j.c. potts

j.c.’s adventures in piercings began in 1989 when he secretly had his nipples pierced by an old drag queen with earring studs. The piercings were short lived, but the interest stayed. That was soon followed by piercing all his male friend’s ears (since the local big-box stores wouldn’t pierce male ears in those days). After high school, he made his way to Dallas, where he fell in with the local piercing scene. One connection led to others and j.c. wound up attending Fakir’s Intensives in San Francisco in March of 1994. After bouncing around tattoo shops in Dallas, Austin, Lansing and Chicago, j.c. finally landed permanently at PANGEA in 2007. Since then, PANGEA has grown from a small operation to one of the largest piercing-only establishments in the Great Lakes Region.
