I am truly amazed with True Love Body Piercing. I’ve recently moved to the east coast and had been passively searching for a piercing shop. I stumbled upon True Love Body Piercing and went inside. From the moment I stepped in, I felt welcomed and comfortable. My first impressions of Gabe (?), Mike, and Grey were friendly, happy, and accepting. They were extremely helpful and resourceful when answering my many questions! I was so impressed with this interaction and the overall vibe of the shop that I came back a few hours later for a walk-in naval piercing. I was pleased to meet Owen who, like their staff, was calm, generous with their knowledge, and overall provided a confident and safe space. I had the absolute pleasure of Grey’s expert piercing. From start to finish, Grey was professional, kind, knowledgeable, and educational. Grey has a unique and extremely appreciated capability to educate in a skill-appropriate and digestible way. Grey seamlessly adapted their explanations to fit my knowledge base, while simultaneously being effortlessly respectful of my own experiences with past piercings and providing a comfortable space for any other questions that I had. I felt appreciated, understood, and safe throughout my entire time with Grey. Thank you so much to everyone at True Love Body Piercing. You have made a repeat client out of...
Read moreI recently had my helix pierced by Grey, and I could not asked for a better experience. It was my first cartilage piercing and I have read a lot about the difficult healing process. So I was pretty nervous when I walked in. However, Grey made the entire process incredibly easy and comfortable for me. They took the time to triple-check the location with me and provided helpful suggestions. During the piercing itself, Grey was gentle and super skilled, making the entire procedure quick and painless. They guided me to breathe with them and within one second, it was done. It was just a mere tiny pinch that I would not even call it pain. Afterwards, Grey thoroughly explained the aftercare instructions and patiently answered all my questions. Now, a few days post-piercing, I can not be happier with the results. My helix piercing looks so pretty and is healing smoothly without pain, redness, or swelling. All I am doing is following Grey's advice - not touching it, and applying saline solution spray 1-2 times daily. I highly recommend Grey and True Love Body Piercing to anyone considering a cartilage piercing! Plus, a helpful tip - there is free parking available on Mount Auburn St by the river, only a short 10-min walk from...
Read moreWow, what a great experience from start to finish! We called ahead for a birthday ear piercing with Owen when his books opened and were able to get an appointment the same week!
We got a call the night before reminding us about IDs and to fill out the paperwork online and to confirm our appointment, super helpful juggling a busy house.
Our appointment was easy! Our little kid was able to pick out some beautiful jewelry that is high quality and meant for the healing process. Owen was awesome: he walked our kid through every step of the way and always asked how she was feeling, and if she wanted to continue. He has his room full of googly eye decorations to make equipment feel more approachable for children. He's very patient and kind with a young client, an admittedly nervous parent, and a young and inquisitive little sister audience.
Compared to my experience as a kid getting my ears pierced at a kiosk with a piercing gun to the gentle and empowering session with Owen, there isn't one: the service was all about my child's comfort and it was entirely her decision to complete the process, giving her full control and autonomy. We came and...
