Hello, I recently had the misfortune of being a customer at Pigments of your Imagination. My…read more"artist" was Greg Barone who I had worked up a sketch with. For those of you who don't know, this shop charges by the hour. Greg charges $50.00 an hour(start time subjective), the owner who goes by Hippie charges 100$ and hour, and worker number three charges 75$ an hour. No reputable shop charges by the hour because by the hour straight-up rob customers. If they can't tell you what it costs upfront, hit the door. I sat for 5 "hours" with Greg, which also included him spilling his rinse cup which I got to eat the time for while he cleaned up. The infinitesimal amount he got done in that time($260.00), Is an infected mess, bleeding out color, lines, and definition. I will set up pictures with this post and you decide if your money is best spent at this "shop." Nor I or anyone I know will EVER go there again.

I am new to Erie and I feel extremely lucky to have found Sacred Piercing. I went in this past…read moreweekend to get my nose re pierced FOR THE 3RD TIME(smh) but I promise and swear up and down this has been my best piercing experience yet. From the moment I walked in the door to walking out I have nothing but great things to say. The service that is offered here you wont find anywhere else. I'm from a big city and let me tell you first hand A PERCING SHOP IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE THAN GOING TO A TATTOO SHOP THAT DOES PERICINGS. A huge jewelry selection to choose from and all top grade. I spent a good 20 minutes choosing a ring, I was overwhelmed by the collection they sold & totally unprepared. The ladies at the front were super cool and helped me a lot with making my decision. Although I wanted a higher priced item, I went with something small until my nose healed, and I didnt budget for an 18 kt ring. Even still, I didnt feel any difference in treatment. They made me feel good about my final choice and were very patient and helpful. Missy did my piercing and made me feel right at home. Very down to earth lady with awesome spirit. Missy was very honest and answered any question I had. We had a full conversation throughout the process and I was actually a little bummed the process went so quick as I was really enjoying my visit (lol). The shop is unique and the artwork through the shop is awesome and all local. SUPER SUPER CLEAN TOO! I also love that Sacred Piercing will do custom jewelry for those who need special sizes. I was also told that if I see something I like online I can call them and they will order it for me to buy if they do not have it in store which is super cool because some online shops lie about the quality of jewelry and you end up in a crappy situation. (Never again) Also, the aftercare will include everything you need. The only thing you will have to supply (depending on what you get) is a gallon of distilled water and that's not even a dollar at the grocery store. I've been to many places that just give you a sheet of paper and send you out the door but not here. They really care about you and your healing process. I can go on, and on, and on, and on about how great my time was here. I was super excited to share my experience and encourage others to not go anywhere else. Even if I moved back to the big city I would come back to Erie just for Sacred Peircing. I trust no one else. I can't wait to go back and get my dock piercing & I hope you decide to get pierced here too.
