Client Reviews

"I had an incredible experience getting my floating navel piercing done by Zia! Their attention to detail is unmatched, and they’re extremely knowledgeable about body anatomy, which made me feel completely at ease. Zia was super understanding and helpful throughout the entire process, explaining everything clearly and making sure I was comfortable every step of the way. Everything was so organized and clean, just all around a perfect piercing environment. My floating navel came out to be on the higher-end as far as price but honestly, it’s so worth it! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I highly recommend going to Zia at the Baltimore location for any piercings. Definitely my go-to from now on!"

"I recently got my nose piercing done here by the lovely Zia! They were absolutely the sweetest and made this experience one of the best I’ve had! They went through the entire process beforehand, made sure I was comfortable with the placement-repeating multiple times that it was okay if I wanted to change it, and provided a super helpful aftercare guide that had detailed instructions. Their booth was incredible clean and they changed their gloves any time there was a sanitary risk-little details that showed I made the right choice in a piercer. Zia and I bonded over our Texas origins and they provided hand written recommendations of various places to try out in Baltimore since it was my first time visiting. Totally went above and beyond in the customer service department! I highly recommend them for your next piercing!"

"I got a double mid nose piercing from Zia and I can't say enough good things about the experience.. but I am gonna try!

1) They did not rush and reassured me that they were not in a rush! Saying such things as I don't mind marking and remarking the spot until you are completely happy with the placement. This is so important to me, because I don't do many things just for myself (super people pleaser) and it is hard to listen to exactly what I want and to ask for it.. with Zia, I never had to- they were the first to verbally offer this to me.
2) Told me everything they were going to do both before and during the procedure.. again, so important because it keeps you in the moment and calm because you know what to expect!
3) Friendly and warm.. and this is for both Zia and Ari. Ari was the first to greet me and even shared their own experiences with the piercing and having glasses and helped with the selection of jewelry.

I will definitely be a repeat customer.. I will be coming back for that conch soon Zia! Thank you both for such a lovely experience, especially on the first day of 2025."

"Zia was absolutely amazing. The energy here is so calm and accepting. Truly, I chose this spot because it is queer-owned and knew I would feel safe here. I would HIGHLY recommend coming to this new business. Please offer them your support, we need more places like this.

I came in for a navel piercing and was adamant about a certain spot but, was also set on a jewelry type that wasn't available for the bar length required. Zia was willing to redo the hole for me when I wasn't in love with the location the first time due to my miscommunication/misunderstanding the first time. Many places will display frustration with me for being so specific which can make choosing a place for a drastic decision like a piercing so hard for me. I felt so calm because of Zia's patience with me. They really do live up to informed consent.

They were also able to dye the jewelry to appear different colors which I wasn't aware was possible! Such a cool detail.

This is a special place. <3"

"Amazing shop with an incredible staff. Got my nose pierced and it was the most comfortable experience I’ve had with a piercer. Zia was the best!! Thrilled this place opened up. Will absolutely be returning :)"

"I got my second lobe pierced by Zia. They were both so great! Zia made me feel super comfortable and calm during the piercing. They also took time to ensure I was happy with the placement."

"Zia was freaking incredible today. Such a positive person and so knowledgeable and professional. Very happy with my results!!"

"Zia was phenomenal! She repierced my nostril after my puppy knocked out my old jewelry and even gave me great advice on a tricky septum situation I have going on. Super knowledgeable and had such a welcoming, sweet energy. Will definitely be returning to them!
