I am updating this review to 4 stars based on the manager reaching out to me on Yelp to clear up the miscommunication!

this establishment is absolutely amazing! the individual that work there are really helpful and knowledgeable in their fields. I want to give a big shout out to evolve and all the artist that work there. thank you!! read more

I walked in with several piercing questions and this full-service shop was superior! From processing me as a walk-in to helping me determine whether my previous double helix piercing could be tapered to helping me select the most awesome handmade daith piercing, I can't say enough positive things about the amazing three people I interacted with while I was in the shop - Casey, Javier, and the wonderful person who welcomed me and got me set up (we didn't trade names but she's a very distinctive redhead!). This is a professional, kind, thoughtful group of people doing amazing work. And I LOVE having all my piercings back in play with gorgeous new jewelry! Thanks guys! read more

I took my daughter for a belly piercing. Nick, her piercer, was great - professional and personable! He took his time to explain the piercing process and aftercare to ensure understanding. He was extremely patient and answered all questions without any sign of frustration. My daughter felt at ease the entire time - she didn't express any signs of pain or discomfort. We are very pleased! Thanks, Nick! read more

This is a nice, clean space, and has easy street parking. I arrived when they opened at noon, and took advantage of their advertised free birthday piercing. So what would have been $60 was $30, plus $10 for the bottle of wound wash. Andrea at the counter was nice and helped us all (2 people ahead of me) timely. Sosa, my piercer, was friendly and did a good job. He explained the aftercare in addition to the pamphlet instructions. It was a good experience, and didn't take long at all. I recommend. read more

Fantastic place! Kind and educated staff. Would highly recommend. Could not say enough great things about this place. I will definitely be returning! read more

My best friend and I got matching tattoos done by Rob, and Javi did a jewelry change for me after. Both were extremely quick and seamless processes, and they went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. The shop itself is beautiful and clean, too. Whether you're a first timer or experienced, I highly recommend making your next appointment with them! read more

Nothing against the artists. I walked in and asked for a tattoo. I expected there to be a wait. The guy that I asked came out a few minutes later and explained it would be an hour and a half. I said that is no problem. I offered to give my number for a call or text if they were ready before or after... so no ones time was wasted. He instead responded in an extremely negative tone "we don't call anyone." I will not take my business to place where I do not connect with the person who is putting something on me for life. For the record my father died in February and I came in on Father's Day to get memorial in his honor. This has been an emotional day only to be tarnished by one of the employees read more

I'm not one to review but I think it when it comes to putting a hole in your body, you should know what you're getting yourself into. I came in on my birthday because I had been referred to Evolved by several friends. After further research I found out they do the piercings free if you go on your birthday, you only have to pay for the jewelry itself. Knowing that I made sure to schedule it that day. When I got there I was greeted politely by the receptionist (who is lovely). I then went to talk to another person who showed me my options. However, it seemed scammy because after multiple times asking how much the stud would be I was never given a straight answer. I get into the piercing room after a short wait and the piercer was a little short with me at first but warmed up quickly after recognizing me from my workplace. I asked him how much it would cost and he also couldn't tell me. It wasn't until I got to the register that I was told an actual price which was way more than I had expected to pay that day. All in all, the experience wasn't horrible, the piercing looks great and is healing just fine. But I don't think I will go back for my next one. read more

Incredible, accommodating and professional staff. Excellent policies in place regarding client and employee safety. Stunning, high quality, unique jewelry options. This is an impeccable APP studio with regard to piercings. Awesome tattoo artists as well. Nick the owner is an amazing and beautiful soul. read more

They are really out here selling Claire's level jewelry for $45 Lots of the staff take you to the most expensive jewelry and try and tell you why the cheaper ones aren't good. It didn't really make sense. read more

I took my 8 yo daughter in to get her ears pierced & we were so happy with the experience. The Summit St location check in process was smooth and the wait was minimal. Store is extremely clean. Brody pierced her ears and was amazing. He walked her through the whole process and she didn't cry or even need to hold my hand. Cannot recommend him enough! read more

I have gotten many piercings at Evolved but my favorites were recently by Nick Wolak. Nick pierced my septum and frenulum and replaced my stud with a hoop. He made everything so easy and comfortable. I never give level of pain reviews because pain tolerance is different for each individual. Mine was very tolerable. Nick is very thorough explaining what he is doing and why. As always, aftercare instructions are provided. The shop is amazing and super clean and all sterilization procedures are followed. Nick and his staff helped me pick out the perfect jewelry. All the staff are super helpful and friendly. A perfect piercing by Nick and I will definitely be returning. I also have many piercings by Jared. He is professional, kind, and thorough. I recommend him highly. I am handicapped and he is always helpful and understanding, as is all of the staff. I would never go anywhere else for a piercing. read more

