    Ears right after
    Natalie L.

    Got my daughter's ears pierced here for her 6th birthday. Such a great experience! They really took the time to explain things and make her comfortable, which was so appreciated. Highly recommend!

    I can't recommend this place enough! Had my 3 year old daughter's ears pierced here and they were so good with her. Friendly, informative and made her feel totally comfortable.

    We came to Red dragon tattoo for my 3 year olds ear piercing. We were "greeted" by the front shop girl. I use greeted loosely as she was very rude when asking us what we were there for. We received the paper work, filled it out, and went to the room for piercing. I thought there would be more earring options as well but all they had were silver or gold and same style (cheaply looking earrings). Kevin and Kristen were both very sweet and engaging with my daughter. They quickly pierced both ears at once and then gave us instructions for after care. We went home followed instructions. I'm not sure if it's the tattoo shop policy for the after care instructions but I definitely think they need to update it with better cleaning options. First off trying to find dial soap without fragrance is difficult; the other cleaning solution listed has fragrance in the ingredient list which I wouldn't put anything fragrance on a piercing or wound. Secondly trying to cleaning a toddlers ear with soap is not as easy as it sounds. My daughter was in a lot of pain and had major swelling, bruising and bleeding days and days after the piercings. I ended up researching all day trying to figure out if she had an infection/allergy to the earrings/etc. I ordered NeilMeds aftercare piercing as I found a few videos and posts saying how this type of products helped clean and heal piercings faster. Even other mom groups were talking about the solution being the go to. When it arrived I used it twice a day that first day and by the next day her ears were 10x better. I've been using the spray 2x a day since getting it instead of dial soap which if you have a baby or toddler or anyone really it's easier and more convenient. I'd go this route. Also, I did go to the shop to have Kevin look at the ears and he said they weren't infected and no allergy to earrings. He was great! Con's: -cheapy/lack of options for earrings -rude receptionist -bad cleaning aftercare options/advice

    Decided to get my nostril pierced last minute. I called around 9pm to check if they did walk ins, they were open until midnight which is already a plus one! I came around 9:40pm ish to get my nostril piercing, the girl up front was super nice and informative as I wanted to see what kind of jewelry they had. The process was pretty fast, since nobody was there. Did paper work and they scanned my ID and everything. My piercer was Kevin, he was super nice and quick also. He cleaned my nose and pierced it pretty fast. I was in and out within less then 10 minutes! Pretty satisfied with the placement! Can't wait until it heals, Will be back if I'm ever in the area.

    I went during Friday the 13th sale got two helix's I had to wait for 2 hrs but it was so worthwhile. My piercer took great care of me and was super informative about aftercare.

    What I gave him

    If I could give a zero I would. I got a small ankle tattoo here a few years ago I dont remember the guys name but he seemed high asf. I gave him the picture of the tattoo I wanted, he printed it out, placed it on my ankle with the stencil ink and had me check to make sure I liked it. It was perfect so I don't know how it got so messed up but the final result looks like he completely erased the stencil and started from scratch. The cursive word isn't even spelt right....NEVER get tattoos here!

    Ask the Community - Red Dragon Tattoo and Piercing

    Hello I see that you charge $40 to pierce a 4yo's earlobes. Does that price include cost of jewelry? Thanks in advance!

    Hi there! Yes, the Jewelry is included in the cost of $40 total. Only extra is if you decide to tip! :)

    Do you guys still have "half nose rings"? I got one from you guys a few years ago and it has a flat disc on one end, and the open ring on the other. Super easy to get in and out :)?

    Yes we do!

    Do you guys pierce both kids ears at the same time?

    Yes they do.

    What do you charge to piers a 4 year old girls ears? Also do you do both ears at once or one at a time?

    $40 for the pair! They are pierced at the same time, but make sure you call and set an appointment to make sure there are two piercers there to do them.

    Do you guys do baby ear piercing?

    At least 6 months old with all immunizations.

    Do you guys tattoo 17 year olds?

    No, it's illegal in the state of California for a minor to be tattooed under any circumstance.

    Do you have anyone that has had an experience with an industrial piercing? I saw some other piercing shops where you need to be 18 to get that piercing. Can i get that piercing if im underage with permission of my parents?

    Both Kevin and Ron have done hundreds of them for years.

Which is so silly because making the appointment is so easy through their website. I've now had 5 total piercings at DV8 over the course of the last year and a half on my ear curation journey. All are healing well and I'm very happy with the placements.  Keep in mind the jewelry is not included in the piercing fee, and it can add up quick if you're a gold lover. But if you're getting subsequent piercings, they allow you to bring in any previous jewelry that you've already purchased from them to use for future piercings. Just keep in mind that your appointment may take a little longer because they will need to sanitize the jewelry. I'm most impressed with the detailed aftercare instructions. I was horrified by the lack of instructions my sister received after being pierced at a VERY POPULAR piercing place in Berkely on Telegraph Ave (you know the place). She came with me to one of my appointments at DV8 and said, wow, they didn't tell me ANY of that stuff at the other place. And I was like, I KNOW - that's why I only come to DV8. They are also certified by the Association of Professional Piercers, so I feel confident that everything they do is safe and sanitary.

