My 8-year-old had a fantastic first time piercing experience with Dutch. Not only was he patient and kind with her, but he walked her through the whole process and ensured her comfort. I'd absolutely recommend! read more

Great guys! Helped me with a nose piercing that I couldn't get back in. :) Kind, considerate, professional. I highly recommend! read more

I reached out via their contact us on the website and Dutch sent an email reply within 24 hours. There was a bit of a glitch with my photos I sent but he was able to save us a time to do a double session of matching tattoos (plus a walk in small tattoo). He's efficient, funny, and loves his art. I had a great time! Dutch managed to help about 6 other groups while we were waiting for various stages of our process to be complete. I'll be back for more tattoos. Dutch is now "my tattoo guy" read more

I brought my 5 year old daughter and her friends here for piercing and Dutch was amazing!!! He was extremely patient with all the girls and made us all feel comfortable.

Dutch was great. He was the one who pierced our noses. Very calm, kind and informative. I would describe the pain as a 2/10, IF THAT! He was very good and mentioned he'd been doing tattoos for 15+ years. Dropped off a start because when we walked inside, there were 3 guys chillin with their feet kicked up and didn't acknowledge us at all until I said something. They just looked at us smh. THEEENN told me the piercer so isn't be in until 4pm!!! We got there at 1pm and drove there from Chula Vista!! So we had to come all the way back at 4 which was such an inconvenience, so call before you go just to make sure the piercer is there. I got pierced a little over a week ago and it's healing great. No bumps, infections or keloids! read more

Amazing experience very comfortable very informative and very welcoming. Everything was clean orderly and quick read more

I've been going to Dutch touch for about 4 years now and sadly I recommended this specific shop to my brother. Ive gotten tattooed by everyone in the shop except for the guy that did my brothers tattoo. He's new there and OVERCHARGES FOR SHIT WORK! How can the other guys watch as he OVERCHARGES and can't even SATURATE COLOR ? My brother had gotten this tattoo gone over 2x and now we are going to pay someone else to do the work this APPRENTICE should've done right. Really disappointed on this $260 tattoo that's absolute TRASH. If ur going to go here I would ONLY recommend Dutch, Lee, Rickey, and Seth the piercer is fucking amazing read more

A perfect experience with Seth getting my lobes re-pierced. I had 2 holes in each ear when I was younger but was allergic to alot of metals. 20 years later wanted to give it another go trying out surgical steel. Seth was super chill and made it a comfortable experience. He knows his stuff, would definitely recommend. read more

Amazing. I love these guys. My sister got pierced by Seth a few times. He did her nose. It looks great on her, and healed beautifully! Dutch (the owner) did my cartilage and my sisters last piercing. I was nervous as i'd never gotten pierced with a needle (only a claire's before lol) and it was my 18th birthday. they were very welcoming. dutch made sure that i liked the placing, he was very calm and friendly. joey, one of the younger staff chatted up my sister and i while we waited to be seen. i will most definitely go back. i would trust seth and dutch with my life. lol. read more

I have quite a few tattoos by Dutch and have always been happy with his tattooing. I also have quite a few piercings from Seth and piercings that I get at Dutch touch are the only ones that ever are able to be maintained every time I've gotten pierced somewhere else my body rejects the jewelry. I think Dutch uses higher quality jewelry and Seth always is able to pierce me without any pain. read more

They don't call it Dutch Touch for nothing, customer service was amazing. The vibe was chill and inviting. My daughter got a septum piercing, she was super nervous but they talked her through it and it went smoothly. A few weeks later we went back to get it stretched to the next gauge but they advised to wait. They know what they are doing and treat you like a human. read more

I got my nose pierced by Seth and he was great. He made me feel very calm and relaxed by making small talk and walked me through everything. It was $50 but the size of the diamond is exactly what I want and the bar is a good length to where it won't cause issues. read more

I mistakenly posted a bad review on Dutch tattoo and piercing. The review was meant for EC Tattoo and piercing. I am withdrawing the review. Please except my sincere apology. TY read more

Seth the piercer is amazing. I came in just because I was struggling to get my piercing back on. He sat me down right away and got it back on- took 2 minutes! You can tell he is very knowledgeable and trust worthy when it comes to piercings. Will come back here for my next one! read more

Stopped by this week and had a pic taken by Lee who said he'd sketch the tatoo and get back to me to have it done today. I never heard back. Yesterday I called and he asked for my number again and was basically blowing me off. Said he hadn't had time for me and would see if someone else could do it today. He just acted like he didnt give a shit. I said it wasnt urgent and I could wait. He didnt even respond. Just reiterated someone else might be able to do it. I called back again and he hung up on me. WTF? Cant tatoo a simple peacock or what??? I really dont get it!!! read more

