Millennial flashback moment: remember getting your ears pierced at Claire's in the mall and feeling like you'd unlocked a new personality?
This is the grown-up version of that nostalgia.
For this Local Look, we spent the day supporting a favorite local spot - Rowan in Cherry Creek - because part of caring for your health (yes, even hormones) is making space for joy, connection, and play.
Rowan offers a clean, elevated piercing experience done by licensed nurses with high-quality, hypoallergenic jewelry...aka: nostalgia, but refined.
Here's the thing I love reminding you of: Happiness, social connection, and feeling good in your body matter.
Those small, joyful experiences (especially when shared with a best friend) aren't "extra." They're part of supporting your nervous system, your mood, and yes... your hormones.
Sometimes self-care looks like labs and lifestyle shifts.
And sometimes it looks like a spontaneous ear party with your best friend.
This is your reminder to:
-support local
-nurture community
-let yourself enjoy adorning the outside too
Because it all counts.
Tag the friend you'd go with!
Tell me: first piercing or adding to the collection?
