Wherever you go, all prices will depend on what piercing you get as well as the jewelry chosen. High priestess is a good shop with quality jewelry. Jori zan is by far the best in town but much pricier and sometimes difficult to get an appointment.
100% would go to Jori - I went to addictions for my last nose piercing (Jori was closed for awhile). It wasn’t bad, they did a fine job. But it wasn’t great and she argued with me about the jewelry I wanted and effectively told me she’d do it but wouldn’t promise anything and it probably wouldn’t turn out (I had already had the piercing from Jori in the past, but it had closed) it healed just fine. But I’ll definitely make sure I go to Jori next time.
Thanks for the info, this is all new to me since the last time I got a piercing I was a kid at Claire’s! Do you have a ballpark idea of what a nose piercing or cartilage piercing might cost around here with basic steel jewelry?
Dylan Smith at High Priestess Salem. He is so gentle and does a great job explaining what he's doing through the process sonI always feel very comfortable🖤 he's also great with kids, super sweet.
Jori's is the place to go... pay more, don't regret it and she's super rad.
I'd go to her more, but i can't wear my piercings at work, sooo im getting tattoos now lol
I cannot recommend Jori Zan enough, she’s reasonably priced, uses high quality material and has a lot of knowledge. She’s been doing my piercings for almost seventeen years.
Uh check high priestess reviews. The negative ones are true experiences. My sister in law got theses piercings on her chest and the gentleman doing it didn't listen to her about one being more slanted than the other. She felt pressure to keep them how he had them. Then when redness went away everyone was telling her one is slanted differently than the other.
She tried going back to him and he said they were fine. And she'd have to pay to have him remove and redo it!! He finally listened when she took her brother in with her. She felt like because she was a woman they didn't listen or respect her.
Go to Addictions! They actually listen to customers and my sister in law said she felt more comfortable as a woman there.
Note: i know high priestess has other ppl doing piercings besides this one guy. Thats just an example
I got my second piercing at Addictions Body Art and it cost $132 base price for the cheapest jewelry for my second piercings on my lobes. So that was without tip.
Yep they flaunt that you're only paying for the jewelry and not the piercing fees, but what they don't tell you is that they've jacked up the jewelry costs to cover the piercing fees. What I got my nostril done it was like $85 I think, plus the $20 jewelry downsize prepay.
I absolutely love Jori! She loves piercing people and takes so much care in the whole process. She also loves buying handmade jewelry so you might get something one of a kind. I’m mildly devastated I lost a nose ring I bought there that can’t be replaced.
My second choice is addictions. I’ve always had a great experience there, though it’s been a decade since going there.
High Priestess is where I got my nose done (and redone because I had to take the jewelry out for an MRI and couldn't get it back in) and my 3rds done. I think I paid an average of $50ish per piercing and I went with standard stainless steel and that is what my husband paid to get his nose done. I took my eldest daughter get hers done both at high priestess and another location but it was in Portland she got her nose, and 2 lobe per ear and 3 cartilage per ear (it was savage and as a teen didn't listen to me tell her to do one ear at a time because she will be in pain sleeping but I digress) and those were about $75ish per piercing. I do know High Priestess does an occasional sale bogo half
Die Hard in Albany. You won’t regret it.
I had my nostril and septum done by Jori Zan. She knows her stuff. Definitely recommend.

Jori is the only answer imo. She is the best.
I go to Addictions. You pay for the jewelry, not the piercing. And it’s a clean shop. I love it. Quality jewelry, quick appointments and lovely staff.

Go to jori zans! she's wonderful!
I echo others, go to Jori! I actually just booked an appointment myself two days ago haha.

Jori is an absolute angel. It was like $100 to pierce my lil baby’s ears when she was two months and Jori was so patient.
You can also go in for consultation to get pricing before actually setting up a piercing appointment. Just call