No, they do not wear wooden shoes, but so what? I got a nose ring from Seth & a small tattoo from Ricky, and at the very end, I happened to meet Justin. These are very talented, very skilled artists, but essentially, just very nice people. We had great conversation, hot coffee, plenty of laughs, and I was completely satisfied with what I received. The entire time I was made to feel comfortable, always asked if I had questions - before & after - and was told exactly what to do when I went home; if I needed help after leaving, they promised to be accessible, and I have no doubt they would be. Pleasant experience. Highly recommended. Yelp note: I did not discuss, was neither paid nor offered any incentive for this review, so put your AI algorithms in yur ass. BAM. read more

I was recommended to Dutch Touch by a good friend for a daith piercing to help with headaches and motion sickness. As someone who only has the run of the mill ear lobe piercing (that I had done at age 16) the idea of cartilage piercing was somewhat unnerving. But struggling with motion sickness my entire 39 years of life I decided it was time to try something to help. I arrived close to 6pm (which was when the piercer was going home I was told earlier in the day) it was a busier than expected day with kids and such so I was expecting to be asked to come back later. Which would have been fine, except we are about to enter another Covid lockdown and I'm planning on wearing a helmet to dune over New Years (so hoping they let me in!) I was greeted by Seth who had me fill out the paperwork while he prepared the supplies in a private room. Once I had filled everything out he showed myself, my husband and my BFF into the room where there was plenty of room for all of us and room to spare. Seth was very welcoming and even is a duner himself so we had a lot to talk about which really took my mind off the impending metal object about to be shoved into my ear lol. The piercing itself was hardly painful at all! I was more scared that I needed to be and honestly I would go back for the other side if I needed to. Now here's the part where I nearly pass out-so I haven't eaten dinner yet and I sit up and feel kinda woozy, Seth asks me how I'm feeling and asks to see my face so I show him my face and mouth and he asks if I've eaten. Apparently the stress of the idea of piercing has made me release adrenaline and drops my blood sugar significantly, he quickly gets me something to raise my blood sugar and gets a paper towel wet with cool water and has me lay down while he gently dabs the back of my neck and my forehead. He doesn't rush me or anything and talks to me about the desert some more while making sure I'm improving. I sit up again and still don't feel well so he offers me cold water to sip and to lay down again for as long as I need. He was genuinely just kind and patient and such an above and beyond level of care and knowledge about what to do. My piecing was tender for a couple hours but I honestly don't even know it's there. I can lay on the side that it's on if I need to and I'm confident I will be able to wear my helmet in a few weeks as well. So far I have not had a headache or motion sickness (my husband made me turn around in the car lol). Seth was just the best and I will definitely come back to see him if I ever need anything else done. Thank you!! read more

Seth did my piercing. He was very nice, funny, and helped keep me calm through the process. Quick process, would recommend! The shop was as advertised. Big waiting room, and plenty of space for each artist. At least three clients came in while I was there which helped me feel I could trust the work. read more

I love everyone there. I've gotten 7 tattoos from there. They did a great job. I still want to get 2 more tattoos. I just need to the money and schedule an appointment. read more

When I parked outside, I thought it looked a little sketch. Inside was basically no better. But... my piercer was great! The piercing is great. Quick and pretty painless. He made me feel very comfortable. Compared to my last piercing in GA which was very uptight, Dutch was very welcome. And cheap! Leaves room for better tips that way. read more

the series was a really nice process. i went in to get my septum pierced and i was in a out with minutes. i got the honor of getting pierced by Dutch himself and he was really respectful and made me smile throughout the entire process. Dutch also chose the jewelry he thought would fit my face and gave me an option on what i wanted and he was right! the vide was really warm and welcoming! i will be coming back for my piercings in the future! read more

I got a piercing from this place 3 months ago. and had to go somewhere else to get it removed because the piercer tightened it wayyy too tight & anytime I called to get his schedule so I could come in and get it switched out I was told he was on vacation. The piercer who I went to get it removed by told me I would have never been able to get it off by hand since he was having trouble himself taking it off. Never coming back here again. read more

Honestly, i wouldn't recommend this place off the fact I will be back AGAIN (this is now 3) behind a nose piercing that was done by Seth. His vibes are great, but I don't know if it's the piercer or the jewelry they are using. The first ring, kept sinking into my piercing and then the actual gem itself fell off. Like how ghetto and cheap. Now this replacement ring has fallen completely out of my nose and once again the cheap ass gem fell out. This is ridiculous honestly. The time and gas I have wasted coming to get this rectified, I could have paid $20 more and went elsewhere. I came with a friend. Who also had issues with her piercing but instead went elsewhere to get the problems fixed. read more
