Rowan piercing studio debuts at Legacy Place
Dedham, MA Ear-piercing studio, Rowan, makes its Massachusetts debut with its opening at Legacy Place. Rowan brings safety to the forefront with their team of licensed nurses and stylish hypoallergenic jewelry and believes that ear piercing is a milestone moment that should always be accessible, enjoyable and safe. Founded by Louisa Serene Schneider, the idea for the brand came to her when taking her teenage nieces to get their ears pierced. The available options all lacked the perfect combination of safety and celebration and she knew she wanted a better option for her daughter; from there the idea of Rowan was born - to offer safe piercings in a way that celebrates the special experience.
Rowan at Legacy place offers ear piercings for all, from babies to elders, and features a collection of novelty earrings exclusive to the Boston area.
