    piercing

    i went there to get an industrial and my second lobe piercings done around a month ago.. my loves have healed perfectly fine but my industrial on the other hand not so much. i think the lady that was doing it was new or something but 1- they didn't check to see if i had the right anatomy until i asked them to check, no walk through of the process and they didn't tell me how to actually clean it so make sure you have done ur research. the prices are very good but for $15 more you could go to a piercer that you can trust. my industrial is super inflamed even though i have been cleaning it and not sleeping on it. also the ball fell out around 2 weeks after. i dont think they used titanium bc my bar is tarnishing a bit... if you go here please be cautious.

    Well.. The prices are unbeatable. But definitely not recommended if you're new to piercings. I came in to get a snake eyes piercing two weeks ago and he insisted on not doing it until he got more practice, two weeks later I come in ready to get my piercing , no reassurance but just cold gestures and attitude the entire process. He told me to clean my mouth and everything seemed sterile, but you can sense the attitude and no walk-through of any procedure. Yet, gets mad when I'm not sure what to do with my mouth & gets angry with me. Everyone else in the parlor are friendly and reassuring , just the piercer himself should learn about manners. Also , this was my second piercing and definitely worth going because of the price but don't expect any nice experience

    No irritation or infection

    I have an update on the double tragus piercing I got for $30. He basically put in nose ring hooks in my ear so they were constantly catching on one another. I did some research and my ear was supposed to have to have to straight bars in it. I went to get them changed and the woman told me THEY WOULD NEVER HEAL and my ear would start to grow over the gem ends which was already happening. So that's something. She ended up changing the bottom to a longer bar with a ball end and had to leave the top out because my ear was too swollen to fit it in. One less piercing and a ball end because I had the wrong jewelry. Make sure you get the right jewelry put in if you want it

    Helix Piercing

    I could not have been more pleased with my piercings at Hectors. The business is clean, offers privacy, follows safety protocols a.nd is very keen on after care. Hector was always available to answer my questions about piercings. He gave guidance and honest feedback each time I called or texted. Bori and Freddy, the piercers, were courteous and professional and listened to my ideas. Bori did my ear piercings and was spot on with the placement and recommendations. Came for a Helix piercing but felt comfortable enough with Bori's recommendations to do the Tragus as well. Loved the piercings so much I came back the next day for a nose piercing which was done by Freddy. He recommended an even better placement for the piercing than I had in mind. Sure you can go to high end places downtown and spend way too much for piercings and get upsold on their jewelry. However, Hector's is the real deal and they get the job well done. Kumma

    Vertical Labret, bridge piercing

    I got my bridge piercing, vertical labret, and tongue piercing here. My bridge piercing was swollen for quite a bit but it did get better. The tongue piercing is amazing as well.

    Great place given the location. Hector is honest and fair with his piercings

    Hector is the best. He's friendly and his prices are unbeatable. He gives the best advice on if you should get the piercing or not. He stopped me from getting a smiley until my previous piercing healed. His area is clean and sanitary. Always uses new tools. Given the location, this place is great. If you want a tattoo Luca is great with words and spider is great with graphics.

    I been going to hectors for about 4 years now & every time i go it's a great experience. They are so nice and always fast with everything! Clean & organized as well. I love coming here & will continue to come here to get my piercings

    9 months w piercing

    I got my nose pierced here at around December 2018 and my nose piercing consistently gets infected I was later told that their jewelry is fake which it is why I kept getting keloid.

