Service Description A troubleshoot appointment is designed for clients experiencing concerns, irritation, discomfort, healing complications, or other issues related to a piercing. This appointment may be appropriate for irritation bumps, swelling, pressure issues, embedded jewelry concerns, migration concerns, healing complications, or situations where you are unsure whether your piercing is healing normally. During the appointment, a piercer will evaluate the piercing, discuss possible causes, and recommend the most appropriate next steps based on your specific situation. If a jewelry adjustment, jewelry replacement, downsize, or jewelry removal is needed to resolve the issue, the appointment may transition into the appropriate service and the corresponding service pricing and policies will apply instead of the troubleshoot fee. We welcome troubleshoot appointments for piercings performed both at Tacoma’s Best Piercing and at other studios. Starting Prices Troubleshoot Appointment — $15 (for piercings performed at TBP) / $50 (for anything else)Appointment Length — 15 minutes If additional jewelry or services are needed during the appointment, separate service pricing may apply.
