Absolutely AWFUL. The piercer was just trying to make a quick buck off of me. i went in for a smiley piercing and instead of just letting me know my mouth wasn’t designed for the piercing, he went ahead and pierced my gums. and he ended it saying “see i know what im doing sometimes” no… no you don’t. i then went to obsidian that took care of me very well and informed me that i don’t have the webbing you need in order to pierce it. i was in extreme pain and couldn’t eat.

I love the work they do, always a great job . Fast, a very reasonable price, and large selection of piercings .

Came for a nose piercing. Was greeted in a friendly manner. Employee was attentive and informative. The atmosphere rocked. Decked out with plenty of horror memorabilia. Ample seating for wait times. Piercing was quick and virtually painless. Actual procedure was @4 minutes tops! Would definitely recommend!

Walt is very nice but unfortunately messes up my piercings often. my first piercing from here was my nose, and he pierced it way too low. second was my bellybutton which was fine. i took it out one time about a year after it was pierced and it closed up so i went back to get it re-pierced and he messed it up, it’s crooked now. i got my lip done twice. first time i got it done, he didn’t even ask me if i liked the location of it, he just went ahead and did it. it was WAY too low, it looked disgusting, so i took it out. second time i got it done, it was perfect. i loved it. other than that, no other complaints. Walt is a nice guy. If you go here, just be careful.

Though I was scared lol I enjoyed my experience. I felt like I was in great hands the entire time. The owner pierced me. Id recommend to anyone. If Im back out there hes definitely doing my other piercings

I know the image might be a little grainy because I’m in a dark room at the moment. I went yesterday for a vertical labret on my lip, it was busy and he’s still only accepting a few people in the shop at a time (which is perfectly fine I have no problem with that.) They didn’t even check to see if I was of age, although I brought my ID in case. They have you sign a paper now that if anything goes wrong, you take accountability for it. Anyways, during the process he marked the placement AND asked me if it was okay in the spot he picked. Here comes the bad part, I ask him “It looks kind of off, I want it to be in the middle so you’re gonna pierce it in the middle right?” because the piercing IS supposed to be in the middle on your bottom lip. He then proceeded to tell me that he was gonna pierce in the middle, but then used the excuse the marker exploded on my lip and still pierced it off from where it was supposed to be. Of course, you get what you pay for that cheap so I’m not that mad, but I want to spread awareness for anyone else that comes here. I’ve been there three times for the past 3 years and got both of my nostrils and septum done which healed nicely, but they still hurt when I try to change the jewelry out. Did not clean the area before each time, but did clean it after for the vertical labret. Does not tell you how to do aftercare unless you ask. Sadly, I won’t be going here again like I planned on doing. The guy is very nice, but he does seem to be sassy and have his bad days!

So I got a septum piercing and my friend got a mid helix. I went back first and the piercer didn’t clean the area I was getting pierced before or after he was done piercing me. He didn’t ask if I liked the placement before piercing me. He literally didn’t even give me a warning beforehand. I guess for those who might back out this could be good but I felt that it was unprofessional. Again as I said he didn’t clean it after the procedure was over. When it was my friend’s turn, he didn’t change his gloves and he pierced her while he was on the phone which was unprofessional and UNSAFE. Again he didn’t clean the area. Once she was finished he was still on the phone so when he didn’t give us any aftercare information we thought he just wanted to finish his call but he shooed us out before the call was over. We didn’t receive any information or any cleaning product. The jewelry he used was either too small or he pierced me too far back. When I got home the ball on the end of my piercing FELL OFF. I should have known when he said the price was only $20 for a nose piercing to run. Save yourself the time and go somewhere else.

I went on Friday the 13th bc all piercings were $13. Very long line. I stood in the line for almost 2 hours. Only had 3 people working. 1 person checking people in. 1 doing the piercings. And 1 cleaning? I got 3 ear piercings done and my nose. The guy doing my piercings was nice but he didnt let my mom in the room with me and that made me upset bc I was very nervous. He didnt even let her stand by the door. We called before hand and they said they needed my birth certificate and my moms id (bc Im only 16) but they didnt even ask for it when we got there. Overall the place has a nice Halloween theme. But dont know if Ill return.

