UPDATE!

We have officially passed inspections and are ready to open!

We’ll be taking appointments starting this coming week, and Tuesday is already fully booked! Thank you all so much for the support!

There have been quite a few delays throughout this entire process, which means we weren’t able to get everything done that we originally had planned for the opening just yet. But don’t worry the giveaways and drawings are still happening!

Stay tuned for more details, and we can’t wait to finally show you all the new space and all of the new jewelry!

Thank you again for your patience, support, and excitement throughout everything and we can’t wait to welcome you into the new space! 🖤

Hey guys remember we are going to be closed while we get the new studio space ready for inspections. We can’t wait to show you what we have been working on! Messages are still open so if you need anything or have questions don’t hesitate to reach out. Thanks again for bearing with us during this transition period and we appreciate your patience! 🙏🏼

Stay tuned for updates! As we get things done we will have a better idea of a time line for when we open but hoping things will only take a week or two. 🖤

It’s been a wonderful 4 years at the old location but this book has been closed and another opened! Excited to share the new space with everyone once it’s finally completed! Stay tuned!!

This was done at a local shop, and the client was told by the “piercer” that this is how industrials should be done because using a full barbell makes them harder to heal.

That is absolutely NOT how a traditional industrial piercing should be done.

Using separate rings does not magically make an industrial easier to heal. The angles and placement matter. In this case, the piercings are going in completely opposite directions, and based on the current placement. A straight industrial barbell would never sit correctly in this ear with how they pierced it.

Honestly, we wouldn’t have attempted a traditional industrial here in the first place because the client’s anatomy does not appear suitable for one. Anatomy is so important, and not every ear is meant for every piercing. A responsible piercer needs to recognize that and be willing to say no or offer a more appropriate alternative rather than forcing a piercing that isn’t suited to the client’s anatomy.

And this is exactly what frustrates us about the state of this industry. Clients trust us with their bodies, their money, and their healing. They deserve accurate information, proper placement, and someone who actually understands the procedures they’re performing.

To the local hacks who continue to take people’s money while setting them up for unnecessary complications and disappointment: please do better. Invest in your education, learn proper anatomy assessment, and understand the procedures you’re offering before putting someone through them.

If you genuinely want to be a professional piercer, act like one. Stop spreading misinformation and stop treating people’s bodies like practice grounds. If you’re unwilling to educate yourself and take responsibility for your work, then maybe it’s time to put the needles down.

After over a decade of building, learning, growing, and putting everything I have into this craft, I’m incredibly excited to announce our brand-new location is in the works and hoping to be up and running next month! 🖤

Follow our pages for updates and still taking clients at the old location until October 15th.

This isn’t just a new address. It’s a new chapter.

For me, piercing has always been about much more than putting jewelry in someone’s body. It’s about education, safety, quality, trust, and creating an experience where you feel confident putting your body in someone else’s hands.

I believe you deserve to know why something is being recommended not just be told what to do. I believe in using high quality, body safe jewelry and proper techniques. I believe in taking the time to assess anatomy, discuss expectations, explain healing, and give you the information you need to make informed decisions about your own body.

Most importantly, I believe that professional piercing should be treated as a profession.

Over the years, I’ve seen the good, the bad, and unfortunately, some truly awful outcomes when proper standards are ignored. Those experiences have only reinforced why I care so much about doing things the right way.

This business was built on the idea that you shouldn’t have to choose between beautiful piercings and safe, responsible care. You deserve both.

And now, I get to bring that philosophy into a brand-new space.

🖤 NEW LOCATION
🖤 NEW SPACE
🖤 SAME STANDARDS
🖤 SAME PASSION
🖤 A WHOLE NEW CHAPTER

Whether you’ve been coming to me for years, you’re completely new to piercing, or you’ve been waiting for the right place to finally get that piercing you’ve always wanted I’d love to have you here!

So let me also say hi to all the new faces, my names Josh Mohr 🖤

I own essence and I can’t wait to bring all your inspirations to life!

Okay… BIG NEWS.

After four incredible years, Essence Body Art is officially moving into its own location on the WEST SIDE! 🎉

This opportunity came up and honestly… it was just too perfect to pass up. As Essence continues to grow, this feels like the natural next step for the business, and I am SO excited to finally have a space that is truly our own.

I have so much gratitude for everyone at Evelyn and for the time I’ve spent there. That space has been such an important part of Essence’s journey, and I’ll continue supporting them 100%. ❤️ But sometimes you just know when it’s time for the next chapter and this feels like exactly that.

And of course, because apparently I don’t know how to do anything without making it as chaotic as possible… this is happening while I’m also buying a house. 😂

So between closing on September 4th, moving, getting the new studio ready, and approximately 7,000 other things happening behind the scenes please bare with me through this crazy transition in my life! 🙏🏼

This move is a HUGE milestone for Essence Body Art, and I genuinely could not have gotten here without all of you. Every appointment, recommendation, share, review, jewelry purchase, conversation, and person who has trusted me with their body has helped build this business into what it is today.

And I have to give a massive shoutout to Travis Jerome Gorell, who gave me a space to grow when Essence was just getting started and has been in my corner since day one. Four years later, you’ve become a very close friend, and I’m so grateful for everything you’ve done for me and Essence. I’m excited to see what the future holds for you and your business, too. 🖤

It’s been one hell of a ride these last four years, and now…

Essence Body Art is leveling up.

I’ll be sharing ALL the behind-the-scenes chaos, progress, sneak peeks, and new details as we get closer to opening.

So stay tuned for the grand reopening!

And YES, there will absolutely be snacks. Obviously. 😂

Thank you for helping me build something I’m incredibly proud of.

New space. New chapter. Same Essence. 🖤

Hello friends! Someone sent this too us and it brought up a good point to make and we would love to give some education on the subject since it is commonly talked about.

This is not safe, and being a medical professional does not automatically mean someone is qualified or properly trained to perform body piercings.

The fact that they use piercing guns “they stated in comments” is exactly what concerns us. Piercing guns can cause unnecessary tissue trauma, and the jewelry commonly used with them is not designed with safe, professional piercing practices in mind. There are significant differences between properly performing a piercing with a sterile, single-use needle and using a piercing gun.

We have a lot of respect for medical professionals and the work they do, but piercing is a specialized skill that requires specific education, training, anatomy knowledge, sterile technique, appropriate equipment, and an understanding of jewelry and healing.

They need to leave professional piercing to trained piercers and focus on the medical care they are qualified to provide. When a medical facility offers piercings, people naturally assume that means the service is safe simply because it is being performed by medical professionals. That can create a false sense of security when proper piercing standards aren’t being followed. Basically you are all being lied too and it’s not cool.

People deserve accurate information and safe practices. This goes out to all of the medical professional who offer piercings especially with guns…Please do better!

One of the most rewarding parts of what we do is getting to work with kids. They’ve become such a big part of our clientele, and we never take for granted the trust that so many families place in EBA. Being chosen to be part of such a special milestone is something we are truly grateful for. 🙏🏼

For many kids, this is their first experience choosing to do something that comes with a little discomfort in order to get something they’ve been looking forward to. Watching them build up the courage, take a deep breath, and realize they’re capable of doing hard things is an incredible thing to witness.

A great piercing experience is about so much more than just the awesome jewelry. It’s about making every child feel safe, listened to, respected, and in control throughout the entire process. Our goal is always to make it a positive memory they’ll look back on with confidence.

And seeing that huge smile when they finally look in the mirror, along with the relief and excitement on their parents’ faces never gets old. Those moments are exactly why we love what we do! 🖤
