I had a all my ear piercings done here about 20 years ago in 2002. They did a great job, never had an issue with any of them. About to get my nose pierced and I still see good reviews of this place. I might have to make a trip to Boulder! Great place for piercings! They also customer made a lot of the ear jewelry I have worn over the last 2 decades. I cant find any comparable place.
Have been trusting K&K for my piercings for 20+ years. Had a navel piercing about 20 years ago (they had to fix a prior, improperly done, navel piercing) that I still have. Recently returned several times (worth traveling an hour each way) for a nostril piercing and helix piercing for myself and a conch piercing for my daughter. Mike is so skilled, carefully deciding location and angle for best presentation and so swift, it’s done before you realize. Clean and professional - will continue to be where we go for piercings!
Had a great experience here. They offer walk-ins which is convenient and the staff is helpful. The prices are reasonable too: I got both my ear lobes pierced and paid $50, earings included. Would definitely recommend it over Iris.
Found this place after not having the best experience at Iris piercing. All I can say is- get your piercing here! Very professional and knowledgeable- I was even told I was wearing some of my earrings too tight! My piercing is healing really well.
I get all of my piercings here and absolutely love it. The environment is clean, they know what theyre doing and are super kind. Prices are reasonable for the quality of jewelry they have on hand
I have had over 20 piercings in my lifetime. I was nervous at first glance. But after chatting with Tony, I was ready. I got my vertical labret done again after being retired for 5 years. Tony did it in seconds, after seeing the jewelry was a little big. He changed it out, reversed the piercing gauges without any pain. I am so impressed, I will be making a special trip just to K & K for all my future piercings. Tony, you rock!!!
Was a little hesitant to get my 6 year old’s ears pierced for the first time at a piercing/head shop, but they came highly recommended by several sources. They were very professional and helpful. They were great with my daughter and very reassuring and comforting when she was nervous. I would highly recommend them.
Koko is the best! always such a sweet and warm presence whenever i come into the shop. tony is the best piercer ever!! gentle hands and a soft touch with the needle, never had such an amazing piercing experience before these guys!
Had my first K&K experience today! The staff was empathetic, inviting, and knowledgeable. My eyes watered during my nose piercing and the guy even wiped my tears for me lol! The prices were more than agreeable and the environment was CLEAN! This is now my go-to place.
The best customer service in the area. They want what will look best rather than what could further their careers on Instagram.
Its was ok went late at night With a friend getting piercing experience was OK not the best communication but got it figured out and overall decent experience
Went in on a recommendation from a friend and I am so glad we did. Tony was amazing! He pierced my daughter’s ears. He was kind, patient and professional. He put her at ease despite how nervous she was for the piercing. The shop was super clean as well. It was a great experience for her and I highly recommend Tony and Mike!
I have known these guys for many years, they are good at what they do and are worth every penny.
Legitimately the best service at a piercing shop ever, - my fiances words. They custom ground a piercing for my fiance right there on the spot. Been open since 1991 and they know service!! Thank you guys.
Mike pierced both my nipples and was fantastic! He was quick, professional, gentle and patient with me. It was practically painless and he handled my nervousness with grace. I couldn’t be happier with the experience!! Thank you
They do incredible, reliable, trustworthy work. Ive been a loyal customer for 20 years. Unfortunately the owner is sensitive about some issues so dont rock the boat.
Best shop in town. Talk to Mike he knows what’s up!
Id waited 38 years and until 10pm on a night of a snow storm to get my ears pierced, but these guys were open for business, had great atmosphere, and were super friendly, clean, and efficient. Definitely recommend.
I’ve gotten all my piercings here! Awesome place located in a cool spot. The people who work here are nice and professional!
These guys are so great. Made my daughters re-piercing experience painless and fun. Better than Claires for sure.
Super helpful! Went in for questions about my piercing and they went above and beyond. The vibes are good.
A Boulder institution! Hands down!Ive been a client/customer of theirs since the mid 90s.Great place for first piercings! I took my younger sister there to have her ears done when she was a tiny kid! She didnt even flinch!The gentlemen are always, always so accommodating, and the customer service is top-notch.Plus! Post piercing candy! Whats better than that?!Thank you for ALL of the years, guys!
I went to K&K to get a conch piercing. Tony was my piercer and I couldnt be happier with the service! Tony and all the other employees displayed utmost professionalism, especially in the times of COVID. He was kind and carefully walked me through the piercing and after care process. I was fully informed about everything the whole time. I would absolutely recommend K&K to anyone considering a piercing.
The piercer was great he was gentle and i love my piercing i got my lip and my ear done. But i also bought papers from there and they where not good papers but all in all great place and very kind staff
K & K is a fantastic little spot in Boulder. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and kind. I had my nose pierced here three years ago and had an excellent experience. I went in yesterday for a new nose ring and the staff was still the same and super awesome!
