Jewelry Price Ranges

Price Range: $65-$1000
Average Price: $130-$400
Threadless ends work for nearly any piercing. We have a huge variety of these in stock at all times and our inventory changes constantly. All threadless ends will need a $20 threadless labret to hold them in. Some threadless ends will also work great on rook and vertical labret piercings accompanied with a $40 threadless titanium curved barbell or a 14k curved barbell which will vary in price – see below.
Please keep in mind that not all ends are suitable for all piercings so we suggest verifying that your price range will work for the piercing you’re planning to get.
Price Range: $90-$1500
Average Price: $300-$500
Threaded ends work great for just about any piercing. In general, our stock of threaded ends will be larger, more decorative pieces like gemmed clusters or for piercings in which threadless ends are not recommended for like tongue piercings. Most of our 14k threaded ends will be in stock in 14 gauge/12 gauge – we rarely stock 16 gauge threaded ends. All threaded ends will need a labret or barbell to hold them in, pricing for these varies from $30-40.
Price range: $75-$150
Plain seam rings are used strictly in fully healed piercings. We always have these in stock in 20 gauge, 18 gauge, and 16 gauge in white, yellow, and rose gold and a variety of diameters to accommodate most piercings.
Price Range: $145-$1200
Average Price: $350-$600
Decorative seam rings are used for fresh daith and septum piercings but are otherwise used only in fully healed piercings.
Decorative seam rings in diameters appropriate to be used in a fresh daith or septum piercing start around $300 typically.
Price range: $400-$2200
We rarely pierce with clickers due to the location of the hinge on the ring. Often the hinge is placed in an area where it will rotate through the healing piercing and cause irritation. For this reason, our inventory of clickers is typically limited.
*Not all clickers are unsafe to pierce with, just many of them.
Price range: $300
Fixed bead rings are used for fresh daith and septum piercings but are otherwise used only in fully healed piercings. We typically have these in stock in 16 gauge and a variety of diameters.
Pricing reflects the sizing we typically have in stock. Custom ordered sizes will likely vary in price.
Price Range: $275-$1500
Average Price: $275-$400
Curved barbells are used for rook, vertical labret, eyebrow, and navel piercings. We typically have these in stock in sizes suitable for rook, eyebrow, and vertical labret piercings at all times but do not always have sizes suitable for all navels in stock.
Price range: $350-$500
Circular barbells are used for fresh septum and sometimes daith piercings but are otherwise used only for healed piercings. We try to always have these in stock in a variety of sizes but they are not always available.
Price range: $400-$1000
We do not always have these in stock in a variety of sizes but when we do have them in stock they are typically in sizes that work best for nipple piercings. Pricing is shown for a single barbell.
Price range: $90-600
Average $90-$300
Chains are used for healed piercings only. We stock a huge variety of chain lengths in simple designs to accommodate nearly any piercing. More decorative chain designs will be in stock in a less wide variety of sizes.
Price range: $60-$1000
Average: $90-$250
Charms are used for healed piercings only. We always have a wide variety of charms in stock.
Price range: $90-$180
Labrets are the backing that hold most piercings in. All threadless ends will need either a titanium or a gold threadless labret. We tend to have a small inventory of threadless labrets in sizes that work for fully healed ear and nostril piercings. We do not typically have threaded 14k labrets in stock.
Ask us about decorative back labrets!
Price range: $20-$40
A labret is a straight post with a flat disc that sits on the back of your piercing and holds your decorative end in – this part is not visible for most piercings. Any of our decorative ends will fit onto the front of the labret. When a piercing is downsized after the initial swelling has subsided, the original labret is discarded and a new, shorter one is installed. For this reason, we don’t typically pierce with 14k labrets. The ASTM F-136 implant grade titanium labrets that we use are nickel free and are just as safe as the gold that we carry for those with sensitive skin.
Price range: $30-$60
We have a very limited inventory of titanium threadless ends. All titanium threadless ends will need to be paired with a threadless labret to hold them in place.
Price range: $35-$45
Our titanium threaded end inventory is primarily used for nipple and navel piercings. All threaded titanium ends will need to be paired with a straight barbell or curved barbell to hold them in.
Price range: $30-$140
Our titanium curved barbell selection ranges in gauges from 16 gauge – 12 gauge and in a wide variety of lengths. We stock them in threadless at 16 gauge and in threaded at 16 gauge – 12 gauge. Threadless titanium curved barbells work great in rook piercings paired with a 14k end. Threadless curved barbells start at $30 but are not suited for all piercings. Threaded curved barbells with simple titanium ball ends cost $50 and are better suited for most piercings.
Our decorative titanium curved barbell selection is stocked only in sized intended for navel piercings.
Price range: $50-$60
We always have a variety of diameters in gauges 16 – 12 and will sometimes have gauges 10 – 6 in stock in a smaller variety of diameters.
Price range: $30-$50
$30 titanium straight barbells do not include ends to hold the piercing in. $50 titanium straight barbells are including plain titanium ball ends. Titanium straight barbells with decorative ends will be priced at $30 per barbell plus the price of the end you chose, this works the same as a threadless labret with a threadless top/end. We stock these in sizes intended to accommodate nipple and industrial piercings. We always have sizes used for nipples in stock in both threaded and threadless but typically stock sizes used for industrials only in threaded.

