If you live in or around the Boston area and you aren't getting pierced by Dustin S., re-evaluate your life! I called ahead and spoke to Dustin on the phone about getting my Philtrum (otherwise known as Medusa pierced). I had a ton of questions about the piercing itself, the process, pricing, everything under the sun. Dustin took the time out, over the phone, not even 100% sure I was going to get this piercing, and explained everything to me in deep detail. I'm quite a talker so he spent just shy of 12 minutes telling me everything I needed to know.After our conversation, I immediately felt at ease and decided to take a ride to BTC (I went to the Medford location though Dustin does also pierce at the Somerville spot, too.) to check it out. Upon arriving, I was greeted by Dustin and he had already picked out the jewelry he thought would look good on my face, just based on our phone interaction! Which is the first of many things that I was impressed with, upon my arrival. I agreed that I loved the jewelry and after doing my paperwork, we headed upstairs to the piercing area!I can't even count how many times Dustin changed his gloves (which is an AMAZING THING!!!); such a sanitary piercer and this is huge for me, of course. He then explained to me every single possible detail he could about the piercing. From how it is typically done to how he would have to tilt it a bit on me because of how my mouth was shaped. He explained to me the process, what he was doing each time he touched my lip, how he would put the jewelry in. Everything under the sun, I have never had a piercer be so thorough, well-educated, and willing to share knowledge of what was being done to my body! It was wonderful. I felt like I was his only client of the day (which I was absolutely not since he had clients downstairs and he STILL didn't rush me or bypass any question I had!) He took out so much time to make sure my piercing came out beautifully. I am absolutely in LOVE with my piercing. It is perfectly placed, the jewelry he chose (that I, of course, agreed on and loved!) is beautiful and everything went wonderfully.Dustin was the most professional, knowledgeable piercer I've ever been to (and I've been to quite a few) and I would recommend him to anyone who wants a high quality piercing with a sanity piercer who knows literally EVERYTHING about each piercing he is doing. Thank you so much, Dustin!!!! You made my face even fancier than it was before. :) Read Less
