My experience at Marigold Adornment today, was 100 per cent completely wonderful, and absolutely amazing!! I cannot rave enough the space is meticulously clean, with everything staged and arranged to maximize your comfort and your time while there. Upon entering the door, I felt the most beautiful welcoming energy.....as I was greeted by two of the warmest, most kindest people //staff members. Their expertise and knowledge was of the highest level (I appreciated that so so much and knew I was in THE BEST of hands!!) I received two piercings during my visit: a Helix, and Naval. They made sure my naval jewel would fit me perfectly(It does it's so exquisite and looks like I've always had it, and that it was created just for my body), and, they also attentively assisted me in making sure I found exactly what my heart desired for my Helix piercing as well!! (Jewelry selection is just awesome~ I mean, where else could I have found a stunningly faceted, gem grade Peachy//Pink Imperial Topaz set in pure Rose Gold??? Almost too gorgeous to be true....like it was always there and meant for my ear :): ). Ari preformed the piercings for me, and all I can say, is he is incredible!! He made sure I was totally at ease, communicated clearly with me the whole time, and when it came down to receiving the actual piercings themselves, and placing my jewelry in~ I simply knew with no doubt, there is NO substitute for going to a piercer with that much knowledge and experience!! THE END. Ari set the tone for creating a very special memory as my husband and I were celebrating our anniversary today, and this was part of that celebration!! My husband was able to be seated in the room with me, which also meant a great deal to the both of us From our hearts to everyone at Marigold Adornment: We thank you..... TRULY.....it was outstanding you guys!!!...
Read moreI see Erica at Marigold Adornment for all of my piercings. Not only are they extremely professional, knowledgeable, nonjudgmental, and supportive of all my endless piercing desires - they’re an extremely kind soul, super fun, and a pleasure to be around. Of course, all piercings are painful (after all, we are voluntarily asking to have a needle inserted into our bodies) - but with Erica’s many years of experience, somehow the experience is always quick, as painless as possible, and I’m always glowing with the end result. They’re also really fun to choose new jewelry with - they have an awesome personal aesthetic too, so I trust them to help me choose awesome jewelry.
About the studio - MA is the most professional and only APP (Google it lol) studio in Vermont. It is highly worth the trek to Montpelier to see these people - going to a reputable piercer not only saves time and effort in the long run, but also guarantees great results and a better healing process. I’ve never gotten pierced by anyone other than Erica but the vibes I have gotten from Michael and Jess have always been 💯 A+ place, A++ people
Also I feel it needs to be said that high quality jewelry is very important in terms of body piercing and MA has no shortage of amazing pieces. Also, although it’s always an investment (and worth it), I feel they have a vast array of price ranges that still fit within the realm of safe body jewelry and have been absolutely workable and nonjudgmental with whatever my budget for the day has been - without ever pushing higher price points.
I just love this place and...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of getting my nostril pierced with Ari. I am so unbelievably happy with the entirety of my experience that Marigold Adornment is going to be the only place I go to for piercings (and probably tattoos, too - I picked up a print of one of the owner's art pieces in the shop!).
Ari was genuinely kind, knowledgeable, and exceptional with placement. The jewelry options are high quality, there's a good variety (and varying price points), and a lot of unique pieces are offered (I got a honeycomb!)
The environment is safe, clean & inclusive. You'll feel at home whether it's your first piercing or your tenth. Ari took the time to explain everything to me without any kind of shame or judgment, and allowed space for questions. When it came time for the piercing, he explained the whole process, and made sure I felt in control (also of note, I want to have a ring rather than a stud in the future, and Ari considered that in his placement, even drawing where the ring would go and making sure I approved of the placement first - he got it right the first go.)
I have a tiny nose and I was worried about how it would look but honestly it looks amazing and it's 100% because Ari put it in the perfect place.
I had a friend come with me, and now she's going to get pierced next month after witnessing my experience.
The experience didn't take long at all, but there was no feeling of being rushed - just a friendly and inclusive environment that made me feel good about my decision in every step of the process. My piercing is healing great. The picture...
