By APPOINTMENT ONLY

We require appointments for all piercing related services, including jewelry shopping, downsizing or upsizing posts, retainers, removals, re-insertions and consultations. We set time aside to assist each client individually with appropriate jewelry selection including finding the right fit for their anatomy, gauge, length/diameter of jewelry and often will need to assist with proper jewelry installation in existing piercings. This is why we require an appointment for all jewelry and piercing services.

PRICES

Piercing prices and details can be found on the online appointment scheduler. Jewelry is not included in most piercing fees and we do not use outside jewelry for initial piercings. We have a large selection of fine body jewelry for your selection including solid gold, rose gold, white gold, with or without genuine gemstones as well as implant grade titanium and niobium.
