This is my first piercing in a long long time, but the piercer Matt Holmes did a wonderful job. He was enthusiastic and explained everything very clearly. The environment was incredibly clean and he sterilized the jewelry in front of me. Which as a bit of a germaphobe I appreciate.He really took his time helping me find the perfect placement on my nose for the piercing, and it looks even better than I could have hoped. The jewelry selection here is great. I found this cute little turquoise stud, which was cuter than anything I could find online.10 out of 10 would go again. This place knows there stuff, and that’s the kind of service you want when putting another hole in your head.
I had some piercings done today and I have to say it was an amazing experience. Matt was incredibly friendly, professional and reassuring. The shop is so beautiful and clean and it really makes you feel so welcome and comfortable. The piercing was quick and I only felt some mild discomfort. I walked out so happy and immediately had to write this review. If you are wanting to get anything done I would 100% recommend this place.!
This place is awesome! Mariel was able squeeze me in and save my nose piercing I got somewhere else. Her place is beautiful and the jewelry she has is gorgeous! She helped me pick a beautiful replacement jewelry piece for my nose and I love it! Thank you so much Agave in Bloom. I’ll be back for my check up and most definitely some more piercings!
Matt was absolutely WONDERFUL! My 12 year old was having her ears re-pierced after having problems with her initial piercing at age 6. We decided to go to a piercing shop rather than somewhere that uses a piercing gun after researching the subject & the issues we had before. Best decision ever! Great experience & Matt explained that her holes were still there & he just needed to follow them through! He explained everything & made my daughter feel very comfortable. I was amazed that everything happened exactly how he explained it. She is so happy & no issues. Would highly recommend!
I love love love Agave I’m Bloom!! They are always amazing there. They are so knowledgeable and have a great selection!!! It’s so amazing there half the time I get in my car and my phone wants me to go there! I love it there. There is no place I would trust more to get holes put in my body!!
I went in on 9/30 but I have to post!!Matt was so great at making me feel comfortable about my first piercing! He answered all of my questions and concerns I had and has the experience to back it up. I had a great time and I can’t wait to further my business with Agave in the near future.Thank you to the friendly staff! :)
Mom and I ALWAYS enjoy going to this wonderful jewelry store for so many reasons the friendly staff beautiful jewelry its just fun being there getting a piercing picking jewelry Lots of laughs with authentic people🥰
Agave in Bloom is clean, professional, and absolutely gorgeous inside. Mariel has helped me with all of my rose gold jewelry, and I’ve recently taken both of my teenage daughters to her for piercings. I will never go anywhere else. You get what you pay for when it comes to quality piercing and jewelry. My advice… save up and come to Agave in Bloom!
Mariel is by far the best piercer I’ve ever met. She’s quick, kind, professional, organized, and incredibly sanitary. The jewelry selection is huge, with great quality for any budget. She spends time making sure the placement is just right and explains anything you want to know. I won’t go anywhere else.
I had my original nose piercing done by Agave when it was in a different building a few years ago. I had a fabulous experience then. She has the best selection of jewelry, is super clean and professional, and very gentle and kind.I managed to knock it out recently and couldn’t get it back in myself. She was able to get me in quickly, had the original jewelry I loved and had lost, and managed the replace it for me. This was all during the worst of Covid restrictions. I can’t say enough good things about this place!She also gave excellent directions to her new tucked away little studio. It’s so lovely!
Absolutely fantastic, first off the place is beautiful and the jewelry is gorgeous and there’s a wide selection, second I went there with my mom who was actually trying to talk me out of getting a belly button piercing and ended up getting one herself because of how great Matt was! He was absolutely professional and knew what he was doing and clearly experienced, it was painless and he made us both feel very comfortable and took his time, it did not feel rushed it was very welcoming and we will not be going to any other place for any piercings ever, 11/10 stars definitely recommend!
