After having called several piercing shops I was instantly impressed with how friendly and knowledgeable the staff (namely Emily) was at Straight To the Point. Having been pierced several times I was expecting the normal stand-offish-we-can't-be-too-bothered-to-answer-questions-and-actually-provide-true-customer-service-because-we-are-cooler-than-you-attitude that seems to resinate in most tattoo and/or piercing parlors. \r
\r
However this was not the case at all. After calling just to check prices I was surprised at not only how nice Emily was, but also how extremely helpful she was too. Asking what kind jewelry I would be wanting, and if I would need to conceal it work or school, and then providing the different options. She went above and beyond what I was expecting just during our telephone call.\r
\r
I'm happy to say my expectations were definitely met once inside the shop as well. The shop itself had a great vibe, extremely clean and really stylish! My piercing experience itself (septum) was quick and relatively painless. Emily was obviously an experienced piecer who answered all my questions and humored my, what I would imagine to be annoying and frequently asked question of ""how bad is this going to hurt?""\r
\r
My piecing turned out great. Haven't had any problems during the healing process at all. I would definitely go back.\r
Pros: friend, clean, reasonably priced, knowledgeable
