@IronWoodPiercing
Leslie (she/they) has been piercing professionally full-time since 2020 and has always pushed for the highest standards for herself and her clients. Her journey originally began in high school, during a “Job Shadow” assignment where she was permitted to interview at a Tattoo Studio and fell in love with the industry. Despite veering off course to pursue more “respectable” jobs (in her parent’s words) she eventually found her way back and dove headfirst into giving her clients the best of the best. She’s a lifelong learner and striver, though she’s mostly well-known for gentle hands and soothing nature. She is comfortable with tools or free-hand piercing styles; whichever will be most comfortable and swift for the piercee! She loves doing Curation Work and finding just the right high-quality pieces to fit in anyone’s piercing goals. She views the Piercing Experience as a transformative one and values the trust and joy she gets to impart with such simple but beautiful jewelry.