Hidden Treasure!We had such a beautiful experience!A very special Thank you to Matt Holmes, for taking such great care of my little girl as I let her go and watch her grow!Im glad my daughter got her septum pierced here. You only get one first time, and this was phenomenal. I walked in with motherly skepticism and hesitation, but was immediately put to ease. Warm welcoming office space was clean and well lit. Compassionate, knowledgeable staff that seem to go above and beyond like its second nature. You can tell they really love what they do.Matt was professional, fun, and easy to talk to. He took time to answer every single question we had. I like his communication style, he got her full attention ensuring she was well versed in healing and care essentials. He explained things as he went, and put her in charge of her face and the pace.This was very different from my own experiences. I am so blessed my daughter included me in this, I had so much fun and we both learned a lot. Once upon a time, I was 13. I got most of my piercings at slumber parties with ice, apples, and the sharpest safety pin we could find. Not exactly ideal. Im so greatful shes open to sharing this part of her growing up with me.Thanks for all you do! ❤
I am a newer client as I have just recently moved up to Oregon. I have never had a jewelry/piercing experience as the one provided here. The service is untouchable! From the very beginning you are treated as an old family friend just in for a visit. She makes things so warm and comfortable. The jewelry is beautiful and she will actually give you an opinion with options, which is very hard to find. I am 5 piercings in and couldnt be happier. I will only be coming here for me and anyone else in my family. My mother is already a client, and my daughter is coming up to the right age.So wonderful!! You just keep doing what your doing.
The friendliest, most gentle and understanding piercer in the whole valley. They have the BEST selection of jewelry and price. She even fixes jewelry I got from someone else in Ashland and made it so much better! Recommend 10/10
I brought my daughter for a septum piercing and was so impressed by the calm beauty of the studio and the confidence and professionalism of the staff. She did a great job and my daughter loves her piercing. She hasnt had any trouble with it at all.
Mariel has a beautiful shop with gorgeous high-end jewelry. If youre looking for a professional, educated, friendly piercer, endless jewelry options, and stellar sterile technique, Agave In Boom is where its at. I would never go anywhere else in Southern Oregon for my piercings.
OMG best piercing experience ever! My piercer was Matt and he is not only very knowledgeable and experienced in his craft he is also so easy to talk to and really puts your nerves at ease. I had such a great experience that I almost forgot that I was having a needle stabbed into me 3 times for the 3 piercings I got. The jewelry is gorgeous and you get what you pay for which is really high quality gorgeous jewelry. I am so inlove with my piercings I couldnt be happier. I will definitely be going back and I highly recommend agave in bloom and Matt as an excellent piercer and a good resource for any questions you may have about piercing..
I LOVE MARIEL!! I’ve never gotten anything else pierced before besides my ear lobes when I was 8 years old. I’m 25 years old now. I’ve had my helix peirced for roughly 6 weeks now and it has healed perfectly with no complications. Mariel was very sanitary and she pierced quick and nearly pain free. She also double checked with me that it was in the spot I wanted it before she pierced. On a pain scale of 1-10 I would say this was a 2.5. It really didn’t hurt, at least not for me. Mariel answered all my concerns and helped me feel relaxed (I was super anxious and worried about a lot of things). They gave me a packet to take home for after care, which was useful. I would definitely recommend!!! The price of the piercing itself was $40, plus a tip. The most expensive part was the piece of jewelry. This shop has high quality pieces, which you kind of need to pierce clean. The piece I got is gold and cost me roughly $200 just for the earring. I think they have cheaper pieces, but I didn’t look around a ton after finding mine. So in the end overall I was left a little broke the next few weeks haha. But it was so worth it. I love my little olive branch, and the high quality it is. This is such a professional, clean, fun and friendly shop that I am sending all my friends to them!!
This business prides itself on quality (with the piercings, jewelry, and cleanliness). I had two very good experiences and highly recommend Agave in Bloom to anyone who wants a piercing.
Mariel is so incredible. She is so passionate about her work and getting you the jewelry/look you love and deserve. I love that she is not afraid to tell you what looks best and what doesn’t. She is so honest and kind. I truly cannot say enough good things about her. She is the best piercer I have ever been to and has amazing taste. Definitely the best in the valley. Go to her for all of your piercing and jewelry needs! She will make your dreams come true!
