Piercing Pagoda FAQ
Did Piercing Pagoda change its name?
Yes. To better reflect our evolving passion for fine jewelry and self-expression, we officially rebranded as Banter by Piercing Pagoda. Rest assured, you will still experience the exact same high-quality piercing services, professional safety standards, and excellent jewelry selection at all of our New York storefronts.
What type of piercing equipment do you use?
We do not use harsh spring-loaded piercing guns. Instead, our trained Piercing Pros use a hand-pressurized, FDA-approved medical device with single-use, pre-sterilized cartridges. This specialized instrument ensures a highly controlled, quick, and gentle piercing process that maximizes comfort and promotes proper healing.
Is the jewelry sold at your Central New York locations authentic?
Absolutely. We specialize in accessible, high-quality styles designed for everyday exploration and style building. All of our fine jewelry is crafted from real 10K–14K gold or premium sterling silver. Furthermore, our piercing earrings are entirely hypoallergenic, making them safe and comfortable for individuals with sensitive ears.
