This was exactly what we were searching for when getting our 6-year-ear old's pierced. The staff was excellent; they were helpful, polite, and friendly. There was no coercion or pressure on our child. We needed some extra help a few weeks following the piercing, and April was ready to answer. We will return if our other child wishes to have their ears pierced as well.

Everyone here is so professional. The studio is clean, tastefully appointed, and was even beautifully decorated for the holidays as well. Chet did an amazing reconstruction on my floral half sleeve, and then added some additional flowers. Absolutely stunning. I loved having the other artists in and out looking at the progress, and everyone was so kind to offer me something to drink and make sure I was comfortable. This was nothing short of a stellar experience and I will definitely be referring everyone I know. My best tattoo experience ever.
