For the sake of your healing, we like to cap the number of new piercings you receive to no more than 3 to 4 in a single appointment.
Lobe piercings on both ears can be performed at the same time, while cartilage is done one ear at a time so that you are able to comfortably sleep on the opposite side.
If you would like to change jewelry on multiple existing piercings during your appointment, you have the option to add on more time during booking.
-
Yes. Every client has their own profile and history in our point of sale system so we kindly ask that all parties have their own separate appointments. You can book back to back and come in together of course. Groups of 3 people or more, please email us for scheduling.

Potentially!
We are able to use threadless ends if they are an appropriate size and come from a reputable company.
If it comes from an unknown origin or is an improper size or style we will politely decline.

At your styling appointment, the service fee for the styling itself is $50. If you decide to get piercings during your appointment, the piercing service fees are as follows: $40 for one piercing, $55 for two piercings, or $60 for three piercings. Please note that we typically don't perform more than three piercings in a single session to ensure optimal healing.
Stylings are usually done using high-quality solid gold jewelry—whether it’s yellow, rose, or white gold. The price for each jewelry piece generally ranges from $100 to $300, depending on the design and company. We also offer premium pieces that may exceed $300, as well as simpler pieces, like a thin gold hoop, which can be as affordable as $50.
For a complete ear styling, there is a $500 minimum, which is based on purchasing jewelry for at least three piercings, with the possibility of adding additional piercings to achieve a cohesive, balanced look.
However, it's important to remember that the final cost will depend on the specific jewelry you select. Most stylings fall in the range of $800 to $2,500 depending on the complexity of the design and the jewelry chosen.
Each styling is unique and tailored to your personal preferences, ensuring you leave with a look that’s cohesive and perfectly suited to you!

Ear styling is a bespoke in person service that we offer. It would be difficult to assess the angles and placements of existing or desired piercings virtually.
To properly select piercings and jewelry for a client, we must be able to physically manipulate the ear.