By FAR the most caring, and accommodating experience! Were currently working on both ears and the jewelry quality is out of this WORLD. BEST SELECTION Ive ever seen... and doesnt hit u too hard in the pocketbook! Great customer service and soooo clean....always..that means so much to me! Best experience...wouldnt go ANYWHERE else..ever! ❤
A M A Z I N G! matt did my septum piercing and he was the sweetest soul ever. he allowed me to play music to help the pain of the piercing, kept me calm and had an amazing attitude. fairly priced was extremely clean!!!
The owner/piercer made our 8 yr old daughter very comfortable for her first piercings,her ear lobes (obviously? Haha)Her shop was clean and beautiful, her bed side manner was flawless with our nervous and excited daughter, highly recommend!Great high quality jewelry selection our daughter even got to pick 2 different colored earrings!
Great place. We were in town fur a few days & the daughter wanted a piercing. Great service, great job.
Fantastic service by Amy and Matt! Got my ears pierced by Matt. He was friendly, cracked jokes, fast and professional! I was in and out in 20 mins.
I got my first lobe piercings done by Matt, it was a great experience; I highly recommend Agave in Bloom!
Wonderful studio; clean and welcoming. Jewelry selection is gorgeous and I cant wait to go back when my initial piercing heals up. Mariel was very communicative and I had no issues scheduling an appointment, and their COVID precautions were appreciated.
This is the place to go in the valley if you want to be pierced by someone who is professional and is deeply passionate about what they do. they use high quality jewelry not surgical steel
Im really impressed with Mariels high end inventory and her expertise in helping me find the right jewelry. She was patient, knowledgeable, and made me feel very comfortable while making my selections. Her store front and studio are clean, welcoming, and beautifully setup. She took the time to help me find a fantastic septum ring for my partner within the budget I was working with. She also asked just the right questions that helped me make confident decisions. Its seems clear to me that Mariel is focused on building long term customer relationships by creating a friendly low pressure environment. Definitely worth checking out and making an appointment!
Beautiful jewelry, incredibly clean and professional, and expert piercing. I love coming here, and will exclusively come here for my piercing and jewelry needs!
Going in i had anxiety from my last nipple piercing experience elsewhere but the atmosphere was so calming and she has a wonderful personality that makes you feel very comfortable. She is professional and on point. So happy with the outcome! Definitely recommend getting your piercings here!
I have only good things to say about Mariel and Agave in Bloom. First off Mariel is so knowledgeable of all things piercings, piercing healing/care, and jewelry.Mariel is so kind, genuine, helpful, personable, etc. And when someone’s potentially shoving a needle through your skin those are all amazing qualities.She carries the most beautiful pieces! It’s impossible not to walk out with at least one new thing.Her space is so calming, aesthetically pleasing, clean, and comfortable.I can’t recommend her and her space enough for all your piercing and jewelry needs.
Makes you feel comfortable. Communicates well and all around great customer service.
Agave in bloom has an impressive and extensive range of quality high end piercing pieces and it’s evident that Mariel has put so much thought and love in her curation!I have made a number of special Pupil Hall orders from Australia through Mariel and she has always shipped my orders promptly and packaged very well. Mariel goes above and beyond for her clients - she’s very fast in responding to queries and will always make the time for you.
Incredible customer service, incredibly beautiful space, super clean, and incredible jewelry - that high quality experience you always hope for ❤️
Very efficient, through, friendly and great atmosphere.
Professional upscale piercing salon
I just got my 4th piercing from Mariel and every time I get a piercing there or a new piece of jewelry I am always blown away with her professionalism and the welcoming atmosphere she creates. It is very clean and a stress free experience. Mariel puts her customers comfort first which is why I always go back to her!
