What a great experience! Joe is the nicest guy, experienced and super professional. I thought I needed a re-piercing of a long closed up ear piercing, but Joe took a look at it and miraculously opened up the hole and got the earring in! Success! Tell everyone you know about this place!! read more

From the welcoming atmosphere and thoughtfully curated décor to the calm, grounding interactions, this was the best first piercing experience I could have asked for. Joe's attention to detail, outstanding customer service, and practical approach truly set him apart. What other business out there has all 5 star reviews??!!! I can truly see why! So well deserved! Thanks Joe! read more

I got my industrial loved it we had to switch out the bar I was originally pierced with but that was not his fault I will upload a photo of after and now I will be going back to get my second third and helix on my other ear definitely recommend. read more

Make an appointment because Joe is running the shop solo right now so walk-in's won't always get to be helped. I made an appointment at 3 and stopped by early to see if he could squeeze me in. My flat piercing got angry overnight and I was in town so went to this shop to get a longer post swapped for my flat. He was able to quickly swap out my post for a slightly longer one and immediately my ear got less angry/red. It was only $20 for the post. But then I shopped his jewelry selection, and the earrings are really well displayed and bright! I ended up buying an earring for my conch, and he was able to also squeeze me in to change my earring for me between appointments. If he has a full day of appointments, expect to wait (or come back another day) but if you wait, there's a small chance he can squeeze you in, depending on what you need and what his appointments are having done. Highly recommend looking at his earring selection (beautiful gold pieces) but they have gold prices...so also expect to pay if you buy any earrings. He didn't pierce me. But when he did my flat post swap, he was very careful and surprisingly it didn't hurt like I expected it to. For my conch earring swap, it was a little uncomfortable but he was also very careful to make sure the earring was on nice and tight. I would recommend this shop and Joe! read more

My sister lost one of the ends of her septum piercing piece. We stopped by to see if they'd have the availability to give her a new piece. The person working was super friendly and welcoming. He immediately took us to the back and fixed her piercing. The space is very clean and modern. My sister was super happy with the service she received! read more

Petaluma Piercing Company - Piercing Near Me - Petaluma, California

I received excellent service from the owner! I explained my problem of losing high end jewelry from my piercings in my ears from my local piercing shop. He knew the reason my jewelry wasn't staying in. I purchased two pieces from him and he put them in my tragus and said if I lose them he will replace them, that is how confident he is about them staying in. If you go anywhere for piercings make sure they are experienced in what they are doing! read more

Had a fabulous experience at Petaluma Piercing today! Joe, the owner, attended to me personally and came up with a great solution to the problem I was having with an old piercing. Very friendly, attentive and experienced. Communication before, during and after was all excellent. Highly recommend Petaluma Piercing! read more

Walked in with a closed up nose ring hole and my old jewelry, then I was out in minutes, good as new. I was in an accident six months ago and all of my jewelry was removed at the hospital. My recovery was slow, but now I'm lifting weights, riding my bike, and -now- wearing all of my jewelry! Feeling like myself again, Thanks for the skillful piercing! read more

Petaluma Piercing Company - Nose re-piercing - Piercing Near Me - Petaluma, California

Love Joe. Got multiple piercings from me. He has put in a nose ring for me multiple times after they have fallen out. Everything has healed so nicely and he always tries to help as many people as possible. I come up from SF to get my piercings done by him. 15/10 recommend read more

There is no better place to get pierced or buy jewelry in Sonoma County, truly. This shop sources high quality pieces and genuinely knows their stuff. I was especially impressed that I had a pierced ear that had been without jewelry for almost 4 years and Joe was able to get a piercing through it without re-piercing, saving me money and healing time. He threw in some free Neil Med for my new helix too. Super nice guy read more

