Overall
Stay away from this shop!!!

DO NOT GO HERE. I went here to get my septum pierced because friends had told me the main piercer was the best around. I'll give them this- the shop is clean, there's parking, and the tattooers were very nice. But the main piercer/owner is simply awful.

I had been forewarned that he has an attitude but hearing he was a great piercer, I didn't really care. But guess what? He's an a**hole who cant even pierce! 
So he pierces me, and says he messed up and that it was off center and that he could do it again if I wanted him to. I asked if it was ok for him to pierce the same spot twice and he didn't really give me a clear answer, saying it was "up to me." I figured he knew what he was doing so I said he could go ahead and try again, thinking he'd get it right the second time. I was wrong. 
He messed up again, saying it was closer but I could decide for myself if I liked it. I wasn't sure what to do and neither was he. I had been through a lot of pain, having been pierced twice in the same spot. 
I didn't want to offend him or provoke any more attitude (which there was plenty of) and it looked okay so I left feeling pretty shooken up, mostly just wanting to get the hell out of there.

After getting a bite to eat and having a chance to really look at my piercing without feeling rushed or demeaned, I decided he was right- it was uneven. I thought to myself, "He was rude. He pierced me TWICE. And I have nothing to show for it other than an off-centered septum ring, dried blood on my nose (that he didn't bother removing all the way) and being $59 (plus tip, because I'm a nice person) poorer."

So with some moral support from my friend I got the guts to go back in there, and had the jewelry removed and got my money back (not the tip, but whatever). I told him he was rude and he attempted to excuse himself by revealing a little too much information about his personal life that my "small perspective wouldn't be able to understand". 
Just head my warning and stay far away from Sub Q. Listen to your gut instinct about things and don't let people who thrive off being mean to strangers anywhere near you with a needle.

**P.S. My ears and bellybutton are pierced, and I have a tattoo. I'm not an expert when it comes to body modification, but I do have some experience.**
