Today I took my daughter and niece to get a piercing. I have use them at least 3 other times and never had an issue. However today while we were there Stevie was EXTREMELY rude and racist. So if you are Mexican have caution with her. On the positive side we got Laayn and she was amazing and made us feel super comfortable and did an amazing job. read more

I got my back dermals and my belly button pierced here. The price was super affordable and the piercing was done perfectly. I would recommend this place, however the vibe was a bit off. I went for my birthday and I guess it was just early in the morning and they were a bit down. They tried talking me out of it which was weird, maybe they thought I was underage. I would go again for professionalism but not for the vibe. read more

Modern Mods - Belly button piercing - Piercing Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I needed to buy a new earring for my tragus piercing, and also needed help putting it in since the earrings are so small. I'd been to a few piercing shops around the valley, and had called some too, but no one had what I wanted. Eventually someone recommended this place and I'm glad they did since their selection of earrings was great. Modern Mods offers lots of piercing services and sells numerous jewelry. There is also a location in Chandler. I came on a Saturday afternoon. It was busy. There was a line to get to the counter to request the service you needed, but it moved fast. When it was my turn, the woman helped me pick out an earring and told me it would be another 10-15 minute wait for someone to help me with it. They would text me when it was my turn. I probably only waited 10 minutes. There was a waiting area with couches. There were special chairs to sit in for the service. The woman who helped me was very nice and the whole process of switching out the jewelry took 2 minutes. It was $40 for the earring and $10 to put in. While I'd rather not spent that much, I do think the quality and service was great. And it's nice to have an actual earring in again, since I'd only had a post in my ear for months. I would definitely come back here for all of my piercing needs. read more

This store took what was supposed to be a positive experience and absolutely ruined it. I brought my 4 year old in here to get her ears pierced!! It was explained to me before her ears were pierced that the piercing for a child under five was $60, and that upgraded earrings could be purchased for an additional fee. There was one rack of earrings that was included in the $60, a rack of titanium pairs made the lobe piercings $100, and a rack of 14k gold sets that would make the lobe piercings $200. Turns out, the upgrades don't include the piercing. So the titanium upgraded set would've made my total $160, and the gold set made my total $260. Not a huge deal, but would've been nice to have known that upfront. Never, ever was $260 stated by any staff member. I'm fairly confident that this issue happens often, and that they're not clearly explaining it because before she put the earrings in my daughter, she even explained to me that the upgraded price would be $100 per ear. During checkout, the girl was so argumentative about the upgrade price, even though I was completely willing to pay for it that she didn't even give me any of the aftercare instructions for my daughter's ears.. She even argued with me about it AFTER payment had been made cutting me off and trying to explain why she was right. I'm not positive at this point why she didn't offer to go get a manager or supervisor, because that would've been the correct thing to do. She was extremely frustrated and projecting on both myself and my husband after we had already paid about the pricing. We left mid argument because we were so uncomfortable AND left a tip despite her absolute horrible customer service. One of the oddest things about this place is the way that they respond to reviews. Go look at them. Anything negative is instantly blamed on the customer, they take O accountability. They instantly blame the customer and try and make it seem like absolutely nothing that they did was incorrect or confusing. It's also worth mentioning, this store prides themselves on offering a 10% military discount, buttttt when we got to the front counter, it was only THEN explained that that 10% only comes off the "service charge". So instead of $26 off my daughter's ears, it was $6.. I highly suggest you find a different location for all piercings. Not only was the customer service, greatly lacking, but our piercer was rude, and upon leaving we noticed a pretty nasty gnat infestation.. wonder if the health department has been out here lately? read more

Ok hear me out, I know I sound like a cry baby but the piercing was not cheap. I did a walk in with 2 other friends and got a surface tragus piercing for 110$ or so. 6 months later the piercing was getting "rejected by my body". I called before walk in consultation. I explained the situation. Don't want my money back but could I possibly get it RE pierced. She said she sees that happening all the time. Come on and we'll check it out. Went in. Got the consult after 30 min. She told me oh well basically that piercing doesn't stay permanently. It'll last a couple weeks. Now why would I pay 110$ for a piercing that won't stay on my body. Why even do that service. Now I'm out 110$, no piercings and wasted gas.... I'm just upset the first girl that pierced me never mentioned this to me :( very sad about it really because it was cu read more

