    Would it be possible to get my soon to be 9 month old ears pierced?

    Absolutely! Please give me a call to get scheduled, 301-788-8413, or message me on Instagram: piercing.joy

    Is there an age limit for nose/ear piercings? like do i have to be over a certain age (i'm 14)

    Hi Eden! Thanks for your inquiry. The legal age of consent for piercings in Maryland is 16. If you have parental or guardian approval you can get it done though!

    My nose stud fell out and I couldn't get it back in without the needle guide. Jenna saw me right…read moreaway and put it back in. Super quick, nice, professional. And there was no charge. Highly recommend supporting this place. Demetrias at the front desk was also very helpful.

    I'm not one to write reviews, but I attended this business a few days ago (12/29/24 around 11am)…read moreand still cannot shake how unprofessional my experience was. I came in with a simple request, I lost the back of my nostril piercing and needed a replacement. I even called ahead with what my problem was and they said they could help me. To start, they didn't ask for my ID once, and I am a 20 y/o 5ft woman, I look pretty young and am agreeable and shy. They told me that it probably wasn't a good idea to do the stud, because they weren't sure if my top would fit into their backings (threadless nostril jewelry is pretty standard but okay) and that they don't sell the backs separately (fair enough... I believed that they were trying to save me money). So they offered a hoop. I've been interested in a hoop for awhile so I hesitantly agreed and asked for the smallest option. It looked pretty big in my hand, so I asked again if they were sure the stud would be a bad idea (they said yes) and if they have a smaller hoop. I was brought into the back room where I said again the hoop seems too big for what I'm wanting, but the piercer just wanted to get it done. No offer to hold up a mirror to test the jewelry, which should be the bare minimum. After an aggressive insertion, I look in the mirror and burst into tears. It was too big and bleeding and hurt so bad. So then magically, they offered to sell a cheap stud to me (which is all I was wanting in the first place). She takes out the hoop, and tries to shove in the back of the stud without properly threading it (it obviously didn't work with more blood and pain), until she tried again with the threading. Of course, my gem fit perfectly in the backing. And of course, I still had to pay for both the hoop, stud, and their time. They just wanted to make a sale on the $30 dollar hoop instead of the $15 stud. Even grosser is beforehand they said that doing the hoop would be "saving me money" since they don't sell the backings of studs separately from the gem or ball (even though come to find it was half of what the hoop was). I originally felt that it was my fault my experience was so traumatic, but it is the professional's responsibility to make their customer comfortable and confident in their decision, especially when they are clearly nervous/hesitant/asking for other options repeatedly. And when you are in a line of work working with people's bodies. In conclusion, it was rushed, unnecessarily painful, unprofessional, expensive, and most of all deceptive. I feel violated. And to top it all off, they threw the 14k gold earring I had in my nose as a placeholder when I arrived in the garbage (she fished it out of there for me, but come on). Do better.

    The service here was by far the worst I have experienced during a piercing. I felt unwelcome and…read moreuncomfortable throughout the entire process. The costumer service was extremely poor. While I was doing the paperwork before getting pierced the two employees were very rude to me and my guardian. They made no effort to make me feel safe during the process. Both of them never made eye contact with us. Also, one of them was very uneducated on what to do. I asked for a "mid" which they told me was a cartilage piercing. The employee marked my ear and then proceeded to prepare the gun. During the piercing I was never told when it would happen she just did it. Afterwards I was unhappy with the result but felt so unwanted that I simply walked away in tears. The piercing was only on my lob and not even on the marking she had made. I would not recommend to anyone.

    I had an amazing experience with a representative here at the Lake Forest Mall. (Didn't grab her…read morename but I like to give credit where credit is due: Assoc# 537164) She was very professional and took care of my needs very efficiently. I had misplaced my warranty receipt for a belly ring that I had purchase at the Wheaton location and thought I'd have to take another day to resolve my dilemma but through her excellent customer service she handled the problem. I love Pagoda and purchase all of my body jewelry from their locations. Their warranty is excellent and definitely recommend it for the few extra bucks especially on the expensive white gold pieces. I've been one of their customer for over 4 years now and never thought to leave a review for any other location (Montgomery & Wheaton) but this one representative certainly made the process seamless. I appreciate her efforts in making my experience worth wild and will continue to remain a customer. Thank You.
