This place is a gem. I do feel that it is short staffed in regards to body piercings. It seems like this location only has 2 piercers, Lucy and Cindy, that specialize in genital piercings. With that being said, both piercers are very friendly, professional and educated about the specific piercing. This is the only place I trust with my VCH piercing. This is my second time getting it because my first VCH closed up within days of no jewelry. For both of these sessions I ended up with Cindy. Great jewelry, but pricey. I will definitely be back to this specific location for another piercing very soon.

Easy peasy. I booked online via website site. I entered establishment 10 minutes before appointment and was perfect since I was able to complete forms and waiver. I choose new nose ring to swap out. The young lady was informative and patience with my questions and gauge what I wanted. I had sticker shock but totally worth it! Kayla greeted me and was lovely with the small talk. The swap out was in minutes to my surprise. The next time I'm in town I will visit for my next piercing.

Visited Sadu last week to get a new earring for my rook piercing. It was my first time and I wasn't sure what to expect but it was great. Everyone there was incredibly helpful, they helped me to pick out jewelry for two piercings. They have such a huge selection of earrings/jewelry to choose from, I would be shocked if you didn't find what you were looking for there. One thing that i especially love is that their jewelry also ranges in price as well so there is definitely something for everyone. The team member that helped me, I wish I remembered their name, was so patient and she had the most bubbly personality it helped to make the experience fun and that much more pleasant. I'll definitely be going back for my next piercing!

Ear piercings/ jewelry from Sadu

I have been absolutely obsessed with Sadu since coming to Charlotte. They have such a friendly and welcoming staff, as well as so many amazing jewelry options. I've gotten over five piercings done with Leda Bug and they always make me feel so comfortable during the process. I'm the type of person who wants to get too many piercings done at one time, and Leda and other members of staff have always told me when to stop so that my immune system isn't overwhelmed and I have time to heal- which I wholeheartedly appreciate. I've slowly switched over all of my jewelry to jewelry I've purchased from sadu, and my piercings have never been happier. I cannot recommend coming here highly enough!!!

Could not have asked for a better place to get a piercing. Yes , slightly more expensive than a place in the mall but the experience and expertise is what I paid for. I will be back for more piercings .

Went in to get my nipples pierced three days ago (March 4, 2020). Great experience, the woman at the front desk was very nice and explained the jewelry options for me. I went back for sizing and waited around 10-15 minutes because some people were ahead of me. They kept me informed on how many people were ahead of me which was nice! Lucy was my piercer and she did a great job! She was very sweet and easy to talk to. Would definitely recommend getting pierced here. :)

you can see how crooked it is from this picture with no swelling

This place looked very established and clean. Loved the atmosphere and the energy when I walked in. The piercing display was fantastic and the front desk people were nice. The only problem i had was with my piercing, i got my bridge piercing done which is the piercing between your eyes. My piercer was Kayla and let me look to see if the dots from the marker she placed on me were accurate and i told her one side looked more off than the other side. She looked at it and I feel like she kinda bypassed the inaccuracy of the dots she places for the piercing but I trusted her to make a correction and once she pierced it and i looked in the mirror it was very crooked. I waited to see if the swelling was the issue but it was still noticeably off in correlation with my face and numerous people noticed it immediately. I just took it out today because they were gonna charge me $5 to take it out. Just make sure you are being forthcoming with what you want and where so they don't gaslight you that's all!

Forward helix and daith piercings by Cindy

I was looking to get a few new piercings a couple months ago and after doing some research, I booked an appointment with Cindy at Sadu. She pierced my daith, forward helix, and nostril for me, and she switched out the jewelry on my existing tragus piercing as well. The girl who helped me select my jewelry while I was waiting for Cindy to finish up her last appointment (I showed up early to browse) was incredibly helpful in explaining my options and what would work best based on the piercings I was getting and my anatomy. I was very impressed with the selection of high-quality jewelry to choose from as well. Cindy came out a few minutes later to complete the anatomy check and confirm that the jewelry I selected would work and whisked me back to complete the piercings. She calmly explained what she was doing every step of the way and all 3 piercings and the jewelry change were over in just a few minutes with no pain or discomfort. She then provided aftercare instructions and advised me to set up an appointment to downsize my jewelry on 2 of the piercings in a month and I was on my way. I've followed her instructions and I've had 0 complications at all - even with the daith, which I've read can be tricky to heal. The downsizing appointment went well and I'm sure I'll be back for more piercings and/or jewelry changes in the future. Overall, I was very impressed with the professionalism of the staff and the quality of the products they stock. It's not the cheapest place, but you definitely get what you pay for and you won't have any issues at Sadu.

