So a bit about me and piercing salons. I have a total of 19 piercings ranging from ears to tongue to nipples to genitals. Point: I'm far from new to piercing parlors and piercers.
Situation: one of the steps to my ladder had fallen out. Unable to get it back in myself, I made an appointment to have the jewelry put back in for me. The online appointment portal was quick and easy!
I arrived to Adornment a bit early. I quickly noticed the cleanliness the lobby area, again not new to piercing parlors so I look for this. I was quickly greeted with a warm welcome from the person behind the counter (unfortunately, I forget their name). Just based on my initial impression of the parlor, I would consider this a high end piercing parlor. All jewelry are viewable in very clean glass cases separated by body part throughout the lobby. There are couches to wait, not typical hard plastic chairs.
Jose, owner and piercer, came to greet me in the lobby. As Jose escorted me back to one of the rooms and into my room, my first impression of 'A+ on cleanliness' continued. Even though I have multiple piercings and this wasn't a new piercing, Jose reviewed the process of reinserting the jewelry and asked if I wanted him to just insert or if I preferred the counted breath process. I was totally impressed with his professionalism, knowledge and skill.
Working with Jose was like being with a someone that I've known for years. He is easy going, his energy is fantastic and again that knowledge and skill. I'm proud to say that I'm totally going back for piercing #20 - Jose has earned my trust.
