I liked Zara and she did my flat and stack piercing for me. She was professional, kind and very informative about aftercare. I picked a piece of jewelry that was on the more expensive side, but still reasonably priced compared to some other stores I have looked at. It definitely doesn't seem like they are trying to overprice things. This is the place I'm coming to for my future piercings without a doubt.

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.

She checked in with me throughout the session and was super easy to talk to. Outgoing, kind, and so down to earth, it made the whole experience even better.

I was looking to get my first tattoo and had been looking and talking to many places and artists. Since I really liked the vibe and location, I went on their instagram where they have all their artists and each linked to their page and art. I found Breanna and liked her style and art. Messaged her and was able to get an appointment within a week. I told her what I was wanting, and the inspiration behind it. She was able to take those parameters and come up with a piece that I really liked. I was super nervous, having not done this before. She was reassuring and fun to be around. As it turned out, it's not painful and the process was smooth! Definitely go check them out!!

I've been wanting to get another tattoo but decided to go with Lery this time after seeing her IG and being recommended by my sister in law. I contacted Lery and did the consult. She responded promptly and it was super quick and easy! I was able to schedule the following week. Admittedly, I was late for the appt but I messaged her and she was really understanding. 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!

You sign up with a QR code, then they call your name when it's your turn. I arrived around 4pm and waited less than 20 minutes. I talked to some of the girls who were waiting to get tattooed and it seemed their wait was also minimal. Jassy (stabbedbyjassy on IG) did three of my piercings. I got a daith, vertical helix, and lobe. I completely trusted her judgement and I'm glad I did. She made the experience fast and painless. Then once I contacted her through IG for some last minute questions, she responded less than two days later. Overall, glad I came here for the event and looking forward to another piercing by Jassy once these heal. Also glad I saved some money by going during this special event, because they quoted me $75 for a helix and $85 for a daith, originally.