I was in desperate need of a new piercing, and my fiancé told me about a new place in town that could satisfy my needs! Haha S E R V I C E: I booked our appointments online, and they give a good amount of time for customers because of Covid and for them to sanitize everything. You even get to book extra time when picking out jewelry. We found parking at a nearby parking area, and there's also mostly street parking. We stepped in and immediately loved the aesthetic of everything. The entrance was super inviting; a relaxing couch, plants everywhere, and the piercing room is huge with a professional, comfortable chair where you get pierced. P I E R C I N G E X P E R I E N C E: Joe, the owner, was our piercer. It was my fiancés first time getting a piercing, and Joe analyzed our ears and gave suggestions on what would look good on our ears and jewelry placements. We jokingly called Joe "soft hands" because we both didn't feel our ears get pierced at all haha. He was so fast, we were both shocked! One of the best piercers I've had pierce my ear! O V E R A L L: Getting your ears pierced is a commitment and an investment. Joe really takes care of you and makes sure you're educated about your piercing. Thank you for such a great experience and I love showing off my new piercing!! read more

Petaluma Piercing Company - Cartilage piercing with a dangle earring, real gold! - Piercing Near Me - Petaluma, California

Absolutely amazing experience! He is very kind and honest if a piercing will look good or not! Definitely recommend! read more

I couldn't get a new huggie through my piercing and didn't want to force it through when I couldn't tell if it had closed up or not. Not willing to traumatize my ear any further, I asked my hair stylist her thoughts of this place and if someone could help me out. She said absolutely, and it was a high recommendation. I see why! Since my piercings were about 2 decades old, I decided to book a "piercing problem" appointment. Made the appointment with Joe, and it was amazing. Comfy chair, everything was SUPER clean and sterile, and the process was super easy. He decided to "re-pierce" in order to understand the best way to guide the huggie and took special care of both my ear and jewelry, which I appreciated. Fastest procedure I sat through and cost me only $12. Wow! I will definitely be going back for some fresh piercings in the near future. It was very tempting to ask for something new, but I resisted the urge. Highly recommend for fresh, first timers interested in getting their ears pierced for the first time, anyone new to the area wanting some bling, or anyone with stubborn holes or jewelry that is really hard to manipulate yourself, especially if you have shaky hands like I do. read more

What a great and positive experience! From start to finish, the Petaluma Piercing Company did a phenomenal job. So patient, calm, and mindful. I've had many piercings done and this has been by far the best experience. Thank you for making my piercing so positive!! read more

My fiancé and I decided to get piercings together. I'm not going to lie, I have never gotten a piercing and I was a bit nervous not knowing what to expect. Joe at Petaluma Piercing Company was an amazing host giving me plenty of options to chose from and expertise on what would be the best piercing for me. Once we chose the stud I wanted he went over step by step what would happen. The piercing went in and I was done before I could react. The man's got gentle hands and the whole process was seamless. It was painless and smooth. Thanks for the piercing Joe! Can't wait to go back. read more

Petaluma Piercing Company - 14k white gold stud - Piercing Near Me - Petaluma, California

I went in today for a nose piercing and it was a great experience! The owner is super friendly, knowledgeable, and did a great job.. Highly recommend :) read more

I got my nose pierced by Joe at another location & had the best experience! It was my third time having it pierced, but the first time having it pierced by him & it was by far the best experience! He's got a very calm demeanor & vibe and explains everything very thoroughly. I came into his new location to browse the nose studs & he was super helpful, offered to order the gauge size I needed but I think he could tell I was impatient & didn't mind buying the size he had in stock (even though I had been sizing my nose piercing down) He ultimately offered to pierce my nose at the larger size and put in this super cute turquoise stud! I love it. Highly recommend this shop! read more

I had decided to get my septum redone and did a lot of research before I picked Petaluma piercing company and I couldn't have been happier with my experience! They have a great variety of jewelry and Joe is super nice, walked me through every step and aftercare, and was as gentle as possible. I love my piercing and will definitely be coming back for future piercings. read more

Petaluma Piercing Company - Septum piercing by Joe - Piercing Near Me - Petaluma, California

The shop is so clean. Joe carefully chooses a spot that will heal well and look great. He also takes future piercings into consideration.

