Fear Factor Tattoos and Piercings is where we go for all our piercings (and tattoos if we got them). They are very friendly and knowledgeable. I couldn't recommend any place more than Fear Factor!!!
Misty, who does all of my piercings, is absolutely amazing! I went in a couple of days ago because I was having a problem with my gold nose ring and she fixed it right up with no questions asked about what I had done.

Umm, quite rude. Vibes were off, as my girlfriend went to go get her industrial done, I followed. No one stopped me, and I politely stood outside the booth, as I understand giving space and being quiet to let them do their job. The piercer said nothing, but a different guy walked up real close to me and said quite rudely I would have to wait in the main room. Bc the vibes were hostile and I wanted my girl to be able to get pierced, I complied, but did not feel comfortable. There was a sign that said no extra people allowed in the booth yes, but nothing about waiting outside the booth, to keep watch and for support. This was just sketchy that I wasn’t allowed to watch, for accountability and safety, and it wasn’t because of Covid (we are low risk for covid rn and no one was wearing masks). The piercing was clean, and I was relieved. Vibes were stupid hostile and unfriendly tho. Would not go back.

I got my lower helix pierced and my friend got here rook and her tragus pierced. Both of us are healing great, and the lady who did our ears was a sweetheart! Would definitely go back again

Professional, clean, sterile environment. The artist I dealt with was so nice and personable! Will definitely go back for all my tattoo and piercing needs!

Got 4 ear piercings roughly 6 months ago. All of them have developed MASSIVE keloids. I had to completely remove 2, in hopes of saving the piercing I tried putting a different earring and have to move it all around to find the exit hole as the piercings weren’t don’t straight through. So, out of my 4 I only have 2 left. Not 100 percent sure those will be able to stay either.

Usually fully booked for weeks. Piercing technician usually arrives at 2pm if you're looking to get a piercing. They sell jewelry that is SAFE for your piercing so it is a little more expensive, but it's the good quality stuff so it's worth it.

I have very mixed feelings about this place. Its a beautiful shop, and they do gorgeous tattoos, but be careful with the piercings. This was my first time getting a body piercing, and i got my belly button pierced. I did not see her open the needle, I just saw it sitting on her work station, so I don't know if it was used or not. I pray it wasn't. It felt like she poked around with the needle halfway through my skin, causing some pretty ugly and painful bruising, and it still came out crooked. She did a pretty bad job at explaining aftercare too. One pro: it was only $20 to get my belly button pierced, and the nice jewelry was also about $20. Just be cautious. I give three stars because their tattoos are amazing, but I don't highly recommend for piercings. Also, I've been to places that include cleaning kits. This place doesn't. Its a separate purchase. You can buy a vial of salt to mix with water for $5 or a bottle of sterile saline for $10

They are always very busy which I suppose speaks for itself. I have gone here a few times for different jewelry. The first time I wanted a new Lebrae ring and they put 1 in that was to short. I told them it wasn't going to work. They left it and 3 days later the ring had sunk into my lip and skin had completely grown over it! I had to rip it out! I went back and they put the proper size in! I went here recently and bought another lebrae. I wanted to make sure the 1 incident did not happen again so I asked them to make sure and give me the same length that I currently had in. Well this one is to long lol. It sticks out to far. I use an 8. The 1st x they put a 6 in and this x a 10. I did go back but it was going to be like a 2 hour wait for them to help put it in. They did however give me the right length bar! I can't put it in myself but they tried!

Came in to get the other side of my nose pierced, symmetrical to the other side and the piercer did such an amazing job! She spent a long time making sure they were going to be symmetrical from all angles, and the peircing proccess was easy and quick. Very happy with the outcome. Very clean work station and it was reasonably priced. My boyfriend got his ears done and she marked and pierced them with the same amount of thoroughness. Definitely coming here for any future piercings.
(They also have amazing prices on jewelry as well)
