Body piercings are a diverse and ancient practice, with origins dating back thousands of years in…read morevarious cultures. Ear piercings are among the oldest, with evidence found on mummified remains. While they are often seen as a form of self-expression, they have also served various purposes throughout history, including ritualistic, cultural, and even symbolic roles. I came here on May 17th to get a hidden helix piercing to match my lil sis on the OCA team, Wendi K. (Go add her! She's Seattle's sweetheart). That and I've been seeing them on Instagram and they look cool. Megan was my piercer and everything went well. I chose a fun dangly 14k gold piece for my piercing as I know from a previous cartilage piercing that I need a more hypoallergenic metal. And while my ear anatomy doesn't quite make the piercing fully hidden, I'm happy with it. I'm glad to have had the consultation with Megan prior so I knew what I was getting myself into. Do yourself a favor and get pierced by Megan (walk-ins are allowed for piercings). Buy some saline solution here, tip generously, and walk away being a more decorated and shiny version of yourself.

I really liked the second female who waited on me. She was older, maybe middle 20's whereas the…read morefirst girl was maybe 18 and wasn't particularly helpful. I was on a schedule so I had to stop checking in and choosing the earrings and come back and that's how I got the second woman. I would have preferred to have more choices for my ear piercing stud, but I'm happy with the one I got. Were I to get a third hole in both my ears, I would definitely return here to have them pierced, but would bring my own stud. The young woman who pierced my ears was really careful regarding the placement of my second hole. The piercing part was quick and efficient. There was an attempt at a nice waiting area, but not enough for me to give five stars. I felt somewhat rushed, but that could just be because I'm an older woman, and I am not used to getting piercings.

I went to several other shops and I was told I needed a cover up but Gilbert's fantastic skill saved my portrait tattoo.

I figured the circumstances make it okay to add an update on my review for DHTC. As I said, I was…read morevery happy to have made the trip to Gilbert, AZ from Dallas, TX. 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".

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.

Have heard some other horror stories from smaller independent artists that this group is trying to make tattooing more exclusive. Maybe right, but not their place to decide who or why.

I've wanted a 3rd hole in my ears for some time, so it felt serendipitous that she was there! Dacie could do all different kinds of piercings and had a ton of different jewelry options. I went with simple gold diamond studs with a flat back. Dacie was amazing- she explained the process, I watched as she sanitized everything and pulled out fresh needles to do the piercings. She even had a ruler out to measure the spacing between holes and triple checked everything by was where I wanted it to be. She talking me through everything she was doing and voila, was done super quick. She sent me home with a saline solution to keep them clean and made sure all of my questions were answered before letting me off of the table. I felt super comfortable throughout, and love my new little bling!
