I'd just been to Venus' sister store location to get a catilage piercing, and it looked so beautiful I wanted a bit more. I'd heard the Maria Tash location had a wider selection of jewelry, and it does -- the pieces are all unique and beautiful, though they range from a little pricey to way-out-of-my-leauge. I picked out a pair for some second lobe piercings, and another for my cartilage, with the clerk's help. Everyone was warm and friendly, and very knowledgable about their stock. My piercer was a perfect pro, and even though I'm a huge wuss it was pretty painless, even when he had to work through some old scar tissue on my lobes. I definitely recommend this place for a clean, pain-free, comfortable experience -- as long as you're not put off by paying what it's worth.
