I went here to get my snake bites done and the piercer was very friendly and they made sure I was comfortable at all times. The person at the front desk was very friendly and helped me pick out my jewelry. 10/10 service would highly recommend! read more

Did a walk-in for a nose piecing. Staff was friendly and helpful upon walking in. Gill was my piercer and he was incredible. Not only was he calm when I was nervous, but he thoroughly walked me through everything very clearly and it didn't even really hurt! 10/10 experiences and would highly recommend Gill! read more

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with getting my eyebrow piercing from Leo. They were very welcoming and friendly. They made sure to ask me questions and for my feedback on the placement of my piercing. I liked the shop's overall ambiance, so I'll definitely be back. read more

I have had nothing but great experiences here. Everyone is very helpful with my questions. I love my nose ring and glad I did it!

Had a good experience getting some piercings, but the helix piercing they gave me healed over at the back. That was my fault, not theirs, but when I asked what to do the email that came back was judgmental, not helpful, and someone called Philip told me my only option was to go and see a doctor. I contacted Atomic Tattoo to get a second opinion, they told me come in, and Raynan Cravey at the Burnet location fixed it in a moment for $5.00. If I had listened to Diablo Rojo, I would be spending a fortune at Urgent Care about now. Naturally I'll be going to Raynan at Atomic from now on. I am so disappointed because I spent a lot of money getting my piercings and jewelry at Diablo Rojo, had heard really great things about them, then had this truly awful customer service experience. read more

5/5 Sterile environment, very clean, and quick service. I really like that you could join their wait list online and see your spot live on the list after signing in. Jason have excellent service and made sure my piercing was done perfect. I experienced no pain at all and loved the end product. If you are looking to get a piercing I would 100% recommend this shop. read more

Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio - Piercing Near Me - Austin, Texas

I'm an older customer with a nose stud from my initial piercing. My piercing has healed and I was looking for a diamond stud to replace the starter stud. The selection at Diablo Rojo was amazing, and the young woman that helped, just as wonderful! I had to wait a bit, but not too long to have them replace the studs. I was beyond impressed with their level of sterilization and professionalism. I really wish I had gone there for the initial piercing. Everyone was so kind! And older people...if you're considering a piercing...do it! Diablo Rojo will help you feel right at home! read more

The staff is amazing, always ready to help, give you advice about piercing care even if it's done by another piercer, and the vibes are just up. Shout out to Quanyin (she's an angel)!! read more

I wanted to get my original tragus jewelry taken out (pierced at a different shop in Houston) and had struggled doing it myself, so I chose this place based on reviews and location. It's a very clean shop, excellent selection of quality jewelry, and the staff is also super nice and helpful. What I loved the most was their honesty. Mike, who helped remove and replace the jewelry, talked me out of one of the pieces of jewelry I was interested in because it wouldn't sit right in a tragus piercing. That's something I would have never thought about, and I really value that. I'll be back for sure! Also, Waze will pull up their old location near East Side Kings. Do not use Waze to get to the shop. It's in the same parking lot at Michi Ramen and Kerbey Lane. read more

I was recommended Diablo Rojo by a friend, it was my first time at the establishment. My piercer (Leo) was phenomenal! - I went in for a naval piercing and Leo was super informative on the process and the aftercare, constantly made sure i was comfortable and doing okay, and talked me through every step of the way. This is probably the most thorough, kind, and comfortable experience i've had thus far at any piercing establishment in austin! :) read more

My daughter decided that last Sunday she was ready to get her ears pierced. She made the decision to commit to it and so we went. We got there around 1P and it was quite busy. Everyone decided to get something pierced that day. Gill was the only piercer, but he informed us of the 1.5/2hr wait. My daughter didn't want to leave because she didn't know if she would have the guts to do it again. I understand that feeling. When our time came, he had me scan a QR code for the waiver while he assisted her in picking out earrings. When we went to the back, he closed the door and informed her that she was the most important person in the room and in control of everything. He walked her thru everything he was going to do and told her he wouldn't start til she gave the thumbs up. He went over breathing and told me where I would stand when he pierced each ear. I will say that when everything was done she loved her experience. He was very helpful and knowledgeable and just knew how to talk to kids. He informed me that he tends to pierce a lot of kids. It has been 4 days since she got it pierced and she is still in love with it and I am glad we went. read more

