Wondeful experience overall and highly reccomended. I have had piercings before so I knew what to expect. The whole set-up was very clean, professional and effortless. I was in and out and Steph did a great job. She is an apprentice there but you would have no idea as she was cool and collected. Got to meet J.D. too and he was awesome as well. I did research on this place beforehand and I am glad I did. I will definitely be coming here for all my future piercing needs! Awesome! read more

This is my preferred place to get my piercings. Marilyn is my favorite person she always has the best ideas for piercing placement. I will admit on multiple occasions I have walked in having no clue on what I wanted to get pierced, I always walked out with some great addition to my body adornment process. I will be a customer as long as my body has the ability to get something pierced. Both done by Marilyn. read more

My piercer was Nicola! I got my septum done in April and I've never been to a better, more clean, reputable piercer. Also I the 10 minutes she pierced me in she gave me the best hair advice I've ever gotten and my curls have seriously never looked better thanks to her. 10/10 recommend. read more

Love this place. They give great recommendations for your jewelry so listen to them!! Painless and professional. Very friendly staff.

I've been here before and these guys always deliver. Service and price are great. Staff is very professional and the location is always clean. I'm a loyal customer. read more

I've personally been a patron of HTC since 2008 but tonight I brought my daughter in. She's 8 and has been wanting to get her ears pierced. We were welcomed and treated so nicely as we checked in and picked jewelry. Nicola was her piercer and did such an excellent job! She was so kind to my daughter and talked her through everything from start to finish. Another lovely piercing job done! We were both taught how to preform aftercare and given a few info sheets as well as assured that if we can think of any questions to call and ask. We both love HTC and Nicola! Thanks again Nicola for creating such a trusting, kind and magical environment! read more

I have been going to HTC for about 5 years now for many piercings. I've had my cartilage, tragus, nostril, septum, belly button and others pierced at this location. I love it here and wouldn't go anywhere else! They are personable and friendly. I've had Nicole and J.D. in the past. I'd let anyone at this location pierce me though. It's very safe and sterile and they really know how to ease my nerves of the initial piercing! They really like to educate you about after care of the piercing as well. I always feel welcomed to call the store with any questions of after care! Thank you HTC of 5 years of satisfaction!! read more

Came here on a Friday to get my daith piercing gem replaced then that Sunday as I was laying down it fell out. Came back on Monday and the ladies were very accommodating and quick. Waived the fee for a jewelry insertion since I had just been there. It feels much more secure this time. Will definitely be back for a piercing and more jewelry. Only giving four stars because it fell out the first time, other than that they're perfect! read more

Got my belly button pierced in September and it was such an easy and comfortable process. I was nervous it was going to hurt but he had the needle in before I even noticed. Just went back for a check up and to get my bar shorter and the desk lady was so nice to me the minute we walked in. The swap of a new bar took less than 2 minutes and was painless. The piercer even reused the top of my old piercing with my new one to cut down the cost. Helped a broke college student out. I even received a 15% off coupon for jewelry from my piercing in September for my new bar so I only paid $46 for my new bar and for it to be switched. Everyone is so friendly here and knows what they're doing. Also they are very sterile with their tools and are constantly wiping surfaces down. Definitely recommend. read more

I have gone back and I have nothing but a great success with the healing of my piercings. Again thank you HTC for being my go to Piercing stop whether its for a new piercing or just to update my jewelry. read more

Very friendly and efficient! made me feel very comfortable despite being nervous as this was my first piercing. Would definitely recommend!

I walked in on a whim to get both sides of my nostrils pierced. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming! My piercer, Nicola, had such a fun, bubbly, contagious energy and made me feel extremely comfortable. Everything was great except they were out of the small black studs I was excited for and I felt extremely rushed. It's unfortunate they are walk- in only but I understand. Thank you Nicola! read more

I have been getting piercings for many years. Upon moving to the Phoenix area I was very interested in a place that I could continue my piercing obsession. Unfortunately HTC Piercing will never be that place. The area around the shop is super sketchy. Which is already a big red flag. While the shop was clean and well lit, the customer service was at an all time low. The woman who was working the counter was incredibly neglectful and all around disinterested. I had questions about the products and after care and she gave me one word answers. Which I find rude and disrespectful. When I go for a piercing I expect to feel comfortable and respected. I felt neither when I entered and when I left promptly. While the quality of the shop and products was top notch. The customer service was below anyone's quality standards. Such a bum out. read more

After a nightmare experience at another shop, I went to HTC having heard their name before, and wow I was so happy I did. Both guys there were so helpful and kind, gave me honest opinions and let me know about my best options to treat my messed up industrial. Shop was so COVID safe and perfectly clean. I will definitely be returning once I'm all healed up for different jewelry and more piercings. 11/10 recommend read more

