Andromeda Studio 33,

33 St Marks Pl, New York, NY 10003, United States

"I would not get a nose piercing here. They gave me a corkscrew nose stud that didn’t heal after 5 months. I took care of my piercing twice a day religiously. I went to Jewels across the street for a nose bone, and it healed within 2 weeks. I’ve been to two piercing shops since Andromeda, and they both commented on the bad angle and awkward placement of my piercing. It makes it super hard to change my piercing, and the placement doesn’t look good. Both shops said the corkscrew stud is ancient and not recommended. I’d recommend Jewels or Refinery instead! Carmen was a saint and did answer all my questions, hence the 2 stars!"

"My go to place to get pierced. Ive gotten pierced by both Natasha and carmen who are both amazing. Yesterday I went with my best friend and she was nervous but carmen did a great job!! All my piercings heal perfectly now bc of Andromeda."

"Carmen is truly an icon with a needle. She did all three of my helixs’ (cartilage) and my septum and they healed so well! It was a quick pierce, easy and not as painful as I thought it would be. She knows her stuff and eats it up!! I’m definitely coming back to her for my other piercings. PERIODT"

"I’ve never been in so much pain while getting a piercing. I have seven other piercings and three cartilage ones and they’ve never hurt like this. She kept squeezing the piercing right after she pierced it. Dropped the backing three times, took out the earring right after piercing. There was blood everywhere. I’m just in shock."

"I went to this place for a helix piercing the one I had on the top I previous had. When I went there I told her I wanted a stacked piercing so that it would match on the top. She put my piercing in the wrong place and it doesn’t match the one on the top. And in the picture you can see that she let me leave the shop with blood dripping down my ear. By the time I got home and realized there was dry blood all over my ear. I have never experienced such bad service!! I do not recommend this piercing place to anyone. The lady on the phone reused to give me my money back even when I explained to her that what she did was wrong and not what I asked for."
