A Warm, Welcoming Piercing Experience Designed for Everyone

At The Zap Bar, we’ve created a luxury ear and nose piercing studio that feels calm, elevated, and inviting. From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice the difference — soft lighting, a clean professional setup, and a boutique atmosphere designed to make you feel comfortable and confident. Whether you’re booking your child’s first lobe piercing, starting your ear styling journey, adding a bold conch, flat, or helix, or choosing a subtle nostril piercing, our space is intentionally designed to make the experience feel relaxed, personal, and special.

We Specialize in First-Time Piercings & Ear Styling

We specialize in first-time piercings and curated ear styling. Many clients choose us for milestone moments like first earrings, and we take pride in making those experiences calm, memorable, and professionally done.To help with any anxiety we offer both face massagers to help distract from discomfort as well as Zap Bar teddy bears to squeeze for the littles. Beyond initial piercings, we offer over 80 different high-quality implant-grade titanium flatback studs, allowing you to build a fully customized ear stack that fits your style. After your piercings have fully healed, you can return for jewelry switch-outs to refresh and evolve your look.

All initial piercings are performed with a beautiful, implant-grade titanium medical-grade stud for optimal healing. Titanium is lightweight, hypoallergenic, and ideal for sensitive skin, making it the gold standard for safe, comfortable healing.

Professional Ear & Nose Piercing Services

We perform all piercings using single-use, sterile hollow needles — never piercing guns. This method allows for precise placement, minimal tissue trauma, cleaner piercings, and better healing outcomes. We currently offer lobe piercing (first, second, and third lobes), helix piercing, flat piercing, conch piercing, and nostril (nose) piercing. Every appointment includes a placement consultation tailored to your anatomy, jewelry styling guidance, and detailed aftercare instructions to support proper healing. Our focus is not just on the piercing itself — it’s on creating a polished, confidence-boosting result that complements your style.

Minor Piercing Policy

For clients under 18 years old, a parent or legal guardian must be present at the appointment and provide a valid photo ID. A notarized Minor Consent Form is required and can be downloaded under the “Forms” section of our website prior to your appointment and or by clicking the button below. These policies are required by the Florida department of health and ensure safety, legality, and peace of mind for families.

Aftercare Instructions

Proper aftercare is essential for optimal healing and long-term results. We recommend cleaning your piercing twice daily with sterile saline solution, avoiding twisting or unnecessary touching, and avoiding sleeping directly on new ear piercings. It’s important to avoid swimming in pools, lakes, or hot tubs during the initial healing period and not to change jewelry until the piercing is fully healed. Average healing times are approximately six to eight weeks for lobes, three to six months for helix and flat piercings, four to nine months for conch piercings, and three to six months for nostril piercings. We review all aftercare instructions in detail during your appointment and remain available if you have questions while healing.