- While this piercing does not get downsized like piercings done with studs, the ring will need to be large enough to accommodate for swelling so generally the smallest ring diameter we pierce with is 3/8″ or 7/16″ depending on anatomy. If your goal is a smaller diameter ring, typically we will need to wait until the piercing is fully healed before safely installing a smaller diameter.
The tragus is the little bit at the front of your ear that is often shaped like a triangle. Sometimes clients call these their “nub” and we think that’s super fun!

Types of Body Piercings
Okay floating navel piercings aren’t a different type of service than double gem navel piercing services but we have a lot of people ask if this is something we can offer so we decided to add it to our list of services! Floating navel piercings are designed for those with collapsing belly buttons. That just means that when you’re standing, seated, or lying down the top and bottom of your navel touch each other. These are more common than double gemmed navel piercings but we’ll do an anatomy check before we pierce you to ensure you have the best jewelry for your own unique anatomy!
Here’s some more info on floating navel piercings:
- Anatomy dependent
- Average price for one navel piercing with jewelry is about $115-480

No matter what your anatomy looks like, we’ll do an anatomy check before we pierce you to ensure you have the best jewelry for your own unique anatomy!
Here’s some more info on navel piercings:

- Jewelry style: threaded curved barbell with either fixed gem on or removable ball on bottom and decorative 14 gauge/12 gauge end
We don’t post photos of nipple piercings online so we often get asked if we even offer them and we totally do! Nipple piercings tend to be the most popular from October – December because it’s unsafe to swim while they’re healing. If you love to swim in the summer, definitely wait until winter!
Here’s some more info on nipple piercings:
- They don’t hurt nearly as bad as you likely think!
- The most popular jewelry we stock for nipple piercings are titanium barbells with either 14k ball ends or titanium opal ends

While our piercers have experience with a variety of genital piercings, they are not frequently requested at AVA so we stock very minimal jewelry for them. Our most commonly requested genital piercing is a VCH piercing so we always have jewelry in stock for them. If you’re interested in another type of genital piercing, please reach out prior to booking and we can refer you to another safe piercer if we do not have the jewelry in stock. If you would prefer to do your own research, visit safepiercing.org for assistance locating an APP member.
Genital piercings cost $65.
Other Services
We do not charge a service fee for downsizing, even if we didn’t pierce you! You’ll just need to purchase the jewelry!
When you get pierced by us, we offer $10 off your new backing when you downsize in a timely manner. For example, if you were pierced with a $20 threadless labret then the downsized post will cost $10 and if you were pierced with a $40 threaded labret then the downsized post will cost $30.
If you were pierced elsewhere, we will need to ensure that your jewelry is compatible with the jewelry we stock in order to downsize by just changing out the backing/barbell/labret. If you were pierced by a member of the Association of Professional Piercers then we can guarantee our jewelry will be compatible.
If your jewelry is not compatible with the verifiable brands that we stock, we’re happy to help you pick out new jewelry!
This is our most popular service! Whether you’re looking for jewelry for just one piercing or a whole styling appointment for your existing piercings, we can’t wait to help you!
We do not have a service fee for jewelry changes but we do not install jewelry purchased elsewhere.
Even if we didn’t pierce you, we’re here for you!
We WANT your piercings to heal so we’ll be here for you every step of the way 💜
We never charge a service fee for check up appointments.
If you need immediate assistance or if you can’t make it in quickly, email us photos and details about your piercing for quicker help. If you’re having a piercing emergency during business hours and we don’t have any last minute appointments available, please call us and we’ll do everything we can do accommodate you.
Depending on how many piercings you need removed and how difficult the removal process is, removal fees are $0-20.

Services we do not offer
We currently don’t offer digital curations as we believe curating is best done in person. We have connections with piercers worldwide and would gladly assist you in finding a local and reliable piercer. This allows you to support someone in your community, and your piercer can assess your anatomy for the best jewelry selection! 💜
However, we do occasionally help clients who live in more rural areas with no reputable piercers near by. If you have healed piercings, know the sizes you need, and are comfy installing jewelry at home then we’d be happy to assist you! Just shoot us an email us at avapiercing@gmail.com ☺️
Otherwise, let us know where you live and we can refer you to someone in your area 🥰
Your safety is our priority! For that reason, we do not offer the piercings listed below:
- “Snake eyes” | tip of the tongue piercings
- “Scoop” tongue piercings
The below piercings are those that we do not feel comfortable offering at our studio. Some of these have safety concerns while others are just our personal preference.
• Surface piercings | dermal, surface anchor, surface bars, etc
• Frenulum piercings | Smiley, tongue web, etc.
• Cheek piercings
• We rarely offer snug or anti tragus piercings due to their difficulty to heal and how anatomy dependent they are. If you are interested in one of these piercings, please feel free to reach out for a consultation.