    Friendly staff and clean environment. However, pricing on their website was very deceptive. I got…read moremy earlobes pierced, which was listed as $25. This turned out to be $25 per ear, which does NOT include the price of jewelry. I picked some of the simplest studs they offered, and those plus the backing came out to an additional $86. We were told they would not use outside jewelry- which is fine, but with prices like these? Ouch!! Overall quality was acceptable, but $136 before tax and tip is much too high for a basic piercing.

For aftercare, they recommended the Studex Advanced 2 in 1 Piercing Aftercare and Cleanser. We were given very simple instructions, just spray 2x a day to the front and back of each piercing and dab with a paper towel! No twisting, turning or use of cotton squabs, otherwise it will delay healing. Just leave the earring alone for 6 weeks before replacing with new ones! Much better than when I had mine pierced at a previous place years back, explains why they got infected each time!

The girls were both excited and nervous to get pierced for the first time. Because the girls were so nervous, we had used some numbing cream on the girls ears, however when we got there, they turned us away to reschedule the appointment due to the numbing cream. They wouldn't even let us come back later that day for it. The whole interaction regarding having the reschedule bc of the numbing cream was a little off putting. However we did reschedule the appointment for the next day. We had to wait over 30 minutes after our appointment time which has pretty nerve wracking for little girls nervous to get their first piercing. The piercing experience was ok. The reason we chose AuAdore was so that the girls could get pierced in a private room and not in the middle of the mall. However, make sure to ask for a breakdown of the cost afterwards bc I had no idea it was going to be as expensive as it was. Normally I wouldn't necessarily expect this however due to the huge cost difference between their establishment and other locations in the mall, I think they should provide pricing info beforehand. You have to purchase the jewelry there, so with one pair of stud earrings and the piercing, it came to $200 per kid! I walked away after spending over $400 on these kids, when I could have gotten free piercing at Clair's. Also, at the end of the appointment they inform us that we "have" to come back for a follow up appointment in order to gauge down the earrings. Oh yea, that appointment also costs money. Needless to say, we didn't do that and had a sour taste in our mouth about the whole experience. I know there is a proper way to care for piercings, however the communication about how pressing it is for us to buy certain saline and everything felt like pressure vs information. I wouldn't recommend.

    What a great piercing place!…read more The girl at the front desk is kind and helpful. She helped me pick out a pretty earring and measured it up to my ear to make sure it would fit. I am so sorry I forgot your name. But you're great! Courtney who was my piercer is an absolute GEM! (Get it?) She was so gentle and friendly. I got my conch pierced with a beautiful piece of jewelry. Courtney took care of me and made sure I was okay through the whole process and how to breathe while the needle went through. This is by far the best piercing I have ever had, and I have 12. It healed perfectly with no issues. I can sleep on it, wash my hair, talk on the phone for work, wear ear buds without it hurting since day 1. It's literally the perfect spot for an earring! Went back in today (about 8 weeks later as recommended) to get a shorter stud put in (extra cost) because the original post is longer to aid in healing and swelling process. They give you the original stud in case you want to reuse it for another piercing later which saves you $20 next time! Sweet! I will say this was definitely an expensive piercing, however knowing you're in a clean environment, in good hands and that the jewelry is hand made is pretty worth it. It's neat to know that the owner makes a lot of the jewelry there. They are beautiful. Note: don't touch or take your jewelry out in the store, they have signs in there to keep their environment sterile for the people getting piercings. Smart and thoughtful! Cant wait to go back!! If you go, ask for Courtney!!

It's also a lot closer than the other shop I was used to going to. Fallen Angel is a tattoo shop and the set up inside is gorgeous. I liked how the tattoo stations were set up facing the windows and the clients getting tattoos had movies playing for a nice distraction. There didn't seem like much room, but maybe it was (since I'm not the expert, lol). Everyone looked comfortable! We met Shannon! She walked out with gorgeous long purple & blue hair and a big smile. I instantly loved her personality! After introductions, she went to go sanitize the room so we could all get pierced. One by one and we watched each other all get pierced, Shannon took her time with each of us. We all did something different. My daughter got a floating halo, her grandmother got a flat, I think?? I got the conch. Right before Shannon pierced us, she offered to count down if we wanted. I needed a count down, lol! How funny is my daughter that as I decided on the conch, she whispers the word "ouch" to me before I was pierced, lol! Yeah it hurt, but it also felt great! Shannon was quick with it and handled my ear worth care. Shannon also explain to each of us the process of keeping it clean daily, a few times a day with saline. We all took it like Champs! I am super happy with mine! This is definitely my go-to shop to get pierced from now on!