I came in wanting to add another nose piercing but couldn't decide if I wanted the same side or opposite. Dill gave me a few ideas and ultimately I ended up adding a stud stacked above my current hoop and a symmetric stud so I can have matching hoops once it heals. The process was great, and the website details were spot on for what to expect as far as COVID procedures. My estimated time was 60 minutes but I ended up only waiting about 20 minutes! Overall a great experience, and I didn't feel rushed into making placement/jewelry choices. I'll definitely be back. The shop was very clean, there was a good variety of jewelry to choose between, and the piercing itself was great (especially for someone who always gets nervous, even after having been pierced and tattooed a bunch of times.) It was worth every dollar! I'm already brainstorming what to do next with my ears. read more

Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio - Two new piercings and one healed ring. - Piercing Near Me - Austin, Texas

Took my teen daughter to get a piercing. Mike was AMAZING! Told her what to expect and explained everything so well. Also covered the after-care thoroughly. And just a nice, chill guy. Will come back! read more

Diablo Rojo is a really great place to get piercings if you don't mind waiting. They work slow but very thorough. I came for a forward helix and a conch piercing and Gil talked through the entire process and was very sanitary the entire time. He definitely has experience know where to pierce to get the exact look I was going for. The only detractor is that we had to wait over an hour when there were only a couple parties in front of us but it's well worth the wait for a sanitary, skilled piercer. I would recommend going on off hours during the week to skip the wait if that's a big concern. read more

The assistant/apprentice was stunningly kind and informative when I came with a friend to restretch my septum and her get her labyrinth (idk the lip one) and we both felt super comfortable with our piercers. The place has a clean atmosphere and offers plenty of jewelry for anyone to say "you know what that's my style". Would come back for another piercing any day. read more

If you are wanting a piercing and your new to the game, come here and ask for Jason. I have had two Tragus piercings done here and I couldn't be happier. Jason advised me on jewelry choice, placement, and after care. My piercings healed up perfectly and look beautiful! The studio is very clean and and I felt comfortable. NOTE This studio does follow COVID restrictions and takes one appointment at a time, even if you are only buying jewelry. When you get to the studio you scan a QR code and fill out a piercing and COVID release form. Patience is a virtue and this place is worth the wait. read more

Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio - Tragus - Piercing Near Me - Austin, Texas

I accidentally ripped my nose piercing out and went in with the idea of just getting a new stud but decided to get my other nostril pierced. They were extremely busy given the time, around 5pm, but Kate up front was upbeat and helped everyone pick out the jewelry they wanted and answered everyone's questions. My piercer, Leo, was super informative and explained the whole process and wanted to make sure my double nose piercings were symmetrical. He kept apologizing but wanted to make sure everything was even, which I really appreciated. Leo made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I always recommend this studio just because of how informative everyone is and how comfortable they want their clients to be in a safe and sterile environment. Couldn't thank Leo and Kate enough for being sweet and well informed. read more

Cannot say enough good things about Mike! My 10-year-old and I went in yesterday for her first earrings; I've been in before for a piercing and had a great experience. There was a long wait, but that's because they take their time prepping you, sanitizing everything, and being meticulous about placement before the actual piercing. My daughter was so anxious and he was so sweet with her, helping her get the perfect earrings, talking her though what he was doing, reminding her to breathe, and then gently talking her through the at-home care and telling her how awesome she did. Mike, if you see this, she may have been shy and not super smiley in the chair, but she hasn't stopped smiling and talking about how much she loves her earrings. Thank you so much! read more

