There’s a new addition coming to The Summit this April. Rowan, a woman-owned and operated piercing shop, is currently under construction between Free People and Anthropologie.

Rowan offers safe, no judgment piercings for all

According to its website, Rowan’s mission is “piercing for all, by licensed nurses.” The team of trained nurses offers services for all ages and ear placements, with an assortment of jewelry.

Rowan makes the piercing process easy, featuring online booking and in-depth aftercare instructions. To reduce the risk of allergic reactions, they don’t use piercing guns or cheap metals.

From hoops to studs, all of Rowan’s earrings are hypoallergenic in a range of materials:

14K Gold
Gold vermeil
Gold plating over sterling silver
Sterling silver

Online pre-booking at Rowan’s upcoming location is now available for late April.

What else is new at The Summit?

This Spring, The Summit has welcomed a slew of new businesses.

The Carhartt store opened at the shopping center in early February. Culinary Dropout, an upcoming hub for food, drinks and live music, celebrates its grand opening March 20.
