I would definitely go here again for any of my or my family member's piercing needs. Getting my piercings done here was so simple and easy. I am an anxious person and Shar talked me through everything the first time and let me know exactly what to expect, educated me a bit more about piercings and how to care for them, and made sure I was completely comfortable through the whole process. So far, I have gotten both of my earlobes done here and two helixes. One helix I got done a month ago, but it just got angry and inflamed a few days ago due to me starting to lay on it at night (just how my ear is naturally healing, no relation/fault at all on Velvet Orange!). I texted Shar and she got me in the same day to make sure we got a longer post on there to give it some more space again to swell and go back down. She is super responsive and helpful through her Instagram page, and is clearly willing to go out of her way for the wellbeing and happiness of her clients! I also have a couple other family members and close friends who have had only excellent experience here. Probably the best piercing place you could go to in town!

So I went here to get my forward helix done. It was SUPER painful. She didnβt have the correct tools with her at the time of piercing so the the piercer left a plastic catheter in my ear for a while while rummaging around with her free hand to grab a metal catheter. Which also got stuck. Overall a very uncomfortable process. I was told to visit an APP piercer in 2-3 weeks to have the bar shortened once swelling went down. When I did this, the piercer told me my piercing was all sorts of messed up and would never heal properly. She told me I should have it taken out as it was touching my rook, was crooked, and at a tilt along with a few other issues dealing with the way the jewelry was set. When I called velvet orange to alert them of this they were super dismissive and treated me like *i* should have been the professional and seen this before leaving their shop. The piercing was done incorrectly and that was no fault of my own. I followed cleaning and care procedures only to pay $90 to have my forward helix piercing not work out. Super disappointing. When I asked for a refund the person I talked to didnβt even provide a sense of empathy or care for what happened but rather acted defensive. This was the most painful and uncomfortable piercing process Iβve been through and I currently have 11 other piercings in my ears including rook, conch, helix, and tragus.

I went there today hoping to get my belly button pierced again since I'd gotten a tummy tuck a couple years ago. She looked at my belly button and advised that I shouldn't do it. She was honest and very knowledgeable. I really appreciate her and even though I didn't get a piercing I would definitely recommend her to anybody that is looking!

This is an amazing place to be pierced. Shar exudes confidence and competency. Sheβs been piercing for a very long time and I totally trust her expertise. She pierced my septum and it came out perfectly straight and with minimal pain. The shop low key and calm, well maintained and comfortable. Will 100% go back.

Shar is the absolute best there is in piercing. I wouldn't trust anyone else for me and my family's piercing needs. She provides the most welcoming and sterile environment and goes above and beyond to create a positive and fulfilling experience.

I am so so glad I came here. Iβve had a rough time with bad jewelry, bad piercers etc. After coming here I donβt trust anyone, but Shar to do my piercings. After our first appointment I immediately made another one, she has such a light hand and the jewelry quality is the best. Her and Delia are both so knowledgeable about body jewelry too. Made me feel really welcome and comfortable!
