According to Rowan’s website, the service is for piercings in the lobe, upper lobe and helix. Staff members do not use piercing guns, the website states.

KSAT has reached out to Target to ask if the service will be added to other stores in Texas or the San Antonio area in the future. This story will be updated when that information becomes available.

So far, the service is also available at Target stores in Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth and Houston.

Rowan currently offers an at-home piercing service in the Houston area for $135.
