She pierced my ear from the front to the side instead of front to back and was so expensive for no reason
It's a shame I didn't read the reviews sooner because I would not have gone in for torture. the reason being I had gone to Ray some years back and got pierced. However, this time it was an awful experience. And I read that I'm not the only one. I had my piercing done and wasn't even counted down just jabbed really hard. Sitting my eyes watering I was told to sit still and it was so painful. My nose swelled up and I returned to get it sorted to be told that my piercing type is straight forward and a little mocked in fact. I was roughly handed again and gaslighted for the yelps I made as it was terribly painful. Then to boot charged for the change of jewellery. There is more but I want to say but the long and short of it is that I had to take the piercing out as it started going funny and there was no way i would leave it to scar or worse. I always supported local businesses but in this case please go to another shop. This is such a shame but I can understand what is it that's made this shop go down and empty all the time. I think some training is needed, some compassion and people care and skills is needed for both Ray and his wife.
Customer service was calm, friendly and patient. Sound advice. Very hygienic. Good aftercare. Trouble free piercing and fitting of ring. Recommended.
Fantastic clean and efficient service. They were so good with my 1 year old she hardly noticed. Real good quality jewellery used. Would definitely recommend for young ones !! Fairly priced too…and I didn’t book!!
first time getting a piercing and would highly recommend. professional and hygienic. the treatment room looks a little bit old and tattered, could do with some renovation
absolutley disgusting i had my helix pierced and it got infected DO NOT GO HERE BECAUSE THEY ARE UNPROFFESSIONAL!
Unprofessional and unclean. I went in to find a new ring for my nose. The man showed me a few options, but I couldn’t really see what I was looking for. He dug around in a pile of rings and produced a couple of options I said maybe to before rushing me into a back room to “try them”. He didn’t wash his hands and just put on a pair of gloves. I didn’t see him sterilise the rings which had been taken straight from the cabinet and were not in sterilised packaging. He removed my current nose ring (bending it completely out of shape), before applying Vaseline to one of the new rings from a tub that had been lying open. I look at the ring he had in his hand and I told him I didn’t want that one as I would struggle to put it in on my own. He said “let’s try it” and proceeded to put it in. It was incredibly painful and I shouted for him to stop twice as he struggled to fit it in, which was ignored. When he did stop he showed me the piercing in a mirror, which had been put in the wrong way round, so was incorrectly fitted. I told him I didn’t want this one, and to please just put in the other one. I had started to tear up with the pain, and he laughed at me and told me I was “incredibly sensitive” before meekly offering me a sliver of tissue as I continued to cry, at which point my friend appeared at the wide open door who had heard all this from the other side of the shop. As someone who has multiple tattoos and piercings, I have a high pain tolerance but I do not react well to having metal shoved in my face in a rough and unprofessional manner. He again applied Vaseline to the 2nd piercing, roughly removed the 1st one before shoving in the second. This again was incredibly painful but over much quicker. He clicked it into place and showed me in the mirror. By this point I just wanted to leave and go to a different piercing parlour to have this rectified, so I wanted to exit as swiftly as possible. He saw me continuing to cry and continued to laugh at me and shake his head, looking at my friend and rolling his eyes at me. My friend told him that he was quite rough with me and he just shrugged. At the counter he charges me £20, which I begrudgingly paid so I could leave as swiftly as possible. I said to him that next time a client asks him to STOP, he should absolutely stop. He laughed and told me that the reason it was so painful was because the diameter of the metal was larger than the piercing I had, so “of course” it was painful and whoever pierced me used a needle that was too thin. I was quite taken aback by his abruptness and said he should have explained that before taking me into the back room so I could make an informed decision, to which he shrugged and said he’s never had a problem in the 30 years he’s been doing this. Myself and my friend said again that communication and warning would have been appreciated and is key to providing good service. There was no aftercare or advice provided. The entire encounter in the shop was so rushed, taking about 5 minutes, and I felt incredibly bullied by the man. Unfortunately, the piercing is still incredibly painful and is now infected. AVOID!
Had my jewlerry changed here . He kept pulling on the piercing and pinched my skin with the tool which resulted in bleeding . he was being very rough with my piercing pulling it . my piercing has been so irritated since and its been almost two months. looks like i’ll have to take my piercing out… wouldn’t recommend don’t come here
Unhygienic place. Went to get my bar changed the guy already had gloves on from the previous customer used the same ones on me, in the middle of unscrewing the piercing his phone rang and he went and answered the phone no apology just prioritised the phone call over customer. Not only that he touched up his phone didnt change gloves and came back and touched my piercing with the same gloves. Wouldn’t recommend at all unprofessional and unhygienic
Thank you very much Judy and Ray for looking after me and my daughter so well on Saturday. Shes been desperate to get her ears pierced! The service was great, they pierced both ears at the same time and gave her a little certificate of bravery afterwards. Reasonably priced too I would recommend.
