We Don't Do Average. 

The dahlia outlasts nearly every other garden flower, shedding old labels over centuries without losing its grace. We didn't choose this name by accident.

​

Dahlia was built for people who want their piercing done properly. That means a clean studio, a piercer who listens, jewelry that's safe for your body, and no judgment about what you're getting or why.

​

We're Nashville's appointment-only fine jewelry and body piercing studio — and we take just as much pride in a child's first earlobes as we do in anything else we do.

​

Come find us at 1313 Dickerson Pike, Nashville TN 37207.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: make every person who comes to Dahlia feel safe, respected, and thrilled with their results. No shortcuts on materials. No rushing the process. No judgment - ever. Just skilled, caring work done right.

Our Studio 

Dahlia is appointment-only — for everything, including jewelry shopping and changes. When you're here, the studio is yours. No waiting room. No other clients. Just your appointment, your questions, and our full attention.

​

Arrive on time, eat something beforehand, and dress comfortably with easy access to the area being pierced. Please don't handle your own piercings or jewelry while you're in the studio — hygiene is everything here.

All initial piercings are performed with jewelry from our studio. Once fully healed, you're welcome to bring your own pieces in for installation.