Just got a tattoo from Anna today. It looks amazing. You'll have to come in for a consult before hand and then pay a $50 deposit. So if you're traveling to Columbus for a tattoo make sure you know that you'll have to travel twice. Everyone at the shop is very friendly and professional. Anna made sure everything was clean and sanitary during the whole process. I love how my tattoo turned out. I also got some jewelry for my nose rings while I was there. They have high quality jewelry (I got 14k rose gold) that is good for sensitive skin. They also put it in for free! Would recommend this shop to anyone. read more

The team at Evolved Body Art are professional and friendly. The environment is clean and spacious. My piercer Javier was awesome! He walks you through each step of the process and makes sure you see how meticulous he is with the cleanliness of his approach to preparing your ears and his workspace. Very safe, very friendly and very professional. Great experience and I will return for another ear piercing! read more

I can't say enough good things about Luka, their service, and art they did for me. We did multiple consultations for a piece that honestly isn't huge, or incredibly lucrative - but Luka took a ton of their time to make sure they got all the details correct and that it had everything that I had wanted. The lines are incredibly crisp, the detail is nearly surreal, and the shading another level - I've been stopped and asked about it multiple times in the week since getting it. read more

Went on a spontaneous whim with a good friend of mine. Luckily they were taking walk ins that day. They had the artist, Matt, ready within mins. The atmosphere of the shop was comfortable yet elegant. They also sell a wide variety of body piercings that appeared to be high quality. Overall the experience was great and I am very pleased with the work. Again the artist was Matt Barnett. Also I recieved 2 laptop stickers from the shop. read more

Evolved Body Art - Costs 85 - shop minimum. Pleased with the line work and the details. Took about 15 mins to complete due to the simplicity - Piercing Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Love the staff at Evolved because they are always clean, organized, and professional. I would recommend making an appointment ahead of time but if you don't mind waiting to be pierced the lobby is marked out for social distancing. They have multiple air filters throughout the place and masks are mandatory upon entry. Been pierced and tattooed here a couple time both prior and during COVID. Will definitely be back for body jewelry! read more

My nine year old wanted her ears pierced but was very, very nervous. Everyone at Evolved was so patient and kind to us and she had a great experience! They were even able to offer her the option of having both ear lobes done at the same time, which she gladly took them up on. Very clean, very thorough, very professional. Would absolutely patronize this business again. Thank you Katie, Sandroni, and Mikkie especially. read more

I had such a good experience at Evolved. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helped me feel comfortable from the start. They accommodated myself and 2 other friends getting pierced together and made it a fun experience. We had Megan as our piercer and she was wonderful. She explained everything she was doing, was very helpful with our questions and concerns, and prepared us for aftercare. If I get need another piercing, I'll be returning and asking for Megan! read more

I started emailing Evolved a couple of days ago about a tattoo I wanted in tribute to my brother who suddenly passed away. They were very kind and got me in for a consultation. As it happened, my artists next appointment canceled, so I went ahead and got the tattoo! It's amazing! Darius did a stellar job, and was a completely cool dude! Thank you for making my heart happy! read more

See all

I got my first helix piercing here by Sosa; he was absolutely amazing! I was sort of leaning toward getting the piercing on my right side and just forcing myself to sleep on my left, but then he explained how the piercing could be bent onto an angle if I accidentally end up sleeping on it - I'm super glad he said that, because I had no idea! I just figured it would be kind of uncomfortable. Another thing that was super professional and smart was as he marked the placement for where it would be, he stopped and had me put on my sunglasses to see if they would hit the new piercing. I was lowkey blown away, because again, I never would've thought of that. The piercing sits in the perfect spot! My sunglasses, which I wore all day, never bothered me once. Major props to Sosa and the whole Evolved gang! The shop was gorgeous, clean, and everyone was extremely knowledgeable about anything I asked. The best part of all? Thanks to Sosa, it didn't even really hurt. The piercing itself didn't hurt, and there was just a slight ache afterwards. Even now, about twelve hours later, I'm not really feeling anything at all. I've bumped it a few times, which made it ache a bit, but overall I don't even notice it. (But it's early... let's hope it stays this way. ) ANYWAY, in all, total 11/10. Would recommend. They rock. My new go-to whenever I'm in the area for any piercings! read more

