My boyfriend andI have been getting pierced here at HTC tempe for a few years now and have been loyal and regular customers. They have great friendly staff and they know what they're doing and talking about. I got my medusa, septum and cheek dermal here and my boyfriend got his ears stretched, nose pierced and his cheek dermal. They have never been infected and they are squeaky clean like a doctors room and they go over the healing procedures and everything you need to know. I have been pierced by kevin, JD and richard. Steph is the cutie behind the counter and is so sweet! I will say it is more on the pricier side but trust me! It is all worth it! Beautiful jewelry and nicely laid out. Loyal loyal customer I recommend anybody and everybody to get pierced here! Don't go tattoo shops or club tattoo or anything. HTC. By the way if your jewelry comes out or needs to be adjusted, they will fix it for free if you got the jewelry there and got it pierced there as well :)
