This is actually my first visit at this studio! I found them on Instagram & have been wanting to check the place out for months now. I love that they also have specials on services and jewelry every now & then. Came in 30 minutes before closing, very spur of the moment thing, with a nose piercing in mind. Thankfully they were able to squeeze me in! While browsing their jewelry, I noticed so many beautiful pieces! I definitely will be back to purchase more jewelry & to maybe get a flash tattoo. The front desk staff was very kind and knowledgeable. The studio was was cute and clean. My piercer was Alex & she did a great job suggesting the placement and with the whole procedure. I would definitely recommend this studio to my friends and family. read more

Baron Art Tattoo & Piercing Studio - Fresh nose piercing! - Tattoo Near Me - Berkeley, California

Came in last minute as I needed my ear piercings put back. I have long nails and had to have my rook and double tragus piercings removed temporarily for an mri I was having. The shop I went to originally to have them removed closed and I didn't want to risk the hole closing so I drove to Baron's. Before I came, I called and the person who answered was nice, informative and so I quickly made my way over before they closed. Was lucky enough to find parking a block away. Really nice studio when you walk in. Well lit and very clean. I was greeted as soon as I got in and they helped me right away. I was in and out of there quickly. Can't recommend them enough. Would come back to maybe get some tats or piercings/jewelry in the future. Thanks for the speedy service! read more

Back again for some fresh ink! This time, my brother and I got sibling tattoos-- Snorlax and Munchlax on our calves. We booked with Memo and made the appointment a day before. Baron Art Tattoo Studio is very easy to setup an appointment with. Both times I've coordinated the tattoos via text and it's been seamless each time. Memo worked hard to make sure that both of our tattoos were in the same position on both of our legs even though the tattoos were very different in size. He also took great photos at the end for us! Memo was very welcoming and accommodating. He was attentive and made sure that we were both comfortable when getting tattooed and when waiting for our turn. read more

Great experience getting a helix piercing. I was in and out with no appointment in less than 20 minutes. My artist did a great job calling my nerves and the earring I picked was fun and unique. Less than $100 for piercing, earring, and saline spray + tip. read more

Update: after the last review I left on 12/16/25, the owner/manager must have looked up my information from the consent forms I signed, then called and texted me to apologize. At no point did they pressure me to remove/edit my review, and took accountability for the issue. I feel ... strange about that, but I appreciate that they tried to correct the issue. However, my original review left out a few details that I thought about for a few weeks and decided to google. When removing my septum ring, the piercer used pliers and pulled the two ends away from each other. She asked if I would be coming back to get the jewelry put back in after my medical appts, and I said "yeah probably" so she told me not to bend the piercing back into a circle. I was in a hurry, and didn't look at the jewelry before putting it in my bag, but the experience felt strange. I ignored that nagging feeling until late last night, and I googled how to pull apart hoops and confirmed that she did not do the normal process. Rather than separate the ends into a spiral, she pulled it open like a W instead of an S. Upon researching it, I read that opening a hoop this way weakens the metal and is hard to push back into a circle. I can't remember what type of material my jewelry is made of, but it sounds like I'll need to buy a new one. read more

Got my helix and double on the other side! Great service, vibe and atmosphere was nice!

Walked in for a helix and snug piercing and everyone was so patient and nice!!! They have a wide variety of jewelry and they're all titanium. Perfect for girlies who have sensitive ear like me. :) read more

Came in spontaneously with my roomie since I had been talking about getting a second earlobe piercing. Loved how welcoming and helpful the staff were. They have a wide variety of jewelry as well and I also ended up getting an another nose piercing. Pricing was also fairly reasonable, $15 per lobe + jewelry cost (starts at $45 each for titanium). read more

I visited Baron Art during their grand opening specials thanks to a friend who swears by their SoCal locations (so very belated review haha). On our first visit, I got a piercing from Yalin, who was super informative and made sure my anatomy was suitable for what I wanted; super appreciate how ethical and thoughtful that was! The shop was super clean with a great selection of titanium jewelry. I got an industrial piercing, which I was really nervous about, but Yalin walked me through it calmly and it barely hurt. The staff were also really clear with aftercare which helped a ton. We went back soon after for our friend's piercing, and Yalin even checked in on mine (which, spoiler alert: was unfortunately super swollen... my bad lol). They told me to stop by anytime if I was experiencing difficulties with my piercing or needed guidance on cleaning it. I also got a tattoo from Peko, who was super sweet and patient with my ideas. It turned out great, and the grand opening offer was such a good deal. Bonus: they give you a card for a free touch-up and 15% off your next visit! Baron Art = great vibes, great people, and really solid work :) this is ur sign to get that piercing or tattoo you've been thinking about hehe read more

I came here yesterday for a new piercing to take advantage of their $10 poke deal. I love Baron for their high quality experiences at their SoCal locations so I had to come here too. I got a helix piercing done by Yalin and this one was the best experience I've had to date. Over my life, I've been to 7 different piercers with 12 individual piercings and this one has been the best overall. Besides the initial pain of getting pierced, I have not felt anything at all. Usually my ears burn for hours and throb for the following weeks/days but I have not felt pain at all from this one since I walked out the shop. Their selection of jewelry is amazing with many unique options to choose from in both design and material. Everyone was incredibly patient with answering all my questions, too. read more

I got my fourth piercing on both of my earlobes. The process was super quick and smooth thanks to Alex (Alejandra). Ya Lin was also super helpful with getting us set up prior to getting our piercings and made us feel welcome as soon as we walked in. The pricing is affordable with the starting price at $15 for the service. So I paid $30 total for both my lobes and then added on my jewelry pricing. 10/10 would highly recommend! I'll be back :) read more

They were so fast and helpful. I got my nose pierced here and felt right at home! I will be coming back for my next piercing and/or tattoo!

Stopped by today at their brand new Berkeley location. I moved to the Bay Area from LA and I have to say I was so excited when I found out they were opening a new location here. Angie was my artist today and she is amazing! Very friendly, upbeat and very detailed. Having gotten tattoos from multiple artists at Baron Art I can honestly say they are ALL very talented, the attention to detail is amazing, they make you feel comfortable and at ease. I LOVE IT there, every visit is a great visit. read more

I recently got a custom-designed zen circle design tattoo on my left forearm with highly detailed flowers and shading from Peko at Baron Art Tattoo & Piercing Studio. Peko is phenomenal! She is incredibly skilled with a high level of attention to detail and the tattoo is a carbon copy of her design. She is very professional, and I felt taken care of throughout the process. The shading and line work is superb. So far the tattoo has healed wonderfully as they use a second skin covering before you leave as well as instructions on further care. I also got a free touch up within 6 months to make sure everything heals properly. The process took about 5 hours, but I was comfortable throughout. The shop was clean and professional with a chill vibe. Everyone there was friendly and accommodating. Even when I had difficulty with Zelle, for payment, they were patient and understanding. Overall I can't wait to return to Baron Art Tattoo & Piercing Studio and have Peko design my next tattoo. read more
