If you're looking for a safe, clean, and amazing piercing shop, look no further. Maria is THE BEST…read more I had multiple piercings done in one session, and the first thing you need to know is that I hate needles and I'm prone to passing out. However, Maria made me so comfortable, was so friendly, and hyped me up in all the best ways to make sure I got through it. In between piercings she gave me as much time as I needed to make sure I was ready for the next ones. She was also super knowledgeable about piercings, and all the safety procedures before, during, and after. After an infected tattoo at a totally different place, I'm really wary about unclean shops but I never once had a concern as she prepped everything. I truly can't say one bad thing about this shop or about Maria. I will recommend them to everyone.

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. Overall, I think the staff are great and make this place worth a visit. My actual piercing experience (Tragus, both sides) was also very great and I felt no sense of rushing which is always a plus!

Lines are crooked and letters are not even as not the same distance and not distinguishable. Worst tattoo experience of my life. Horrible work by Rob.

The shop was super clean and welcoming, and I loved the whole vibe of the place. Everyone I interacted with was really friendly. While I was there, I was also able to get a consultation with another artist about a cover-up I've been wanting to do, which was a huge plus. They took the time to talk through some options with me and give me an idea of what we could do with it. I'm really happy I found this shop and had such a good experience with Benny! I am so grateful to have found a local shop that checks all of the boxes!

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.

Buyer beware. On Wednesday 26th, November 2025 our daughter had two sets of piercings done by Sage…read moreat Banter/Piercing Pagoda at Superstition Mall. 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.

My update isn't adding much other than I still highly recommend this shop. James Withee the owner, is very good at what he does. If you're lucky enough to book with him, I certainly say from getting tattooed by him that James will do the absolute best he can to give you a tattoo you can be happy with. Even if you have a hard time sitting still like I did. Here is a healed shot of the tattoo James did on me back in May. All I can say is "Thank you".
