The customer service here is amazing, but I would absolutely recommend booking ahead (and showing up on time)! Hygiene practices were superb and the placement was quadruple checked before a needle even came close to my body. I was asked for input on every step to make sure I was comfortable with jewelry, placement, and results. No better piercers in the province, by far! Read Less

I got my first tattoo here and immediately hated it. My tattoo is crooked, lopsided and very unsymmetrical. I’m getting it removed and it hasn’t even been a week. The experience was great, he was friendly, but I’ve never been more upset. If you want a nice, small, one lined tattoo, go some place else. Read Less

I had my septum and tongue pierced by Olivia here and it was the best experience I've had yet. I had my lip pierced somewhere else and they used a bar that was too short and there was a lot I wasn't told about, but Olivia was very open about it all and before she got everything ready she explained what she was going to do and what I should expect. The atmosphere is amazing, and everyone there is very knowledgeable and you really know what to expect. β‹―β‹― Amazing experience, 10/10 ζŸ₯ηœ‹ζ›΄ε€š Read Less

I've had many piercings done over the years and Julie and Olivia are incredibly attentive and i have never left being less than 100% satisfied! Gorgeous jewelry, a bit pricey, but as someone allergic to low grade metals I appreciate the commitment to quality! I also had my first tattoo done by Dave and it is incredible! He took my drawing and made it even better and didn't complain about my mother hovering! Would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone and will continue to come back for anything to do with body modifications. Read Less

Olivia is a darling; she's very knowledgeable and accommodating. I recently had surgery and was informed I had to remove my septum and conch jewelry. Both holes grew over on me within several hours and I couldn't get them back in. I was devastated. I had previously purchased jewelry from SD at the Maritime Tattoo Festival but initially had the piercings done locally (in the city). I decided that since I was driving up that day to meet some family I would go there for my new pβ‹―β‹―okes. My conch piercing was perfect from the get-go but after arriving home on Friday and taking another look, I noticed that I wasn't overly happy with my septum placement, as I'd had it done lower before and found it more aesthetically pleasing on my face. It WAS well done but not where I wanted it. I called up Olivia and she was 100% understanding. She told me what steps to take and that I could drop back in and she'd adjust it for me free of charge. I popped in today and presto! It's perfect! I had a great experience and will be returning, despite having to drive up from Halifax to do so. Thanks so much! Note: The jewelry here is pricey, but top notch! Definitely worth it. ζŸ₯ηœ‹ζ›΄ε€š Read Less
