EAR piercings are more than just aesthetic body decorations — these could also be a form of self-expression or a totem of progression from the hardships people experience in the daily course of their lives.
While it is nice to have both your earlobes pierced and adorned with gold and silver accessories, people are now appreciating the elegance and style found in piercing other areas of their ears and bodies as well.
If you have been wanting to get more piercings, here are safe and affordable piercing studios within Metro Manila.
Guhitinta
Situated in Quezon City, Guhitinta is one of the most budget-friendly piercing and tattoo studios in Metro Manila. It offers a wide range of piercing services for the ears and body. The shop also has its own collection of piercing jewelry that customers can get for both their new and old piercings.
Although Guhitinta accepts walk-in customers from time to time, it is best to check their availability using their social media pages on Facebook and Instagram.
