Ryan Smith at Society 9 was absolutely amazing with my daughter during her first ear piercing experience. She was pretty nervous going in, but Ryan was incredibly patient, professional, and reassuring every step of the way. What really stood out to me was how he made sure to speak directly to her and confirm that she truly wanted the piercings and felt ready. That level of care and respect made a huge difference and helped turn what could have been a stressful moment into a positive and memorable experience. I truly appreciate his kindness and professionalism, and I highly recommend Ryan to anyone—especially parents bringing in their children for their first piercing.

I needed a piercing removed ASAP for a medical appointment and hadn’t been able to take it out myself in over 10 years. Ryan was incredibly professional, calm, and friendly. He removed it quickly and painlessly, and I felt such a huge sense of relief afterward. I’m so grateful for the help and would absolutely recommend him to anyone! Thank you again!

Ryan was excellent with my young daughter. He accommodated us with short notice and was super quick, clean and professional. Would highly recommend this shop if you are getting any kind of piercings done.

I came to get both of my tragus pierced and honestly I had a really good experience with Ryan. I've never visited this shop before but I am definitely coming back for future piercings! It was really fast and he was very kind!

Hunter is an absolute DOLL! My normal artist is in Downey, CA and I've even went as far as Tulare feeling like the tattoo experience in Bakersfield just ain't it! Ms. Hunter has done 2 script tattoos for me (so far) and I would love to work with her again in the future. She is polite and professional and did an awesome job