Came in on a whim for a free birthday piercing! I knew I was looking for a piercing similar to a rook I already have, but didn't want both ears to look identical. The front desk was very helpful with informing me of the different options for piercing on the ear, and also sizing/looks of the choices of hoops. I selected a daith piercing, and had a very short wait. Mike brought me back to a very clean room, and informed me of the process, step by step. Mike made me feel very comfortable and well-informed! After piercing, he was thorough with aftercare instructions, and answered all questions I had. Great experience, and great staff who are thorough, clear, and welcoming! read more

Evolved Body Art - Daith Piercing - Piercing Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Today was my first time at this location and it blew my mind! What a neat waiting room! It's huge, it smells good, and the jewelry selection was amazing! Anyway, the front desk staff was super nice and got me set up right away. I wanted to get my septum pierced. Amanda was the artist that pierced me and she was outstanding! She made me feel comfortable and reassured me (I was probably a little annoying with my nerves). The pricing itself was crazy! She did it and that was that! It was over before it started. It looks amazing, it feels amazing, and I will be coming back! It's worth it. Ask for Amanda! Update! I just had a tattoo done by Chris, at the Summit location. Again, my experience was wonderful. read more

Whoever is answering the phones at the summit location is rude af and sucks at their job.

It's been awhile but I'm just about to go get my tattoo redone. I was under 18 at the time and only one person there could tattoo minors. He seemed high on something, but I was with my mom and we both unfortunately ignored it. My tattoo has a huge awkward space in between the words. About a week later I noticed one of the E's looked like a literal scar and had no ink. I went back and he said 'oh haha I mustve forgotten to dip it into the ink.' He went back into my fresh scarred tattoo with more ink. Now everything is awkwardly placed and discolored. It's also slightly raised.... After that I told myself to not go back for tattoos. A few years later I finally went back ,this time for a piercing. I already had doubles but the second hole had already closed. I mentioned this many times..... The girl literally repierced my already open first holes. It was probably a communication error but as a professional piercer I feel like you should be able to tell the difference between open and closed holes. I noticed they were too close multiple times and asked them to be moved but they still overlapped. I went back later that day after I tried squeezing both earrings in to show what I meant. They let me keep the initial $50 teeny tiny earrings as an apology. Everyone was super nice but every time I go in,something goes wrong. Edit: I don't think the person who did my first tattoo still works there. read more

Evolved is a very well kept shop with a great environment. Sydney is in the process of creating this lovely masterpiece that shall be my sleeve and I love her! Her work speaks for itself and she is awesome to work with. I was there for a few hours and it didn't even feel like it! Other artist would come in and show their work or stop to see what we were up to and it was just awesome. I absolutely recommend every one come to this shop and see Sydney or the other artist (Travis and Marco to name a few)! You will be very pleased! read more

Let me just say that what they do for the Pelotonia crowd is outstanding. I have never in my life thought of getting a tattoo, unless it was something that means the world to me, and Pelotonia is one of those things. Last August I signed up and received a free "Arrow" tattoo while at the kick-off event. Fast forward to this spring and I'm starting to get an "itch" for a second one (a road bike since it's my passion for health and cancer research). I reached out via email and explained what I was considering, told them what and where, and sent them a few "idea" images but ultimately wanted something unique/specific. I was set up with an artist (Mikolaj) and within 24 hours, through email, I was given a sketch of what I was looking for. I was amazed at how they took my words and picture ideas and made it into exactly what I was trying to explain. Mikolaj squeezed me in within a week and now I have a pretty badass new tattoo. Those folks over there were awesome! Thanks read more

I went in seeking an industrial. Sosa took the time to explain options and landed on a better choice. He is top notch - friendly, very knowledgeable, and truly cares about his clients. Highly recommended! read more

They were great! This was my first piercing and they were so kind and made me comfortable! My only complaint was the wait. We waited almost an hr before the first of us went back plus a good 20 between us. But beyond that no complaints read more

The piercers and front counter people were so friendly and helpful. They kept us well-informed and helped us choose our jewelry and answered all of our questions. My piercer, Mike, was so sweet and friendly. He made us comfortable and gave us all of our aftercare instructions before, during and after. He double and triple checked his work before the piercing and made sure I was relaxed before starting. It was a great and professional experience and every bit as reputable as I have heard. read more

Love this place!! I researched forever wanting to get my daith pierced, after careful consideration and debate I chose Evolved on N. High for the event. I'm so happy I did!! Nick was awesome!!

I'm super happy with my piercing and can't say enough great things about my experience with it!! Yay!!! read more
