What About Sports or Swimming?
Some sports do not allow jewelry to be worn during practice and/or games. Please check with your child’s coaches about their policies first! We recommend that the initial piercing jewelry be worn for at least 3-4 months before a retainer can be used. Sometimes, it’s best to wait until the season is over before getting a new piercing.
We recommend waiting at least 2-3 months to go swimming after getting a piercing.
Do you offer under-mask piercings?
Yes, we are offering under-mask piercings. As of 4/25/23, we are no longer requiring our customers to wear masks or provide proof of Covid vaccine or a negative Covid test to receive these services. Our piercers will happily be continuing to wear masks while working with clients for all piercings, due to the up-close and personal nature of what we do!
How much does it cost?
Please check out our pricing page for a run-down on piercing fees and a range for jewelry costs.
Jewelry must have been purchased by us, or be one of the brands that we stock, in order to be re-used in future piercings.
There is a $15 reprocessing fee for re-using jewelry, which covers the cost of sterilization and supplies.
You must arrange to drop off jewelry at least 24 hours ahead of time, in order to give us time to reprocess it before the start of your appointment. Please contact us to arrange jewelry drop off ahead of time.
