Safe and affordable salons that will convince you to get pierced ASAP
Looking for an extra dose of bling? Getting pierced is the perfect option for you.
Compared to makeup and stylish ‘fits, getting pierced is a way to show your unique personality. You can choose from having a decked-out ear to getting studded in different parts of your body. Whatever you choose, it’s personal and faithful to who you are.
It can be tricky to find the right piercing salon since you have to make sure the staff shows love for your skin. No one likes getting infected; no matter how curated the finished piercing looks.
If you’re looking for the best piercing salons in the Metro, PhilSTAR L!fe and Best of the Best Manila (BOTB) have got you covered.
