  • **Update: For those who don't know, anodized titanium loses it' color. I had a piercing from here in teal and half of it turned purple. They offered to re-color it at a cost. I'm not very happy about that... I think they should warn people that this is a risk before you pay $83 for a premium piercing. Better off to go with Gold at that price, as it is the safest material for piercings and it can be cleaned to restore its lustre at home... The guys here are very nice ( if not 100% honest and open about their products). The shop is clean and they do make you feel very welcome. The main reason for my complaint is: There isn't any benefit to the titanium (in terms of infection risk and healing time) - unless you are allergic to Stainless steel - and it's much more expensive. And I feel like I should have been told I wasn't a good candidate and that the healing was likely to take a lot longer for me. I went in about 2 months ago to get my navel re-pierced. It closed up after months of infection about 10 years ago. The piercing itself was very painful and took a long time - probably because of the old scar tissue. When I went to cash out , I was surprised to find the already steep price of $75 was not including tax - so I shelled out $83. That's almost double what other, reputable piercing places cost. I figured it was worth it because Six said the piercing would heal better this time around - with the fancy Titanium barbell. Two months later and it is infected and oozing nasty, smelly yellow pus. Not his fault - granted. I am only upset because I was told it would heal in 4-6 weeks - but I've read online it is more common for it to take 5 months to a year to heal the navel (one of the most easily infected areas). Also, i read that some people shouldn't get piercings if their upper and lower navel skin touches when they sit down - which is the case with me. I think it's still a good shop - very clean and pleasant - and he has offered to look at the piercing and advise me on further care, but there is NO BENEFIT to Titanium over the much cheaper stainless steel jewelry (in terms of risk of infection and healing time). Plus, anodized Titanium loses its color, so if you don't like constantly getting your piercings fixed/changed, go with the plain silver-coloured piercing...
