I called early on Memorial Day to see if they accepted walk ins, and they said that while they do…read moretake walk in's, today would be busy, and they recommended making an appointment. It was quick and easy to make an appointment on their website, and it didn't require a security deposit either. I arrived to get my conch piercing at 5:30 pm and I was out by 6 pm. I was a little nervous and had lots of questions about the piercing itself and the after care. I also had not gotten a piercing in years, so I was worried it would be painful. They were kind and allowed my two friends to come to the back with me to hold my hand (I know... I'm a scaredy cat). Mitch walked me through everything that was going to happen- for example, "okay, you're gonna feel a small pinch first and then you'll feel some pressure." He also said that my only job was to keep breathing. He had me take one deep breath in and then exhale out right as he did the piercing, too. As you can tell, the team is very patient and kind here. This is a great spot for anxious girlies or for your first time getting a piercing. Their piercing and jewelry pricing is all fair. My conch piercing costed $45 plus the 14K gold jewelry I chose. Unlike other shops, they had a huge selection of yellow gold and rose gold options that were actually cute- flowers, stars, moons, etc. On average, I saw the stud earrings were about $60-170 each. They also tallied up my total prior to actually getting the piercing, so there weren't any surprises at the end when I paid. They sent me home with a detailed after care guide too. I've already told friends and family about this shop being a great option for them when they come visit Utah.

I am still reeling from the wonderful experience I had with Matt at Abyss earlier today. I came in…read morewith helix snakebites in mind but not exactly knowing which piercing(s) I wanted, and seeking feedback on how to build out my stack based on my ear anatomy. Matt offered a variety of options and gave me some ideas I had not considered, which is exactly what I was hoping for. I appreciated that he was not pushy about any of the ideas. He pointed out that my outer conch provided a unique surface area that would feature snake bites, a location I had not considered but ultimately loved. The piercings themselves were minimally painful, and I was so impressed by how Matt ensured safety and cleanliness throughout the process. I will definitely be returning to Abyss for any additional piercings in my future! Thanks again for your time and thoughtfulness, Matt.

I had a great experience. The man piercing was extremely professional and efficient. It's been two months and my piercings healed nicely. Cons: They didn't have a wide range of jewelry. I wish there was more information on how you can order something from somewhere else ahead of time. You have to wear the same earrings for 8 weeks, so having something you don't love is kind of a bummer. My piercings might be slightly misaligned which could be for numerous reasons. It's honestly so negligible and both ears look great, but I could see this driving somebody crazy who is OCD. I also have some weird AF small ears, so considering that... I think he did great. Also, he had me approve the placing before he pierced and he had me check them out after. It looked perfect at the time and I only noticed it when pairing with certain earrings... so again, idk, it could be so many things (like hell, maybe it's my firsts that I've had since I was four?!). All in all, I'd go back and I probably will for another ear piercing or two.

He's a great conversationalist with awesome stories, which made the time absolutely fly by while we were in the chair. You can tell everyone who works there genuinely cares about what they do--they were all super nice, engaged with what each client was getting, and created a welcoming, community-type atmosphere. ​To top it all off, our tattoos turned out great and the pricing is completely unmatched for the quality of work you get. Highly recommend Jake and the rest of the team at Platypus Tattoo!

I believe this past weekend was her final weekend doing those walk-ins this summer, but I may be wrong. During my walk-in appointment, I filled out my information and signed a waiver, and then had to wait at the studio for my name to be called. Because it was a walk-in, and not an actual appointment I waited for about an hour because there were several people ahead of me. You're able to book appointments online, and would not have to wait for this long if you made an appointment! If you're ever thinking about doing a walk in, definitely try to get there early. Jade was so lovely and kind and communicative. I've gotten many piercings in my lifetime, and was doing a very simple lobe piercing, but even so, she made me feel so comfortable and communicated everything she was doing every step of the way. She was very thorough and gave me her contact information if I had any questions afterwards. I got some of the saline solution they provide there as well. They had some really cute options for piercings! I upgraded to the stars/moons piercings because they were so cute. Some of their cheaper options come with the price of the piercing. I would absolutely come back here to get pierced by Jade again!
