I found Tatianna's tiny tattoos off on TikTok and decided to go here since it's not too far, pricing is good, and the booking process was easy. The location is easy to find, near the Apple store. Parking downtown is a bit rough but I was able to find free 2 hour downtown parking only a block or two away, there is also parking in front of the store if you're lucky. The studio is clean and spacious, and the front staff are very friendly and expressive. The binder for tiny tattoos was about 50+ pages so you'll definitely find something you'll like. You'll also fill out a brief form on your phone through a qr code, which is normal for piercings or tattoos. For payment, it's cashless. Tatianna and her apprentice Jasmine were very nice. Tatianna was receptive about placement, color, and sizing of the tattoo. I mentioned worries about red ink (fading, itchiness) and she shared her story regarding her personal tattoo. It was my first time getting inked so I was naturally very nervous, but Tatianna was vocal about what steps she was going through and mentioned I can tell her if I need a break or giving me a test run of how the needle feels. As Tatianna was teaching Jasmine about stencil placement and shading, I was learning a little bit myself too which is cool. Tatianna was thorough about aftercare and even helped me take photos of the tattoo through my phone which I appreciate a lot. Although I felt a bit awkward and sat like a rock, I would go through the experience again haha. Thank you again Tatianna and Jasmine, and thank you for making my 1st tattoo experience a good one. read more

I had a great experience. My friend made reservations for us to get our tattoo. They had the Black Friday deal $60 up to 2 inches. The vibe was it, chill music. Service was fantastic. I would definitely come back to get more ink done and I'm from San Jose. Parking can be challenging. We had a friend to drive us so he was able to find parking while we got settled.

I brought my 12 year old to get her ears pierced for the first time. I paid several hundred dollars for the earrings and piercing. After a couple weeks one gold earring became detached (while in her ear) and they refused to replace it. Do not go there. The manager was rude and did not accept responsibility. read more

I originally scheduled my appointment a few weeks ago at the SF location. I could have gotten my piercing there, but there was only 1 jewelry option for the Daith. Seeing as I would be stuck with the jewelry until it was healed, I wanted something with more bling. So, I was rescheduled to have it done in Burlingame. Fast forward to today. The farmers market is happening on their street, so I had to park a block away. It's also VERY BUSY in the area with all the food places being packed. So, keep that in mind when you schedule an appointment on Sunday. They also close at 3pm. I enter the shop and I am greeted by 2 young ladies and a lot of jewelry options. They have me fill out paperwork, and I look around, pick my jewelry, then we move upstairs to the chair. I sit down, she tells me about the after care. Shows me what it would look like with me holding a mirror. Hands me a stress ball. We're talking, "are you ready?" I say "yeah". And she is piercing my Daith. I feel pressure. I measure it as a 1-2 out of 10 on the pain scale. As I'm writing this, it's been 8 hours. No throbbing, no pain. The whole procedure was quick. Everyone there was super nice. Enthusiastic about me getting my Daith pierced. They didn't try to upsell more piercings or jewelry. What I asked for is what I got. I would give a 4.5, but I've rounded up because I can't give half points. Here is what I would have liked. Maybe a little bit of an explanation of the procedure. While I have obviously been pierced before, it would have been nice to have been offered to be more mentally prepared with step by step of how everything would go, and also along the way. If I decide to get more piercing, I would definitely come back. read more

Went for a jewelry cleaning for my nose ring- they had me sign a consent form to allow them to handle my jewelry etc but had me sign the "I confirm I received my jewelry back intact" part before we even started the service (I pointed this out and the receptionist (?) was like yes sign again here just to confirm). The piercer was very sweet but really struggled to get my nose ring out. She used tools and then asked for help from someone else. Overall took like 40 min and had trouble getting it back in too. When I got home I inspected more closely and the nose ring was completely bent out of shape - the seams didn't even match up anymore. When I went to another place to try and fix it that piercer showed me there was scuff marks/dings on the nose ring (in addition to it being bent out of shape) from the tools they used. They are nice and it's a cute shop but I would be wary about piercings here. read more

