6 Northern Virginia Options for Professional Ear Piercing  

With some Claire’s locations closing, these NoVA services also offer piercing.

By Kate Oczypok August 22, 2025 at 6:00 am

With the future of Claire’s uncertain, you may be looking for places that offer piercing. Here are six shops and boutiques that offer the service in NoVA. 

Hey Rowan 

Rowan’s ear piercing is done by licensed nurses, and all their jewelry is hypoallergenic and made from premium metals. The business also sells clever accessories, like a flower-shaped piercing pillow with a hole in the middle to allow newly pierced ears to heal. Ashburn and two locations in Fairfax 

Belleza Lase Luxury Ear Piercing Spa 

Twins Vanessa and Jessica wanted to create a more memorable experience for their daughters’ first ear piercings, as the occasion is a major part of their Latina culture. The duo couldn’t find the perfect place for their girls, so they decided to open their own shop. 4015 Chain Bridge Rd., Ste. L, Fairfax 

Earrings World 

Earrings World at Potomac Mills specializes in baby to adult ear piercing and offers bridal jewelry and Quinceanera jewelry, too. 2700 Potomac Mills Cir., Woodbridge 

Liquid Jewels Piercing Studio 

The first piercing shop in Lake Anne, Reston, Liquid Jewels offers ear piercing with the price of the jewelry included (they do not pierce with outside jewelry). 1606 Washington Plaza N, #201, Reston 

Lovisa 

Lovisa offers free ear piercing in selected stores with the purchase of a piercing stud. The team takes guests through the whole process, from placement to choosing jewelry to aftercare. The piercing experience includes a consult, choosing the jewelry, the piercing service, and a complimentary piercing aftercare packet. Arlington, Fairfax, Leesburg, Springfield, Tysons, Woodbridge 

The Piercing Nurse 

Jennifer, a local registered nurse, started her business in 2021. She travels to private homes, and her piercings are done with high-quality, hypoallergenic earrings using a hand-pressured device. Serving the NoVA area, including military base access
