Whatever III

I had gotten my tongue pierced a few years ago here and i would like to say big mistake. They had made it so crooked it was just embarrassing to even keep for more than a few months. Dont go here. Plus their customer service is god awful. When i came in no one greeted me, they were too busy talking amongst themselves.

I hate giving a place one star, but I’m sitting here wracking my brain trying to come up with a reason to give them two and I just can’t come up with one. I came in with two friends to get pierced. The shop itself was in total disarray and had the feel of a secret tweaker pad. No music. It’s not a very inviting ambiance. The selection of jewelry and any other item you would go to a piercing/​head shop for is very limited. They do have quite a selection of porn on DVD though.
I made it explicit and abundantly clear that I was going to put a hoop in my lip after it healed. So we put a mark where we thought it would look good and went for it. After he pierced me, I looked in the mirror and the piercing was way off mark. He said «oh I moved it because this will look better. I forgot that you were going to use a hoop.» Why he would make an executive decision at the last moment like that, I’m not sure. But now I’m stuck with a hole in my face that I am skeptical of at best. We’ll see what happens when I switch it out.
So my girlfriend got her naval pierced and she was pretty clear that she just wanted to make sure the thing was straight. Of course it turned out crooked and she had to take it out. No refund. Also, my homie was getting his ear pierced. We paid and then they told him that he had to get a hoop. He wanted a stud though. Even though he hadn’t been pierced, they refused to refund him, so he had to get a hoop which he did not want.
The whole thing was a fiasco, and they have a 100% failure rate, according to me. If you’re gonna get pierced, go to Asheville.
