean and sterile, so no complaints! We were then instructed on how to clean the piercing. The whole process took less than 15 minutes and was $60.

GRAPHIC WARNING!!!…read more First things first, would have given them 0 stars if I could. Also writing this review like a month after it happened so it's not just an angry review based on emotions plus I also have 6 other ear piercing done at different places and never had an infection before. So I went to get my piercing done on Nov 24 (Sunday) and it was my first time at Warrior Inks. I went to get my second helix and conch pierced and I was done by the lady. Everything went fine at first. (So I followed the aftercare instruction from the APP website instead of the aftercare given since it said to clean with alcohol but on the APP website it says to not use any alcohol, and I continued this during from the time of piercing and continuing now still.) The first 2 days after were completely fine. No redness, swelling, pain, heat or pus coming from either piercing sites. But the 3rd day after my conch swelled up and was a little warm and slightly red but it didn't really hurt nor was there pus coming from it, so I though it was just delayed swelling from the piercing and didn't think much about it. On the 4th day after, my conch piercing continued to swell up, was even more red, slightly more pain and still only slightly warm, no pus, bit of blood, but the swelling was almost the size of the whole post (the picture attached doesn't show much room left but after cleaning off the blood there was still little bit of room left). On the 5th day after (Friday), my ear was really not looking good. Swelling increased to the whole post, much more red, painful and heat but no blood and still no pus. So I went back to the Warrior Ink thinking they might need to change the post and possibly there's a concern for infection but when I went, during their opening hours and waited like 20-30 mins, the store was closed. So I went to another piercing shop to have it looked at and the piercer said that the post was WAY TO SHORT and that it SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN USED FOR THIS CONCH PIERCING and it HAD to come out and he would not be able to put another post in because my ear was so swollen/angry. He eventually had to SNAP IT OFF because he couldn't remove it by unscrewing it and it hurt like HELL, and I have a pretty decently high pain tolerance. I asked the piercer if I should go to the doctor to get it check out because I was worried it could be infected but he said it should have been find since the post was out the pressure should be relieved and it should be fine. Though after cleaning it that night I noticed pus starting to leak out of the site where the conch piercing was removed So the next day (Saturday) I went to the doctor the first thing in the morning and he said it was DEFINITELY infected and gave me antibiotic and antibiotic ointment. (The picture attached is how angry my ear looked even after like a dose or two of antibiotics). On Sunday morning my ear started to look slightly better. Swelling reduced a bit, slightly less red and less pain, about the same amount of heat, no blood but still leaking pus. Though at about evening time I noticed that my ear had swelled up a lot more and it started to really CURL to the point where the top of the ear almost met the lobe! Had to go the the ER to get it check out (which just so happened to be the day it had freezing rain so it was a long drive there). The ER doctor ended up putting me on 2 different antibiotics and 2 painkillers. After a few days of being on antibiotics and painkillers my ear finally started looking almost like how my ear normally looks but the swelling, redness, and heat continued for almost the whole 10 day course of antibiotics. Pus stopped leaking after like 3-4 days on antibiotics. Very lucky that there was no abscess that would require draining. Overall HIGH DO NOT RECOMMEND (at least from a piercing stand-point). Hopefully someone finds this review helpful and would reconsider before coming to this store.

I went around 6:30pm, the wait was around an hour, with a long lineup, so go early! The studio is located upstairs, there is seating in the waiting area. You can fill out a form then return later to get your piercing if you like. The actual piercing experience was great, the piercer was very nice, and professional even at the end of the day. It was one of the most painless piercings I've had, with sanitary processes. (I've had a ton of piercings and let me tell you this piercer was truly skilled and amazing). Prices after tax and tip around $32, they accept cash and card. If you leave a review you can choose some free jewelry.

The shop was very clean and welcoming, and I felt confident and at ease immediately.

He took his time to nail every detail and checked in with me every step of the way. Seriously, the demeanor of all of these artists with their clients and the way they handle themselves and the shop is impressive. I will be (and already have) reccomending Toronto Ink to anyone asking me about tattoos and cannot wait to come back for more. Thanks guys!

I cannot say enough great things about Elevated Body Adornment and about Kadie as a piercer and as…read morea person. I would give 6 stars if I could. I have been into this shop a LOT and I've had nothing but awesome experiences. I have complete trust that Kadie ensures the safety of everyone in the shop by being absolutely meticulous about cleanliness. I have some health anxieties and I am put so at ease by Kadie because she has extremely high standards for cleanliness and safety at Elevated. She lets me watch her sterilise all the stuff she uses on my body, which makes me feel as comfortable as possible about getting work done, and she safely discards everything once it's touched a person to further reduce any risks. I came to Kadie initially because of fussy piercings done elsewhere and she went above and beyond to help me with them. When I got my second lobe piercings done by her, it was an awesome experience. She answered all my questions and set me at ease. She was available afterward for follow ups and any questions I had. My piercings are healing much better than other times I've been pierced at other places and I know it's because Kadie is a very experienced, knowledgable and talented piercer. Also, the other staff at the shop are all lovely. One of the other piercers, Ryan, was able to provide me a helpful second opinion when I was having some aftercare issues and do a jewellery upsize for me. Everyone I've talked to that works here is welcoming and chill. The space is very 2SLGBTQIA+ friendly and I love that especially. It's also pretty, bright with natural light, tidy and welcoming. In short, if you're going to get piercings, go to Elevated Body Adornment! You'll be happy you did!