I got there today at 6:20pm. They closed at 7 today. Luckily he let me still get my septum piercing however, he didn’t ask for my ID, he just handed me the paperwork to sign and that was it. Once we went in the back, he told me how to sit and clamped me. He never cleaned the area before or after. Nor did he really give me cleaning instructions. I love my piercing but I feel like it was a little rushed and am paranoid about it healing or etc. I’m inlove with the piercing and hope that I have no problems with it.

The whole process was quick, easy, and cheap.However, I got my septum done and the piercer did not clean the area before or after, give any aftercare instructions, and did not ask me if I liked the location of the piercing or the jewelry. They have an amazing selection of jewelry, but I was not able to choose which one I wanted. My nerves didn’t have a chance to get bad because of how quick it was, although impersonal. I would recommend this place for anyone who has had a couple of piercings and knows how they should feel and about aftercare. Would not recommend for first time facial piercings.

First piercing and wasnt as bad as I thought! Quick and simple

Just avoid if you want professionalism and proper handling. Cheap can get you far enough I guess

Walt is amazing! He did all of my piercings and will be doing all future ones!

Definitely not the friendliest place. All staff members lacking customer service skills, politeness, and friendliness.

I personally loved the place super fun to walk in, clean good atmosphere and great customer service. This is the only place I’ll go for my piercings. I’m less than 3 months I’ve been back twice and thinking of going again for another and maybe my last piercing hehee but I do recommend this place to all my friends and family. It’s a great place to go, they offer quality, good pricing, and a piece of tranquility.

Had 3 piercings done by walt so far and have had no issues, everything healed nicely, and he was very professional, answered any questions I had, and made me feel at ease.

Got my septum done with my two babes, felt great!

It was very quick however, he did not clean anything, did not say how to take care of it afterwards. Did not let me pick my nose piercing. He just did it. And I never seen him open a new pack is sterile Needles.

Staff was efficient in attending to the massive line at closing time, piercings were cheap, staff was pleasant. Unfortunately in their rush, the piercer pierced my ears crooked.

Chris is amazing at his job and very gentle at the same time. His shop decor is incredible; everyday is Halloween! The prices are super good too. I cant recommend him enough!

I got my navel pierced and even though it turned out perfect I would have much rather he cleaned the area before he pierced. I’m hoping for a great recovery with the hope of no infections. He worked very fast put aside he had tons of experience. While filling out our paperwork he was very rude and unprofessional to a colored costumer who was asking a few questions about her daughter’s piercing she had just gotten. Through out the time of my visit he demonstrated very poor and unprofessional attitude. Didn’t give any after care instructions and was very pushy to get us out the door. The price is great and the jewelry is beautiful. The place was very clean and tidy.

RROBYNS DECORZ....THIS PLACE IS AWESOME

Very nice person to deal with. Would definitely go back again.

This man helped me get a badly done piercing out of my nose! It hurt real bad but he helped me with no problem and was very nice and professional!!! Thank u

It was a very good price, we went in thinking it would be $80-90 but it was only about $20 for a nose stud. nice guy, clean space, checked to know if you liked the piercing location, my only complaint is i was not given instructions for care other than not to move it.

I have gone here 3 separate times and have gotten 4 piercings every single one of them are messed up. first i go there and he is never there so i have to go the next day after i already drove 15 minutes to get there yea it’s not a lot but that’s gas for the 30 minute round trip then when i finally go he didn’t clean nothing before piercing he just pierced it. yea the piercings are only $20 but i’d much rather do them myself and do them right if he’s just gonna mess up every single piercing i get there he also touched my money w the same gloves he pierced me with. i won’t be going back here very unprofessional.

I got my nose and belly button pierced, nose was fine, and note the boss wasn’t there so I didnt need my birth certificate. However, the second time, when he was there I needed it, not complaining however inconsistent. After my belly button was pierced, I followed all the aftercare instructions however it scarred all around. And now I’m a year out and I can’t find any jewelry that fits because they pierced it wrong and now all the jewelry is too small. I would go to do small piercings, nose, ears, etc but for the “wilder” modifications I would stick with another place.

Great experience! Quick and to the point! 💉 Lol

Great service, quick and the studio was very clean. I went with 2 other friends and we all had a great experience, definitely would go back and would recommend to a friend.