Really professional and great experience
I love this place It’s the only place I will ever go to to get anybody piercings done they have been doing this for so long and they are the cleanliness place that you will ever go to. Tony is by far one of the best piercers I have ever met he’s so artistic and so patient and makes you feel very safe and reassured. I got my industrial piercing from Mike and he was also very talented when Tony was not around a lot of my friends have gotten belly buttons nipples and nose piercings they are by far the best
Tony took care of me real well. This place is clean and sanitary. The service was quick, clear, and to the point. Not too much side talk. It was my first piercing and tony definitely made me feel welcome despite my ignorant questions. He was helpful as well as kind too. I certainly recommend this place to anyone who has never gotten a piercing and is nervous about it. Thank you Tony. This was a great experience
I have been going here for years now and they have always done such an amazing job. They are very caring and kind and do a great job at explaining how to keep piercings clean. I have gotten 5 different piercings myself from them and have gotten many of my friends to get piercing there and have had no issues! They also have great jewelry and great pricing!
I came in to talk about a piercing that I received at a shop in Dallas (NOT K&K!!!) and I talked to Tony. Tony helped me out with getting rid of keloids, gave me ointment for free, and sold me cleaning solution. Going back in 3 weeks for a piercing done by them! Super helpful people and they provide check ups on your piercings!!!
I had a great experience here! I got my second and third earlobe piercing on both of my ears. My piercer (I want to say his name was Mike?) was very kind and took his time drawing where he was going to pierce, making sure it looked okay to me; and then readjusting as he felt needed. The cost was on the pricier end ($100) but for the quality I got, no problems with healing, and kindness from Mike I think this was well worth it. He assured me before I left if I had ANY problems whatsoever, that I call him or stop in. I will be back!
Such a cute little place! I recently went in for some septum jewelry and the customer service was excellent :)
I got a tragus piercing by Tony. He was excellent! I was nervous and he was calm and professional and helped to make me feel comfortable! Highly recommended!
So kind, helpful and clean. Love these people so much!
Had to write a review because Ive been coming to these guys for jewelry and piercing care for years now and I couldnt recommend anyone else. They are the coolest cats on the hill and knowing them has been a true blessing. Theyve made me feel comfortable an have became great friends. I wish good luck to this business! And Ill be back soon for more 😭💕
They sell horrible tobacco! Their products aren’t original!!
Ive had several piercings done here with no issue. Everyone that works here is knowledgeable & friendly. They have a wide selection of jewelry at reasonable prices. I wouldnt recommend anyone else.
Amazing service!!! Very professional.
I’ve been going to K & K for piercings for five years now, and they’re the best! Mike, the piercer, is absolutely amazing. He can customize anything. It’s a tiny shop, but its got a huge heart and great service! I love K & K :)
This place is great! My friend and I both had sensitive parts of our bodies pierced which can be really intimidating. Tony wowed us with his professionalism and experience. I would recommend anyone go here for any piercing!
Great experience! Mike pierced my triple forward helix (after Iris piercing said it wouldnt fit my anatomy). It looks great, and I love it! The place is owned by 3 brothers and their dad - they were all super warm and friendly. Not at all one of those sketchy piercing places. Definitely recommend them!
The staff was super nice and understanding. Very patient with me. And taught me how to fix my stretches (because apparently my last piercer messed up). Ill be honest I was a bit weirded out that its also a hookah shop. But, Im glad I went.
Great piercing service from the men who own this little shop; theyre extremely personable and make the process as easy as possible. I knocked them one star because of their jewelry quality. Yes, their jewelry is less expensive than other places in the area, but you get what you pay for. I bought a seamless septum ring that I was told was 14k gold, but it was never mentioned that the ring was gold-plated. Which, in case youre unfamiliar, means that the gold plating will rub off after enough continuous wear. Then you just have a basic, discolored, crappy-quality metal ring in a still-fresh wound. Im only writing this review to encourage people to really understand jewelry quality before buying. Ask questions of your piercer. Know the difference between solid gold, gold-plated, and gold-filled. Have high expectations of your experience, and dont settle on anything that isnt exactly what you want just because its $10 cheaper than the place around the corner.Overall, I had a positive experience here, but I was unhappy with the quality of my jewelry.
Excellent!Loved this place. Wonderful, warm, knowledgeable staff. Huge selection of jewelry.My Mom and I treated each other to a nose piercing. She is 70, Im 50. They did a fabulous job with both of us. We absolutely love our pretty nose studs. I cant imagine a better place to have had this done!
Charged me $70 for a septum piercing and forced me to buy cleaner I already had. I couldn’t even leave a fair tip because I was basically robbed blind. Tribal rights does it for $35
They did a great job with the piercing. Very knowledgeable and plenty of aftercare guidance. Ill be going back for another soon.
Very kind and polite. They take their piecing seriously, and dont rush things. We spent nearly 20 minutes making sure that placement was 100% perfect and that I was completely happy, which meant a lot to me. They also took a lot of time letting me pick out jewelry and explaining all of the cleaning procedures and their importance.They did my cheek/dimple piercings and I will definitely be returning for all of my jewelry and future piercings!I didnt have enough money for a tip worthy of the service as well as the cleaning supplies, so I decided I would rather tip and just clean with antibacterial hand soap until I got paid again. After they saw the tip, they actually chased after us to give me the bactiene for free! So kind!I have had a ton of compliments on my piercings already, and they are healing up nicely! I couldnt be happier!