About a month ago I visited Eleven & Lux and got what I honestly think might be my favorite tattoo I've ever gotten. It's a tiny tattoo of my daughter's handprints holding my hand so I can always remember just how small her hand was when we'd walk across the street or hold hands together. It's such a special memory for me, and they captured it perfectly. The entire experience was amazing from the moment we walked in. The staff at Eleven & Lux are some of the most friendly, upbeat, "instant best friend" type of people. They make you feel so welcomed and comfortable right away. The shop itself is adorable, has the best vibe, and as a bonus... it smells amazing in there! I'm already looking forward to scheduling my next mini tattoo. Whether you're going with your girls, your mom, or just treating yourself, this is absolutely the place to go for jewelry and mini tattoos. I can't recommend them enough! read more

I got my third lobe piercings by Mattea last Sunday after stopping by the store the day before. I love the aesthetic and the staff seemed cool. Mattea gave me insight on their earring options. She then took me to the piercing station and explained the procedure, gave me a stress ball, counted to 3, and had me take a deep breath at the exact perfect moment. My ears hurt but the process was smooth and I felt really comfortable. She hit the marks she made (and made sure I approved of them beforehand) to ensure even spacing with my other piercings. My ears are healing well so far. I recommend coming here! read more

Got my nose ring replaced. Staff is very friendly and informative. I didn't get pierced there but they have for sure helped my piercing heal. The quality of the jewelry is worth the price. And everyone is chill and welcoming read more

Decent selection of jewelry and services. I was satisfied with my new piercing and tooth gems. However, my experience was overshadowed by an uncomfortable interaction with the older woman wearing glasses who works there. When I was about to pay, there was a long line extending to the door so I naturally walked to the end of it. As I was doing so, she said out loud "Excuse me, you're going to have to pay" in front of everyone. It definitely felt accusatory and implied I was trying to leave. I firmly explained that I was simply getting in line. When I eventually reached the register, her tone completely changed and she acted as if nothing happened. After all that, I won't be coming back. read more

I got my first one and the experience here convinced me that it won't be my last. Vern has a chill vibe, which helped relax me---he was honest when I asked about the pain instead of falsely reassuring me. He had a couple of labubus in his station which I pointed out and he said, "Not claiming that!" It would've been cool though to have this big dude all tatted up with full sleeves with his labubus proudly displayed. This place also does permanent jewelry and piercings, which will be my next badge of middle age honor. read more

2/18/24 Eleven + Luxe is a super cute boutique ear piercing and tattoo spot in downtown Burlingame. The store is bright inside with big windows and the staff I have encountered are all friendly and welcoming. I was helped by Gabby for ear piercing. I had my ears pierced back in high school at Claire's, but my ears got infected. I researched about ear piercing methods (gun vs sterile needle) and Eleven + Luxe uses sterile needles, which appealed to me more because I didn't want to get infected ears and I was used to sterile needles from my tattoos. Day of the ear piercing, I was helped by Gabby. She is a lovely person who chatted me up the entire time which helped with my anxiety. I have no fear of tattoo needles, but imagining the needle going through the ears still gave me the heebie jeebies. She donned on sterile gloves and open the sterile needles from sterile packaging. She also gave me two stress balls to squeeze during the (mostly) painless piercing. After it was done, Gabby gave me an aftercare kit that contained a small saline spray bottle and a paper with dos and don'ts. My only comment is that the saline spray bottle is very, very delicate. The next day, I accidentally dropped the bottle from the bathroom counter and it completely shattered. _____________________________________________ I came back to Eleven + Luxe about a month or two ago for a flash tattoo sale they were having. I forgot the name of the female tattoo artist that I met with, but she was super sweet and cordial. I got the star alignment for my horoscope, Sagittarius. It's my first dainty tattoo and I love it. So far my experiences at Eleven + Luxe have both been great. Looking forward to my next visit :) read more

