2 of us came to get our ears pierced here. The lady explained there would be a 30 minute wait period, since it took 15 minutes for each piercing and there were 2 people getting pierced before us. We told her we’d be back at around 10 past/20 past 4 PM (30 minutes later), with also 10 minutes extra so then we weren’t in her way if we turned up too early, since the shop is very cramped. She said that would be absolutely fine and made us fill out the consent forms etc and she even showed us the selection of piercings and had the ones we picked out ready on the table. We came back at 4:20 and the shop had its shutters down almost all the way. The same lady told us they’d stopped doing piercings and when we told her she said coming back now was completely fine, the only reply we got was “that was 10 past”. Another lady explained they stopped doing piercings at this time. So why on earth did they tell us to come back? Even if we had come back at exactly 4:10, each piercing took 15 minutes, according to the workers, so we would have been half an hour anyway. Very unorganised service. If the lady serving was untrained on shop protocol as important as timings, then thank god she didn’t pierce us. Nonetheless, we didn’t argue and just walked away. So glad we weren’t made to pay beforehand.
