Here's how it works — start to finish, before you ever send a DM.
Five steps. Read them in order and you'll know exactly what to book, what to expect, and what your ears will look like when you leave.
The Process
Five steps
-
Browse the portfolio.
Start with the work. Every ear here was designed one at a time, around real anatomy — no two are the same. Find the ones you keep coming back to and save them.
View the portfolio -
Decide: a piercing, or a curation.
One is a single placement done beautifully. The other is a full design for your whole ear — placement, jewelry, spacing, and the plan to grow into it. Not sure? The comparison below sorts it out in thirty seconds.

Book your appointment.
Choose your service and time online — appointments are one-on-one, so the studio is yours for the hour. Booking with a friend? Book a BFF appointment so there's time for both of you.
Book now -
Read the FAQ before you come.
Healing times, pain, jewelry, downsizing, what to eat beforehand, what not to wear. It's all answered — so we can spend your appointment designing instead of catching up.

We design your ears together.
You'll sit down with me, we'll map your anatomy, try jewelry on, and build the design in front of the mirror before a single needle comes out. You approve every placement. Then we pierce.

Step Two, expanded
Piercing, or curation?
A piercing
You know what you want and where you want it. One placement — or a small set — done precisely, with jewelry that fits your anatomy and is safe to heal in. Straightforward, and beautifully executed.
An ear curation
You want the whole ear to look intentional. We design the full composition — existing piercings included — choose the metals and stones, balance the spacing, and lay out what to add now versus later. You leave with a plan, not just a piercing.
From anywhere
Not in Phoenix? Still yours.
Virtual ear curation
Send photos of your ears and I'll design them remotely — placements mapped, jewelry selected, and a styled plan you can take to any piercer, or wear straight away. Same eye, no flight required.

How long does an appointment take?
A single piercing takes about 30 minutes. A full ear curation is a two-hour appointment — designing is most of it, and it isn't something to rush.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes. And if you'd rather bring four, ask about a private piercing party — the studio closes and it's just your group.
One thing: if more than one of you wants to be designed or pierced, book a BFF appointment rather than a single. Otherwise there's only time on the books for one set of ears.
Do you use my old jewelry?
We only use new, sterile jewelry from our implant-grade collections for new piercings. We have over 300 pieces to choose from that range in price from $30 - $500+ and offer custom orders for pieces we don't have in inventory. —
What does it cost?
It depends, and I'd rather be honest than give you a number that changes. Your total comes down to how many placements you end up loving, and the jewelry you choose — solid gold sits well above titanium, and genuine stones above synthetic.
Service rates are listed with every appointment when you book, and the jewelry pricing guide breaks down what each metal and stone runs. We'll go through your total together before anything is pierced — no surprises at checkout.

Saline, patience, and hands off. You'll go home with full instructions and can schedule a piercing assessment anytime for support.
