I've had many piercings done in the past, but none so professionally executed and quick to heal as those that were done at Venus. First I went in to get my ear pierced. Liz, the apprentice, did the piercing, and it was SO easy and painless. I was so impressed with Liz's professional demeanor that I went back and had her do my Monroe. Again, it went very smoothly, and the healing process was much faster than I expected because of the thorough after-care instructions they gave me. Everyone at Venus is very friendly. Marilyn and Liz have both graciously done jewelry transfers for me since my piercings. The cleanliness of the shop is borderline OCD. The jewelry selection is awesome...I also picked up some very nice gemstone earrings. Honestly, the prices are higher than most places, but only because the stuff is REALLY high quality. If you want something nice to put in your holes so that they won't get infected, you might consider shelling out a little extra money for the real thing. Seriously, Venus is the best.
Pros: Professional piercers, clean environment, amazing jewelry selection, general awesomeness
Cons: It's addictive!
