text: I went to get my nose pierced (my first piercing other than my ears). I was pierced by George, at Tribe 1 in Newington.  He had no bedside manner so to speak - when my friend offered to come with for support, he told her no.  Then when we got to the piercing room, he told me to sit, asked what side I wanted it on, and then proceeded to pierce my nose without asking if the mark was ok.  After he put the needle through he told me I was done, and then proceeded to play around some more, putting the stud in.  He scolded me for holding my breath, and was just generally unlike-able.  I had to go to another, BETTER, piercer today to get it removed as well (it was in for 5 days) as the stud he used was \"too small for an initial piercing and only good for healed piercings\" which resulted in my swollen tissue swallowing the stud so much that it was trying to grow over the stud.  Bottom line, unless you're an experienced piercee who can ensure everything is done correctly and he is using the right stud, etc, find another place.