We are so impressed with this place! Gill pierced my 9 year old daughter's ears and he was wonderful with her. He discussed the process step by step before getting started. She had several questions, and he was incredibly patient, answering them all. The staff was friendly and helpful. Everything was sterilized and the entire facility was very clean. Everyone was so professional. We would recommend anyone -young or old - to get pierced here! Thank you so much for an excellent experience! -Penny and family read more

Shandi is great! I saw her for the second time in about a month. First was to get my lobe peirced and this past weekend saw her again to get a new earing for that same piecing. A month ago when I first got the piercing she explained everything the whole process to me and that made me feel really comfortable. The secong time I went in I changed my earing out from a gold hammered earing to a sparkling marquise, that is just beautiful! I love it so much Thank you Shandi! read more

I went here solely on a quick review of places near me. I walked in and met Gill, who helped me with everything. I wanted gauges for my ear (2Gauge\6mm) is what I want to end with and he gave me two options, the long way or the short way, and I went with the short way, having had zero piercings in my life. Few breaths in and with an exhale wham bam thank you ma'am I had a hole in my ear although he didn't have the 6mm I made it to 4mm and will head back here when I need the jump from 6 - 4. Great experience. Didn't know what to expect! Got a really good vibe from the place and would highly recommend this place. (I was at the Guadalupe Location -- Follow the signs upstairs for piercing.) read more

Gill is an absolute gem. Came in 5 years ago for a different set of piercings. Literally my best piercing experience I'd ever had (at that time I had 8). Went back today to have my conch done -- made sure to come back to Diablo Rojo because of Gill and the experience I had the first time. This time was even better. I now have 12 piercings and will continue to come back to Diablo Rojo/ Gill for all others going forward. 10/10 do recommend. read more

Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio - Conch Piercing - Piercing Near Me - Austin, Texas

I walked in to buy some nose jewelry , The girl upfront was super nice the vibes were great BUT I was SHOCKED by how expensive everything was. I had a $80-$150 budget for gold jewelry and all they had in my budget were simple starters. Im all about paying for quality and supporting local businesses but you could also easily find pure gold nose jewelry with great designs and real gems for much cheaper on Etsy. Im sure it's a great place to get the initial piercings but if you want something cuter than a starter piece without spending $275-$400 I suggest going somewhere else read more

Nice store front, well stocked in most items with options to order something a bit more unique. Clean and private rooms for appointments. Pleasant enough staff! read more

I had an incredibly positive experience getting pierced with Mike. The studio is extremely clean and all the staff are friendly and welcoming. It made a bold decision safe and enjoyable. I'll definitely be back to buy jewelry and I highly recommend anyone considering getting piercings to trust Diablo Rojo. Thank you! read more

I had an extremely frustrating and insulting experience at El Diablo. My sister attempted to take my 15 year old daughter to get an ear piercing for her birthday. When they arrived they were told that a parent needed to be present so I drove to the shop. When I arrived they told me I needed to bring her birth certificate so I drove back home and brought a copy along with her passport. That copy was used to get her passport. The manager came out and was incredibly condescending and told me it was state law that I needed to bring her actual birth certificate a certified copy and her passport was not sufficient. She then tried to tell us that they could be charged with assault and I should know more before coming in. We left and went to a different establishment and had a wonderful time and my daughter loves her piercing. This led me to review the law and it does NOT state you need the original birth certificate but a valid government id. In addition the legal definition of assault demands intent of harm. I'm fine with a business having rules or not wanting to assume liability but don't reprimand your customers on the law especially when you are wrong. Here are the rules- https://www.dshs.texas.gov/tattoo-body-piercing-studios/licensing-requirements-tattoo-body-piercing-studios#:~:text=An%20artist%20may%20not%20perform,%2C%20%C2%A7229.406(d). https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/PE/htm/PE.22.htm#:~:text=22.01.,including%20the%20person's%20spouse%3B%20or read more

