Rowan Piercing Studio

"Sorry to share this as the staff was very nice! But I’ve seen a lot of kids in here (some very young) so felt important to share. I went in for an impromptu post change for my tragus and conch piercings. The staff here was very nice and quick to accommodate, however the posts I was given were way too short for my piercings. A day or so later both pieces of jewelry began to become deeply embedded into my skin, to the point where they were being swallowed. I tried to remove my tragus piercing and after hours and lots of pain and upset, was unable to. I ended up going to Rebel & Rose just down the street where they let me know that if that if I hadn’t had these pieces of jewelry taken out professionally, my skin would have completely swallowed them due to the extremely short length of each post. if you’re interested in cartilage piercings or cartilage jewelry, Rebel & Rose is the way to go. Not to mention their jewelry is much less expensive while also very high quality."

"The place is beautiful, and the nurse was so kind! They also have a great variety of earrings to choose from. I got a mid helix, and it was so quick I barely felt it. The one thing I will say is the service is extremely expensive. 1 needle piercing is $35, then you have to buy the $20 cleaning spray, and the earring (each earring sold separately). The earring I chose was gorgeous, but it was $99. So overall I spent over $150 for one piercing, not including the tip. I definitely had a positive experience, but it is a lot of money."

"Would not recommend coming here unless you’re interested in low quality jewelry marked up to a high quality price! I had my ears pierced and spent $190 on the earrings ONLY ($336 total). When I attempted to remove the earrings 6 weeks later to change them out, one of the earrings came apart from its flimsy post. When I called the Rowan in Westport to ask about an exchange, I was told that this was not possible since “they shouldn’t break if you remove them correctly” and “the earring was intact when you left the store.” Extremely disappointing customer response and policy by Rowan. Save yourself the time and money and go to a real tattoo and piercing shop that stands behind its products!"

"Brought my 4 month old in to get her ears pierced and the nurse was super patient and kind! The store is ver clean and I loved the earring selection! I would highly recommend this place to anyone!!"

"I have gotten one piercing at Rowan and changed the jewelry for two others. By far, this is the best piercing experience I’ve had and the in my place I trust with my ears. I have sensitive skin and am generally quite fragile but Rowan has taken care of me during and after my piercing. The jewelry is also great quality (even the cheapest studs) and has not caused any problems allergic reactions. I would give more stars to the wonderful staff at Rowan if I could!!"
