Wife had a piercing done. There needed to be an adjustment made. Was told the person would be in on certain days. That person didn't show at the given time three times. Wasted three trips on three different days. What started as a good experience ended up costing a lot of wasted time. And in today's economy time is very valuable, not to mention gas and wear and tear on the car. read more

Taryl did my labret and she was awesome. She talked me through the whole thing and made sure I was comfortable. Really clean establishment and awesome staff. Thanks again, Taryl! read more

I have gotten my daith, cartilage, and conch pierced here before with a lovely lady. Today, I got my tragus pierced with my friend by Blake and he was literally the best. He was extremely nice and considerate. He went over everything and I just want to thank him for the great experience! read more

I took my 9 year daughter here to get her ears pierced. I always thought that I would take her to Clair's, but after reading the reviews I decided that I'd take her to The Hole Look. Blake was amazing with my daughter, he carefully explained everything that what happen, explained all the tools he would use, and ensured she felt comfortable. As for clean, Blake cleaned everything he touched or even thought about touching. He even cleaned the new box of gloves he got from the other room. If anyone is thinking about getting a piercing, I'd definitely advise you to go to the Hole Look. Thanks Blake... read more

This place has some the raddest people/artists/piercers in the state! I've been getting all my ink done by reed since I was 18, 29 now and I've only ever got complements/laid from his work ha seriously an amazing artist. Painless James is super dope too and just a super nice/cool dude. Blake the main piercer there, that I've had the pleasure of get work done by, super good/quick at what he does, honestly if James didn't already have the painless nickname I think they'd call him painless Blake. Everyone at the front desk is super helpful and the owner Jill is nothing short of amazing, always makes me laugh and puts a smile on my face every time I leave. Oh yea and it's right next to the look so I always go get wrap and papers when I leave, one stop shopping for real! read more

I have 10 other piercings and 7 tattoos but finally got my nose pierced yesterday from here. I have had all of my things done in Oregon so I had no clue on a safe/clean/experienced studio so I asked around for the best shop and this place came highly recommended. I knew exactly what to look for and what I wanted in a studio to pierce me. This place had it all. Knowledgeable, clean, high quality jewelry, accepting atmosphere, no judgment, helpfulness. The lady at the front desk was incredibly nice, helpful, and clearly very knowledgeable. While I was waiting I heard her talking to other clients and gave the same respect to anyone who walked through the door. My piercer was fantastic. The place smells like a hospital (that's a good thing). Everything is incredibly clean. She had welcoming calming music on. She was sweet, relaxed, calm, and over all very helpful. Even after all my body modifications I still get nervous. She handled me with care and made it super fast and easy. She didn't make me feel weird or that I didn't fit in. Completely accepting atmosphere! I will 100% recommend this place for any piercing to anyone! Thanks for a great experience. read more

The Hole Look - Piercing Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Loved The Hole Look! Went in to get my naval and ears pierced, and the experience was smooth and easy. Blake was super friendly and knowledgeable, and the piercings look exactly as I pictured! 10/10 do recommend. read more

Excellent service and comfortable spot. Hands down the best shop in town. I've been a semi-regular for years, the guy (Blake) who pierced me 15 or so years ago has now pierced my kids..... he's got a lot of experience for sure. Go check them out! read more

I went in with a friend so we could get our daithes pierced together. We were greeted warmly, the staff was friendly and the establishment itself is bright and clean and a very nice open environment. We were treated very well and the staff was encouraging, fun, and professional. I highly recommend The Hole Look for getting piercings to anyone and have referred several people already! read more

I come here for all my piercings and they have never disappointed!! Front desk staff is always super nice, piercers are always friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. I've never had a bad experience here and i'd recommend this place to anyone! read more

Very clean establishment. Got my nose double pierced, and the staff was very knowledgeable about after care. Was in and out in less than thirty minutes for a walk in. read more

Friendly, professional, clean, and skilled. I had a dermal ripped out once and they were honest with me that my body may reject it, but did an awesome job at repiercing it and it's stayed in 4 years later. They have great selections of jewelry and fair pricing. It's my go to piercing place! Plus I love wandering over to the look attached to it to browse other fun things read more

An update to an update! It really shows the integrity of a business when they send out a personal message to their clients who are displeased with their service- offering a chance to fix it. I received a message from Blake, a piercer, on yelp. When I called him at the shop he was super nice and told me if I ever wanted to come back in they would fix me up (given he had read my review about getting a crooked lip piercing). If I get another piercing, off the The Hole Look I go! read more

I've gotten a few of my piercings done at this shop and though the artists there are good, what happened today was more than enough to make me never come back. My sister and I Went to go see about a nose piercing at 6 pm and their open sign was off even though their sign says they close at 9? I saw a lady in there cleaning so I thought I would just ask when they usually close since their sign isn't accurate. When she saw me she signaled that they were closed. I just needed to ask a question so I waved again. She dramatically rolled her eyes and stomped to the door and swung it open and said "yes? We're closed" she explained to me that 9 was a "loose number" because it all depends on what time the artists leave. Maybe the sign should say that? She was so rude and I just wanted to know what time they usually close. read more

Blake is amazing! He has done my Monroe and my VCH. I would highly recommend going to see that man! He talks to you about the whole procedure and what to expect. Very comforting! read more

I came in just before closing and was welcomed by a friendly, funny staff. My piercing was totally stress free and Jason was able to put me at ease. The shop is really clean and has great art everywhere-on the walls and the people! Keep it up, everyone, and thank you! read more

These guys are freaking terrific people and seriously skilled!

