27 years ago, on 4/20/1999 to be exact, Crystal and Shawn opened the doors of Evolution on Central Ave and changed what body piercing in Albuquerque could look like. Not because they set out to make history, but because they genuinely cared about setting a higher standard.

This past weekend, we celebrated by hosting our 3rd annual Fur20 adoption event with — happy dogs + the community that has shown up for us year after year = our kind of party 🐾🎉

27 years is a long time. It’s a lot of piercings, a lot of relationships built, and a lot of reasons to be grateful. This anniversary belongs to all of YOU just as much as it does to Crystal and Shawn. Thank you for 27 years.
