Today is National Nurses Day - and at Rowan, that hits a little differently. Our Piercing Nurses are the heart of everything we do. They hold your hand when you're nervous, make you laugh when you least expect it, and bring genuine skill, warmth, and joy to every single appointment. They don't just pierce - they make people feel seen, celebrated, and cared for. Rowan wouldn't be Rowan without them. To our incredible Piercing Nurses: thank you for showing up every day with compassion, expertise, and a spirit that makes this community what it is. We are endlessly proud to call you ours. And to everyone reading this, take a moment today to celebrate the nurses in your life. They deserve it more than words can say.
Nurses are redefining what modern care looks like - and it’s not just in hospitals. At Rowan, our Piercing Nurses bring clinical expertise to an everyday experience - improving safety, easing anxiety, and making ear piercing as safe as it is celebratory. With 100+ studios nationwide and growing, we’re hiring nurses who want to expand their careers in a whole new way.

Nurses are the heart of our mission and the driving force behind the exceptional tender love and care we deliver every day. Supporting their growth isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we invest in with intention and pride. We’re committed to creating alternative career opportunities that empower our teams to lead, innovate, and thrive, both personally and professionally. It’s our honor to support Piercing Nurse Samantha—who has been a valued member of our team for six years—as she participated in an executive leadership program at Columbia Business School. Here’s what Sam had to say about her experience. -- I feel truly fortunate to work for Rowan. From the beginning, they’ve invested time, energy, and resources into my growth. They saw a nurse with determination, curiosity, and a genuine desire to learn—and they didn’t just notice it, they nurtured it. Recently, Rowan sponsored my participation in an executive leadership program at Columbia Business School, where I had the opportunity to learn alongside leaders from around the world. I’ll admit, I was intimidated at first as each member of my cohort introduced themselves and their roles. But it didn’t take long to realize that the experiences and challenges I’ve had at Rowan have equipped me to contribute meaningfully in rooms like that. I’m proud of how far I’ve come, and I’m even more grateful to be part of an organization that believes in the value and potential of nurses.
2025 was one for the books at Rowan. We opened 37 new studios across 4 new states, reaching 100 studios nationwide and bringing safer, nurse-led ear piercing to more communities than ever.
