All your piercing needs in one stop

by preciousswtpea

I've been coming here for over 7years. My first piercing was done by Vaughn-the owner at that time-who did a fabulous job! I didn't even know he was done since it didn't hurt at all. Since then, I have recommended all my friends to Body Manipulations for piercings. When I'm in the area getting food, I would always go inside to say "hi" to the staff. They do great follow up--If there isn't a piece of jewelry they have in stock, they will order it and let me know when it arrives. There are so many wonderful experiences I have with them I just can't name them all. I just love them! They're great!

• Pros: Great staff, Great price, Experienced

Friendly and knowledgeable

by ashke

I got my eyebrow pierced here years ago. They really made me feel comfortable (it was the first of many piercings) and thoroughly went through aftercare -- unlike many other places that I have subsequently been to. Highly recommended for first timers. Be prepared, however, for a very long wait. Go in and put your name down, then go get food at the Indian place (Shalimar, I think) nearby.

• Pros: Friendly, Knowledgeable
• Cons: LONG wait
