Got my left nostril pierced by nico,highly recommend her.She puts you totally at ease and explains everything that she is going to do for your piercing.
Fantastic piercing experience.... …
Had my forward helix done with the lovely Nico. I have never felt more at ease with this young lady she is absolutely brilliant and can't wait for my next piercing.
My ears are in her hands to make them look unusual and beautiful for my wedding in September.
I highly recommend Stay Sharp Studio and will not go anywhere else again. Thanks Nico you are a star xx
Went to needles and noodles after…they were recommended by a friend, wouldn't go elsewhere now.
Went to needles and noodles after booking a piercing with a friend. Honestly I would never go anywhere else for a piercing now. Nico is really really knowledgeable, explaining the piercing progress and the types and sizes of jewellery used. Answered any questions I had without hesitation. The piercing studio is super hygienic and clinical. Couldn't be happier with my septum piercing, healed perfectly too. Will be back when my new jewellery arrives :))))
Friendly, knowledgeable and safe
I love my visits to Nicky at Needles and Noodles. They always give a friendly, warm welcome and the studio is always spotless. I went for an upgrade on a few pieces including the most beautiful daith ring by Apex - the size and shape expertly advised, perfect. I was also there to claim a prize I had won - thank you so much Nicky - can’t wait for next time xxx
Highly recommend for a friendly piercing experience!
I booked online and took my daughter for her nose pierced. Nico was so lovely, helpful and informative. She really put us at ease with her friendliness! :)
I asked a question about my naval piercing that I thought had closed up years ago. She explained it probably wouldn't have healed up and kindly offered to check while we were waiting for my daughters jewellery to sterilise. It hadn't, I got a new belly bar and my daughter is so happy with her nose piercing! I would highly recommend Nico and have already told a friend whose daughter was looking for somewhere to get pierced! :)
What a fantastic experience
What a fantastic experience. Nico is a brilliant and super friendly piercer. Putting both my girls at ease for their piercings and also for me!!
Explains the process completely and offers full support with aftercare. We will all be back soon.
Nico is fabulous!!
Friendly and professional
The friendliest, warmest welcome is waiting for you at Nico's piercing studio.
I cannot recommend her enough. Her studio is not only clean and professional, but well stocked with a variety of beautiful jewellery, ranging at different prices to suit everyone's budget.
Nico pierced my septum; she explained the whole process and gave me clear instructions about aftercare.
Nico is knowledgeable, helpful and the whole experience was a pleasure.
Thank you so much Nico, I'm so happy with my new piercing!
The best and loveliest piercer
Nicky was an absolute pleasure to be pierced by. I had my tragus pierced and downsized and had no problems at all! They are so knowledgable and friendly and make the piercing experience a breeze!
Absolutely amazing service and advice.
Absolutely amazing service and advice.
I had purchased some jewellery elsewhere a while back, and noticed my ears had recently started to cause me a lot of discomfort.
I messaged Nico for some advice after having her recommended by a friend. Her advice on explaining why I was having a reaction to really cheap jewellery was so informative and didn’t make me feel stupid or belittled, she recommended how to heal the reaction using Vitamin E oil (also now the best thing I’ve ever come across for my skin in general.)
Nico put forward how implant grade titanium might be the best route for me to make sure I don’t have any further issues, she then went out the way to order custom sizes and even anodised them for me so I could keep my gold look that I love!
I cannot recommend Nico enough and will be letting friends now where to go for their piercings from now on!
YOU ROCK!
THANK YOU!
Best Piercer Ever!
Nico is amazing! Went to get my septum pierced and change my nostril piercing- so so so lovely and made me so comfortable! Couldn’t ask for a better piercer!
Best place!
Nico is absolutely fantastic! Got my nipples pierced a couple of days ago. Obviously I was nervous, but the moment I met Nico I forgot about stress. The process was super quick, I have been told everything about the aftercare. As you can imagine nipples are very sensitive place to get piercing done, but to be honest - the whole experience was just great. If you want any piercing, choose Needles and Noodles!
Highly Recommend!
I've had jewellery changed/bought from the online store before, but I'd never been pierced by Nico until last week. Not only is she a lovely person, she's very good at what she does and has genuine excitement towards it. I wasn't sure whether to go conch or tragus as I already have heavily pierced ears and she immediately knew that the conch would finish off my left ear... and she was right. (Will still be back for the tragus though haha) She stocks extremely good quality jewellery which is also a bonus! I live 25 minutes away and there's closer options for me in the city centre however it's in a very accesible location with free parking options out front or just over the road and I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a reputable, knowledgeable piercer whilst also supporting a small business!
Wonderful!
I contacted Nico on her Instagram asking for help with deciding on placements for some new piercings. We decided on a triple conch piercing to start with so I booked my appointment online. On the day Nico was friendly, professional and caring. She made sure I was comfortable throughout and was gentle and quick with the piercings. The day after my new piercings feel great and, even better, look great! Thank you so much Nico, I highly recommend trusting her with your own piercings too.
Talented, brilliant, incredible
Nico was absolutely fantastic - she's great at putting you at ease and keeping you distracted with good conversation while she does the deed! I am very pleased with my 4 piercings (all in one sitting!) and I'll be coming back in the future - thank you Nico!
100% recommend, great place!
I had my a helix piercing done by Nicky last week and can honestly say she was brilliant - super friendly and knowledgeable. She gave honest advice when it came to picking out the jewellery, put me completely at ease throughout the piercing and made sure to explain through all the aftercare thoroughly.
Couldn’t be happier with my experience - thanks again! X
Fabulous!
Fabulous! So friendly and knows what she’s talking about. I can’t recommend Nico enough
Nobody else I'd trust!
Literally nobody else I'd trust with my piercings. Nico is not only absolutely lovely, but super knowledgeable, passionate and has an awesome eye for piercing. I've been to so many different piercers prior but I didn't realise how dodgy some are until I came here.
Not only is the studio also super clean, their jewellery selection is beaut which is a lovely bonus!
You must go here! Every time!
Go here. Just go. You will meet the most incredible human. Someone who knows piercings. Someone intuitive who knows what looks amazing. Provides guidance, support, warmth and energy. Super clean and safe. Will put you at ease every single time. Incredible range of jewellery for any piercings you have or want. No pressure. Lovely. Creative person. Superb recommendations with no stress to buy. Can order in chosen jewellery. Can’t fault at all. So happy to have Nico in my life now. Piercings? Sign me up!
Amazing!
Amazing! So good I keep coming back for more. Nico is pleasant, knows their stuff and makes it as painless as possible. I love the choice of jewellery they stock.
I’m already thinking about where I’ll pierce next!
Nicky is brilliant
Nicky is brilliant! She was really patient and knowledgeable (I asked a lot of questions!)and helped me choose 2 pieces (one for an existing daith and one for a conch she did). She showed me lots of options for where my piercing would flow best in my ear. Her studio was pristine. I can’t wait to go back and get more pieces from her lovely selection in my ears!