Modern Mods - Piercing Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I stopped by Modern Mods the day before having wrist surgery as I was required to remove all piercings prior to the operation. I have some ear piercings that are tricky to remove by myself, so I called upon the pros to help. I was in and out in half an hour and the piercer who assisted me even bagged up my jewelry to keep it all in one place when it was time to put it back in. A few days after my surgery, I was feeling well enough to venture out of the house and have my ear jewelry put back. I returned to Modern Mods and was treated just as wonderfully. The piercer cleaned my jewelry prior to placing it back in my ears. Also, she was very mindful of my discomfort as the piercings were a bit tender after being out for a few days. This was a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to return for any future piercing needs. read more

Getting pierced is like getting tattooed. Either the piercing person is good and I mean good or not worth the time of day. My grandson had his ears pierced about 3 months ago and decided that grandpa needed to match him. Little did he know grandpa had 3 holes in each ear up to over an inch, the about 5/8" and 3/4" for many years plus the other 5 or 6 he still had. A couple of the piercers had conversations with me to see what I wanted. Been 12+ years since any jewelry had been in my loobs. Kaydence either drew the short straw or decided my patent was an old guy, and said she'd deal with me. Turns out with all this new jewelry that has come out she was able to slide a 12 gauge in the bottom hole with no issues. Now mind you they will pull out without much effort as the large holes have not closed up. We talked and decided to give it a try anyway as it's my 72 bday on the 23rd and I wanted to match my grandson. I leave out of state and might swing by on my way home to explore a couple other possibilities. But if you are looking for your 1st piercing or your 10th, I can highly recommend Modern Mods in the Arrowhead Mall. I can say that watching all the piercers, they are professional, knowledgeable, they want you happy as does the rest of the staff. When I started getting pierced and tattooed I was all of 16. I've also done a lot of piercings back in the day and taken care of my daughter's friends who got infections because they failed to follow simple instructions. We are a family of pierced and fully tattooed individuals. So go see the people at Modern Mods and get pierced. You will be pleased that you did. Thank you all for your help, you are the best. Also their shop is very clean and each station is cleaned before the next person is brought in. I'd rate this shop as higher quality. read more

So many great things about this place. I would allow any of these piercers to do ear piercings for my kids. They have helped us multiple times. Tysha always does an amazing job and we will always keep coming back for more. Stevie, was friendly and helpful upon entering. Nicole at their chandler location was so sweet doing a jewelry change for us. And Heather is just an angel all around obviously. Her commitment to running a flawless business is commendable and she definitely goes above and beyond for her team and clients. read more

My sister had the best experience here. She needed her chest dermal removed as it was rejecting. She was soooo scared and nervous. Marquel was the one who took it out and he was so kind. He walked her through the whole procedure and was very patient. read more

I got my third row and my helix pierced. I will say the lady's there were very nice and patient. Though I didn't appreciate that I wasn't informed on the kind of jewelry I was getting. I had thought I was getting a screw in stud like my helix is, but apparently I got a like click into place stud. Not even a week later it falls out and I had to pay a whole WHOPPING like $35 for ONE *singular* stud to replace it. Not a set... just one earring It's been a few months now and I just took them out for the first time and the original stud that I still had didn't even click in properly?? like the one I had to buy, so I'm kinda feeling like I got kind of crappy earrings the first time around There should really be some kind of warranty for the healing period for the jewelry. I do recommend coming here of course! Just be prepared for the cost! read more

My sister, niece, and I came here to get some ear piercings. It was a busy Saturday but we only had to wait 20ish minutes for our appointments. There was so much gorgeous jewelry to choose from all at varying price points. Tina did all our piercings and was very kind and professional. She did a really great job with my niece who was pretty nervous. It has now been 2 weeks since we got our piercings and everything is healing perfectly! Can't wait to come back for more! read more

We came here to get our 2 year old and 6 year olds ears pierced. Our piercer was Rae and she was SO good with both girls. She was very calming, and talked them through what she was going to do before she did and made it a very positive experience for them (despite the inevitable crying). They have big stuffies there that the kids can hold, candy afterwards and even a certificate. The pricing was straightforward and the lady at the jewelry counter was very kind and thorough as well so we knew how much to expect at the time of check out. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking to get any piercings especially for little girls getting their ears pierced for the first time! read more

