Poor Customer Service Lost Property

DO NOT RECOMMEND AND DON’T TRUST THEM WITH YOUR PERSONAL PROPERTY!!!My review is solely my experience with one piercer: Shane. So I can’t speak for the others but after my experience I will never step foot in WingNut again.
I made an appointment to repierce my helix I had gotten done there a year prior. I had Kaitlyn-she was amazing and the reason I was going back (she is no longer there). I had the earring but no back which they told me was no big deal. I had emailed 4 times with Dave and was recommended to Shane. When I showed up for my appointment he was short and seemed annoyed. He said he needed to disinfect it and I could come back the next day. Totally understand, but I would have dropped it off prior to my appointed had I known. Due to my schedule I made an appointment for 6 days later.
On my way to my second appointment I get a phone call 15 mins before my session is to start. It’s the apprentice saying Shane is golfing in a tournament and wanting details to see if he can handle it or needs a piercer here. I get there on time for my appointment and my ring isn’t set up for the piercing. The apprentice spends the next 35 mins looking for it. He then calls Shane on his personal phone to talk to me. Shane proceeds to tell me it’s “no big deal” and his apprentice is “new and now sure where everything is”. Told me he would come in early the next day between 9-10, take his personal number, and he would keep me updated.
The next day I text at 10:30 am asking if he has found the ring. He replies with “I’ll let you know once I get there”. Finally at 1:30 pm I sent a text essentially saying with the lack of communication I take it he cannot find my ring. He then calls and says he has been busy, had the day off yesterday, came in late to take some needed time off, and would look when he can. Beyond irritated, I show up at 5 pm and demand my ring or a refund. He looks for 10 mins, calls me in the back, and admits he cannot find it. He lost my $175 earring. I thanked him for finally owning up to his mistakes and asked for a refund. He was full of excuses. Excuses that didn’t even apply to the situation.
Had he just owned up to it, or rescheduled my repiercing I would not have been this upset. He was rude, full of excuses (ridiculous ones at that), and honestly didn’t care a bit about me. Don’t care how “skilled” he may be, his attitude is unacceptable. I would not recommend WingNut and I would not trust them with any personal property!!!!! Wish I could give him 0 stars.

Nostril Piercing Great Service Recommend

For my daughter’s 16th birthday, I surprised her with a nostril piercing, which she’s wanted for a couple of years. Shane truly calmed my daughter’s (and my) anxiety immediately. He was absolutely genuine and gave my daughter a beautiful piercing. 100% recommend Wingnut!

Great Service Knowledgeable Staff

Me and my friend went to get piercings this past Saturday and worked with Kaitlin. She was great! Very personable and friendly. She was also up front on cost of the jewelry and on which type of jewelry would be best for what me and my friend were getting which was appreciated. Overall a wonderful experience and we will be back!

Clean Shop Professional Staff Reasonable Pricing

I came here a little over two months ago for some piercings. I typically don't leave reviews but this place impressed me. The shop was clean and well maintained and all of the staff were super professional. I was nervous at first, but my piercer Shane made the experience great. Shane was very professional and knowledgeable on what he was doing. The pricing was very reasonable and I have no complaints. Now two months into my piercings, and I still love them. If you are debating on where to go, go here!

recommend informative relaxing experience

I recommend this place for a piercing or a tattoo. My cousin got a tat here and it was so pretty! While I got my ear pierced here. They are very informative and if you have any concerns they help you. I have vasovagal syncope so when I was with my piercer she helped me stay calm and told me the process. It was a relaxing experience and I will go back for a tat or piercing again!

poor piercing job inconsistent advice expensive

Got a surface eyebrow the end of September, immediately was told after she was done piercing I would need to downsize the jewelry within a month, because it already wasn’t fitting right and wasn’t flush with my skin. I came back within a month and was told by someone else at the same place not to downsize for at least a year or two even though the jewelry was clearly to big. Today I went somewhere else and was told the piercer didn’t pierce it deep enough in the first place and that’s why the jewelry wasn’t flush with my skin to begin with, unfortunately this resulted with having to have it taken out because it was showing signs of rejection. Would not recommend, spent $150 on the piercing just to have someone not do it right and lie about them screwing up
