My husband and I have both had multiple piercings over the years (17 for me and 5 for him), and HTC Tempe is by FAR the best option that either of us have ever found due to both their incredible staff and the high quality of their jewelry. Their piercers are extremely skilled, their front-end salespeople are very knowledgeable to provide excellent advice regarding placement tailored to both personal anatomy and individual preferences and related jewelry options, and both sides of their team have always been extremely kind, helpful, and professional. They also offer a wide range of jewelry options from initial/basic "starter" piercing options to high-end "forever" jewelry options, but all of those utilize equally high-quality medical-grade materials and finishes. Therefore, although you might manage to find cheaper piercing options out there...please remember that you get what you pay for, and this is one of the times that it's absolutely worth going with the best in the business. After having personally tried everything from Claire's piercing guns in high school to ice cube/wine cork/sewing needing/"trust your friends" piercings in college, to a variety of professional piercing studios over the past 30+ years, I can unequivocally say that HTC Tempe is the best, and I will never go elsewhere in the future!
P.S. We've both used multiple piercers at HTC Tempe, and they've all been amazing, but Aubrilynn is our personal favorite!