Got nose piercing, industrial bar, triple forward helix, and belly button pierced here over the years. Very cool decor and great prices. The piercer is very nice and chill and makes sure you are happy with the placement before hand. Very clean and haven’t had any problems with the placement or infections. Highly recommended coming here. This is the only piercer I go to now.

Prices are great however I went in last year to get my nipple piercing done and the piercer didn’t close the door. He didn’t talk me through the process, he was impatient and had a nasty attitude. He did calm it down after I had a mini conversation with him about how nervous I was. Other than that, everyone was nice.

Been going here five years. I choose to travel here to get quality work done! The owner is friendly and so great with my girls and myself I only trust him. Highly recommend coming here.

Go elsewhere...Extremely rude... was super uncomfortable.... don’t know what the deal was but not good vibes.

The guy that works there is mad chill. The inside looks dot got a piercing with my mom it was really cheap too.

Wasn’t professional or sanitary whatsoever. I went with my friend to get a couple piercings. I was very disappointed to find out that I couldn’t choose the jewelry I wanted. Due to Corona, only 2 people were allowed into the shop. I went with my friend and she got her piercings first. The guy did not change his gloves after piercing her and proceeded to pierce my ears. I was shocked when I was pierced without the piercer cleaning the spot before and after getting it done. He was very rushed and was on the phone while piercing my ears as well. Very disappointed.

I’ve had three piercings done here (septum, tongue, and labret) so far and will not go anywhere else. Clean environment and sterile equipment. Skilled and experienced piercer. My boyfriend had his first piercing done here as well. I’ve never had any problems or complications from my piercings. Highly recommend Porcupine. Love the decor. Not to mention the service very affordable and includes jewelry, which periodic specials running from time to time, making it perfect for multiple piercing or getting one done with a friend or loved one.

I got the snake eyes piercing a couple days ago, and even though they were very nice and the piercing was cheap.. and it doesn’t look infected .. (yet) he gave me no warning to when he was about to pierce me, nor did he clean the piercing before or after.. also my piercing is CROOKED🙄 that place is definitely cheap for a reason.Very unprofessional.. I feel bad for the people who go here and have no idea about how a piercing should be done. Yikes

Even though my dermal piercing was painful I would definitely do it again. The man that owns and does the piercings and tattoos is fantastic, he really knows what hes doing. He is very experienced. I had recommended him to my friends for their tattoos and the work he does is out of this world. Great job!

Very polite, made sure I liked the placement, made sure he liked the placement and then we got the needles which he opened in front of me. All around great guy who I will be getting all my piercings from, from now on.

Piercer wasn’t really forthcoming with information about after care for piercing—had to ask questions to find things out. So, the experience ended up feeling a bit impersonal. Quick process though, waiting to see how it heals.

Awesome experience!!! I got my nose pierced and the man answered all my questions, was extremely polite, and helpful. The price was great too. Honestly, this is the place to go for quality piercing at a low cost.

Paid $10 for the guy to not be able to change my piercing and talk bad about where I got it done originally.. Absolutely terrible experience. $20 for any piercing... how sketchy, the guy cant even change a piercing, who would ever trust him to actually pierce....

This is an amazing place to go. They have great prices. The owner and employees are very sweet which made it feel more comfortable to be there.

I’ve gotten my nose and nips done here..my nose was fine other then the fact I developed a keloid and he popped it leaving a scar...he’s a very nice guy tho and helpful, however with my newest piercing (nipples) he didn’t even clean the area before he did it OR AFTER THE FACT. also sometimes I go when they say they’re open and he isn’t there.However the selection of jewelry is amazing. I love This place but I’m disappointed with my newest piercings.

Ive been going to walt for years for all my piercings wont go to anyone else !!! I only ever had on reject it was a dermal and that was my body nothing he did and he was sweet enough to redo the piercing for me .he does quality work 💞

My mother in law went here to get her daith peirced. To stop headaches. She got them at the end of November and they are not healed and are both infected and it is January 18, 2020He didnt clean nor let her pick her choice of peirceing. He also did not clean the area before hand. This is by far the worst place Ive even seen. Non of us will be coming back.

Always the best! Got everything done here except my first holes as a child . He does quick, clean and professional work and you cant beat the price! Very friendly and high recommend. Hours are great!