Sasha was the absolute worst and most fake and rude sales associate I have ever met. She locked the door when we entered the shop and told us we were "not allowed" to open the door to exit the shop. She was incredibly passive aggressive and rude. This shop is appalling and is a disgrace to HTC piercings. Previously HTC has been a reputable company and today made me never want to go to HTC ever again in my life. I touched my OWN EARRING that has been in my ear for 10 years and she interrupted me while I was talking and said "please don't touch your piercings". That was the moment that I knew I needed to leave this pathetic shop. Such a disappointing experience. I will NEVER spend my money at an HTC shop ever again in my life because of Sasha. We watched her turn away multiple customers because she can't mentally handle having more than one customer in the shop at one time. Absolutely unacceptable. read more

I went into today to get my nose pierced. Everyone in the shop went out of their way to be very nice and professional! Great experience. I highly recommend. read more

I can't say enough amazing things about HTC!! I had my nose pierced about a month ago and I feel like I've had it for years!! I previously pierced my nose at a different studio about a year ago and ended up removing it due to uncontrollable bleeding, but this time with HTC was such a dramatically improved experience. The piercing felt as if it was healed the next day. Nicola did a fantastic job at making me feel comfortable and we were laughing the whole time despite her shoving a needle through my nostril! Lol I will absolutely be back! read more

This is a good place to get pierced. The piercers are very professional and know what their doing. They get very busy and it's first come first serve so you will probably have to wait a while. Employees do treat customers like they are clueless and you can tell they get annoyed with "stupid questions". So if you don't want to be talked down to then pretend like you know what your doing. Also everything is WAYYYY overpriced. read more

Came for an ear piercing. Super clean. Amazing work, amazing atmosphere, amazing people!

I got a nose piercing here. J.D was super nice and approachable. He made the whole process quick and as painless as possible! Nicola at the front desk was also very welcoming and informative. I initially chose a bigger sized stud, and after the piercing, I asked if I could swap it for a smaller one. Not only did Nicola actually suggest it in the beginning, but both her and JD were so understanding and swapped it with no complaints! They were super professional, thoroughly informed me of after-care, and were very sanitary and efficient. Loved the service! Would definitely recommend to friends read more

Great shop! Kayla and Dana were nothing but super professional and helpful. I went in today, initially to talk about some ideas I had for ear piercings and get some questions answered. Dana was very patient and polite with my thousand questions. Once I felt comfortable talking with him I decided to go through with it and get my conch done, a piercing I'd been wanting for years. The process was really easy and Dana helped me feel relaxed and comfortable through it. Will definitely keep this location in mind for future piercings! read more

I had my septum done here and it was a great experience. I have huge anxiety problens with needles going straight through my face but the front lady was very nice and my piercer was AMAZING! Along with gorgeous, she helped me through the whole thing and it barely hurt when the time came! It was in the right spot and looks amazing. I was a huge pain in the butt but they worked with me and a dream of mine came true. Thank you guys again! read more

Excellent piercing place! The place is always clean and organized and I'm always welcomed with a friendly hello! Even when things are a little busy everyone is relaxed and cheerful. The piercing that I got was reasonably priced and i was encouraged to come back if any concerns were noted! I did have to return a few times to change out jewelry and was only charged for new jewelry! I can't speak highly enough of this place! read more

Go here! Everyone who works here goes above and beyond for you. I have been pierced three times here and have only had good experiences. I had a friend who got pierced and started blacking out while checking out. They rushed to her side and got her a comfy place to lay down and even sat down with her and held juice to her mouth so she could drink. They were so caring and even made everything look so discrete so no one knew what was happening. They are very well experienced. A good place to go if you are worried you may have issues. I definitely trust them. read more

This place is amazing! The staff is so friendly and everyone there is so knowledgeable and helpful. I've only had great experiences here. I would definitely recommend to anyone! read more

I've gotten a few piercings here over the years and they've always been great about explaining what they're doing, why, and how to clean the piercing. Stephanie did a second nose piercing for me and then a septum for my sister and she killed the game. I'm a huge baby with piercings and she handled my crying and reactions like a professional (and I've had some v nonprofessional reactions to mine) so always happy to get pierced here and always recommending people to come to HTC! read more

This place was beyond amazing! Not only were they so professional but they were so nice and thorough! To top it off my piercing did not hurt at all. I have to say Nichola was absolutely the best and I would recommend anybody to her. Actually I was so impressed with this facility, I would recommend this place to EVERYONE!!! read more

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!! Lovely staff they truly do listen to what you want even if things don't go as planned they always suggest the closest thing. Answered all of my questions in regards to my nose piercing. I 10000% will be recommending this shop to all of my family and friends. Great job on the customer service!! read more

I got my nose piercing done by JD and he was super professional and kind. Thanks JD!!

