The prices for a piercing or multiple are very fair, but the jewelry selection could be a lot better and the prices are a bit much for what is offered.

Ear piercings are among the oldest, with evidence found on mummified remains. While they are often seen as a form of self-expression, they have also served various purposes throughout history, including ritualistic, cultural, and even symbolic roles. I came here on May 17th to get a hidden helix piercing to match my lil sis on the OCA team, Wendi K. (Go add her! She's Seattle's sweetheart). That and I've been seeing them on Instagram and they look cool. Megan was my piercer and everything went well. I chose a fun dangly 14k gold piece for my piercing as I know from a previous cartilage piercing that I need a more hypoallergenic metal. And while my ear anatomy doesn't quite make the piercing fully hidden, I'm happy with it. I'm glad to have had the consultation with Megan prior so I knew what I was getting myself into. Do yourself a favor and get pierced by Megan (walk-ins are allowed for piercings). Buy some saline solution here, tip generously, and walk away being a more decorated and shiny version of yourself.

I had the BEST experience at Next Level Tattoo in Tempe. From the moment I walked in, the shop was…read moreincredibly clean, professional, and welcoming. You can immediately tell they care about their craft and their clients. Vania was so kind and warm -- she made me feel comfortable right away, which meant a lot because I was honestly a little overwhelmed (in the best way). The energy in the studio is just amazing. The amazing Manuel Flores did my two tragus piercings with the utmost care and precision. He explained everything clearly, made sure the placement was perfect, and was so gentle and professional throughout the entire process. Chancla did my tattoo and gave the BEST advice and recommendations on placement. I trusted their guidance completely, and I'm so glad I did -- it came out even better than I imagined. This was truly the best experience I've ever had getting tattoos and piercings. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

This spot came highly recommended from friends but mostly my trusted niece. She came here to get her eyebrow piercing and raved about their services. With several locations, we preferred the Tempe location. Super easy to schedule an appointment online and quick forms to complete before your appointment. I opted to get my nose pierced and potentially two more ear piercings. The selection of jewelry varies from affordable to really high end solid gold. The receptionist was so knowledgeable and wonderful at making suggestions for my choices. Love her style and she was spot on in matching my vibe. I loved being able to mix my metals of gold, silver and rose gold. For me, I wanted higher quality and fashionable pieces so my total was over $700 with the piercings and jewelry. They also had MDW sale discount of 20% but that eventually went as my tip to my piercer Josh. He is super cool and very thorough. Made me feel comfortable and laughing. My niece had Aubrilynn and loved her. As for the piercing, it is not painful at all. If you can take waxing or plucking, it's easy peasy! There is a little soreness on my left ear but it went away after treating myself to Taiwanese pancakes and jelly tea. You should purchase the saline solution to keep your piercings clean. Accessories are the exclamation point to your outfit. So if you're up for it, get pierced here with any of their incredible staff. To me, overdressed is a myth invented by those who have never been fabulous.

We arrived at 10:02am and was asked to go shopping for ten minutes as they hadn't set up yet. I should have listened to my gut and not gone back. We went back and 2 out of the four were incorrectly pierced on a downward angle and right/downward angle on both of her left side. Our daughter is too afraid to remove the helix piercing to have it redone but has removed the lobe piercing so it can heal to be redone correctly in a month. No manager reached out on that day or the day after Thanksgiving until I called to complain. Apparently protocol is to have an available manager reach out the same day. Sage had not told anyone until after I called. This is a very unprofessional outfit. Make sure you ask how long the "piercer" has pierced ears and ask if any issues with anyone prior. Sage told us after the fact she had done the same thing before on thtee other occasion's all on the left side. Our fault for not asking prior. It's definitely worth the drive to go to Chandler Mall, apparently there are two locations there. It's where we previously went where we had no issues. Unfortunately we live further away from that location. Learning curve for us is to do due diligence in future.

I received serval emails and texts to confirm the appointment, including one the morning of. I showed up to my appointment only to be told the piercer would not be in for another hour and a half. She casually shrugged off the appointment saying I could wait or come back another time but the piercer isn't usually in this early (12pm). Why make appointments for when they don't have a piercer?! She said I could come any time though because "they take walk-ins". But do they? Because they certainly wouldn't have been able to accommodate any walks in for the next hour and a half till their piercer came in. When I expressed my displeasure at them not showing up for an appointment she made it seem like it was a common issue. She seemed to not care in the slightest to have wasted my time. Before leaving I went to look at their jewelry to double check they had the ones online I found. They did, but the price changed from $50 online to $80 in stores. The employees response was "yeah, our website is old and needs to be updated." That was the nail in the coffin of potentially coming back. They won't have my service, not that I think they care at all. I will also strongly urge everyone I know to not even contemplate going there. Very poor business and lack or service. Waste of time.