This establishment employs professional piercers and is kept pristinely clean. Both of those factors are major pluses when I enter piercing galleries and tattoo parlors-- basically a plus for any time someone's gonna stick me with needles for aesthetic purposes. My friend and I came here on a late Sunday night and had no wait, except for while we waited for Mason to sanitize the piercing area and equipment. By the way, Mason was a hoot. He is super well educated and explains things down to a T. I even had my nose pierced multiple times before and I still learned something new. He has a calming demeanor, and before you even know it, he's finished with his work. My only issue was I do believe it's a bit overpriced. It costs $35 for the nose piecing and another $20 for the jewelry (at cheapest. It only goes up from there). I've never been to an establishment where I had to pay for even the most basic jewelry. I'm comforted to know that for the price they gave me the absolute best service, but I do yearn for that $15 piercing cost I can find at my go-to piercing parlor in Houston. read more

Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio - My nose piercing, right after Mason was done. No blood! - Piercing Near Me - Austin, Texas

A couple friends and I stopped by to get some piercings done yesterday and we had a great experience. Andy was very informative and wanted to ensure we were comfortable with the healing process of our piercings before moving forward. He did a great job with all three of our piercings and he made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The shop was small but has a small seating area to wait. There are alot of jewelry options and was very clean! Would highly recommend this shop and Andy! read more

Go with Gil!!!!! He's the man, does quick, clean, organized work and helped me pick out the best studs to match my current stack! The jewelry selection overall is pretty impressive! Thanks for being Covid safe and putting my mind at easy with the sanitation process. read more

Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio - Triple helix - Piercing Near Me - Austin, Texas

An awesome place to get piercings! I had my ear pierced by Andy and he was wonderful. He described how to clean my piercings, confirmed that all the equipment was clean, and suggested helpful advice! Additionally, he minimized the pain of the piercing by telling me to focus on breathing in and out, which I found to be very helpful. All the jewelry there is real and there's many options to choose from. For those under 18, minors are allowed! I'm underage and I was able to get my ear pierced. However, you need to bring a government official birth certificate to confirm your age. It may be a bit pricey, but the quality and service makes the money worth it. 10/10 RECOMMEND! read more

Nate our piercing dude was excellent on taking time to explain all things. Also sanitizing all things and felt calming for only a second hole on my lobe. While in Austin my friend and I went for a memorable experience together to really capture a memory while in Texas!! Fun times. Thanks Nate read more

Shouts out to Gill!! My experience at Diablo was efficient, informative, and comforting. My nostril piercing was infected because someone at True Blue tattoo sold me a nose infinity hoop that was too small. My nose literally looked like a tomato!! I was so frustrated so I decided to go to Diablo. Appointment style: -there's an online wait list so you don't need to wait in the heat -they text you beforehand of what service you want to prepare -respond to your texts fairly fast Sanitation: -they have covid requirements like being fully Vaxxed and wearing masks -I like how they take covid seriously -I loved how it wasn't crowded, only me and the piercer -Gill sanitized his tools for eight minutes right when I got there -He washed his hands thoroughly in front of me then put on gloves to handle my piercing Customer service: I really loved how Gill DIDN'T try to sell me any jewelry or convince/pressure me to do anything. Very patient to answer questions, didn't seem in a rush, and let me explain my situation. So many times I've gone to OTHER pierce shops where I ask them an extensive list of questions, ask them about their recommendations, and they really don't treat their customers as people. Other pierce shops rush, don't explain things thoroughly, and don't give you advice for your best interest. I do my own research, but I don't know everything, so I liked how he was patient with me. He recommended me to take off my nose piercing and so I paid $10 for jewelry removal and then tip. He let me stay a few extra minutes after removal to ensure my nose piercing was ok. He said I can always Instagram DM them and they can help me look for a professional pierce shop that has proper certification in my town I'm moving to. This is above and beyond what other pierce shops have offered as a first time visit. I don't usually write reviews, let alone long reviews, but I really enjoyed my experience. Definitely felt like I was in professional, informed, and safe hands. Would come again and thanks Gill! read more

