I originally got my nipples pierced by this shop in Dec 2016. During a recent medical procedure, I had to remove the hoops. Once done, I was only able to get one hoop back in. I called the shop and stopped twice leaving my name and number for the piercing artist to call me. I never received a call back and have given up getting the second piercing redone. Read Less

I spent a lot of time deciding where to go to get my nostril piercing. I ended up going here. It was great! I have only ever had my ears pierced, so the person who does piercings, Atom, was very careful and explained everything to me. Everything was very clean and nice. There are lots of jewelry colors and sizes. Highly recommend. Read Less

I wanted to get a second septum piercing done behind my already existing septum piercing. Atom is definitely the guy to go to for a piercing such as that. The care and precision he put into ensuring I end up with a beautiful piercing is outstanding. I can tell Atom loves what he does and cares for each customer. I highly recommend him when people ask where to go for piercings. Keep up the great work, dude! Read Less

Today I decided I wanted to get my bellybutton pierced. I was a walk-in and Atom was more than welcoming of my boyfriend and I. Before we got started he explained each different ring he had on display and the differences between them all. He throughly explained the sterilization process to ensure both him and the piercing, along with everything in-between is 100% clean. He showed me the "works" and talked me through each step. He was very nice and gentle with his work which I admired greatly. I will definitely be back in the future for more piercings! I plan to go here for my first tattoo as well, I can't wait. I highly recommend Atom- I have heard many great things about him and he most definitely lived up to each and every comment. � Read Less

Went in on a Wednesday with my daughters for our noses to be pierced. Adam thoroughly explained things, was gentle and did a great job. However I wasn't happy with the placement and went back in 3 days later to have it removed. Adam graciously repierced my nose and didn't make me feel silly about wanting it redone. He is a true professional. He may cost more but he uses quality jewelry that your body will not reject. He's been doing this for many years and you can definitely tell. Thank you� Read Less

I've been in twice now for walk in cartilage piercing and a first step triple forward helix and have been blown away both times.

Alas. My nose stud was too long. It would turn downwards and make it look like I had a golden booger. Not hot. I've been meaning to go to my piercer at home (Chicago) for the last few weeks but I'd been too busy...and then, I was in Cedar Falls with nothing particular going on and I thought I'd pop into the first piercing place I saw to get it shortened and sanded. Unfortunately, the guy cut it too short, rendering it unwearable. They didn't offer to fit or place it for me, which I found odd. I also bought a nose screw because when I saw how short the guy had made my stud I suspected it was ruined. Also, no offer to fit or place it. Later, I could not for the life of me get it in and had to go somewhere else for what this place should have done. I also did not appreciate one of the tattoo artists in the back barking at me to go to a different tattoo/piercing studio in Chicago because he "know[s] a guy there that does great work." That may well be, but I adore my piercing/tattoo studio here, and I trust them and they're clean and they don't do stupid shit like ruin a gold nose stud and not fit or place new studs in-house. Also, their "cash only" sign? Is above the door. On the inside. As in, no way you would ever see it unless you turned around. I was lucky my friend had cash on him to pay for the aforementioned unplaceable nose screw. Read Less
