Zack from Tattoo Factory (formerly Native Rituals) happens to be one of the best piercing artists I've met. He's very experienced, and contrary to what the other review says, does a perfect piercing job. Quick, painless, and always in the right placement. He did two dermal anchors on my friend's face and placed them perfectly. The entire procedure took less than five minutes to do both. They healed up perfectly with no problems at all. He also pierced my monroe (or 'beauty mark') and re-pierced my nose. The monroe was simple and I didn't expect any sort of problem with this other than placement. Luckily, Zach actually knew what he was doing and didn't place it in an awkward position on my face (like many other girl's I've seen whose are too high or almost on their top lip...) He had me make a few faces at him to figure out where to place it so that I wouldn't look like a complete idiot when I do the drunken kissy face or when I'm just sitting around spacing out. I had my nose re pierced by him because the first person that had done it had placed it way too low. He looked at it before I even mentioned it and said ""let me redo that for you"". I agreed since I had noticed it ever since I had gotten it done. He removed my former jewelry and quickly pierced my nostril again and placed the jewelry in within less than 20 seconds. All free hand as well. It was a lot less painful than my previous nose piercing and a lot quicker as well. Zack may seem like a condescending egomaniac (which he is) but he does know what he's doing when it comes to piercing.
Pros: He knows exactly what he's doing.
Cons: He may make fun of you.
