I had my snake bites (two lip piercings) done here on a Tuesday for $10. You have to sign papers of consent and acknowledge of potential risks. The wait is long but it's $10. You get in, pay, and wait for your turn. The place gets full and can feel overwhelming for some. One of the women calls over to sit and confirm what you put down. For me, She lined them up as best she could and asked for my opinion. I gave her the okay and got them pierced. I felt nervous but comfortable. It was quick, easy, and cheap. I used a mix of salt water for the healing, had a little pain, and barely any swelling. The pain of getting snake bites pierced was a 3 out of 10, but that's considering I have a high pain tolerance and within 4-5 days, the bruising was gone. read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!! EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL PIERCER. I came here and the piercer Gigi was extrémely unprofessional, didn't use needles, she used a gun with dull earrings. She didn't even ask if I would prefer being pierced with a needle and she didn't check with me to see if I liked the placement of the earrings. The piercings came out horribly placed and when I said I wanted them removed and asked for my money back she said she couldn't do a refund with an attitude. Horrible work. She didn't sanitize the earrings or the gun, she just rubbed my ear with an alcohol swab. She didn't check with me for anything it was almost as if I wasn't there. And any time I asked a question she seemed annoyed. If you want a piercing that you will be extremely unhappy with while receiving a nasty attitude feel free to go here. I recommend going anywhere else. If I could get a negative star rating I would. Gigi is the worst. And she didn't use gloves the entire time. I also know a whole bunch of people that got piercings here when they were 13 years old, including nipple piercings! I recommend KAPITAL PIERCINGS on 186 & St nick. ¡¡¡NO VAYAS AQUÍ!!! PERFORADOR EXTREMADAMENTE POCO PROFESIONAL. Vine aquí y la perforadora Gigi era extremadamente poco profesional, no usaba agujas, usaba una pistola con pendientes mocos. Ni siquiera me preguntó si preferiría que me perforaran con una aguja y no me preguntó si me gustaba la colocación de los pendientes. Los piercings salieron horriblemente colocados y cuando dije que quería que me los quitaran y pedí que me devolviera el dinero, ella dijo que no podía hacer un reembolso con una actitud. Trabajo horrible. Ella no desinfectó los pendientes ni la pistola, solo me frotó la oreja con un hisopo con alcohol. Ella no me comprobó nada, era casi como si yo no estuviera allí. Y cada vez que hacía una pregunta, ella parecía molesta. Si quieres un piercing con el que serás extremadamente infeliz mientras recibes una actitud desagradable, no dudes en ir aquí. Recomiendo ir a cualquier otro lugar. Si pudiera obtener una calificación de estrellas negativa, lo haría. Gigi es la peor. Y no usó guantes todo el tiempo. También conozco a un montón de personas que se hicieron piercings aquí cuando tenían 13 años, incluidos los piercings en los pezones! read more

The very first time I came here I got my daith pierced and it went well. I also got my belly button re-pierced. I had no problems. I came back the next week for the $10 Tuesday deal. I got my rook and upper helix pierced. This is where things went wrong. I've got a different girl this time and she did not change her gloves, nor did she sanitize the area before piercing me at all. Not only that, she messed up and had a re-pierced me, and it was extremely painful. I understand they were busy and I felt like it was a rushed process. i've never had an infected piercing, but I had to take out my helix the very next day. Also, not to mention, the girls are not over the age of 18. And honestly, I don't think they're certified to be piercers, I wouldn't advise you to get any piercings on your face or any piercings that are difficult to heal. Also, to mention, the place was full of highschoolers, just to paint you the atmosphere. One of the girls there did peers well, but the other one was terrible honestly. The first two piercings I've got the first time healed perfectly. But the last two were difficult, and. read more

I love it here but tiktok has ruined this spot. Now on Tuesday the line is down the block for a discounted piercing, can't even get pierced without a 2 hour line wait. Get there at 12:30-1pm to get pierced for 10$ on Tuesday. read more

I came here the other day to get a few piercings. DO NOT COME HERE. The piercer -- who im starting to question was even licensed or not, did all of my piercings (five) with the same needle. She touched money and other items with her gloves and after I asked her to change them, she refused. Pretty sure she didn't disinfect in between clients either. Probably going to the doctor to get tested after that. My piercings feel infected. They're so swollen and red and im usually good with piercings. I thought maybe it was a mind thing, but I've been having a fever along with a keloid growing on one of my piercings. Don't know how they get so many customers! The place is so unsanitary! Will not be going back. read more