Petaluma Piercing Company is run by warm & lovely people. They make you feel comfortable and at ease. The shop itself is stunning, pristine & professional. I had my nose piercing removed before an emergency surgery & I was a lil nervous because it had been several days but Joe (the owner) put another stud in as if he could do it with his eyes closed. They have many, high quality jewelry options to choose from. I will definitely be back for more piercings & would highly recommend this shop for all types of piercings & jewelry. read more

If I could give 10 stars I would! I highly recommend Joe for piercings! I am from San Diego and will 100% be coming all the way back for any future piercings. His shop is so cute! Super friendly staff. He was extremely patient, and nice, walked me through the entire process. It was a much different experience than what I have had in the past at other places. Not to mention my nose looks so fabulous!!! THANKS JOE! You're amazing!!! read more

LOVE getting pierced by Joe! I got my tragus pierced by him and let me tell you I barely felt it! Their jewelry is amazing quality and such a beautiful selection. The business is very clean and beautifully decorated. Due to having to get an MRI, I went somewhere else to have my jewelry removed (I live in SR and was trying to save the trip to Petaluma... HUGE MISTAKE) and was completely traumatized! I left bleeding and in pain with my jewelry still in my ear, I should have known to schedule a removal from Joe. I scheduled with Joe the following week and let me just tell you....NIGHT & DAY difference! He gently removed my jewelry and I think we talked longer than it took him to remove it!!! I will never go anywhere else to be pierced. Thank you so much Joe for caring about your clients and having the most gentle hands! read more

Whoops! Forgot to leave my review for my initial appointment for my nose piercing back in February. However I just returned for my jewelry downsizing and months later everything is just as perfect! Following Joe's advice and waiting the appropriate amount of time for any jewel changes really saved the healing process for me. If you are looking for honest, and respectful people to get your piercing needs. Come to Petaluma Piercing Co. read more

Genuinely great people - I came in to get my ears re-pierced after they closed up. They were able to get new earrings into my old holes, which meant I only had to pay for the jewelry, not the piercings as I had expected. I hadn't had earrings in my ears for years, I had accepted i was gonna have to pay for this and was amazed to find I didn't need to. 10/10, would recommend them to anyone in North Bay for their genuine decency. They absolutely could've let me pay for re-piercing but instead worked out how I could pay less money. read more

My wife and I brought our teenage daughters to Petaluma Piercing. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the shop and the kindness of the owner Joe. Both our girls were nervous and he did an amazing job putting their fear to rest. They have a huge selection of earrings to choose from all of which are very reasonably priced. 5 star all the way! Thanks Joe for creating such a pleasurable experience for our kids. read more

Great shop in Petaluma w/nice selection of jewelry. Good service too. Easy to make appointment online.

They are wonderful first went to get my nosed pierced wonderful job really nice and really good at explaining every step (even tho I have had it done before) and four months later came back to get the piercing checked and switched to something smoother so it doesn't get snagged on my mask I also wanted see if I can get my lobes redone..so Joe checked them and actually told me they were still open after many years I was shocked so he said I could buy jewelry and he could put them in so that's what we did!!If I could give one hundred stars I would..Next is my septum Hope my nose isn't to small read more

From the beginning to the end, everything went smoothly. The owners, Joe and Lindsay are super nice and so personable! Booking online was easy. They outline each service so it's easy to know how long it will take and includes pricing. They have a nice selection of jewelry to choose from. Joe will talk with you through which piece will look good with the piercing you want. The shop is very clean and inviting. I got a three cartilage piercing and Joe really took his time to make sure the three piercings lined up with the style of jewelry that I picked and matched the shape of my ear. Although he took his time to ensure the piercing looked right, he was very efficient. He is very thorough and sanitary in his work from start to finish. Joe is very knowledgeable about piercings, what will look good and the aftercare process. He provides education about the piercing(s) and aftercare which I thought was helpful. He has always answered any follow up questions I have had during the healing process & encourages you to reach out with any questions. I highly recommend Petaluma Piercing Company for all your piercing wants and needs! read more

I am so happy I found this place! I needed a couple of jewelry changes and was able to easily book online. Joe was super friendly and I could immediately sense his knowledge and experience and completely trusted him. Super comfortable, easy, and quick experience changing my nostril and conch jewelry. I am so happy! The studio is so clean and they carry beautiful jewelry. And again, SO friendly and welcoming, knowledgeable and not intimidating whatsoever. Great experience and I can't wait to be back and get some new piercings. Found my new go to spot! read more