I ended up blowing 249$ that I can't get back, just for me to end up at the ER almost about to loose my ear. The piercing hurt? Imagine having 4 nurses yanking jewelry out your swollen ear because it's so swollen it's causing you an infection and pain. Trust me I've had multiple piercings and never did I get an infection before I cleaned them and followed the rules. btw I'm writing this from the ER because piercing facilities like this should educate there clientele a lot more. read more

I went here last month to get my nose pierced. The studio is clean. Service is impersonal. They did not provide any assist with where to pierce so best to know what/where you want exactly. The piercing was done in ~10 mins and they provided a stress ball. read more

I have a good amount of piercings (18) and either go to an establishment in SF or SJ when I want a new piercing or jewelry. This place is clean and on the peninsula, so I went to go get a jewelry change. They didn't have the correct instruments and it was the most painful thing as I waited for my piercer to figure out what she was doing. I brought my sister here after and she also had a poor experience with the piercer. The piercers do whatever you want, but don't have the experimental judgement to say some piercings won't heal well/not enough space/what jewelry is appropriate. I wasn't going to write a poor review, but on my first visit I bought a "opal" hoop for my daith (just a jewelry change). A few months later, I'm itching my ear, and a sticker falls off from my piercing. What I thought was an opal was just a glitter sticker!! I messaged them on instagram and they said it was past warranty - the issue is it's false advertising! So I went in person to show them the sticker, and they said it looked like another piece fell off - yes, more plastic - and insisted it was opal. Maybe they really think it's opal cause that's what their dealer is telling them, but if you listen to the customer, you'll see this is just plastic stuck on. On the images, you can see how the circle indents match the sticker and the jewelry piece. Their jewelry is cheap, their piercers have little experience, and I would not recommend this place. read more

I can't say enough good things about Eleven + Luxe! I've had my coveted (and admittedly painful) daith piercing fall out twice, and both times I called in a total panic, afraid the hole would close overnight. Each time, they immediately fit me in without hesitation. Veronica was incredibly kind, calm, and professional. She used her special tool to reinsert the jewelry--quickly and painlessly--and made the whole experience feel more like I was being cared for by a healthcare professional than at a piercing studio. Her experience and gentle manner made all the difference. To top it all off, she didn't even charge me, which is practically unheard of in the Bay Area. It was such a generous gesture and shows how much they truly care about their clients. The space itself is stunning, filled with beautiful, high-quality jewelry, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Eleven and Luxe--especially over the typical underground tattoo shop experience. This place is the real deal. read more

I was looking for a place to fix my permanent bracelet, and I came across Eleven+Luxe! They were not only able to fix my bracelet at a super reasonable price, but they were also able to make my other, non-permanent bracelet, into a permanent one by removing the clasp and welding it together. This was great because the clasp was loose and kept falling off. This shop is so cute and it's a family business with the kindest folks! Definitely check this place out. read more

At 61 I finally had my ears double pierced. Sabrina was great. she explained the process took care to make sure I was comfortable and within minutes it was done. There was minimal pain and 4 days later I have had zero pain or swelling. Everything was very clean and hygienic. I would definitely recommend their services for piercings over a place that uses a piercing gun. read more

**if not for my experience in the days following I would absolutely give 5 stars. All employees were so nice and respectful, and the shop has a very comfortable environment. I got three tattoos in one session early August and all three need touchups. I realize this is very common with new tattoos, but I have never needed a touchup this soon as my skin takes ink extremely well. My smallest piece was a heart shaped freckle that was supposed to be brown but ended up healing black. I have another brown tattoo that didn't have this problem. I was also advised to keep the saniderm on for three days, and on day three when I removed the wrap on the freckle, I noticed that it had become infected and there was a hole forming in the center. Despite my experience I would also like to add that my friend was pierced here the day before and has had a great healing process. She was also tattooed the same day I was and never had any issues. read more

