Kendra Gauge - Piercer

10/24/2025

Psst… make sure to keep your Sunday clear! 💜

UPDATE: Thank you so much for a great turnout! We are no longer taking tattoo walk ins. We will continue with piercing walk ins until closing.

This Sunday, October 26, we will be having a walk-in piercing and flash tattoo day! Please check the comments for our piercing pricelist.

THE RULES and FAQ: we will be tattooing 12:00 noon until about 7:00pm. Arms and legs only for the tattoos, and please come dressed appropriately for where you're getting the tattoo placed (we do have a restroom available if you need to change). First come, first served. For this event, we will be cash or Venmo only. Tattoo prices start at $25 and go up from there depending on the design. Designs will be on the counter with the prices clearly marked, and are all blackwork. We aren't doing any custom pieces on this day. Children under the age of 10 are not allowed in the shop. No, we won't send you images of the flash aside from what is shown in this photo 😉 (there are more sheets not shown). If we need to stop taking customers due to time constraints (if we get too backed up), we will update this post.

Be sure to stop in this Sunday for walk-in tattoos and piercings!

Note: for modesty and space reasons, we will not be doing walk-in ni**le piercings. Any of my other usual offerings are game.

Come get stabbed so it can be mostly healed for the new year! ☺️

Want to go swimming this summer with a new piercing?
We recommend waiting a MINIMUM of 8 weeks after a piercing before going swimming, which makes now the best time to be my pin cushion! ☺️

As a reminder, I’m available by appointment only. Check the comments for my website 💜

We love a symmetry moment here. Added two eyebrow piercings to this setup today and, honestly… why are eyebrows so underrated? They always look fire. 🔥

Here’s one I don’t do often: a Transverse Lobe. This is one of my favorites aesthetically. It is anatomy dependent (perfect for those of us with thicker lobes) and a bit of a tricky heal, but look at it! It’s such an underrated and cool piercing! 💜

Whether you believe it rhymes with “faith” or with “goth,” a daith piercing is a gorgeous and subtle way to add some sparkle to your ears!

I feel like my mirror needs more stickers. And you need more piercings. 🤔 Don’t get sticker shock, but I *might* throw in a discount on a piercing if you bring in a cool enough sticker 😉

After little before and after.
Sometimes piercings end up shallow, whether from an inexperienced piercer not piercing deep enough or from migration. When migration happens, sometimes there’s not much that can be done. Fortunately, this shallow piercing stayed right where it was pierced for a few years before this client came in to get it fixed. The original placement was just to where I was able to pierce her today without needing to wait for the original to heal.
