After over a year of searching for an extraordinary piercer, through a mutual friend, we were pointed towards Amy Bidwell. Born and raised in Markham, she moved to thunder bay where she completed a piercing apprenticeship. Since then, she has been committed to her mentor for over 5 yrs. We were so impressed by her work that we offered her a job. In June, Amy made the trip down to Toronto to complete her training in blood borne pathogens and infection control so that she had the qualifications we require in our studio. We have been greatly anticipating Amy’s arrival for 5 months now!
as many of you know, Jayme has been doing all the piercings in the studio on top of running the shop and her tea and holistic business is rapidly growing. In her 13 yrs of piercing, Jayme has worked with and learnt from the best in the industry including, Tom Brazda and the late but not for gotten Keith Alexander, earned many awards and has been recognized and well respected for her proactive work with the local health departments and for educating others to bring up the standards of practice for the industry we love so much. She was the first piercer in Canada to insist on piercing only with internally threaded titanium jewelry, despite the cost.
Jayme has known for quite some time now that the next phase of her destiny was calling her, with her holistic business growing so rapidly, she has long felt that the time was nearing to pass her wealth of knowledge onto a so deserving piercer. Recognizing a younger version of herself in Amy, Jayme has no doubt that Amy is going to be a huge success here at integral temple and she cant wait to bring Amy to the next level in her magnificent career. Amy is brilliant, zany, gorgeous and full of gusto and were sure you’re all going to love her as much as we do!
Amy will be starting on Sept 7, 2010; be sure to come on in and meet her!
