Rising Dragon
Like most piercing parlours, this is also a tattoo parlour. Most of the tattoo artists at this studio are also qualified piercers. What we love about this studio is their plentiful jewellery options from colourful tongue rings to the unique cartilage studs. Owner, Angelo is always very friendly and professional and is more than happy to discuss everything with clients in detail.
