Studs

We started in 2019, offering needle piercing services and selling earrings. Our experts help customers create a personalized “Earscape®”—a unique combination of piercings and piercings for self-expression. We sell affordable, fashionable earrings in our 26 studios nationwide and online. Our corporate team is based in New York, NY, as we continue to expand across the U.S.

Our goal is to be the national authority on Earscaping®. Our culture is built on three values:

• We’re All in this Together: We emphasize teamwork, integrity, and respect as we create the Earscaping® experience.
• We’re All Ears: We foster a culture of feedback and transparency, building our company with diverse people and perspectives. We are committed to equitable and transparent treatment for everyone.
• We’re Always Growing: We believe in continuous growth, learning, and improvement for individuals, teams, and the company. We innovate, iterate, learn from mistakes, and provide resources for professional development.

Studs has 201-500 employees. The company values collaboration, feedback, and continuous improvement. We encourage diverse perspectives and aim for equitable and transparent treatment for all team members. Employees are expected to be driven, creative problem-solvers who learn from an experienced team and contribute to an environment where individuals feel seen, safe, heard, and respected. Some corporate roles offer a flexible work environment, typically three days in the office and two days working from home. All corporate functions are based in New York, NY.