Great experience

I had 3 piercing done from Walt. His amazing I healed perfectly. I would recommend him thats the only place I will go for my piercing he is very clean. I got my lip pierced from a different place and it got infected but when I heard about this place I figure I tried my first piercing from Walt was the belly then my tongue and finally my Monroe and I want more and I be going to Walt for them.

We went yesterday, 8/17 at 1pm. There was a sign on the door that said opening late. There were a bunch of people that had been waiting longer than us. We waited half an hour and then left. Awful since we were going to have four people get pierced. We went to Obsidian Piercing & tattoo parlor instead. Andy Gehris took care of us!

Visiting from Pittsburgh! Got my my medusa and tragus pierced!! It was very quick and professionally done. You barely had time to get nervous before it was over. I have had a a good amount of piercings in multiple places from septum to eyebrow to nape. Best piercing and body modification place I have gone to in awhile. Thank you so much!!!

Got my nipples pierced about 4 weeks ago with my friend. We both had to remove ours due to them being done to deep and improper jewelry being used. They also werent straight.

Ive had 3 piercings from Walt and all healed the way they were supposed to. Super clean and helpful with post care questions. I would highly recommend!

Ive been there twice for two piercings and I am completely satisfied. Hes an awesome down to earth guy. His shop is awesome and attracting! Keep up the good work!

Very professional, very clean and reasonable. I got my nose peirced, and was out within 10 minutes. I highly recommend.

AWFUL! DID NOT CLEAN BEFORE PIERCING, PIERCED WITHOUT KNOWING THE CORRECT ANATOMY. Had to go to a different piercing shop to get my piercing taken out because my ear was too small for a snug which he failed to mention, after asking 5 times if it was okay. Mind you he was very rude and acted like he hated his job. His response was “Yeah we can fit something in there”. When i went to a more professional shop to get the piercing removed they said he shouldn’t have even pierced it there because the anatomy of my ear wasn’t correct for a snug. UNACCEPTABLE! I EXPECT TO GO TO A PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS AND GET PROFESSIONALS WORKING. Although the piercings are cheap I highly recommend seeking more professional businesses as far as piercings.

He is the best piercer around with the best prices and very friendly and clean I been going to him since I was 13 and now am 18 and never had a problem with him I always go back and totally recommend him to anyone he knows what he is doing he has a lot of experience and he is really fast and has the largest selection of piercings

The owner is down to earth and just a cool guy in general. Hes clean, neat and organized. My Gf and I will be going there for all of our piercings in the future from now on.

DO NOT COME HERE. You get that you pay for.. Had a very bad experience getting piercings here. The piercer used the WRONG SIZED JEWELRY and PIERCED THE WRONG SPOT. Then artist pierced my Areolas instead of the nipple itself, and used a curved barbell that was also too short. To top it off, he was also quite rude when the tip I left was not adequate.

Not happy, Didnt clean the area before piercing it. He repierced my monroe cause it closed from having it out for my job and he did it kinda crooked so now I have to let it close and get it pierced over again by someone else. I didnt like that the jewelry was pointing to the side cause of the way he pierced it. Didnt give me any instruction of how to keep it clean or what to use. Never again.

Didnt give instructions on keeping my piercing clean, however good price.

Unfortunately bought 4 pieces of jewelry over 2 years all claiming to be titanium. ....had allergic reactions. ...Im only not allergic to titanium 😢

Great place, professional, and quick worth the piercings.. Best place to go, dont waste your time going anywhere else.

Low prices cool owner.

I got a hand web piercing and they did a great job. They were friendly, and the shop was very clean. Overall really good place to go!

Have always gone to this guy for anything that has to do with piercings. Been going to him for 5+ years now. Never a bad piercing, always clean and always friendly and always pleased with his work. Just took my mom here for here first off the wall piercing as well.

Really cool people. My sis got her ear pierced and the were really professional and cool about it

Excellent service, very clean, only spot Ill go for piercing

Great and I mean the best anywhere selection of jewelry

Porcupine is awesome for piercings $20 for any piercings their pricing on tattoos is great they will work with you and the artist are excellent I give him a 5 thumbs up

I got 🐍 bites here. The piercer was very friendly, the shop was decorated in horror characters, and my piercings came out great! I will most definitely be going back! 👍👍👍

Best place to get pierced.....very very sanitary and absolutely respectful

I got both my nose and my cartilage pierced and they didn’t clean them before he pierced them and didn’t tell me how to clean it or anything of the matter.