It's a permanent thing on your body so I would pay more ensure that it's done correctly anyway! The service here was amazing and everyone is incredibly knowledgeable and excited to work with you! I made an appointment here to get my navel re-pierced and chose this place due to their high ratings and reviews on Google. I can say with confidence that the accolades are well deserved! I had the pleasure of working with George to do my piercing. Upon walking into my appointment I was greeted by another employee who checked my ID and walked me through the process while George was getting ready for me. He was so friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and welcoming! He warned ahead of time that navel is an anatomy- based piercing so there's a chance I won't be able to get it done after my consultation, in addition to aftercare and resources so that I'm well-armed with everything I need to know to take care of my new piercing. In the last I've had my navel done unprofessionally, and then again professionally about a few years ago so I was hesitant about the scarring. George did my consult and assured me that it was safe for me to get it done again. He walked me through the process and talked through exactly what he was doing for prepping and piercing so I didn't get anxiety in anticipation. My navel looks beautiful and it's healing so nicely!! I felt safe, assured that I was getting it done so professionally, and I love how all the info is displayed on the website. All piercers have IGs if you have follow up questions and they respond so fast! Highly recommend!!

    I got my forward helix and conch pierced with Nine Moons last month in October…read more I came in 15 minutes early and was greeted by Naomi. She really calmed my nerves and helped me pick out and style a few pieces and also picked similar options with different price ranges. I really enjoyed my experience with Naomi because was so welcoming, professional, and really took the time to go over options. After picking the jewelry, Starr was ready for me. The room is very clean and private- and the bed you lay down on is large and comfy :). She mapped out a few locations for the forward helix and conch based on the placement and anatomy and she took pictures on her phone since I had a hard time seeing it in the mirror. If Naomi didn't calm me down already, Starr is really the most gentle and friendly piercer I've met. Incredibly patient. And I would like to believe that her swift skills in piercing made the experience pain-free. I also did my downsizing with Starr and it was a breeze. All in all, I wish I got all my piercings done at Nine Moon- this place is a gem. Their collection is exquisite and if I plan on getting more piercings, I will revisit this studio and recommend it to others. Thank you Starr and Naomi.

I came here for some help on an irritated piercing and was pretty nervous about not being able to do much about it after looking through the price ranges very briefly. You make a reservation and if you're tardy by some time they charge you their deposit fee $40+ dollars. Luckily, we came in early and were greeted very warmly by the staff here and after explaining the situation, were asked to wait. I loved the atmosphere of the shop: spotless, classy, sophisticated, and with a large selection of high-end jewelry for you to ooh, ahh, and oggle as you please. Shortly after, I then picked out some jewelry, and then was promptly taken to the back by a staff member. They tried finagling the hole for some time to save my 8 year old piercing, all while trying to ease my anxiety and talk me through the pain of the irritated piercing. After no avail, we decided to give up and let the piercing retire so the spot can heal again. With all that said and done, I was not charged because they understood the trauma of retiring and letting go of an irritated piercing. I was recommended to return 2 months after if I wanted to get it redone again. If I do decide to reinvigorate the spot I'll definitely be back. They are so bubbly and relatable here that I know I'll be well taken care of. Amazing place for new holes if you have a pretty penny and a hankering for change in your near future.

I've trusted her with over FIVE of my piercings... nose and 4 placements on my ears as a curation from Deja herself. and at this point, I wouldn't even consider going to anyone else. Her precision is unmatched, her bedside manner is calming (which matters when you're nervous!), and her attention to hygiene and placement is exactly what you want when you're putting permanent trust in someone's hands. Every appointment feels intentional she takes the time to explain placement, anatomy, healing expectations, and aftercare so thoroughly that you leave feeling confident, not confused. And let's talk about the results... every single piercing she's done for me healed beautifully and looks perfectly balanced with my features. That kind of eye for detail is rare. Beyond her technical skill, her energy is what keeps clients loyal. She's warm, professional, and genuinely cares about how your piercing fits you, not just what's trendy. That level of personalization is why her work stands out and why I'll always go back. If you're even thinking about getting pierced, stop searching. Book with Deja. Period. You won't just get a piercing...you'll get an expert experience, flawless placement, and a piercer you'll want to keep for life. Curated ears are a vibe. Nobody else will have what you have in a world where everybody gets their piercings done.
