We had a girls day and decided on a whim that we all wanted piercings. We walked in around 4:30-5 and after paper work we were taken back almost immediately. Everyone was so professional and friendly. They even gave me a bottle of saline as a belated birthday gift they were very thorough with cleaning and proper care instructions

Christine and the team at piercology are wonderful and kind people! I got my lobes done and resized my helix. Christine made the process super easy and enjoyable, and they even checked on me in the middle of the piercing change to make sure I was doing ok! Everything was very clean as well. The person who helped me at the front desk (I didn't catch their name, sorry!) Was very kind and easy to talk to. They let me take my time choosing jewelry and was very patient with me. They asked my budget, and they worked with it. I mentioned I liked mushrooms and bees, and they brought out those for me to

Update:
I got more piercings (shock). Like always, they did great! I had Nick this time and he made sure I liked the placement before piercing me and was very easy to talk to. I even got my helix redone (in the original picture with my daith, my old helix was infected and I took it out months after this review. With masks, it wasn't healing correctly).
If anybody cares, this is a timeline of how long I've been coming here (and this is the ONLY place I will go)
2017 (my freshman year): I got my lobes pierced here. I don't remember who did them, but they did a great job.

It's been a year and a few more piercings later and I'm happy to share that this place still rocks. I had a rook earring fall out of my ear in my sleep and panicked that it would heal up. It had been a year so I rushed my butt over there to try and save it.
Dylan was great and I'm so glad we were able to recover it. He also did the other two I randomly decided to get while I was there. It was nice to have the same person consistently. Oh, and I bought two new rose gold hoops for my cartilage piercings. They were $75 a piece but after purchasing their jewelry last year and it really

I can’t say enough good things about this shop. Everyone was so kind and helpful and explained every part of the process in detail, from picking out jewelry to how the piercing is performed and aftercare instructions. Dylan made the piercing itself such an easy experience and I barely felt it. I was very impressed with the cleanliness and their sterile procedures. It looks amazing and I will definitely be going back for any future piercings! :)

I came here for a very "intimate" type of piercing and was very nervous. Piercology has a professional and chill vibe, the folks at the front desk were so helpful and informative about types of jewelry and aftercare. Christine was my piercer, she made me feel very comfortable and did a great job on my piercings.
Overall, I had an amazing experience and will definitely be returning for all of my piercing needs!

I went here to get jewelry from another shop fixed and I found out that they can only use jewelry from their own shop, completely understandable! So I picked out a piece of jewelry to replace my other one and while it was a bit expensive, good jewelry is definitely worth the money. They took me back (practically no wait) and Christine informed me that the complete wrong jewelry was used to pierce my forward helix (the piercing I was getting jewelry changed on). Christine took the time to explain what was wrong with the jewelry used and I decided to get the jewelry changed on the second forward

Had a wonderful experience. I went with my friend and we loved it. Easy paperwork and check in. We did a walk in. Very clean of course and great with number of people in waiting room. The lady in the front explained the options for jewelry and earcare. Nick Strange was so helpful explaining what was going to happen, made sure placement was exactly what I wanted. I am so excited to go back for another piercing. Thank you!

Booked 2 appointments for a helix piercing and two ear lobe piercings with Dylan. Jewelry variations are nice and high quality. I wanted a helix marquise but it was $300 so I asked Dylan if I can email the shop for me to pick inspiration jewelry i want and they said they will try to source it for me with vendors that are safe for your body. Its best they review the kind/type you want and consult what is recommended safe. Especially for the initial healing of the piercing. Kathy prepped me and dotted a few places for me to choose to pierce from. They do hand you a pamphlet so that you can remember

Overall, clean place. Safe with jewelry handling. Spent almost $200 on two pairs of earrings + a cartilage stud. (Jewelry only - not piercing). They don’t sell in pairs. You have to buy the earring post (back piece) and then the front piece x4. 🧐 didn’t know that until I paid and asked for an itemized receipt.
Covid - have to check in then wait outside. Still taking walk-ins. Can be lengthy at times.

I went here to get a piece of jewelry replaced because I lost the last one I purchased. I looked up the directions on Google and the hours show closing at 9pm. I arrived at 8:00pm walk in and they say they are closed. 1. Why was the door still unlocked and I was able to walk in. 2. If you knew you were closed why Ask how can you help me. I told them I just wanted to buy a piece of jewelry. The guy kept saying no we are closed. I told him the hours show 9pm and someone else said I must have been looking at another location. The were rude and they knew it so I was given a $10 gift card but I don

I had a nostril piercing done by Dylan after mulling over it for years, and I am so glad I finally took the leap! The staff that greet you as you walk in are all very kind and knowledgeable on aftercare, jewelry choices, etc. Everything was very clean, sanitary and I felt very safe in my decision to come here. Also, I am not sure if I just have only heard horror stories, but the piercing itself did not hurt at all- my eyes didn't even water! Dylan must just be a master in this craft. Of course everyone's pain tolerance will be different, but the experience definitely put my anxious self

I went in a couple months ago with a issues revolving around 2 piercings that i had done at a different shop. The staff was all super helpful and gave me advice. I ended up removing the piercings with intentions of going back to have them redone at a later date. I ended up going back with a different plan for my piercings and had the best experience!

I finally caved in and allowed my 17 year old to get his ear pierced! We made an appointment and my disappointment started when I realized that the earring was $40 per ear and $20 per piercing. I was expecting to pay $30-$40 total. So when they tried to sale me normal saline that is $2-3 at drug stores it was a hard NO. I also did not like my driver license being copied. Verify the license and sign a form that you verified ... I don't need my info available like that! SO WHEN THE TECH MARKED HIS EAR SHE ASKED IF I LIKED THE LOCATION, when I replied the move it slightly lower she said

I went into this shop on a whim. I had hip dermals for 6 years and I decided it was time to get them out. Back when I got them I never wore any high waisted pants... but now that's all I wear & it would often irritate them! I woke up one morning and one of the tops fell out and I knew it was time.
I'm writing this to help people know that hip dermals can last that long & also that the scarring hasn't been as bad as I thought!
I did wait for quite some time, but they have appts! The guy who removed mine was very nice and it was only $5 to get all three removed-- super cheap

I went and got my second piercing on my lobe and my navel pierced with my friend who got her navel pierced also. I think her piercing is healing up well, but my navel is irritated. I have many piercings and this one is not healing like the others have. The jewelry they thought fit is way to tight so my piercing can't heal properly and is sore and red. Even the piercer looked at it after and didn't say anything and I noticed something was possibly weird about it but couldn't tell at the time. My ear is healing fine. Not the most pleased that no one said anything about it cause now

I got my first piercing here, just the traditional ear lobe first hole. The staff was very knowledgeable and kind. They let me look at several earring stud options, and I went with a titanium with clear CZ fronts. It wasn't exactly clarified beforehand when I called that the prices are for one earring, not for two. So I did end up spending $80 on the jewelry but they are high quality. They also provided detailed cleaning instructions and sea salt. I purchased the extra cleaning situation as well. The actual piercing room was clean and Ben was my piercer. I could tell he took the time to make

Overview Location:
This cute little awesome shop is located on 2nd St between Hunter and Ewing. The decor in this place is pretty chill and my fav color purple. It is quite small but they hold it down when it gets crowded.
Customer Service:
The customer service here is most definitely on point. Fast food and banks need to take notes from the staff here on how customer service should be done. The way it is done you are in line to pay for your piercing and jewelry first, then you see a different person who will be doing the actual piercing. Ben was my piercer! Hes awesome!!! Pretty good
