Chameleon Tattoo & Body Piercing

Nothing but praise for this place. Got my ears pierced and the man doing it was incredibly professional, courteous and nice enough to walk through each step as he did it. He also marked on my ears where he would make the hole before actually doing it, making sure that I was happy with the placement and taking due diligence to put it in a position that wouldn't cause sagging in the long run. Highly recommend for anyone and especially if you're having your kids first piercings done.

We just returned home from having my daughter's ears pierced. This was the 3rd time, as her ears became infected when we had them done at Piercing Pagoda and Claire's. The time that Owen took to explain when he was doing, right down to washing her ears, was super professional. He was just amazing! Everyone who works there is very personable. The young lady with orange and blue hair (so sorry! I never got her name!), was so sweet when I THOUGHT I had made an appt for last week! OOPS! Hands down the best place to go for piercings!! I might just have to go back and get my first tattoo! Amazing customer service from beginning to end! I highly recommend Chameleon!!!

Ear piercing for 13 year old who was nervous. While the person who did the piercing was very kind, he talked for so long that she actually became more and more anxious. It was painful and they charge a fortune. I know they are anti- Claire's but I think that would have been a better choice for us.

After the 14th time being told, when I get my daughter's ears RE-pierced, I need to see Owen. (There was a prior Claire's failure on 1 of two ears.) We were not dissapointed; this was fast, easy, accurate and as a bonus I didn't need to cringe at the "sterile" technique employed. Will never see anyone else for future juvenile ear piercings, especially since they are moving even closer. Soon to be True Love Body Piercing of Watertown!

I really liked Chameleon pre-Covid, and I have had excellent experiences with piercers themselves, but the unprofessional and unkind manner of the front desk staff (on multiple occasions) will make me stop going to Chameleon. I arrived a few minutes early, but apparently not early enough, once, to be told I was not on time. I asked specifically beforehand if I should arrive early, and since it was just a piercing post getting shortened, was told no. I work in customer service and understand the exhaustion all workers workers face, but they were blatantly hurtful.

So... this was not a good experience. The actual piercing appointment itself went great. I went with 2 of my roommates and we all felt safe in COVID, and liked the placement of our piercings etc. (even though they were a little mean when we called and said we'd be late). We left happy with the experience. However, it all went downhill from there. We all took meticulous care of our piercings, following all the instructions given to us, and all three went wrong. Less than a month after my ear was pierced it spontaneously went into the piercing. I had no issues or infection with it before that day. I had to go to urgent care and get it cut out of my ear. Let me tell you, it was the most traumatizing experience ever. The doctor there told me that it was the piercers fault based on the size and placement of the earring. She was not impressed. Now its 3 months later and the other two girls I went with both had issues- 1 fell out about a month ago and one's got wildly infected today. I'm not sure if its the jewelry they're using, or the piercings, or the care they recommend after but something is just not right. I regret spending so much money here and absolutely recommend that you do not. Never go here!!!!

Owen is an amazing professional. He made me feel amazingly comfortable, especially taking into account my tendency to pass out when I see needles, lol. I got my ear pierced and he was kind, VERY sanitary and hygienic, and helped calm me while also educating me properly about the procedure. If you want to come here during Covid, do not be scared!! The shop is only allowing one customer in at a time and they have the best sanitation methods I have seen. Great job guys!! I will always come here for my family's piercing needs and recommend them to all my friends and family.

Owen is wonderful! His calm and comforting presence made it a breeze for my daughter to get her ears pierced. The space is immaculate and they are serious about healthy piercing procedures. Would never go anywhere else.

This was a fantastic place to bring my daughter (age 7) when she wanted her ears pierced. As many other reviewers have noted, Owen does a fantastic job. He had a great manner with her: calmly talked through every step with her so that there were no surprises, told her what to expect at all points and the reasons why he was doing what he was doing, answered all her questions, and constantly conveyed a positive, cheerful, and calm attitude. When one of her starter earrings fell out halfway through the healing period, we went back and he cheerfully got things sorted out and educated us about what happened and how to fix it, without making anybody feel bad or incompetent. Overall, he made the experience not only safe, but positive and celebratory for her.

I was so impressed that when I wanted *my* ears pierced I just immediately went back to him. 😁

Such an amazing experience for my granddaughter (5yrs) I did a ton of research when she started campaigning for pierced ears. We chose Owen at Chamaeleon based on outstanding reviews. The ladies at the front desk were extremely helpful starting with all the necessary info when I made the appointment . They got us checked in efficiently, helped with the paperwork and guided my granddaughter through her earring choices. Owen was very patient and spoke directly to my granddaughter through the whole process. The actual piercing was so seamless she didn’t even flinch. The smile on her face was priceless! We left feeling very confident with aftercare information. I’ve read some mention them being pricey. This was well worth every penny to have things done safely & correctly -and be properly educated. #justsaynotomallpiercings!
