Business ProfileforBody Jewel Tattoo & Piercing

If I could give a temporary 0 star I would. My wife has been a repeat customer of Body Jewel in the Dayton Mall before, and previously (in years past) had a good experience. However, in one just a week ago, she had an experience that will be leaving me with telling people to avoid this location LIKE THE PLAGUE for years to come. My wife went into Dayton Mall Body Jewel shop asking about her second ear piercing that had partially healed over, but not fully. The piercer that worked with her said that because it had not healed over, and because of a sale going on at that store, that it would be best that she get that piercing re-opened and get a 3rd ear piercing, and that the cost would be, in the piercer's words, not more than $160. My wife thought that sounded alright and agreed, getting her second ear piercing re-opened, and a 3rd done. However, when she went to check out, she was told that the total price was going to be $250. She pushed back, letting the person checking out know that this was MUCH higher than the agreed upon maximum cost of what had occurred, but the cashier insisted that that was the final price. Feeling pressured because you can't really take back a piercing, she paid that amount and left. Now, as I'm sure you can imagine, this left her feeling taken advantage of and all around awful with the experience at the Body Jewel store. I can also attest that this has also left a very bad taste in my mouth as well Even if the final price was "correct," telling a potential client that the cost would be substantially less than that is both unethical, and possibly illegal. Besides both those points, it is also just bad business as not only us, but any one we speak with, will be unlikely to ever do business with your location again. DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR MONEY AND TIME.