They did eyebrow piercing to my 13 yrs old daughter without asking a parent consent and stuff, they r not supposed to do that to under age, this is so wrong read more

Amazing customer service I love my earrings I am definitely going to be coming back for more

A place where you really get what you pay for!! Do not go here it's disappointing... Tongue piercing was done decent but they don't check to make sure you have no veins in your tongue that could cause damage. My Monroe was pierced horribly,instead of straight inside my mouth it was pierced through my lip don't even know how that is possible!! Place is small and crowded They don't clean u correctly (unsanitary) Piercings are too rushed (Placement will not have a positive outcome) The workers are decent to say the least I'm a piercer myself and have a lot myself and knowledge and you can tell these people are newbies or just not good really not worth $10 or $20+ being wasted for a messed up piercing you will always get every visit save your money. but definitely recommend going to a professional or in Soho!! read more

Absolutely amazing!! Grandma, mother, and especially the daughter just AMAZING!!!!!! Loveeeee this place!

I got my septum pierced and nose stud pierced here yesterday and the nose stud came out fine but when it came to the septum piercing, they did a horrible job. The girl who pierced it had to pierce it twice because the first time it came out way too crooked and the second time it came out crooked too. I don't recommend you to come here at all if you're looking to get a septum piercing or any piercing for that matter, you'll get scammed because the people that work there don't know what they are doing. One of my friends also had a 2 minute seizure after she got her nose stud piercing from this place. DON'T COME HERE AT ALL! read more

The Heights - Crooked septum piercing. This place doesn't know how to do piercings. - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Manhattan, New York

$10 tuesdays are amazing. Not to mention the staff is very friendly and the place is very clean.

I went to this area in september to get my helix done, and am developing a keloid because they did my piercing with a nail gun despite the fact i said do it with a needle, they said that it was cheaper with the gun and did it anyways. they only care about convenience. read more

I came here on a Friday. I got my helix pierced. The young girl at the counter was not very friendly, she did not have much personality. When I sat down to get pierced, she asked me if I wanted to get it done with a gun or needle. I obviously said a needle because a gun is so unsanitary. The only reason I went along with the piercing was because the needles were packaged and she wore gloves - But - here is another red flag - She was ready to mark me up and insert the needle - without even cleaning and disinfecting the area. When I asked her if she was going to clean it with alcohol, she asked me "Do you want me to"? Really?! That right there let me know that she does not have experience in piercing. Piece of advice to the owner of this place - teach the piercers to automatically clean the piercing areas with alcohol. Teach them to disinfect the areas that are going to be pierced. That is just common sense and proper hygiene ethic. The earring she used was not one that I chose, and I didn't realize it until after it was done - but at this point, I cannot do anything about it. I just hope it heals properly. I hear the owner here is good at piercing and I wish she would have been there because I would have asked her to do it. We will see how it heals - but they need better piercers. I will not be back. read more

The owner is super nice I love her! She does piercings and they they come out good but as for the actual piercers there... I wouldn't totally recommend. I've gotten multiple piercings here and 80% of them came out crooked or infected. I have 28 piercings, I know how to maintain my them throughout the healing process and in general so it definitely didn't get infected cause of me lol. The reason I alway go back is cause they're $20 and $10 on Tuesdays, they catch you with that deal but it's not worth it for a crooked pericing. If you wanna get a basic ear piercing then go but other than that getting your nipples or anything on your face would be a hit or miss (Depending on the person doing it.) I got my septum there 5-6 years ago and they did it super crooked and low, it was coming out the actual bottom of my nose, when I went back to tell the lady she told me I was wrong and that she did it correctly so I took it off infront of her and put it back in so she can see where it was coming out of, she said "oh" when she saw it was crooked, she knew she messed up badddd and didn't even apologize... when I asked if I can get a refund and she said no but that I can get another piercing........ at that point I definitely didn't want a piercing from her but I paid $20 for the septum so I got a nose piercing, she atleast did that correctly. I also got my belly, rook, tragus and a couple other piercings from that same shop throughout the years, that same lady did my rook and tragus crooked and way tooo low and the guy there didn't even pierce my belly in the center, he also did it while I was sitting which idk if it's supposed to be that way but usually people get it laying down. (They've both been fired!) so that's great. Another girl who works there idk if she's still there or not but 2 of my friends got their nipples done and she did one of theirs lower than the other nip and my other friends was legit coming out from the front of her nipple. Thankfully they have a new girl there and she pierces good, she did my Medusa and Vertical Labret and they're perfectly centered! but I still say be careful on going there and which piercings you decide to get with them cause like I said it's a hit or miss depending on who's there.. read more

I went, they were nice. I got My belly pierced, I didn't move whatsoever. They pierced it crooked and now it's infected. They screwed it on too tight and now I can't take it off. read more

I got a tragus and flat piercing here. Piercings cost 10$ on tuesdays. Luz was amazing. Totally recommend this place!

