This is a great question! For a better healing experience we will perform no more than 3 piercings at a time. When it comes to piercings in the cartilage of the ear we will work on one ear at a time only, so if you have dreams of matching piercings on each ear these will be split up over multiple sessions.

1 hour is dedicated to your appointment and piercing experience. You will work closely with your piercer for a tailored experience. You’ll start by browsing our jewelry collections to select the pieces that will bring your piercing visions to life. Once selected, you’ll take some time to complete your piercing waiver, release and consent form while waiting for your piercer to set up for your procedure. They will discuss placement and anatomical considerations with your prior to doing your piercing, and once that is complete you’ll receive verbal and written aftercare directions.
When scheduling your appointment, prepare to be at the studio for at least 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Your piercing experience will be much easier if you take care of yourself ahead of time. Get a good night’s rest, minimize alcohol and substance use beforehand, and have something to eat and drink before coming in.
If you’re getting pierced below the shoulders, we recommend wearing comfortably fitting clothing and avoid anything that the jewelry risks getting caught in or on.
Other than that, bring yourself and any questions to your appointment and we will guide you through the rest!
