While visiting Portland, one of my piercings looked like it was getting infected and I was getting worried it would get worse if I didn't give it immediate attention.
My friends drove me to STTP Body Piercing so that I could get it checked out. Â George was incredibly friendly, helpful, and kind and without too many questions, immediately offered assistance to me. Â Even though I wasn't in his shop for a piercing, he wiped down the entire piercing chair and room, and was kind to clean up my piercing and make sure it was all right. Â We had a great conversation in the meantime and he made me feel comfortable, even though I had my abdomen exposed to him and the rest of the store in the glass piercing room O_O
Turns out my piercing wasn't infected, but perhaps snagged by something without my knowing.  George noticed that I had good jewelry on, and when he asked where I had it done (<a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/high-priestess-piercing-eugene#hrid:V18jT8Ej95B347p6n5s4Cw">http://www.yelp.com/biz/…</a>), he knew exactly where I got it done, and seemed to approve their work.
He also suggested that it was time for another piercing. Â Hm... ideas in my head... Â If I was in the market for another piercing, I'd be comfortable to get it done at STTP!
