Just an update still love this place he explained everything on what the process is,how its placed all the goods i drive 45 mins only for this piercing place

this was what my septum looked like before i had it removed

(PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING GETTING A SEPTUM HERE) If I could give this place less than a one star, I would. Not only for the poor piercing jobs I have had here, but also for the owner's attitude and customer service skills (or lack thereof). The first time I went here, I was 16 and got my belly button pierced for my birthday. My dad took me and I was super excited. When it was time to get my piercing done, I laid on the table and as soon as he pierced me, said "oops, you're not gonna like that". He told me that he pierced me far too shallow and that there wasn't enough skin in the piercing. Rather than sending me home for it to heal and piercing it later once it healed, he went ahead and redid it and caused a lot of trauma to the tissue. I had the piercing in for two years and took care of it well but the piercing never healed correctly because of how he re-pierced it immediately. Fast forward to a few months ago, my best friend got her left nostril pierced and I decided that I wanted to get a new piercing as well. I had been wanting to get my septum done for a while and decided to make an appointment, thinking that my previous experience must have been a fluke. However, I admit that I didn't do much research on his septum work beforehand and quickly learned that I should not have gone to him. When I went, I was alone and showed him some pictures of what I wanted. The septum rings I showed him were small and the top half was hidden in the nose since they were pierced in the "sweet spot". He did not feel around in my nose for the spot, he just put the clamp onto the cartilage near the bottom of my nose and pierced it. When he showed me how it looked afterwards, I told him that it wasn't what I wanted and that you could see the entire ring in the middle of my face. He then talked down to me like I was a child and said that if I wanted to get a piercing I should want it to be visible and that this is how it is supposed to look. After he threw the fact that "he is a nurse and knows best" in my face, I felt defeated and decided to pay and leave, hoping that I could possibly put in new jewelry when it healed. He did give me a smaller ring for later, which I appreciated, but even the new ring wouldn't help how low and crooked the piercing was. When I got home, my whole family told me how awful it looked and I decided to do some research. I found a lot of similar stories online of people getting theirs done incorrectly and then getting them redone years later at a different place and getting them done right. I learned that his technique and approach to the piercing was incorrect (I was sitting up for the piercing rather than laying down and he didn't feel for the sweet spot) and decided to go to his yelp and see if other had the same issue with septum's specifically. They did. The images I saw looked just like mine and I am now convinced that he should not offer septum's if he cannot do them correctly. I sat down and sent him a very polite message explaining that I wanted a refund for the piercing (I had seen him offer it to another botched septum on yelp) and we set an appointment. I did have another piercer take it out the day before because I was afraid it might get caught on something while I slept and rip out due to how low it was, and when I told him that and asked if I could still have a refund he said yes, if I brought the jewelry back to him. I understood the unopened smaller ring being brought back, but he also wanted the one that had been in my nose already. I can only assume he planned to reuse it which I don't believe should be allowed. Anyways, when I went in for my refund I brought a friend with incase he tried to talk down to me again (which he did) so she could offer support. When I arrived, he took the jewelry back to his piercing room and then came out to give me the refund. As he was typing on his iPad, he started to say how actually my piercing was right and when I told him that another piercer had looked at it and told me it was done incorrectly, he started to rant on about how piercers that work in tattoo studios don't know what they are doing and don't even have to go through any kind of schooling (untrue). He then said that anyone can pay the state of Texas and be allowed to pierce, and I feel inclined to believe he knows this because he did it. I soon got tired of arguing with him and took my refund and left, but he will definitely not be getting any more business from me and I suggest you follow suit.

Both of my girls have had their ears pierced here, and John did a great job, both times. Would highly recommend!

Picture I took right after I walked out of his office. Possibly an infection trapped inside now.

I woke up this morning and my cartilage helix piercing was very swollen and irritated. The backing of the piercing was swallowed entirely by my skin so I emailed some piercing shops that I searched up, asking if they could take it out and replace it with a longer bar so that it could heal better. John responded fast saying that he said he could "absolutely" change the piercing out. I went there with my friend a few hours later & he just pulled it out without telling me that he wasn't going to put another one in. He also kept mentioning that the person that pierced my cartilage didn't know what they were doing, but I know she did because I got it pierced at an APP certified piercing shop. Anyways, I knew that taking the piercing out completey could trap the infection inside because many professional piercers have told me that and I had done some research about it. He even said I had a "small infection." Most reputable piercers will know that you are not supposed to take ANY infected piercings out because it could close the infection inside which could turn it into a much worse situation. Knowing that he was a professional piercer and registered nurse, I assumed that he would have some knowledge about that, but he just pulled it out and told me AFTER he pulled it out that he wasn't going to put another one in because it "needed to heal." So then I asked him a few questions because I was obviously very worried and I mentioned that the infection could get trapped inside. He said that it was possible, but that I could go to the doctor and they would " just prescribe me antibiotics." At this point, I could tell he was getting frustrated and he kept repeating that he was a registered nurse.. I stayed calm, and eventually left. I looked in the mirror in the bathroom right after, and it was a bloody and gooey mess. He sent me out without any proper cleaning afterwards or even just a tissue or gauze to stop the bleeding. So I went to another piercer after to get advice and he told me that John really should not have done that and then he put tea tree oil on a tissue cleaned it for me really well & told me to message him with any more concerns or issues that may arise and told me come to him anytime when it heals. John did not charge me anything for taking it out, which was appreciated. The removal was also relatively painless, but I just wish he had told me that he was not going to put in a longer bar/piercing BEFORE he removed mine. Overall, I did not have a good experience here. I've attached a picture after the aftermath when I got out, right after I looked at the mirror.

It is too low. I found a similar review on Google the person also had their septum pierced too low.
