Amber Edwards
Body Piercer
I've been piercing since 2019 and am proud to say that I'm currently West Virginia's only member of the Association of Professional Piercers. I started my career at Black Eagle Tattoo, a fast-paced shop, where I developed my skills and learned how to really connect with clients from my mentor, Jennifer Caballero.
Throughout the years, I've traveled across the country, refining my techniques and learning from different studios. I'm dedicated to the body piercing industry. I am fascinated by the rich history and practices of piercing and body modification. I attend the annual conference held by the Association of Professional Piercers for continuing education and to keep up to date with the best practices in the industry.
I'm committed to my clients well-being and safety, while providing a personalized experience. My current favorite piercing to perform is the ear flat due to its versatility.

My Home Shop
Electric Sanctuary Tattoo
Electric Sanctuary, was founded in 2020, in Kanawha City during the height of a global pandemic. When the staffs' original shop closed permanently on short notice, it was built from the ground up by a dedicated team of talented individuals. We've just recently moved to The Drug Emporium shopping complex on Kanawha Blvd W by Patrick Street.
It currently boasts 2 highly skilled tattooers, Zac Walker, and Angel Harless, and an up-and-coming apprentice, Amanda Estep. The Sanctuary is home to 2 passionate piercers, Jennifer Caballero, and Amber Edwards. With over a combined 50 years of experience, the folks at Electric Sanctuary are prepared to tackle almost any project you have in mind.
The shop was built on the idea of diversity and inclusivity. We want everyone to be comfortable here. A sanctuary is a place of safety and refuge after all.