My first piercing as an adult! I've had my ears pierced since I was a baby, and I've been wanting to get my nose pierced. I stopped by here around noon on a Wednesday and there were a few people there. I was directed to the back to check in and fill out the consent form. They use a waitlist feature and I was told it would be 45 minutes since 4 people were ahead of me. I got a text notifying my turn and came back from walking around the mall. Stevie called me back a few minutes after I arrived and got me prepared. It literally took seconds to pierce my nose and I definitely felt it; one tear emerged in my left eye. I paid and got aftercare information and I was on my way. Stevie was great running the place and loved her energy and efficient work. Prices seemed fair, I don't know prices at other shops so I really appreciate how transparent they are here! FYI it was $45 for the piercing and $15 for the stud, and then adding tip. I love my new piercing! read more

Everyone at Modern Mods is a delight and the owners really put a lot of thought into their business and how they run it from their service, who they hire, and their pricing. Whether you're going in for a piercing, to buy something, or just walking by you can tell they all enjoy being there. I love that they take the science of piercing to educate their customers and explain the safety of using a needle vs a gun for ear piercings. Everyone I have referred said that was a highlight because they would have never know a piercing gun could actually cause damage. Bobby and Heather have really brought something special to Arrowhead and it makes me happy to see so many people from friends and family go there :) read more

Modern mods is located in arrowhead mall on the 1st floor next to dillards! I came here on a Sunday and they accepted walk ins! (Note you probably want to come in an hour before they close as they can get busy and can have up to 30 minute wait!) They have a great selection of piercings to choose from of all different kinds! The shops interior was very clean and sanitary. They have a waiting area inside but also just outside the shop there are also an extra seating area. They send u a text when ur up next so feel free to wander, not too far though lol! Piercing service is a $50 price and additional for the jewelry you want. They also offer aftercare which I ended up purchasing. Here is my review on my piercings: Note everyone's pain tolerance is different so this may be different from your experience! Helix: 5-6/10 Definitely hurt a lot more than the upper lobe and was definitely more sore but honestly not as terrible as I thought it was going to be! Madi was my piercer and she did a wonderful job and was really informative on everything she was doing. Upper lobes: 3/10 Hurt wayyyy less than the helix and did not feel sore at all after. Just a slight pinch when pierced but definitely not terrible! Overall experience: Loved my visit here and definitely found my new favorite piercing shop in Glendale! Definitely check this place out if you're looking for a piercing shop, you won't regret it! read more

Modern Mods - Septum piercing - Piercing Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Excellent location! We parked in the mall parking lot. There was plenty of parking. As you enter the mall it's close to the entrance. The front desk cashiers were friendly and polite and helpful with answers to our questions and quickly got us to the next station to choose a piercing and the type of rings. The next rep walked us through the various processes and types of rings. She told us a bit about the company and the folks that work there. Everyone was so friendly and hospitable. I wanted to repierce a joke and they told me I wouldn't have to they would prove the hike because there was probably scar tissue. That was exactly what had happened. They cleaned out the scar tissue and I was good as new. If I'm back in the area I will definitely come there for another piercing. read more

My daughter has been begging for a nose piercing forever and this weekend we finally agreed. She was so ecstatic and after searching around we decided on Modern Mods. East to find right next to Dillards on the lower level. When we arrived they were very busy. It was the weekend so we did anticipate a wait. There is a counter right when you walk on and a click and chairs to sit and wait if there's room. We stood for quite a while trying to figure out if we were in the right spot to check in etc. After several minutes a woman came up and asked what we were wanting done and directed us to a long near the jewelry counters. Once we were helped we signed a waiver, I showed my ID since she is a minor and they went over pricing, jewelry and placement. From start to finish it was a great experience. The location was clean, bright and fun. Kiarra (the piercer) made my daughter feel comfortable and at ease. After she was done we went over how to clean and take care of and what to expect. Pricing was fair with the jewelry we picked etc. around $100 with tip. read more

Finally decided to get my piercings after over a decade of wanting to get a bunch of piercings. I decided to get new lobe piercings and a helix/flat. Everyone working there was so friendly and helpful, from picking out jewelry to whether I should get a flat or helix first. We went with helix as the healing time was supposed to be faster. My piercer showed me where she was going to pierce and was quick and efficient. She made the experience very comfortable since I was a little nervous. It's been just over 2 months and my piercings look good. I've just gone back to down size my helix and the piercer noticed my left lobe was showing some signs of infection/irritation. She drained it for me and showed me how to better clean my piercings. I will definitely come back to get more piercings done. read more

Modern Mods - Purple studs were the choice - Piercing Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