I have had several positive experiences at this shop! Every time I've went in the front desk and piercers were extremely helpful and friendly, also knowledgeable. Definitely the best option in Anchorage! read more

I had my medusa done here the other day, it was my first facial piercing so I was very nervous. The lady who pierced me was very friendly and had a very calming presence, I don't think it could have gone any better! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a very professional and clean experience. read more

They're extremely friendly and knowledgable, and always willing to help you out when thinking about a new piercing. The lady at the front is always so nice when I visit the shop. I got my naval pierced by Jason a year ago and he made it such an easy experience. Everything was calm, sterile, and he was gentle. It made getting my first real piercing less nerve-racking. The price of the piercings was nothing that ever stood out to me as being too much. I'm definitely planning on getting my next five piercings at The Hole Look. This is definitely the shop I recommend to friends and family for piercings. And hopefully soon for tattoos also! read more

I can't say enough on how great I think their shop is. The girl working the desk is friendly. The shop looks very clean and professional. I've had a few sessions with Ayla for a cover up piece, and she did phenomenal work! read more

I've gotten multiple cartilage piercings done here throughout the past year and have loved coming here. Everyone is always professional and welcoming. They made the entire process pretty painless. Prices were fair and their facilities were very clean. Will definitely come back here again for any future piercings. read more

The staff at The Hole Look were just amazing. I was visiting Anchorage and had a 48 hour window where I could get the work done that I wanted. My friend and I were booked in for a same-day consultation and given an appointment the very next day, despite the artist's packed schedule. Charlie (the artist) was incredibly friendly and helpful, working on the design I wanted and the work itself is absolutely beautiful. The other staff were just lovely also. I really couldn't be happier with my experience here and highly recommend it.. read more

So so impressed! I got my cartilage pierced somewhere else and had been having trouble with it. I came in and they evaluated it and helped my find a longer piece of jewlery. They were super gentle replacing it, barely felt anything despite how irritated it was! Overall very impressed and price was really reasonable. Would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone else! read more

I called asking how much angel bites would cost and the lady on the phone was super nice. She knew exactly what I wanted and how much it would cost. Unfortunately it was still way more money than I can bring myself to spend on an easy piercing, $70 per and $75 with gems :T Which sucks cause she was so niiiiice D: read more

I had gone to this establishment in February of this year 2016. I cleaned my piercing religiously and ended up with an in infection that required emergency surgery.. I almost lost my life due to the infection. I was out of work for 6 weeks. I would not recommend anyone to go to this place. The needle that was used was not opened in front of me or discarded in front of me. read more

Cannot begin to describe how awesome my experience here was. After getting referred to this place by BPU (they didn't have a variety of jewelry) I was a bit skeptical to even get my nipples pierced at all. I'm a bit of a nervous wreck when it comes to experiencing new kinds of pains. So I went in there to see if I was really going to go through with it. I was quite happy with the pep talk/questions answered from the lady at the front desk. She definitely made me feel more at ease and comfortable. So then I finally decided to go through with it. Taryl did my piercing and they had an awesome variety of jewelry for nipple piercings. She did an awesome job at walking through every step with me. There were no surprises at all. The piercing experience was definitely awesome for me because I came in very nervous and scared and it was literally over before I knew it. The piercing room is very clean and everything looks to be sterile and sanitizes. Would definitely recommend anyone to come get their piercings here. It's pretty legit. read more

This place is where you need to go to get professionally pierced. All the ladies there are super professional and pleasant. Definitely would not go anywhere else in anchorage but here. read more

Of all the places I called about getting my septum pierced, The Hole Look was the cheapest and way more friendly and helpful on the phone. I saw Adam and he was great! I was really nervous and he made sure all my questions were answered and I was comfortable. He also did a fantastic job with my septum piercing as well, it's perfectly straight. I will definitely be back if I decide to get any other piercings. Can't recommend enough! read more

I have visited this establishment on multiple occasions but recently encountered an extremely pushy blonde with a septum piercing at the front desk. Discussion of things such as infection control and telling the client what to do in a condescending manner in front of customers is highly inappropriate. Being that i am a board certified critical care nurse and infection control nurse i believe i would know more than the front desk assistant and arguing with a client is a bad business practice. Being that anchorage is a small place and there are multiple establishments for piercing needs, you should probably hire individuals with proper customer service attitudes. From here on i will recommend one of the many piercing shops for peoples piercing and body jewelry needs. I myself will not be returning. read more

I just got a triple forward helix yesterday, and I absolutely love it. The experience was so good. I was nervous going in, but the piercer made me feel comfortable and explained every step of the process to me. She was able to do all three piercings with very minimal pain, and the placement and everything just turned out great. I'm hoping the healing process will go just as smoothly, but I do feel comfortable that if something goes wrong they will be able to help me! read more

I just got my industrial pierced at the Hole Look last night, and I LOVE it. Adam was my piercer, and he took his time because he wanted it to turn out perfect. You could tell he truly does his best and takes pride in his work. He was so sweet and made sure I was comfortable and explained everything as he was going so that I wouldn't be nervous or surprised. And the girl at the front desk ( I can't remember her name =/ ) was so sweet and friendly and definitely knew her stuff and answered all my questions. Before deciding where I wanted to go, I called both Body Piercing Unlimited locations to ask them simple questions about making an appointment and their hours, and BOTH girls who answered the phones had such an attitude and were no help at all and were NOT friendly -- definitely a turn off! That made me not want to bother driving out there and having to deal with them. So I called The Hole Look and the girl who answered the phone was so nice and willing to answer my question. It doesn't hurt to go the extra mile and be a little friendly! You lose business if you're rude to potential customers, simple as that. Anyway, I am VERY happy with my piercing and highly recommend The Hole Look to anyone. read more