I just went there for the most boring piercing ever. I needed to get my earlobes re-done. Over the course of 20 years, the giggly girls at Piercing Pagoda have managed to mangle my ears three times. So the left hole regularly closed up, until it was all scarred up, and impossible to get any jewelry into. When I walked into HTC, I felt a little foolish asking the pros to take on such a mundane task. But the guy didn't even bat an eye or look down his nose at me. He said, "sure, we can do that." I filled out a little paperwork, picked out some jewelry, and away we went. The guy explained everything he was doing, and the whole process was rather painless. This was my first piercing at a piercing place, and I quickly realized what a fool I was for not coming in sooner. Sure, it cost. But you definitely get what you pay for. My only fear is, now that I discovered how easy it was, and how many beautiful types of jewelry there are out there (HTC had some really lovely organic pieces!), I might want more. read more

JD is professional, thorough and gives his honest opinion. I felt comfortable and at ease. He talked me through what the expect. I'd highly recommend! read more

Gee, I guess Our experience is a weeeee bit different than all these others! Amazing that customer service didn't happen for us over a RETAIL $13 dollar item so bad service over a probable $3 wholesale ring. NOT GOOD. Really not good! I was here a couple weeks ago with my friend Joan and her daughter Sarah. We dropped in on a whim, as we were in the neighborhood and Sarah wanted to see if there might be a hoop there she liked for her nostril piercing. Steph and J.D. were working that day. Steph was the primary person that waited on Joan and Sarah. Steph brought out a silver hoop, saying something like, "This should work." Sarah liked the looks of it, and Steph asked Sarah if she would like her to install it. Sarah said yes, and Steph said she needed to see her ID, because Sarah is a minor. Since we had no original plan to shop for a nose ring when we launched out that day, Sarah did not bring her ID. Steph said Sarah could likely install it fine at home on her own, and to come back if she had any trouble. Steph never took a look at Sarah's piercing or asked the size of her gauge. Joan told Steph twice that Sarah did not get her nose pierced here, but somewhere else. As it turns out, because Steph did not look at Sarah's nose or ask the size of her piercing, Steph chose a hoop with a gauge too small for Sarah's nose. So when Sarah got home and tried to put the ring it, it made her nose bleed. Joan immediately called HTC, and J.D. answered the phone and the conversation went like this: Joan - "Hi J.D., my daughter and I were just there buying a nose ring. We came home to put it in and the gauge is too large and made Sarah's nose bleed. It must be the wrong size, and I need to return it." J.D. - "Oh, I'm sorry. We can't take returns, but I can give you store credit. Isn't her piercing an 18? Joan - "No, it's a 20." J.D. - "We only do 18's on nostrils here." Joan - "I told you guys twice that we didn't get her nose pierced at HTC. We got it pierced at Halo. I had no idea that different places did different size standard piercings for nostrils. And no one at your store last night asked Sarah about the size of her piercing after we told you that we got her nose pierced somewhere else." J.D. - "I'm very sorry about that. Like I said, we can't take returns, but I can give you store credit. Joan - "That's fine. See you tomorrow." When Joan went to exchange the nose ring the following day, neither Steph nor J.D. were working. A dreadful person named Richard was there. Richard told Joan that J.D. had no business saying that HTC would give her store credit, because once a piece of jewelry leaves the store, HTC will not take it back as a return or even for store credit. Richard then asked if Steph examined Sarah nose or asked about her gauge size. Joan explained the whole story about how none of that occurred despite the fact that Joan told the staff twice that Sarah did not get her nose pierced at HTC. Richard suggested, "Why don't you come back again when Steph and J.D. are working, and maybe one of them will give you the money out of their own pocket because this was their mistake and there's no way HTC can reimburse you." Joan could not believe her ears, and was she not about to make a THIRD trip back to the store for what would likely be another futile, frustrating encounter! So, Joan and Sarah were out the money for a worthless piece of jewelry. This is about one of the worst customer service stories I've ever witnessed. The story does have somewhat of a happy ending, in that Joan got her money back through her credit card company when she called and told them the story. They couldn't believe their ears either and refunded her immediately. Moral of the story: Businesses, is a really unhappy, connected customer really worth bad press over a $13 retail order? read more