So I have never been here before, my cousin recommended it to me. Upon entering there is a checkout desk, but to be pierced keep going further towards the back on the right hand side. That is where you sign a waiver form, and pick your jewelry. My son is autistic and also has epilepsy so I expressed my concerns and was assured they would take it all into consideration. Tysha was his piercer, she was very friendly and made sure that my son was comfortable and explained everything to him before hand. He felt at ease which made me feel at ease. He pierced both of his ears and she was great with him. He is so happy about having his piercings as he's been wanting a tattoo but was advised he can't by his Drs so for him this was a huge deal. It's very clean in here as well, and they are very sanitary as well. I'd definitely come back if I was looking to get a piercing. read more

It was great Heather pierced my nipples and she did a great job I had them many years ago and had taken them out because of a major operation I had so, I guess overtime I just miss having them so she did a great job and it feels good to have them again and she's very patient which is hard to find out these days so that's a great vibe that I got from her. read more

Was I a young 2000s kid who worked at ghetto center and arrowhead? Yes yes I was, so when I come back to Az i need to always visit the nostalgic places. Sadly metro center is no longer with us. Me and my sister went into arrowhead to prepare for her bday bash at emo night. We needed bling and hot topic recommended Modern Mods since we were looking for more higher quality jewelry. We came pretty early and there wasn't a wait. Me and my sister decided to pierce out Tragus both sides and picked out some sweet gems. Stevie was our piercer and she was amazing. The whole crew is amazing. All women and everyone was so fucking nice. Even the other customers were so nice. I highly recommend going here and bringing your loved ones here for any needle gem needs. If they had this when I was a kid working at the mall I'd probably be pinned up all over ^___^ We were walk-ins but i believe they do take appointments. read more

I went in this week to get my nips pierced and when the girl took me into the back to pierce me she was shaking and she was twisting the piercing in which made it hurt 10x more and when she put the bar in she used a small bar so it fell out which she said wouldn't happen because she bent the bar so it would stay. When i went back to get the piercing redone the new piercer showed me the size difference and which bar i should have had in the beginning which was astronomically bigger. However the bar still ended up falling out which is crazy considering i paid $75 extra for the bar and $200 in total. I have had all of my piercings done here and i have never had this bad of an experience and i am never going to come back if i can help it. read more

I am pretty new to piercings and have recently had a double helix, my thirds, a bellybutton and an eyebrow piercing at this location within the past few months. I've had my other 2 lobes pierced with a gun at other locations prior to this, and had a very obviously bad healing experiences lol. I've had all different piercers each time and they were all super sweet and I have never had an issue with infection etc. They are quick, do a good job, and are so friendly and sweet. The environment is clean and relaxing and I've even had positive experiences with other customers. I am not one to make reviews often but omg, if you want piercings go here or to one of their other locations! read more

I was looking for a tattoo shop to get my son's ears pierced and my husband stumbled upon this place in the mall.

I went with a friend who made our reservation. The CS is quite friendly and the girls are accommodating. The pricing however was extreme. I paid $260 the first piercing and decided to get a different earring the second time. The earrings are so tiny and even though 14 carat the cost is way over the top. I was told the little tiny stones were diamonds so I went with it (being naive and never did this before) I was willing to pay the price. Total $650 later (and that was with 10% off) as I was paying was told "Oops those aren't diamonds, they're Swarski crystals. $320 for those. They're about the size of a pin head and 3 of them. What am I gonna do?! Have them pull it out and start over?! I just sucked it up. When checking out they have a "tip" category. Thus the reason for over the top friendliness. Takes 15 seconds to put the earring in. I'm not paying $60-150 tip!!! Needless to say I woke up! Not going back because shortly after that my friend and I both found an extremely reasonable place to go and they offer 14k pure gold at nowhere near that price and since I didn't get real diamonds I'll definitely save on future styles. My only advice is to do your homework and check out other places before paying more for less. read more

Brought my daughter in to this location on a Sunday afternoon. Boy was it busy! They quoted me an hour and a half wait, with a two year old that can be tricky, but we walked around the mall and waited for our text to say we were next. Sure enough the wait was spot on. We came back and waited for our name to be called. Stevie was our piercer and was very professional. She made sure I was happy with the placement of where the earrings would be. Aftercare was explained and I was very happy with the results. Everyone at this location was very nice and helpful. You do pay a premium for this quality of work but when a child is involved I think it's a wise investment to come here over a mall kiosk with a piercing gun. read more
