I got my nose piercings removed by Peter, and it was the most wonderful and calm experience I could have possibly asked for. I cannot emphasize how much you should come here and how every person who works here is incredibly kind and wonderful!!

I got my nose pierced about a year ago. The piercer Peter was very professional and explained the process throughly. I have had my noses pierced before in Arizona and when I left, it bled for 2 hours. Closed up after a two-three months. But here it did not bleed or become infected. After 10 months I wanted to changed the piercing but I couldn’t get it out my nose. The piercer Peter got it out with ease and placed another one with very little to no pain. Better than I could have done. Then this past Sunday my nose piercing fell out. I was afraid it was going to close. So I tried to get it repierced close to where I lived since they were closed, and I just can’t get the nose piercing in my nose too sensitive of an area for me to truly try. No one would pierce it. All told me it mostly already closed. I called them they got me in the same day today and also told me it probably wasn’t closed, and just a matter of maneuvering. I was afraid I was going to have to repierce my nose for a third time but…They were right. It went in, the hole hadn’t closed, had a little bit of pain but the fact they got it in without a problem is amazing. Honestly best piercer and piercing place I’ve been too.

They are helping me remove my piercings, and the receptionist was so lovely!! I cannot emphasize how wonderful she was, and how wonderful this whole experience is. Please go here for tattoos piercing and anything else. No other shop in the area has given me that level of customer service and kindness. 💚

I made an appointment to get a helix piercing in my left ear as I’m retiring from the service. When I got to the shop the sweet young lady at the front made me feel right at home. Peter was fantastic. He puts you right at ease, explains what he’s going to do and shows you the equipment and explains aftercare very thoroughly. I Highly recommend Black Water for your piercing needs.

Got my daughters ears pierced and my nose pierced by Peter. Messaged him on Instagram and scheduled with him directly which made the whole thing super easy to coordinate and able to get in quickly. Such a nice guy. Really patient and took his time with us. Happy with his work and our experience!

Got my nose pierced by Peter, when I had to get it removed due to mri scans and weeks in the hospital I was heartbroken. He did such a wonderful job that I knew I wanted him to redo it. It had healed amazing because of how cleanly he did the piercing to begin with. I highly recommend Peter!! You can tell he is passionate. He gives you a lovely aftercare sheet with a way to reach him. I just went back today and got it repierced and again it was so quick and precise. This is someone who knows what they are doing and how to make new and returning people happy and comfortable. He went over any questions I had (I forgot how long it takes to heal, it's 2 months with 1 month of the cleaning ritual which is soap and water in the morning and saline at night.) If you ever want a piercing go to Peter!! He will not disappoint, and he is very friendly. The bedside manner of the whole place is welcoming and friendly. You almost feel like you're returning back to a group of friends when you step in. I highly recommend the place, and I cannot say that enough.

It’s expensive place the peircing was like 60 with lowest rate jwelery and the tattoo was little but expensive also it’s fine but not like I thought it would be!

Got my upper ear lobes pierced by Peter after having to remove my initial piercing I got elsewhere, due a bad infection. Peter took time to hear my experience and skin sensitivity. He explained the process, answered all my endless questions and did a near pain free job. He’s attentive and empathetic. Definitely an expert in piercings and I’m elated I’ve got my ears pierced by him.

I called early in the afternoon and was able to get a same day appointment for 4 pm with Peter for a piercing. As soon as I walked though the door I felt very “at home” and welcomed by the staff. I was feeling indecisive whether I wanted a helix or tragus piercing. Peter was wonderful and answered all my questions. I could tell he was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about piercing. He told me what he was going to do once I decided on the helix. The piercing itself was done very quickly. Afterwards I felt a little light headed so I laid down and the receptionist came over with some water and a glucose tablet. Both helped me so much that I felt back to normal within minutes. They both made sure I was ok, and did not rush me when it came to getting up to check out. I appreciated their patience and attention to how I was feeling. I will absolutely go back to Peter for more piercings in the future. I couldn’t recommended him and the establishment more. 100% worth the visit !
