"They were super friendly and welcoming! I got my nose pierced, it was super quick and the piercer knows his stuff! It was a clean environment and im definitely going back for more! The cost was 15 for standard jewelry(all nickel free!), half of what other shops were charging, and you don’t sacrifice any quality for the price."
