My surface bar. I haven't got a picture of my earlobes
Eric C.

From the moment I went in to I got pierced and left. The experiences were absolutely amazing. Staff was wonderful, location was incredible clean and maintained. My piercings (surface bar and both earlobes) went smoothly. Highly recommend.

It's been a year and a few more piercings later and I'm happy to share that this place still rocks. I had a rook earring fall out of my ear in my sleep and panicked that it would heal up. It had been a year so I rushed my butt over there to try and save it. Dylan was great and I'm so glad we were able to recover it. He also did the other two I randomly decided to get while I was there. It was nice to have the same person consistently. Oh, and I bought two new rose gold hoops for my cartilage piercings. They were $75 a piece but after purchasing their jewelry last year and it really holding up, I was happy to pay the extra cost. Their name doesn't lie. They have truly mastered the science and art of piercing. Five stars, no doubt.

Back of ear

My friend since childhood got an ear lobe piercing. The left ear was recently re-pierced but the right ear hadn't been pierced since 7 years ago. The right ear got terribly infected 5 days later. Now, I know that the fact that it hadn't been pierced in a while probably played a part, but theres definitely more. The employee at the front desk told her she didn't need to twist them, the earring was barely big enough to fit through her ear lobe, tons of paper work, pierced with a needle, and the earring was crooked. A few hours later the left ear bled. She tried to take her right earring out, but it was insanely difficult and painful. When she took it out, the ear was infected, puss filled, brownish purple colored, dry, and painful. The atmosphere was fine, and you wouldn't assume anything, but her experience was terrible.

Kids ear piercing

Came in shortly after opening as a walk-in. They were BUSY but we didn't have to wait very long. During the wait, we filled out paperwork and picked the jewelry. My daughter and I both did earlobes. I was impressed that they treated her like her own person and helped her initial/sign her own papers (she's 6yo). Hazel helped us at the counter and was pleasant, helpful, and informative. Lauren was our piercer and she did an amazing job with my kiddo who was nervous. All equipment used was opened in front of us and everything was clean and professional.

Great piercing shop! Helpful staff and super clean. Sunday was very busy but they still got us in and out quickly. Love my new piercing

Daith piercing :)
Trinity S.

Update: I got more piercings (shock). Like always, they did great! I had Nick this time and he made sure I liked the placement before piercing me and was very easy to talk to. I even got my helix redone (in the original picture with my daith, my old helix was infected and I took it out months after this review. With masks, it wasn't healing correctly). If anybody cares, this is a timeline of how long I've been coming here (and this is the ONLY place I will go) 2017 (my freshman year): I got my lobes pierced here. I don't remember who did them, but they did a great job. Mid to late 2018: I went and got my seconds on my lobes done as well as my helix by Christine Late 2019 or early 2020: got my daith done, also by Christine Early 2020: got my rook & tragus done, by Christine Today, 1/18/22: Got my thirds on my lobes done as well as repiercing my helix.

Nice and small!

Was referred to Piercology by a few people indicating that it was the best place for piercings. I had been wanting to get a nose piercing for many years but I heard horror stories. After doing my own research and read reviews about this place I gave them a try and I have no regrets. Four months later and I haven't had any problems. I followed their cleaning and care instructions and everything is on point. I highly recommend this place. Customer service and the techs were awesome.

Right before removal
Kira J.

I went into this shop on a whim. I had hip dermals for 6 years and I decided it was time to get them out. Back when I got them I never wore any high waisted pants... but now that's all I wear & it would often irritate them! I woke up one morning and one of the tops fell out and I knew it was time. I'm writing this to help people know that hip dermals can last that long & also that the scarring hasn't been as bad as I thought! I did wait for quite some time, but they have appts! The guy who removed mine was very nice and it was only $5 to get all three removed-- super cheap and he did an awesome job. There's a photo of right before I went in, right after they were taken out, and a month later.

Nose piercing
Laurie E.

We had a girls day and decided on a whim that we all wanted piercings. We walked in around 4:30-5 and after paper work we were taken back almost immediately. Everyone was so professional and friendly. They even gave me a bottle of saline as a belated birthday gift they were very thorough with cleaning and proper care instructions

Nostril piercing.

They did a great job! I had my front helix pierced and the stud in my tragus changed to a hoop. They offer a huge selection of nice jewelry!

How much would it cost for one cartilage piercing?

