Hey everyone! Quick reminder that our last day in studio is 6/4 (Thursday) before heading out to Vegas for APP! We will be back in studio on 6/17. If you've been needing a downsize or something checked out let's try to get ya in before we go!
The Our Spot raffle is now live! Prizes include a 1/2 day session from each tattoo artist and 3 $200 gift cards for piercing! 100% of proceeds are going directly to @ourspotkc.
This is all ready shaping up to be a wonderful month 💚

We are going to Vegas, baby!
The APP conference is an intense week of wonderful classes hosted by some of the best piercers in the industry, as well as a huge jewelry showcase. Learning new things is one of our favorite activities, and we come back stacked with new knowledge, understanding, and techniques.
We will be out of the studio from June 5th-16th to give time to prepare, and then unpack our jewelry Expo haul when we get back.
Jo has been twice, and Kat has been once, but this is the first time since 2018 that we get to go back!
If you know what super neat life events happened for us last time we were in Vegas, drop it in the comments. 👀
Whatchu know about anodization? Most commonly, we anodize titanium to a gold color for our gold girlies who are balling on a budget, but there is a whole rainbow of possibilities!
The cool thing about anodizing is that your jewelry isn't painted or plated, so it's safe to wear even in fresh piercings. It's an electrochemical process that changes the way light bounces off the jewelry, making it look different to our eye. And we anodize for free!
We custom fit the industrial (not pierced by us) with white bullet cut opals and added a daith all anodized to a blue tone.

Some of my favorite jewelry right now has these super cool laser cut features! The way they catch light without being super gem forward is phenomenal. You really have to see it in person to appreciate the shine they carry.
Featured here are white gold pieces from @buddhajewelryofficial for a custom curation!

A snug is a rare ask, and even more rare to have the anatomy for! Frequently, we will have to recommend a faux snug, but on this fine day we had the opportunity to make dreams come true.
She came in with a good amount of piercing experience (you should see her other ear!) and was comfortable with the higher risk of complications and more frequent check ins to monitor healing. She also sat like an absolute champ 💪
This piercing absolutely made my day!

Knocked over backwards by this @bvla Starling in grey diamond, black diamond, and Chatham champagne sapphire 😍 This piece is a custom order, fitting perfectly into a very well healed helix as the statement piece she deserves to be.
I'm never going to get over how beautiful it is ✨️
Pictures of her in her forever ear to come...eventually.

I had so much fun with these three lovely folks! Everyone got upgrades to existing, well healed piercings.
The conch is a tourmalated quartz Vision from @buddhajewelryofficial, and is a stunner.
The rook has the Linger charm from @emberbodyjewelry and dangles perfectly.
The helix is a mix, with the top a @divinitymetals Sol and the dangles a @modernmoodbodyjewelry Wind Chime.
We did even more, but my pictures all came out blurry. That happens so often.