I don't object to a business restricting their practices due to COVID. But as of this writing I saw nothing on their website about COVID restrictions. Hiwever, when my wife emailed to simply ask if they were doing nose piercings she got a very snide, rude, and condescending reply. But don't take my word for it. You'll see something similar right here when someone else posed a question about septum piercings. You can state an opinion or policy without sounding like a jerk, but apparently this guy doesn't know how to communicate in a professional manner with would-be customers. And we don't need a lecture about the dangers of COVID either. You're entitled to your opinion, and you're also entitled to run a business, but you certainly won't be getting mine. And if this is any indication of how he treats people I'm amazed he has any customer or employees at all. The only reason I'm giving two stars instead of one is because we did have a halfway decent experience there a few years ago. But never again. read more

The holes in my ears had closed up and I learned from my daughter that a piercing studio could open up the old holes be getting a nearby piercing with a gun. I highly recommend Diablo Rojo. Quanyin was professional and caring. It was quick and painless. read more

My daughter wanted to have her helix pierced, so we went to South Lamar location which was super crowded on Saturday. There was nobody at the front desk (not sure if they even have "front desk" at that location), so we stepped outside and called them hoping to make an appointment for later that day or Sunday. Lady who answered the phone explained that they don't offer appointments and suggested we go to E Cesar Chavez location as it's usually less crowded. Once we arrived, Cesar Chavez location was much bigger, brighter, had plenty of comfortable seating while you waited. It had a lot of display cabinets for jewelry, so my daughter had fun picking out her new earring. The lady who pierced her ears was very personable and chatty. We filled out all the required paperwork, and I loved how thorough she was with explaining why they needed my ID and my daughters, and how laws worked. The room for piercing was spotless, and the whole procedure was quick (and mostly painless :). After-care instructions were given at the end during check out, and it really ensured we remembered all the details (we were too excited and worried before/during piercing). Overall, great experience! read more

Best piercing experience ever. There was a little bit of a wait but it was worth it for caring and knowledgeable piercers. I won't trust anyone else ‍ read more

I came here with a friend of mine to get her a second ear piercing. Gill was super helpful and knowledgeable. He helped figure out placement, not just was looked good but how it would hang and space out with current and future piercings. He was patient while we figured out jewelry and calm during the whole piercing process. He talked through every step BEFORE it happened, and gave plenty of time to prep. It really put my friend at ease. I have a handful of piercings and have been to piercing studios where I've felt rushed and unprepared. Gill was personable and professional and I will absolutely be coming back to get my own piercings done here. read more

Was on vacation with a friend in Austin and decided we wanted to spontaneously get a piercing. I found this studio on Yelp and was so glad I did. The whole system that is set up for appointments is fantastic and I felt beyond safe even with Covid numbers climbing. The place was clean, the piercer (I forgot his name) explained everything in detail and talked through the process which was nice. It was only me and my friend allowed in for our appointment until the next one on the waitlist was called. We had to wear a mask unless fully vaccinated and showed proof. Which I appreciated (coming from a state that doesn't care!) knowing that I was as safe as possible and these standards were company wide. If you are looking for a place for a piercing I recommend here! They know what they are doing and go above and beyond to give you the best experience ever. read more

Wow. The owner/ manager Phill or Phillip is an asshole. Before you know it they will have 3 stars and continue down if they keep up with having ZERO people skills. Like are you so hard up for cash that you can't fix your mistake. Went to exchange my plugs since they were 2 diff sizes he measured them and decide they were only off 0.5 and then berated me on how .5 was a minuscule difference ya 1/4 of a size off is tiny especially when you are dealing with your ears. Give me a break read more

Love my piercing I got yesterday at Diablo! Going back for future piercings and jewelry! 1) thank you for taking COVID seriously! Always wipe downs and only person at a time! 2) so professional and polite! 3) shout out to Mike for doing such a great job he is so friendly and has great bedside manners so to speak:) letting me know when to breath, what to expect etc. I got the industrial piercing. Titanium earring best for healing and the spray to help with the healing process Thank you!!! read more