I've been to this place a few times now and overall I think it's my go to for piercings. I've never had any healing issues. It's very esthetic and welcoming. Staff is also super knowledgeable and nice. read more

Over-priced and not-secure/easy-to-lose earrings. Poor customer service with regards to fit. They're selling gold-filled flatbacks for $55-70 that are very similar to stuff you can find online for $40. (e.g., see the brand Studs, I have no affiliation but just looked them up for price comparison) They also sell a lot of push-pin flatbacks, which imo are not great for new piercings because they are so easy to lose: if your hair catches on the earring the pin can get pulled out. (I didn't get pierced here but did buy an earring that I lost within a week, probably because I bumped it in my sleep.) The piercing shops I've been to before used screwbacks, which are much better for earrings that you don't plan to change immediately. A couple of weeks after my earring from here fell out, I ended up getting a pair of screwback studs from Maria Tash, which were much more expensive but I think it's better value to buy $600 gold earrings that will last for decades vs $140 gold-filled earrings that will last a week. From my experience at Maria Tash, I also think Eleven let me buy earrings with an inappropriate post length--MT proactively brought up post length and sized me at 6.5mm but Eleven let me buy 8mm (I think that might have been the only size they had in that style, and I guess they decided it would be fine to sell me something that didn't fit) read more

Absolutely loved my experience at Eleven + Luxe today! I went in to get a permanent bracelet and ended up with two because the selection was just too good to resist. The two ladies who helped me were incredibly sweet and made the whole process so fun and easy. I felt super comfortable, and they really took their time to make sure everything was perfect. The jewelry is beautiful, and I can't wait to go back for more! Looks like I'm "linked for life" now - and I couldn't be happier about it! read more

New favorite piercing spot!! Everyone that works here is beyond kind, accommodating, and skilled. I stopped by today for the first time and not only do they have a ton of talented people working there, but they went out of their way to squeeze me in with short notice. The spot is beautifully decorated, warm, and inviting, and I can't wait to come back and get my next piercing here. They also have a beautiful selection of jewelry to choose from. I've been to a lot of piercing shops in my life and this was by far the best experience I've had thus far. Thanks for the phenomenal service! read more

Walked-in for 2x third lobe piercings and they took me in right away! All the staff is very friendly and kind. Jewelry options were really cute too. I went for the solid gold option with a flat back so it was on the pricier side. It was very female friendly here, definitely a much different experience than going to a regular tattoo and piercing parlor. Isabella walked me through it all and made sure placement was exactly how I wanted it. I plan on getting two flat piercings in May, so I'm looking forward to coming back! read more

I recommend this business for multiple reasons. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure you leave pleased and happy with what you paid for. I went in to Eleven and Luxe to get my first piercing ever, being very nervous. When I went inside I was immediately welcomed with amazing staff ready to answer any questions I had. Before being pierced, the staff made sure I was set on the placement and jewlery, making many of my concerns go away. After being pierced the staff made sure I was educated on the aftercare with my piercing. I left Eleven and Luxe being very happy with my piercing. I have recommended all my friends and family to go here, which some have and had an amazing experience. If you are looking to get a piercing I recommend Eleven and Luxe due to their amazing staff, work, and their cozy and comfortable environment! read more

Needed to pierce my left ear lobe twice, because the piercer did not mark my ears the first time and they came out uneven. (Even Claire's have a better process.) Also, this place does not provide after-care advice. The owner does not reply to emails although the receptionist said she will let the owner know I called. read more

Most amazing staff and owners! Professionals who know exactly what they're doing and are very knowledgeable.

Walking into Eleven + Luxe is like a breath of fresh air, and the entire staff is happy to see you. Seriously, so cute. I got permanent jewelry with my best friend of 10 years and couldn't be happier with the experience, top to bottom. Had great conversation with the welder (who is a goddess, btw!). Highly recommend, and will be back! read more

Had my ear pierced here some time back (two piercings and a third piece of jewelry purchased for a previously pierced daith).