This guy is great! Super clean and quick. Love the shop too.

I called to see about age limits and the guy on the phone was snarky with me and when I asked a question about what he said he replied with, “um is that what i said.” i wouldn’t recommend this place

I dont know where to start... he is never there when he says he will be. I went there twice and nope sorry he isnt in. At least advertise your correct hours. It says open 12-7 but doesnt say he leaves at 2 and doesnt come back until 4ish.( thats if he comes back at all) Not a way to do business, its flat out rude to the customers that patronize your shop. I ended up going to another place and so glad I did. I got a daith piercing. They were so professional and clean and nice. I will be getting more piercings done but NEVER at porcupine. Good luck to you if you decide to use porcupine...i wouldnt waste the gas or time.

Professional and very very good clean work. Owner is awesome as well, funny and down to earth and straight to the point.

Walter is a great peircer, cool dude. Hes done my septum, dermal, and dimples. No issues whatsoever Sometimes they dont have body jewlery that I need but, otherwise theyre good. i just call before i drive over now.

Just got my industrial done. Hurts like a ... well, mother ****** but above all I would recommend this place to anyone! 10/10

I came here about 3 months ago to get my anti-tragus pierced. Now Ive heard some things about this shop but when youre a broke 20 year old who loves piercings: 20 dollars for a piercing obviously overrides any cleaning procedures (lol). I didnt necessarily feel welcome when I walked in.. staff was not super friendly. Ive read the other reviews and Ive seen that a lot of people have developed their first keloid here. That happened to me and Ive never had one before I got this anti tragus. Whoever pierced my ear did not clean it off before, from what I can remember. Wasnt a great experience - Id spend the extra money somewhere else if it means my piercer is nice and appreciate cleanliness.

This guys is really chill but never told me how to clean an care for my piercings . I had to ask around and Google it. I had to let one close because it wasnt healing an started to reject. My nose piercing is crooked an a pain to change and extra painful even now an Ive had it a while. He pierced my bottom navel so slanted it was 110% noticable an he said it would shift straight during healing. Idk why I let it go but I figured he knew best. It got supremely infected I had to bandage it so it wouldnt touch clothes it hurt so bad I luckily found a piercer who knew what they were doing an removed it an helped me out an told me how to heal it an then told me when an if I wanted it redone she would do it for free an I been going to her since. He also pierced my one helix to low an not alot of skin its amazing it healed or even stated. I think 1/6 was done right. I know I shouldnt of gone back after the 2nd but he was so talked up I thought it was just me. Really okay dude but not worth the money and work is not good enough for the price 🤷🏽‍♀️ sorry oh an instead of actual cartilage or helix piercings he used L-nose rings an shoved it in there.

Great experience and very cost effective.

Owner Walt is an awesome guy for piercings and everything is great quality and terrific prices!

If you’re looking for a quick and cheap place to get pierced, this is it!

Very clean. Excellent customer sevice!!

My friend owns this place and I love it. The only place I will get pierced.

Very clean, I got both sides of my nose pierced and my belly button and never had an issue, very happy with the results!

Great place. Clean friendly

Owner Bill is extremely unprofessional took my daughters earring threw it out in the garbage, and then told me to tell her, she can gladly come get it from the garbage.

Absolutely terrible. Got my belly button pierced and he did not clean it before hand. It was shallow and crooked.

Got my nose pierced here. The owner was very pleasant and friendly. Im a fan.

Very friendly and prices are reasonable would def recommend...

Didnt clean before or after

Went today at 6:30 says they are open till 7 yet they were closed

Best price on piercings, great selection of jewlery and an experienced piercer

Treated my daughter with nothing but respect. Plenty of parking and great prices.

Great selection of jewelry

The man didnt clean my skin prior to piercing my ear. He is so rude and aggressive. I would NOT recommend this to anyone. The man gave me no warning to when he was going to pierce my ear.

The guy tried to take advantage of the fact that I was a college student and tried to charge me $40 just to get my ears pierced!! Dont go to this place

Had to pay 40 to get my dermal removed even though it was done there. Piercings are always great but will never get a dermal again
