    When I'm in new places I tend to do impulsive things. I love a good ear piercing considering how decorated my ears already are. So when I seen this place was in the mall not far from my hotel, I knew had to get something done. I did just that. Made the appointment online, which was an easy process. Best time to go is Monday through Thursday during their happy hour. Which gets you a percentage off of your total. To get two piercings for $35, that's amazing. But that doesn't include jewelry. Jewelry is sold separately. Their pieces range from $35-$150 I believe. The establishment was so clean, which should ease any anxiety one may have around contamination, infection risk etc... They call you back, you get pierced, check out the piercing, pay your dues, and walk out. So smooth, so effortless, and straight to the point. I highly recommend studs! Studs, will be my new go to place for ear piercings. Studs, only does ear piercings btw.

    Local mall piercing called studs. Staff was informative and friendly, many available workers ready to service your piercing needs, took about 20minutes from start to finish. My daughter was happy and nothing too painful. I recommend studs from a fathers point of view

    I was sad to see them close the Melrose location close to my home so I was happy to find out the opening one at the Topanga Westfield mall. They were very friendly and helpful. They have so much beautiful jewelry to choose from and the piercing experience as far as superior from anything you would get With a gun versus a needle. I've gotten nearly a dozen piercings at studs and all of them have gone seamlessly. Highly recommended!

    If you're looking to pierce your ear, do not go here and do not bring your children here. I pierced my ear more than six months ago, one of them healed, and the other one didn't. I booked an appointment to make sure that nothing is wrong with it since the time of healing passed. The piercing person refused to even touch my ear during an appointment. She just wanted to lift my hair and look at it. I asked her if I should switch up to jewelry or take it out because I felt like something was wrong with it. She told me she was unable to take out anything because she said that the piercing did not heal yet and sent me home without even touching it or inspecting it properly. I went home. The infection in my ear lope was getting bigger and bigger in the next two weeks. Now we got to the point where it's bleeding a lot. I tried calling them, but there is no one to talk to on the phone. This place is a complete joke. Save yourself trouble and go somewhere else. The infection keeps spreading, they refuse to answer emails or phone calls

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and immediately made to feel at ease. The shop itself is very clean and welcoming. The jewelry is beautifully displayed. I just wish I remembered the name of the woman who helped us because she made such an impression. She walked us through all the options at different price points in a way that felt completely neutral and respectful. There was no subtle steering toward something more expensive. It genuinely felt like whatever we chose was the right choice. Ivy, my piercer, was incredibly thorough and precise. I really want to stress how pleasant and painless this piercing was. I am talking pain level 0 out of 10. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP. She is extremely clean in her process and talked me through every step so I always knew what was happening. The room itself felt like a doctor's office in terms of cleanliness and professionalism. I wanted to write this because there aren't many reviews here about septum piercings specifically. When I was searching for where I wanted to go, Oak and Poppy kept coming up but I didn't see many septum reviews. Ivy is a true professional in this work. It's clear she knows exactly what she's doing. The staff cares about the customer's experience and it shows every step of the way. If you're looking for a septum piercing and want an experience that feels comfortable, this is the place to go! Thank you Ivy! Thank you Oak and Poppy!

My husband and I got matching tattoos here and for the tattoo itself it's 3 stars. Today, it has been 3 days since we got the tattoo and although the tattoo itself is small, has fine lines, and is on the wrist, it appears as if it has a smear/smudge on one of the corners on both tattoos. This isn't my first tattoo, and my husband and I have been following the after care and have been careful. It's on the healing stage, but you can tell that the corner line differs and there is a smudged area on both tattoos. For both these it was $240 total and done by Chris. I will update this review once the tattoos heal completely.

That is what my mother thought decades ago when I wanted my ears pierced. I still have the small, plain gold stud earrings I wore for years after what I recall as a less than wonderful experience with our doctor. However, after really looking into this, I decided that this particular Banter at the Topanga Avenue mall in Canoga Park was the best choice of all. The piercing itself is free when you purchase any one pair of a large number of very pretty, very safe piercing earrings. So that is where I took my family member to have hers done. We made an appointment, and came a bit early just to look at the choice of earrings. My family member chose two pairs (the second was half off) of very sparkly, pretty, dainty earrings. She can change to other non-toxic post earrings in about one month. The Westfield Topanga mall is beautiful and this Banter was pretty and spotlessly clean. Diana, the manager, explained the process, gave us pamphlets and a cleansing spray, donned a pair of gloves, and quickly and painlessly installed the earrings. We were all very happy. Then we went to celebrate at Cheesecake Factory. This can all be done for a fraction of what a physician charges and in a lovely, convenient setting. Diana was not only professional, she was warm and kind. Thank you! I am sure we will return to get more earrings.

Even reminded me to eat and drive safe lol. She's sooooo friendly and kind! I immediately liked her after meeting her in person. She made me feel comfortable and welcome. I was able to joke around with her and talk about anything but when it came to the tattoo and the aftercare she was very informative and professional which I liked a lot. She also welcomed my boyfriend to stay during the session. Lery's work is really amazing!!! And you can tell she really enjoys what she does. She was able to work with the drawing I wanted and was able to add flowers I asked for. On top of that, she included what she thought would be beautiful pattern addition which really made the work stand out more. You can check her out on IG @lerystatts. I would definitely go back to her again and highly recommend her to others!

My boyfriend received a $270 bracelet as a birthday gift, and we came in hoping to exchange it for a smaller size because it was too big. We learned there is a 30-day exchange policy, and unfortunately we were only about 10 days past that window. While I understand stores have policies, I was surprised that Taylor immediately told us there was nothing she could do and suggested we pay a jeweler to remove part of the chain instead. I couldn't understand why we should have to spend even more money to alter a brand-new bracelet when a simple exchange could have resolved the issue. We didn't argue and simply left. Later, I called my mom, who is a frequent Mejuri customer, just to tell her what had happened. Without me asking, she called the store herself because she was upset by how we had been treated. She was told to have us come back and that the manager would make it right. When we returned, Taylor was visibly annoyed to see us. She spent several minutes trying to figure out how she could charge me sales tax, but ultimately couldn't because the bracelet hadn't increased in price since June. The most upsetting part was when she told us the only reason she was agreeing to help was because my mom had called to complain. That comment felt unnecessary and unprofessional. I'm almost 30 years old, and it made me feel like my concerns only mattered once a parent got involved. If the situation could be resolved after one phone call, it makes me wonder why it couldn't have been handled with the same courtesy the first time we walked in. On top of that, the overall atmosphere in the store felt cold. The staff seemed disengaged, no one greeted us, and the customer service lacked the warmth you'd expect from a luxury jewelry brand. I left feeling disrespected and disappointed. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be returning to this location.