Mariel pierced my daiths in each ear & I was so impressed with her I came back to have my nose done. I’d wanted a nose piercing for a long time & she helped me decide on just the perfect piece. We ordered from Anatometal & got exactly what I wanted! Mariel is absolutely the best piercer in the area! She is knowledgeable, always is learning through continued education classes & keeps her studio clean & comfortable. You can be confident that your experience with her will be both professional & positive!
Very polite, very clean place. She took out a screw up piercing that another local piercer did for me and was very knowledgeable on the situation. I will be going back again!
Super great quality of jewelry and a comfortable experience. Even through being afraid of getting another piercing, she talked myself and my cousin through the experience and all together we are both extremely pleased, and have had great healing. No issues at all. Definitely will go to her again over any other company in the valley.
Mariel did an amazing job piercing my 5 year old. She connected with her a talked to her like she was family, which eliminated her fears. She told my daughter exactly what she was doing and explained every step in a way she understood. I would highly recommend Mariel for your children! Im so thankful I searched and found reviews. Thank you Mariel!
Mariel did an absolutely beautiful piercing for me, Im so happy! Her jewelry selection is gorgeous and shes very thoughtful about helping you select the right pieces. I went in having an idea of what I wanted but not knowing exactly and she was so helpful with jewelry selection and piercing placement. She was kind and professional throughout the whole process and it couldnt have been better. I will absolutely be back to see her for more piercings! Thanks Mariel! - Ashley
So kind and patient with my kiddo ❤
Mariel is absolutely the best in her industry and I recommend her very highly for all your piercing needs. I was blown away by how knowledgeable about jewelry and piercing she is. I just got some new custom jewelry that she helped me design that I absolutely love, but she also carries beautiful jewelry in stock too. Going in to see Mariel at Gypsy Moon and seeing the care she takes with cleanliness and sterilization made me feel so at ease and comfortable. I cringe on the inside when I think back to of some of the places I have been pierced at in the past. Never again! When my daughter is ready to have her ears pierced, I will definitely be taking her to see Mariel.
Great place and great jewelry
Mariel is the BEST piercer ever! After many trial and errors with other shops, Im SO THANKFUL to have found her. She uses only the highest quality tools and jewelry and is so knowlegable and lovely to be around. Definitely a customer for life. 😁❤
Mariel is a great piercer and a great person to go to when you need advise or help with piercing issues! She has done a great job with my piercings and been a huge help with dealing with my allergies to jewelry. I am allergic to almost all metals so she has taken the time to sit down with me and figure out the best solution and where to find what I might want and need. Great service
Best place to go in the rogue valley! My piercings only hurt the day of the initial piercing and I havent had any pain or discomfort since!! So glad I chose to go here. Mariel is the best! She was kind and was very thorough and clean! Will definitely be going back for my next one! THANK YOU!
Mariel is so amazing!! She’s done all my piercings except two, and every time I feel so comfortable and excited to come back for more. 15/10 recommend !!!!
Simply put, Mariel is the best piercer you will find anywhere! She is incredibly knowledgable and devoted to her clients’ care not only when it comes to the care of the piercing itself but also to the quality of jewellery she uses and sells.To add to it all, she’s a fantastic, caring person who is easy to talk to and helps ease any nerves before a piercing.I’ve recommended her to my friends often and will continue to do so! Thanks Mariel for all you do!
No one else! Mariel is incredible. Her selection is beautiful & always changing. Her expertise, care, and kindness are unmatched! I am so happy with my choices and cant wait to see her again!