$25 but that is only for getting it pierced. Basic jewelry is $35 I think. I got my cartilage pierced 6 months ago or so.

They accept walk-ins right?

Yes. Two of us walked in together received 3 piercings. There was a small wait but they were incredibly professional and my piercing (both) have healed well with no problems

I reached out to Luka (Weinberger) about a year ago because I came across their work - both tattoos…read moreand other forms - and thought I had to have this person's art on my body. They were incredibly friendly and professional from start to finish. If I'm being honest, my request was full on stanning, but I just really wanted Luka to know that I thought their work was beautiful and hoped we could work together. Days leading up to the appointment, Luka was very clear in their communication with me. The appointment itself was great. It was very nice to explore all kinds of topics with Luka, while quiet time was sweetly woven in. We even shared the lunch break together. The short of it is - I'm honored that I got to know Luka and really happy that I have a couple of beautiful pieces from them. I'm already thinking about the next two I'd like to ask them to work on.

I would go back Pretty standard shop. Prices are pretty much the norm, jewelry can be a little…read morepricey depending on what you're looking for. The guys in the shop were super cool, very friendly and personable. Sandroni was the one that did my tragus piercing. He was very knowledgeable, definitely knew what he was doing. Explained all of the dos and don't, as well as the whole process of the piercing. I have to say, out of all of my piercings, this one did not hurt and wasn't even red or swollen right after and even throughout the healing process. He did a great job! The room was super clean and up to date. I would definitely recommend this shop for a piercing, ask for Sandroni Oh and go on your birthday so the price of the piercing is free (Still have to pay for jewelry so don't get crazy)

I've been a loyal customer of Bella's Piercing since 2022. My partner and I first brought our…read morenewborn daughter here to get her ears pierced, and we were very impressed with the clean, professional, and welcoming environment. Since then, I've returned for my own piercings, including my navel and both nipples, and have recommended Bella's to friends. Recently, I discovered that my left nipple piercing was placed incorrectly. While my right side healed perfectly, the left has become uncomfortable causing soreness during normal activities like sleeping and wearing bras. Upon closer inspection, I noticed it sits too high through the middle of the nipple instead of at the base, which explains the discomfort. At the time of the piercing, a trainee was performing the work under the supervision of someone I believe was the owner or senior piercer, so this placement issue should have been caught and corrected immediately. I trusted the staff's expertise, and this oversight has created ongoing discomfort. I'm reaching out in hopes that management will contact me to discuss correcting the placement, ideally by re-piercing the left nipple at the base. I want to continue supporting and recommending Bella's, but it's important that this mistake is addressed professionally. Bella's has a history of excellent service, and I hope this situation can be resolved promptly and fairly.

This is my warning to parents. Don't take your children here…read more My daughter wanted to get her ears pierced and her friend recommended this place. As parents my wife and I strive to teach our kids the skills they need to be great adults, including allowing them to make their own decisions. She had saved the money and wanted to go here. So that's what we did; my wife and I and our daughters went to Bella Piercing. From the moment we arrived, I had a bad feeling. For both business and pleasure, I've traveled and shopped all across the US, from the best stores and shops in Chicago to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. On Rodeo Drive, you walk into a store and some employees give off that, "We are so completely awesome you are lucky to be here" vibe. On Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, it's kind of expected and part of the fun. Not so much from a "wannabe" boutique on a side street in Gahanna, Ohio. The only other customer left the store so it was just us and the employees. Of course, the staff spent several minutes pretending to be too busy to come help us right away. So we sat down and let my daughter stand at the counter to wait to pick out her earrings. The piercing was completed but not before I was shocked that it was close to $200. My daughter explained that the sales person advised her to get the better, more expensive earrings because they would last longer. We were home only a couple of hours and one of the earring posts snapped. My daughter was just sitting in her bed when it happened. Of course, it was after store hours so we had to wait to go back. The next day we drove back to Gahanna and my daughter explained the situation. We were met with the most condescending, pretentious accent, telling my daughter that they had a no refund policy. I then explained that they had sold my daughter more expensive earrings than she came for because they were better and would last longer. Those "better, longer lasing" earrings broke after 2+ hours and they needed to replace it. This wasn't a return of earrings that were bought months ago. We had just bought them. After some back and forth, they reluctantly replaced them. I know that if a parent had not been there, they would have pushed my teenage daughter into spending another $150 to buy new earrings. Parents, don't take your children here.