Best. Experience. Ever. Ms. Lucy is AMAZING with kids. My daughter is 7 and Ms. Lucy did a wonderful job of taking her time, talking my kiddo through it, and just being an absolute perfectionist. Just make sure you book in advance. Lucy is in high demand and there's a reason for that.

For starters, the tattoo artist ( Tina) didn't speak English too well and was slightly temperamental. I decided to ignore that red flag and proceeded to get a tattoo with Tina anyway... Long story short, the tattoo wasn't that great because she used way too much shadow on my mothers portrait but I let that slide and moved on to the next red flag After 6 hours of mutilating my arm with her over shadowing, Tina decided she had enough and insisted that I come back in two weeks to finish up... Didn't even realize that was a red flag UNTIL... Two weeks later I go back to the same Black Cloud Tattoos to finish my tattoo but before we could get started Tina began demanding an extra $400 on top of the $800 I already paid her. Even tho we agreed the entire tattoo would only cost a hefty $800 When I complained to the store manager about this unethical bait and switch the manager and owner( Lucy Roman) said Tina could charge what she wanted to charge and that I signed a waiver stating that I agreed to those terms.. I personally never heard of an agreement where switch and bait was apart of a business agreement so I didn't think to look for that provision. In any case, Im looking into legal options to get my money back but in the meantime I hope others take heed to the red flags that I ignored with Black Cloud Tattoos unless you want " sucker " tattooed on your forehead.‍

Wheeewweeee! It was such a great experience and I'm so glad…read more I've been wanting a tattoo for a while but I was so afraid I'd never get to get one for two reasons. The first reason was my pain tolerance is LOW and after talking to all my friends who had them said it felt like a cheese grater scraping your skin for hours. lol eeek! The second reason was because I keloid if cut too deep so I was afraid of that too. My husband has a huge tattoo from Made to Last but I couldn't go to the same guy because that guy moved out of the city. My good friend said he had a guy who could do it with no problem and he was right! He was also at Made to Last so it was a win win for me. After I knew what a wanted, I booked with Matt Skinny and away I went down the path of getting my tattoo! I LOVE the old house they are in and so admire that they kept the old charm. It so doesn't feel like a tattoo place. Loved all the clientele that walked in and loved all the conversations that were happening around me. I felt comfortable and calm and it took my mind off of the cheese grating that was happening on my arm!!! Lolol! I'm VERY pleased with my results and I've already talked to him about the other tattoo that I want!!! It's only been four days and the tattoo looks as if it's been there for years. It's healing beautifully and I'm shocked. Wahoo!! I'm so proud of myself and happy I didn't chicken out.

I was in tonight to get my industrial pierced. I don't know who the man is who pierced me but he…read morewas shaking uncontrollably from the moment I got to his table. He spent over 40 minutes marking up my ear to find proper placement. The entire time he was shaking, he would erase a mark he made and continue to do the same thing over and over again. He told me to lay down on the wrong side the piercing was supposed to be on. I told him that was the wrong side and he replied "oh yeah duh I forgot". He wasn't making sense with his vocabulary. I was very scared and that's coming from someone who has had many piercings and tattoos from your establishment. He finally got around to piercing the top part of the industrial, and he then walked away from the needle still visibly in my ear to then mark the second hole which took him another 5 or so minutes. I knew something wasn't right. I thought he was done with the entire piercing to be honest. Turns out he was no where near being finished. My friend got up to look and there was a huge pool of blood on the table under my head and coated in my hair. He then proceeded to say he needed to try again with the piercing. I was confused as to what this meant. I then asked if he was going to re pierce a second hole and he became confused and argumentative. He said he needed to re angle it. I was shaking and felt very nauseous. I asked him to please stop the service and he got more argumentative. I was so uncomfortable and quite frankly, traumatized. I ended up leaving with my entire ear bandaged up. This is completely unacceptable that you would have someone that inexperienced and rude working there. It's a a complete safety concern for all other at this establishment. Also, there were no wavers signed and zero accountability for his actions. He was very cold and seemed like he was on something. I am going to let people know, not to come here for their safety. I would like an apology. His apology and I quote was..."I'm sorry bro, but it happens"... I am completely traumatized. This is what I sent to their IG and have not heard anything back. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! They obviously don't care about the safety of their clients
