    Industrial too shallow

    Went to their new location on J street while they were having a sale. Store was definitely in its beginning stages but clean enough. I'd looked at some pics of reviews and saw some well done industrial piercings so I opted for one. Unfortunately he didn't tell me WHEN he was gonna pierce my ear so I wasn't prepared. Pain was quite a lot and I almost fainted but wasn't allowed to lie in a recovery position to get blood back to my head. Cut to an hour later at home and I noticed the piercing was WAY too shallow, so I removed it. It's a damn shame because it seems like this place has mostly positive experiences. I messaged the owner for a refund but never got a response. I expected and should have gotten better. Kept it two stars because it seems like they were probably just having an off day, and they fit me in on a tight schedule.

    I was looking to get a few piercings and wanted I place with the highest ratings. Yelp sent me straight to IICON piercing in Carmichael. Which is perfect since it right in my town. It was a little a little difficult to make an appointment since there is no website posted and it's appointment only. I tried calling for a little over a week and no one would answer the phone and finally a lady answered. I check to see if they had any same day appointments, but they didn't and she said she had to send me a link to book an appointment. The link sends you to book an appointment in which you pick the piercing service you want for each service you must put down a partial non refundable deposit for the time you book ad they are reserving that time slot just for you based on the service (s) you need. This place must be a popular place to go to for piercings because they were 2 weeks out for that next available appointment. I arrived a little early in case I needed to fill out and liability paperwork. I waited a few minutes before being greeted. The lady came out the back about 10 mins into my appointment time. I wanted to go over the jewelry I wanted instead of the surgical stainless steel jewelry. They have 14K jewelry and titanium and I forgot the other metal. I originally 14k jewelry but they only had yellow gold and I preferred white gold, but they didn't have it for the piercings I was getting. The piercings I got was the spider bite, Monroe and tongue. The jewelry I went with is Titanium jewelry instead. They gave me a nice discount for the amount of piercings and jewelry pieces I got. They are a little higher than other places that do piercings, but I'd leather pay for quality over quantity. The gentleman who did my piercings I forgot his name, but he was very patient with me with the area I wanted pierce. Allowed me to take my time with the positioning on the piercings until I was satisfied. He went through the process with my and recommended products to use to prevent infections and proper healing. I was told to come back in a week to make sure my piercings are healing nicely no extra charge for that and to downsize the jewelry if needed. I highly recommend coming here if you want a clean quality place to get your piercings. I will definitely be back if I decide to get more piercings.

    Beautiful and clean shop. Wonderful selection of finer jewelry. Corey has a great bedside manner. He's very knowledgeable and really skilled at what he does every piercer should take a master class or do whatever training program that he did because between his skill set, his knowledge set and him maintaining and furthering his education in body modification he is the pinnacle!

    My daughter has wanted to get her nose pierced for so long and finally gave in. They were waiting for a shipment of nose rings so the selection was limited. She went with a 14k gold star and it was perfect! The piercing itself is $40, you choose your nose ring and can purchase the saline solution there. We were the first customers of the day. The place is extremely clean! They were friendly, informative, and made you feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend getting piercings done here.

    I came here last Tuesday to get my nose pierced, everything looks good ,the shop really clean, The service was very good, the people were very nice, I forgot to ask her name, The person who pierced my nose is called Corey. He is very professional. I recommend this shop and I will come again. Thank you for your service.

    Cannot recommend this place enough. My group of friends and I decided we all wanted to get our ears (and nose) pierced. Making an appointment online was super easy and they were really good about texting us reminders and we were able to do all our consent forms online via text ahead of time. We were greeted immediately upon arrival and given options on which earrings we wanted. Our whole group was then offered chairs at the piercing station to be there for each other (no videos, photos only before and after, and stay seated as to not get in the way of the piercer). Nice and safe protocols, extremely clean and sanitary! Corey, the owner and amazing piercer extraordinaire was the one who did our piercings for us. His calming nature made everything so much more easy and bearable (I'm extremely afraid of needles). He marks the area first to make sure you're satisfied with your piercing and the entire process was a BREEZE. I am extremely happy with how it turned out!! After care instructions were given and you can purchase the saline spray on site. They have a lifetime guarantee on all their jewelry, just bring it in with your digital receipt. I can't say I would ever get another piercing (only because I'm a scaredy cat) but if somehow I ever got the courage to go again, I would go no other place than here! Thanks Corey and team!

    I figured that as an adult I could finally get my ears pierced. Well, let's just say that I did have them pierced as a teenager but then they got infected, blah blah blah and before I knew it, my days of wearing earrings were over. So fast forward 30 years later and I was tired of coveting the lobes of my peers. I looked up via Yelp local spots that had a good reputation, made an appointment through their booking system and brought my daughter for moral support. I don't know what kind of piercing system they use - I'm squeamish 'kay? It's not your mall gun piercing system. Corey spent a long time trying to figure out the best placement to pierce my ears and once that was made, I reclined in their comfy chair and got them pierced. You can upgrade your studs to something larger (these were Swarovski crystal), which I did, for $10. They also use titanium metal so there is no risk of getting an adverse reaction. To help with the healing process, you can purchase a spray bottle of saline solution and there are other various body piercing jewelry you can buy as well. It turns out I have sensitive ears - or as my ex would put it, I have expensive taste. Thankfully titanium is not as expensive as gold! My ears did get infected when I tried to put in new earrings after two months. I was able to make an appointment and they took out the old earrings and put in the studs again. I am a newbie at having pierced ears so I appreciated the extra service! They also sell Delta-8 gummies which are very effective! Takes the edge off for sure. If you check in on Yelp, you also get $5 off.

    I went to my second Friday the 13th event at Pierced Hearts in February (June '25, February '26)…read moreand got my left tragus done. Both gold and silver jewelry are available, with a variety of prices ranging from $30 to +$100. Friday the 13th events are always very busy, because the piercing service and jewelry is on sale. The line moved slow, which is to be expected, and I was seen around 12:30 inside to fill out forms, pay for the jewelry and service, and was told to expect about an hour wait. I left the shop (they do call you when it is getting close to your turn, so leaving is no problem) and went to enjoy other local midtown businesses. Unfortunately, the wait was closer to three hours. I went back to the shop around 2:30 to check on wait time, and was told about another half hour. Friday the 13th events are always busy, but having a more accurate estimation of wait times would have been helpful. I talked with the ladies who had been in front of me in line earlier, who had been called and were waiting for their piercings when I went in at 2:30, and expressed frustration around the incorrect wait times. The piercing service itself was done very well. She had a calm demeanor and was very knowledgeable. The shop was very clean, and the piercing was done quickly. However, only having one piercer on staff for an event does make for long wait times, so transparency about time estimates would have been helpful.
