I have been to Ollie the impaler twice now. Each time he took extra care to make sure my anatomy was right, the available jewelry was right, and that the piercing was done in the safest and most appropriate way possible. Even though I have many other piercings, he always takes time to go into detail about aftercare and things to look out for. Also a very calm and friendly vibe from both the piercer and the shop. Overall, I highly recommend, especially if you are nervous for a first time piercing! read more

Checked out Ollie The Impaler after discovering them online! They have such a cool name that I absolutely *had* to get pierced by them and I did! Got my second pair of lobes done with titanium and I 100% am coming back for more. From start to finish the whole experience was Incredibly transparent, friendly and comfortable vibes! Thanks Ollie!!!! Recommending you to all my friends and family :). read more

Ollie the Impaler is amazing! He walked me through my ear piercing options with patience and care. His training and experience made me feel comfortable. After care is so important to any piercing and based on my line of work, I had to go for a more traditional piercing than what I was considering. I went with two additional lobe piercings versus a cartilage option (there are soooo many different options for ear piercings and he went through all of it with me!!)! Overall, I felt like this was the best decision for me, based off the consultation with Ollie and I'm really happy with the results. This place passes all the vibe checks and I'd recommend Ollie without hesitation. 5 stars all around! read more

Ollie The Impaler - Third lobe piercing - Piercing Near Me - San Marcos, California

Highly recommend this dude if you're wanting a piercing. He's got a great personality and really knows what he's doing. He was very friendly and answered all my questions, even though I wasn't the one who got pierced. My friend was nervous and he was very patient with her, and was able to set her at ease. He very thoroughly explained the process to her and did the piercing without causing her any pain. He's also fair priced. He has a very clean space that is nicely decorated all around. Definitely a cool dude, while being very professional. read more

See all

Super welcoming and professional, Ollie is very helpful and informative! I will definitely be back for my next piercings. The whole shop is sterile, well organized, and has great ambience. Thank you Ollie! read more

Ollie was amazing with my daughter who is 13 and scared of needles. He walked her through everything and had such a calm reassuring demeanor. She felt very comfortable with him. Both my kids 13 and 10 got their ear lobes pierced and we had a good overall experience. Highly recommend! read more

Ollie The Impaler - My 10 year old's first ear piercing by Ollie - Piercing Near Me - San Marcos, California

Anazing experience! Super comfortable and he is VERY knowledgeable Will only go to him for my piercings from now on! 100/10! read more

Came in for a walk in and waited maybe 5 minutes. Dude was so chill and easy going, made the whole process super fast and easy! I got an industrial piercing and my friend got her nostril! Such easy piercings and Ollie was amazing! read more

Ollie is the best honestly. I've been coming to him for as long as I can remember but I would say YEARS. I came to his shop when I needed a piercing done (can't really remember which one) but he's always been trustworthy. The shop he's located in now is spacious and he shares the space with other tattoo artists; but his room is front and center to the entrance. I came here with a friend to get her industrial piercing years later and the process was quick & painless. I came back again asking him for help with reapplying a new septum jewelry that I had trouble putting in because I left my septum piercing out for a while. He asked appropriate questions about it to get more information and proceeded to help me get it through. He calmed me down during the process of what felt like I was stretching my septum hole again and checked up on me. The fact that he was able to help as a walk-in puts more of my trust in him. I wouldn't go to anyone else in North County, this is your guy for professional piercing! read more

Have gotten 7 piercings with this guys. He's gentle and explains everything. Super easy takes walk in. Will be going again this guy rocks

Oli was super welcoming, very efficient and through, he makes sure you get what you want. He may be a big dude but he's very pleasant to be around and I would trust him with any pericing. His prices are also very affordable and fair, your getting surgical steal and its way cheaper than I would of thought. My friend also went to him for a jewelry change after another pericer almost sent her to the ER and oli was very professional about it all. Please consider getting a pericing from Oli. read more

I had a great experience. Ollie was very patient with my questions and was a calming presence.

Ollie was the best! He had his setup organized and ready to go. Very clean and careful with all of the equipment.