2 Daith piercings for migraines!!! I am so happy I found Mariel!!! I have been getting migraines for the past three years after being rear ended in a car accident. I had done the research and daith piercings had a 50/50 chance of working to help with migraine relief. Mariel warned me that it would take 8-10 months of complete healing and keeping it clean was important. My first piercing was done on my left ear in January 2019. She charged $35 for the actual piercing and then the cost of earring. Mariel helped me pick between a few different pieces by letting me hold them up to my ear to see how it looked. I chose a $200 half moon shape with a small diamond.Mariel talked me through it because I have never pierced my ears before or any body part for that matter! She warned that it would be painful. It feels like she hit a nerve, which is supposed to happen, hot lightening flash of pain and it was over. I had to take a couple of ibuprofen for swelling and pain. My ear bled for a minute before it stopped. I kept it clean by using piercing saline in the morning and warm water at night. My ear would sting in the warm water but it was my preferred method. While healing, the fluid will form a crust around the piercing site and the warm water dissolves the crust and rinses it away. Fingers are usually dirty and Mariel told me to try and not touch it. At night, I did lay on my left side on the pillow. It was not unbearable to me and it caught a few times, like, when I would slide my head against the pillow, but it would sting for a minute and then go away. I took maybe a total of 6 ibuprofen tablets in the first 6 weeks.By the beginning of March of 2019, I was ready to get my right ear pierced. Mariel does not recommend this but scheduled me right before my birthday April 1. The second piercing went the same as the first. Same hot flash of lightening for split second and it was over. I chose a more expensive piece this time with three small jewels, which makes it heavier than the moon earring. I can feel the earring sliding in my ear. I have to fix it all the time. I would have chosen a less heavy piece, if I could go back. I am writing this review in August but stopped having any pain whatsoever in June and have not had any problems with either piercing, or migraines, for that matter!!Mariel is wonderful!!! She truly loves her work and it showed when she helped ease my nervousness of getting my first piercing!! I am so glad I found her because I would like more piercings!!
Best piercing experience ever - Mariel was very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. The space and tools were clean. Overall we felt very comfortable with our choice to go to Gypsy Moon and I’ll never go anywhere else!
Mariel is PHENOMENAL! She took the time to discuss everything with me and pick out the perfect jewelry, as my piercings were extremely sentimental. I cant WAIT to get my final two piercings from you, Mariel!!!Thank you so much!!!
Shes the bomb! Calmed my fears and made everything awesome
Mariel is very kind and professional, I had a wonderful experience getting my nose pierced by her. I was nervous because it had been pierced before and I had heard repiercing through the scar tissue could be more painful but she asssured me it wouldn’t make a difference. She also carries a large seleection of high quality jewelry, I couldn’t recommend her more. Best piercer in southern Oregon!
You get what you pay for & here, you get quality! Great work. Mariel makes you feel very comfortable, she’s knowledable, and she puts all her effort in to making sure you are happy & that your jewelry not only looks great but fits even better. I definitely recommend!
Very friendly and clean environment!
This is the only place i trust to get pierced, after having permanent nerve damage in my tongue from a different shop im very very precautious about piercings and Mariel is the only piercer i trust to pierce me, I know if something i want wont work with my anatomy, she wouldnt just do it anyway. I cant wait for my next piercing!
Gorgeous unique jewelry selection.Wonderfully comfortable septum piercing experience.Highly recommend this place!
Excellent selection of jewelry! Clean and sterile! Mariel is excellent!
I wouldn’t trust anyone else to pierce me ! I have found the piercer of my dreams ! I love that Mariel takes time with me to pick out the best piece of jewelry & discuss piercings process with me ! I have recommending her to my friend and even strangers ! When you find someone amazing like Mariel, you shout it from the roof tops ! Mariel is truthful, honest and raw ! Mariel is feeding my addiction ! Thank you Mariel !
She is the best piercer in the valley. She is very knowledgeable and friendly. I wouldnt go anywhere else
Almost perfect experience; the cost was not explained well but, the work was done so well that I didnt mind the difference.
She was so sweet, professional, and clean. It was a great environment and will definitely be coming back
Very easy piercing. Very helpful, funny and nice. Got my tongue done.
Another amazing experience with Mariel! Will never go anywhere else and will always recommend her to just about everybody!!
Mariel ensures industry standards and continuously educates herself to stay relevant in her craft AND she is a lovely person to top it all off!
Mariel is the best! Got my septum and ears pierced and I couldn’t be more happy.
Me and my mom got our nose pierced (from a different place) and needed to swap the jewelry because they weren’t good for our noses and Mariel was kind and gentle and we could not be more happy with our new jewelry
