Good to know before you book
- Traditional pieces tend to be quoted by piece, not hourly. Ask for flash sheets if you want a same-week appointment.
- Realism and portrait work depends heavily on reference quality — clean, well-lit source photos make the biggest difference.
- Colour-heavy pieces benefit from a structured touch-up visit 4–6 weeks after healing.
- Cover-ups are quoted in person — bring a clear photo of the existing piece before requesting a quote.
- Walk-in availability isn't always posted online — a quick phone call is the fastest way to know if they can fit you in today.

Stellar Service! I went in for a walk in piercing (my first one) to get both my ears pierced. Joe walked me through the whole process, good starter earring options, and was super informative and professional throughout everything. He answered all my questions and was super chill. The piercing itself was quick and fun actually. Highly recommended!
Was visiting Austin and decided to get a piercing. Joe is the best piercer I’ve ever met. He was very professional, kind , understanding and informational. What I liked is he showed me a proof that everything has been sterilized and walked me thru the process. Also gave me his business card just in case I had any questions and concerns!
Sarah is INCREDIBLE! I’ve have a lot of piercings and she’s by far the best piercer I’ve ever been to! 10/10 recommendation. She gave advice on the piercing, jewelry and the placement. She pierced my daith and it was basically pain free!!
