  • I have to say, I have always had a good impression of Halo, even though I have never used their services. In June, I decided that I wanted to go get both of my ears pierced, so I went to Halo because it was the first piercing joint that came to mind. I thought surely they would do just a regular ear piercing, even if it was probably going to be significantly more expensive than the mall. Well, I was wrong. I spoke with this guy at the counter who proceeded to tell me that the shop doesn't pierce with studs. The conversation went something like this: Me: Why? Pin Cushion: Stud earrings don't exist that meet our strict guidelines. Me: What? (as I look in the case and see studs) Really? Pin Cushion: We only pierce with surgical steel hoops or rods, the APA doesn't allow us to use inferior quality studs. Me: Really? Oh no, so you're saying I have to go to the mall? Pin Cushion: I wouldn't recommend anyone go to the mall. Did you know that they can't guarantee every single piece of the piercing gun is sterile? Me: Huh? Pin Cushion: Yeah but if you want to whatever, I understand your situation. It's not rocket science, a 16 year old at Claire's can do it for you. Me: Ok... Pin Cushion: But you know it will take 3-4 months to heal, and it isn't sterile. Me: Um... Pin Cushion: Have you seen the training video for the piercing guns? They have kids doing it. Me: No, I haven't... Pin Cushion: I can pierce you with some hoops and you can take them out in 6 weeks and put studs in if that's what you really want. Me: Ok um, bye... So I was really frustrated, because now I was gonna have to go to a pink and sparkly store with kids hopping all around to get my ears pierced, in that chair right behind the window for onlookers to see. But I was definitely going to go there now, if not just to spite this guy who got all snooty with me over his marginally superior piercing methods. Bottom line, if they can't pierce with studs then they can't pierce with studs. But his attitude over the whole thing left a very sour taste in my mouth, and I don't think I'd ever go back to get anything else pierced. He was very snooty and condescending about the whole thing, and went out of his way to scare the bejeezus out of me about going to the mall, which I think was unnecessary.