I knew what I was doing the day I turned 18. The cigarettes, voting privileges, and tattoos could wait--first things first, I was getting pierced. HTC was the only option for me because I was impressed by both their informative website and 3-for-free option for newly legal adults. The staff is very professional; they take their craft to a personal level with their commitment to each piercing they perform. The facility itself is very clean, and the sanitary practices they employ are fantastic. All three of my piercings-nose, tragus, and belly button-healed well. The jewelry is very high quality as well. Fast forward four years, I have finally quit the job that requires my image to remain "wholesome" and "natural." I get to put my piercings back in: well, minus the nose which is a little too immature for me now. And HTC is, once again, the only choice for me! The shop is as clean as ever, and their new selection of jewelry makes me want to go nuts with the needles or at least stone gauges. The piercers helped me choose a new stud for my ear, and they even put it in for me! Sure sure, everything is a little bit on the expensive side, but you really get what you pay for! I HIGHLY recommend HTC to put any extra holes in your body! read more

Very friendly and super professional! Loved my experience. Definitely coming back. JD did an amazing job. Will be referring to all my friends and family. Thank you guys! read more

I've been pretty loyal to this HTC since I was 16. They've done over 12 piercings on my and I've purchased quite a few pairs of plugs from them over the years. Tonight I went in and asked them to size a plug for me so I could purchase another set of the same size. After 15 minutes of trying to figure out the size they told me the plugs I had were a little over an inch. I'm not sure how that happened because I told them I suspected they were 7/8th (I was previously 3/4). Another employee who had worked in the office helped with the decision that hey we're 1". Every time I had brought up the 7/8", they brushed it off. So, with their reassurance that the ones I had, I hesitantly bought 1" silicone eyelets. Well, I got to my car and tried one in... And it wasn't even able to fit. Obviously too big for my ears. So I went inside, explained that I knew there was a no return/refund policy and that I wanted to see if there was something else to be done. The one at the counter said "oh yeah. Like. Especially coz you put them in your ear" no ****, how the **** else was I to find out they didn't fit? The other idiot said "I only work in the office" and bolted asap. She had previously said, in regard to the wrong size being ordered, "yeah. You know how you avoid that? Come here" obviously not, stupid, I ended up with another pair of incorrectly sized plugs. I said, yeah, can I get like a coupon or something?! So, I ended up with a 15% off coupon for jewelry because the associates are incompetent and can't do basic math.... Pro tip, I'm not going to be using that coupon. Also, HTC, if someone can't find the size of an earring.... Why the hell do you have them working your books. 0/5 would not recommend. The worst. Not coming back. Awful. You're terrible. Sucks to suck. read more

HTC is fantastic! i had my belly-button piercing re-done there years and years and years ago at the Tempe location and was super-impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and cleanliness. Recently i decided it was time to re-pierce my ears. Somewhere along the way i got lazy and the holes have been closed for at least 5 years. Ever since my 1st experience with HTC i knew that i would never ever ever let a piercing gun anywhere near my ears ever again. But now that i live in Glendale i REALLY didn't want to drive all the way to tempe just to get my ears done. And then i discovered there was a shop in Phoenix. i literally turned my car around and went straight there. When i walked in they were friendly and helpful (as always). They asked all the right questions to make sure everything was exactly what i wanted. Sure, it's going to cost more than a lot of places, but the quality and the service is WELL worth it. "You get what you pay for" isn't always true, but in this case, it is. read more

Overdue, but at least not too late on review!! I have come here four times now for various piercings, all above waist,haha! Anyways, I can`t recommend a better place than HTC! Very experienced staff. Very clean and sterile environment(and I work in hospital!) They will take care of anything. Felt very comfortable there. Have had Kat and Dana both do my piercings, ears-upper cartilage and tragus, and nasal. All I can say Thank you, Thank you!! read more

The last time I had something pierced was my belly button, and that was maybe seventeen years ago. Well dang it, now I feel old. Anyway, that was a long time ago, and far away in California, but I still remember being scared to death and the piercer mocked my fear. The moment I walked in the door Dana and Olivia smiled and said hello. I was instantly and completely at ease. Dana explained what he was going to do and how I needed to care for my piercing at home. He did a great job and made sure I was comfortable. I'm 99.999999999999999% sure I have everything pierced that I want pierced, but if I change my mind I'm coming back to see Dana! read more

Nicole (piercer) and Steph (front desk) are amazing!!! I initially came in to get a naval piercing. When Nicole studied the anatomy of my belly button, she informed me that if I were to get a naval piercing, it is most likely not going to heal. She was super informative as to why getting a naval piercing would be unsuccessful for my belly button shape. She even drew a visual for me! I understood right away because I appreciated her advice and knowledge for the healing process. I appreciate honesty and professionalism so much and these girls displayed both. I ended up getting a helix piercing and she made me feel very comfortable and my first piercing experience was awesome because of Nicole :) I appreciate her and this studio! Will def be coming back here only for more piercings! read more