I just moved to nyc and one of the many thing I've learned from New Yorkers is that they love to get stuffed pierced. I looked up this place and of course I went in because it's littersly 20 dollars. I got my nose, ears, belly done and had no issues with them. I love this place so much and I will be coming back more often. read more

There was no safety measures in place. The staff member did not wear gloves nor did it seem like she disinfected between patients. She didn't wash her hands in between patients either. Upon seeing this I turned away. There needs to be some safety protocols in place. read more

I got 4+ piercings here (middle cartilage, helix, navel, and tragus) and every time the service was amazing. I have never had a problem with any of my piercings and will definitely be coming back! Piercings are typically $10 on Tuesdays (automatic 50% discount)z read more

I went there on Tuesday August 18 2020. I went in asking for a double tongue piercing and an industrial piercing. The piercer told me she couldn't do the double tongue, that it would be too much trauma. So I settled for a surface/scoop tongue piercing. She decided to do the industrial first she sat me down drew the line asked me if I liked it then squeezed both sides of the ear together and stuck the needle through, then she put the jewelry through screeds it then pulled both sides of my ear apart to the ends of the earring. She did not disinfect anything or ask if I was ready. The way that was pierced was insanely incorrect and overly painful and aggressive. Then when it came to the surface tongue she drew the lines very crooked and asked if it was good, I said no and she just drew the line slightly more straight. I said it was ok then again she just went into the piercing. The procedure is supposed to be the piercer clamps your tongue and makes sure the dots are center in the clamp then push the needle through. My experience was, with no warning she squeezed my tongue with her fingers and pushed the needle through with no way to know if it was straight or not. I didn't get to see the jewelry at all before I was pierced. I walked outside and looked at my tongue the bar was so small my tongue had already begun to swell around it. I went back inside and she told me that that was the only size if jewelry she had. It was so small that it felt insanely uncomfortable with my tongue just being still. It's been 24 hours and I needed to remove the piercing on my own, my tongue began to swell around the balls of the bar, even while having ice on my tongue for hours. I had realized after taking it out that she pierced the middle of my tongue with jewelry made for the snake eyes piercing. A surface piercing requires a much thicker and longer barbell. I spoke to a professional and I was told that there was no way my tongue could have healed around the tiny bar and it couldn't have stayed in my mouth for more than 2 days. My entire mouth hurts and is insanely sore read more

I've gotten 5 piercings here before, my belly (i got repierced) so it was easy to pierce, my frog eyes (only piercing they got right), tragus (which got infected and my piercings never get infected, my septum which is not straight my left side of the hole is lower than the right side, and when i went to get my smiley she didn't even do it on the piece that's hanging she did it all the way at the top basically on the inside of my lip (she did the same to my friend too) and i had to literally smile really hard for you to be able to see it, i went back she said it's because the piece where she is supposed to pierce it at is too thin, my smiley i had before for months and i showed her where she could repierce it because you can tell by the healed wound and my smiley never ripped before when i had it. Told her to repierce and she kept telling me if it rips it's none of our responsibility i said duh, it won't even rip because i've had it before you could see for yourself. and when my friend sister went the girl with them long ass nails fucked up her whole smiley when screwing in the ball, caused her to bleed mind you she told her to get her another piercer because of her long nails and she said she knew what she was doing... clearly not. besides the $10 in tuesday's their work and service is crappy. don't go here unless you're going for simple piercings like belly, ear, or nose, maybe not even that since it's on your face don't wanna risk that! read more

Great prices! Love coming here for my piercings. I always feel comfortable. Everyone is really nice and attentive. They make sure to take care of you. Plus they sell hookah items etc. Its perfect! read more

I've gone a couple times to this place. For sure the lady's there are nice but the man did my friends second hole so unsanitary. He had not gloves and didn't even clean the area before piercing it. Then I wanted to ask a question and he was basically kicking me out for no reason what's so ever. Well I recommend going on tuesdays cause the girl is always there in those days and she's very sanitary and nice. read more
