It was off campus but only a 10 min drive, which wasn't bad, since we were looking for a place she would feel comfortable getting her first non-earlobe piercing Angie was a great piercer and was very knowledgeable and helpful with me choosing the placement of piercings. (I went in on a whim and didn't know exactly what I wanted) I had lost my old cartilage ring and she has tons of cute jewelry at great prices, and helped me find a larger earring that fit in the curve of my upper ear, and advised me with a new mid ear piercing. Angie offered to change out the earring to a hoop after the piercing if I didn't feel comfortable doing it myself. Overall had a very positive experience and will definitely be coming back for any future piercings and recommending to friends.

She was nervous, so I told her that I'd get my nostril pierced so she could see how it worked first. We ended up at Revolution because i work at Purdue and they said they were fine with doing piercings for teenagers. It's a small shop, so we had to wait a bit while Pirate, the piercer, worked on a couple of college girls who wanted piercings. by the way, ladies -- you tip your piercer. It's customary. If they do a good job, $10 per piercing is normal, unless you're getting a complex piercing. Don't be rude. Anyway, so once the flock of co-eds was gone, we had our turn. I had a look at the autoclave and generally reviewed their sanitation steps. I'm not in the business, but I know enough to at least make sure that I'm safe. I sat down on the exam table, he prepped me, and marked the spot on my nose. It's probably worth getting a handheld mirror so we can examine ourselves without getting up for the floor-length mirror (I don't mind, but it probably will make the process more efficient). I had my other nostril pierced a few years ago and retired that piercing, so I would say this time was a little bit more painful than the previous, but that may be me getting older or my nostril tissue getting thicker (is that a Thing?), rather than any reflection on the piercer's skill. The kid hopped up and was done pretty quickly. We ended up going with two labret studs rather than a CBR. The experience was quick, and he didn't push the cleaning products on us, which I appreciate. Neither of us has had any problems with the piercings we got. I don't remember how much the cost was, but I think we paid around $150 after tip for the 3 piercings. I definitely tipped a bit more than usual, simply because I realize that piercing a 14 year old probably requires additional stress.
