My girlfriend and I both went to get our ears pierced, I wanted an earlobe and upper earlobe…read morepiercing on one ear and she wanted upper earlobe piercings on both ears. We were able to walk in and both get pierced in less than an hour, but they have an online appointment system if you want to schedule ahead of time. Sara was friendly and helped us choose from their variety of options for jewelry, and took the time to quote us. The piercings cost $25 total for both ears and the jewelry ranged in price from about $35 for 2 captive bead rings to about $130 for 2 gold ball studs. Vern is the head piercer and was so knowledgeable yet respectful to us. I had never got my ears pierced before, so I was a little nervous, but Vern explained everything as he was working and even coached breathing during the piercing. The location has a sofa and well decorated interior, and the piercing room resembles a doctor's office, with more stylish decor. Vern wore gloves and disinfected all equipment in an autoclave. He also used sharp, clean needles and not a piercing gun. We were both very happy with the results and aftercare instructions, and all our questions were answered!

Everyone was very sweet :3 Phil did a great job on my nipple piercings. Hip hip hooray :Dread more

My mom and I wanted matching tattoos and we chose to check out Stay Gold. When we walked in the…read moreenvironment is welcoming. Beautiful floors, art work on the walls from all of the artists and giant comfy couches to wait on. We were instantly warmly greeted by the two artists working. Pablo came to speak with us about what we wanted. We sent him some pictures and he began working on the drawing. Once he was done we asked for adjustments and he happily sketched those out in front of us. He was kind and patient with us while we made sure it was exactly what we wanted. He worked with us on placement and even mirrored the tattoos because we got them on different arms. We watched him get his station set up with sterile products and the entire time he did our tattoos he was friendly and professional. We had a great experience. They came out amazing and we couldn't be happier. I would recommend this place if you're shopping around for a new tattoo spot. They're located by Ace and it's a hidden underground parking spot off of lomas. Go check them out. I will note that some artists only take cash, so get the details squared away before you get started. Thank you to Pablo for giving us exactly what we wanted.

First off, the space itself is absolutely stunning -- it truly feels like a work of art. The owner clearly put so much love and creativity into designing the studio, and their green thumb is on full display with vibrant plants from floor to ceiling. It's such a calming and welcoming atmosphere, which made the experience even better. The staff was amazing -- friendly, polite, and so professional. They explained everything clearly and made my son feel completely at ease throughout the process. The piercer was top-notch and did an incredible job. My son is beyond happy with his new septum piercing, and honestly, I was so impressed that I'm already planning to come back and get a piercing myself. If you're looking for a clean, professional, and beautifully unique studio, this is the place. Highly recommend!

I absolutely love going into Evolution on Carlisle. Everyone there is so friendly and…read moreknowledgeable. They, even take the time to use your preferred name and pronouns. Plus they have created a really pleasant and relaxing space with the plants and water features. Allan is a wonderful human being and a great piercer. He chats with me and puts me at ease before piercing me, which always makes the process so much more pleasant. I also love that they offer aftercare products there so you don't have to run to the store. They have strict sanitation protocols so you can trust that your piercing will heal without infection or issue. It's usually super easy to get an appointment with your piercer of choice, or you can make one with the first available. The first time I came I made my appointment on a Friday for Sunday afternoon, quick and easy.

Unfortunately I was told I had to use their standard piece of shit jewelry I order to get my tragus pierced. Two days later the "gem" fell out.

Definitely do not recommend this place.

I thought it would be funny to have tattooed baby dolls who looked like the dad-to-be, so I commissioned the apprentice to draw tattoos on two dolls to be the centerpiece for the table. He ended up actually tattooing the dolls rather than drawing on them because it looked more realistic and had more detail. The tattooed babies were so well-done that the dad-to-be loved them more than any of the other gifts he received that day! I would highly recommend this studio. They are truly talented.