I love the two pieces of jewelry that I bought (one nostril gem stud and one slim septum hoop). Joe was very patient and helpful. I appreciate that he didn't seem bothered by my many questions and indecisiveness. He seemed genuinely happy to be there. Between the nicest quality jewelry I've seen in a piercing shop in Sonoma county and the excellent service, I'd say this is the place to go. read more

Very friendly, gentle and explained the whole process and each step in great detail. I was nervous to get my nostril pierced and Joe walked me through it. It ended up being painless. Making appointments is super easy. I will definitely be back for jewelry purchases, changes and future piercings. read more

Had such a great experience at this shop! Joseph was very professional and welcoming, he made the entire experience very comfortable and was very knowledgeable about the entire process and aftercare. Will definitely be going back to change to a hoop and get more piercings!! read more

The first time my daughter had her ears pierced...at the one place with all the glitter and unicorns...it wasn't awesome. Unfortunately she inherited my tiny earlobes. Years later, after a rip in one ear and a closure of the other, she decided to try again, even w a genuine fear of needles of any kind. Enter Joe at Petaluma Piercing. He was fantastic. He was so welcoming. He was precise, explained everything from beginning to end and kept the whole experience calm and easy. The studio is gorgeous, immaculately clean, and his hygiene during the piercing was exceptional. He took his time to measure for the best placement and explained the after care completely. She barely felt a thing. The higher price for his skill over a questionable mall piercing situation is well worth it. I would recommend without hesitation. It was a great experience. read more

Joe and Lindsay are both great. They are both friendly and their shop is very welcoming and clean. Joe took the time to talk about every step of his process and what to expect with my nose piercing. After he pierced my nose he went over the details for cleaning and to help ensure my new piercing heals. I highly recommend Petaluma Piercing Company! read more

I went to Petaluma Piercing to change jewelry from a piercing done out of town. Joe listened carefully to what I wanted and helped me choose new jewelry to meet my needs. He also checked that my piercing was healing well and provided guidance on when to come back in for downsizing. Thank you for the great customer service! read more

Joe was exactly what his reviews (visible here, hidden here, and on Ace's Tattoo page where he worked before) say he is. Friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to with a great selection! The shop was very clean and it felt safe and sanitary start to finish. I got a new stud for my existing piercing that was beginning to close up. I love my new jewelry and appreciate Joe for getting my old, closing piercing back on track! I will definitely return in the future for a hoop. read more

Easy way to make an appointment. Easy paperwork to file. Fantastic and clean environment, smelled good! Great Selection of Jewlery. Joe (our piercer) was absolutely fantastic! Great procedure, friendly conversations, gentle hands, and extensive knowledge about the industry! 10/10 would recommend read more

I can not possibly recommend Joe and Petaluma Piercing Co enough! My teenage son wanted his first ear piercing. I heard of Joe from the folks at Aces Over Eights Tattoos. The shop was spotless and comfortable. Joe made my son quite comfortable, telling him every step of the way what he was doing before he did it. It was over in a heartbeat and my son reported that his allergy shots hurt much, much more. We were in and out of there in no time. I would not hesitate to return to Joe's shop and I recommend them to anybody. read more

I was so appreciative of the speed at which I got an appointment, the friendly atmosphere, the cleanliness of the place and the knowledgeable staff. Joe was amazing, quick, efficient and kind. He explained everything, directed me to another place for a different type of piercing I needed and made me very comfortable. My piercings look great and are healing well. I can not say enough amazing things about this place! I will be coming back again and again for more piercings! read more

I've been procrastinating getting my ears pierced for a WHILE until i did thorough research. All i've had were my lobes done at claire's when I was maybe 14. I got a daith with Joe & the entire process took less than 30 minutes it was probably the best experience I've had in a long time!! I was able to even sleep on my side surprisingly from the lack of pain. I felt so nervous going into it not knowing what to expect & getting anxious over the anticipated pain. Joe is evidently very knowledgeable, passionate & skilled in his work, he told me to breathe in & it was over in less than 2 seconds. I was honestly shocked & went home feeling happy & confident in my choice! Save yourself gambling with other options (they are a little more pricey than other piercing places but for good reason) & trust in someone who 1) knows what they're doing & 2) makes you feel at ease & comfortable from start to finish. I promise you won't want to get pierced at any place else because I sure won't! :) read more
