Mantis Wildflower first began their piercing journey back in 2018. More recently, Mantis has spent the past few years traveling the country, working as a guest piercer at some of the most prestigious APP studios (Association of Professional Piercers) the U.S. has to offer. They also regularly attend piercing seminars, conferences, and piercer meets to expand and upkeep their abilities.  Mantis first remembers being interested in body piercing in their youth, growing up listening to punk and metal. They marveled at the musicians with various piercings. Fast forward to 2023 where Mantis joined the team at 12 oz. Studios Deptford, NJ. Some of their favorite piercings to perform are septums, ear lobes, anything large gauge and featuring Chrysoprase, Oregon Sunstone, and Jade stones. Mantis’s personal setup features a combination of yellow and rose gold jewelry. Above all else, Mantis strives to create a wholesome and friendly environment for all of their clients and ensures they will have a fun piercing experience!
