$60 from a tattoo place. I would expect that they could do it that day, depending on their work load (weekends i would expect to either be told yes or come back monday) and if they had a set body peircer on site. Generally most of the time i have been told to come back or sit and wait for a bit till they set up. It really comes down to how many staff they have, if the peircer is a tattooist then you may find you have to wait or you are told to come back at a set time which is fine with me.

As long as its a reputable place and well depending on the time of the day you cant really assume they are bad if they are quiet, it might just be as they dont have any bookings if that makes sense :)

I got my labret done at cosmetics plus for $35 including jewellery and have never had a problem, they where really sterial as well.

That $35 is for any piercing including jewellery.

I wouldnt pay any more then $50 for my nose.

Just cause there not busy doesnt mean anything though.

Got mine done at a reputable piercing place, but it was south eastern suburbs. I talked to them on the phone and made an appointment, hardly had to wait. It was a pain to look after TBH and only lasted 6 months after coming out twice

At a proper piercing shop (well done by the way :p), it generally starts at 50-60, depending what jewelery you choose.. A lot of piercing shops will have gold, white gold, surgical steel, or titanium.. The cost depends on what you want.. If your after something small and dainty, I wouldn't recommend getting something expensive right away, because until the swelling goes down and it heals a little, you need to wear something with a larger top so it doesn't sink in and start to grow over.. As soon as it settles, go back and get them to show you how to put it in and out and choose the jewelery you really want :)

I hate that place with a passion !!


never would get another thing done unless was a professional ,

been that its semi permanent i would pay from 50-70 Depends on where it was
nipple or into mouth or down there would expect to pay more , as you would be expecting the best

i had my nip done , he stuffed it up , never healed right as wasn't done straight as a result i have a hole on each side that gets Gunk in it
turned out he wasn't a pro !! DP had his done at same place , he has bumps on his to but least his wasnt as bad to be needed to come out :(

they are lucky i could still Bfeed from it

Ive herd of "some" ppl taking out piercings an they close , so tis only reason i said it .
Mine was only out for not even a wk (had it for over 6months at time ) an its closed up in the middle could only put it in half way , but that was nipple so may be dif to a nose one :)

We have a dedicated piercing studio local here and I have heard nothing but good reports about them....

For the nostril piercing they are $35 with a plain stud, and $50 with a gem.....

I'm looking at getting either my nose, labret, or eyebrow done when I get a space where there's a few weeks off football..... :laughing:.... Just can't make up my mind..... If I didn't have a darn beauty spot I would get the monroe piercing in a second!

Hmmmm then again I could always get my tongue redone...... :confused:

My nose was done at a professional piercing place for $40 which included a surgical steel or titanium stud/ring but I chose solid gold for an extra $20 as I'm allergic to everything else. I had to have a minor operation 3 weeks later and the nurse forced me to remove the stud saying that it won't close up because I'll only be under general anaesthetic for an hour. I was under g/a for almost 4 hrs and couldn't get the stud back in as it had partially closed up. I went straight back to the piercing shop after being discharged and had my nose redone on the spot at no charge. A good professional will always look after you. BTW I have since had a .50 carat diamond nose stud hand made by my jeweller and it has been in for over 4yrs now with no problems at all.

Good luck