I would definitely recommend! Thank you Ollie! read more

Ollie The Impaler - Rook piercing - Piercing Near Me - San Marcos, California

I highly recommend Ollie for piercing! He is kind, confident at what he does & has a good sense of humor. My teen daughter is really sensitive to pain & I chose him due to his great reviews, long term experience & focus on hygiene. He did such a great job that my daughter didn't even realize when he pierced her ear- there was no pain to her surprise. We are so glad we went to him for her second piercing. read more

Ollie was the best!! He was very informative and helped me salvage the piercings I'm currently healing.

Now that a full 90 days have passed since my daughter's last piercing she is all healed up and ready to re-pierce. Today we went back to Ollie to get her ears pierced correctly. From start to finish, he was gentle, patient, and kind to my (awkwardly nervous) kid. He kept her calm and happy, talked her through every step, and helped make sure her earrings were placed in just the right spot on each lobe. The piercing itself was quick and carefully done, with completely sterile tools, gloves, jewelry, and surfaces. After the piercing, Ollie took plenty of time to walk us through after care instructions and answered any questions we had. My daughter was all smiles with a lollipop and beautiful titanium earrings as we walked out. Thank you, Ollie, for a wonderful piercing experience for my sweet girl. I highly recommend him for ear piercings for any age kids. read more

such a great experience!! my friends and I came in and he was really well informed, explaining everything step super thoroughly. being in his care felt really comfortable and safe, thank you so much!! read more

Great job on my son's piercings. Very clean. Highly recommended! Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Hands down best experience with a piercer ever. I came in as a walk in to get my conch done. So many amazing jewelry options and the pricing was far better than other places. Ollie himself though is the reason I wont be going anywhere else ever again and why I wish I had gone here sooner. He is an extremely knowledgeable piercer with an intimate piercing environment. He takes his time to show you the jewelry as well as the benefits of each piercing and the extensive healing process. He debunked many of the false things said to me by other piercers where I have previously had painful piercings as well as not so great healing processes. With Ollie my conch was done so fast and I had zero pain. He also took a look at my other piercings that were acting up from other piercers! Overall 10/10 experience and I am never going to another piercer again. read more

Ollie was great! Showed me the placement of my piercings and explained what he would be doing before he proceeded to pierce. Absolutely painless! He's a pro!! I also appreciated how clean he keeps his work area. read more

Great service! Patient and communication was top notch. Highly recommend. Love the no crying sign!

Ollie was great! Got my lobes re-done after years of not having them. He was super nice and explained every step he was going to take. All the equipment was clean, and I appreciate having the choice between silver + gold jewelry as I'm a gold girlie. Will definitely be back for another read more

I was immediately greeted at the door and given a wait time for Ollie. During the appointment he was very thorough and patient with me. He was super careful and extremely professional the entire time. I even got after-care instructions, water and a snack to help me out. I highly recommend coming here for your next piercing. read more

I definitely recommend him %100, especially if it's your first time going to a piercer. read more

I recently had been looking to get a few piercings and had researched for a few days before finding Ollie. Immediately I was impressed with the extensive portfolio and decided to go in.

They explained everything I needed to know about what I wanted and was thorough in explaining the aftercare. I was definitely nervous and Ollie was great about making me comfortable and relaxed. They had a ton of Jewelry to choose from and in a variety of colors. The entire experience was super easy, and smooth. Ollie is EXCEPTIONAL.

Got my belly button pierced with Ollie - great experience! Ollie did a great job with explaining what was about to happen through the whole process, and with explaining the aftercare. The location is also great - clean, not too loud, and not too cramped, but still good tattoo/piercing parlor vibes :) read more

Ollie took incredible care of my family when we all went to get piercings for my daughter's birthday. He was prompt, professional, warm and friendly- but also SO informative and extremely skilled.

Ollie did not pierce me but instead fixed my messed up nipple piercings that the previous piercer at Locally Famous Tattoo did. He was so kind and respectful and was able to provide a solution to make them heal better, and even provided me new jewelry and a cleaning solution he created himself. I would 10/10 recommend him and will definitely be going back to get pierced by him soon. He definitely knows what he's doing! Very professional and knowledgeable. read more