Ive had many (7+) piercings done by these guys! So knowledgeable!! Somehow my piercings from them heal much much faster than others. The best. Highly recommend them.
Went here a year ago with my girlfriend. She had inverted nipples and had read all the great reviews for this location. The service is extremely professional, and his technique is nearly medical level. We returned a year later to loosen the nipples piercings which he did for free, again very professional and sanitary. He is worth every penny. Also her nipples are no longer inverted.
Tony has done all of my piercings since I could remember. About a year ago I was going to school and needed to take infection control. I asked tony if he could teach my about his autoclave (the machine they use to sterilize the instruments) he was more than happy to. He walked me through the entire infection control process, needless to say I aced my test and will forever be grateful to this establishment. Thank you!
Got my ears and one of my nipples pierced here. best & cheapest spot to get piercings on the hill! all piercings healed quickly and staff is very friendly. jewelry selection is large and it doubles as a head shop. highly recommend for quick piercings.
Rude service when I calmly went it to share about my experience with their jewelry turning my nose green. The clerk told me I was misrepresenting the details about the affect occurring after just a few days, saying it would take months. I found his attitude and refusal to hear my experience unprofessional. I’m not happy with a $35 ring making my nose green, seems simple.
Forget his name but guy was excellent doing my wifes piercings! She said no pain and he did 3 sensitive lady parts!
Tony is amazing!! He did a dermal for me and pierced my nipples. He was nice, professional and he is very good at what he does. He helped me relax, it was as painless as possible. Best prices in Boulder too!
Love this place. Been here twice for my nipple piercings. Never had problems either time. Very knowledgable guys who own the place. Comfortable atmosphere. Great customer service! Will definitely be back for future piercings
Wonderful place to get a piercing! I was in and out in 15 minutes for a nose piercing. Exceptional customer service, professional atmosphere, very clean and they did an amazing job! I was really impressed and would recommend them to anyone.
I had a great experience with K and K piercing. The guys were really nice and even offered to hold my hand because It was my first time. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to get pierced!!!
Best shop around. Have come here for all my pierces and tonight my daughter just got her ears pierced. Love these guys!!!!
I went in here looking for a bellybutton ring and was helped by the younger of the two men there. He was very friendly and even helped me put the new jewelery in(as I had been changing jewelry out and hadn’t had one in for a few days which had made the piercing a bit irritated) he also gave me a packet of ointment to apply to help calm the irritation without me even asking. They have a huge variety of jewelry to choose from and were very helpful and friendly. Will be returning!
The best place to get pierced by far. They have years of experience and the guys are super great. They offer a nice selection of jewelry as well.
I go here for all of my piercings. They are super clean and super professional.One of my friends ears got infected from a previous piercing, and they fixed her up without any questions, free of charge.Their prices are good for the quality.
This place is awesome! My mom, sister, and myself all got piercings by Mike, and he did an awesome job on everybody! We all love our piercings and will definitely be going back for anything else we might get done!
Went for my first non lobe piercing, and industrial. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. My aunt, a registered nurse, went with me and loved how safe and clean they were. I would highly recommend it
Talk about friendly!!!!! This ppace rocks. Went in for first time gauge piercing and the staff was so incredibly friendly. They walk you through every step and what to expect. They answered every question i had and you could tell they were clearly experts. 5 star without a doubt. Wont go anywhere else.
They are the best piercing place in Boulder! I love them so much. So helpful, always so nice, and fix any piercing problem with no pain. I really can not thank them enough.
Best custom Jewelry...Best prices..Best at what they do! Ty, Mike, Tony and Nikko
The Best! Love you guys! I wont go anywhere else for my piercing needs.
They are the best piercing shop i know, and theyre great people. They can be a bit overpriced, but they know what theyre doing and the risk of infection is little to none. I honestly wish they were tattoo artist too!!
Of course you want your piercings placed just so and these guys at K&K are consistently right on the money with respect to precise and professional work. They will guide you toward that cool addition youre pondering. You wont have to worry thru your piercing journey either because everything is explained. go ahead, adorn yourself at boulders very best .. I have and wouldnt think of going anywhere else
Staff was super friendly and helpful, took my earrings up a size and watched as my friend got her cartilage done, good place and good people, very good at what they do and take cleanliness and customer care very seriously
At first I was kind of Skeptical going there but they ended up fixing my wrongly sized belly button ring from another piercer. They are very informational, nice, and funny! I am for sure going back there for any future questions and piercings!
My daughter wanted her ears pierced and several people recommended K&K. My daughter was scared at first, but they were so kind to her and by the end she was calm and happy. Her ears look great and the experience was very positive.
Cool little shop. Got my first piercing done for the first time and I was perfectly at home doing it even though I never saw myself getting them done.
AWESOME!!!!! The employees are amazing, very welcoming, family-like,and so cool! got my second piercings, didnt feel a thing! I HIGHLY recommend this place over claires and all of the other ones. NOBODY BEATS K&K! :D
Very small, very cramped. Cheap prices, but I dont know if thats necessarily a good thing. The owners were too pushy about making a quick sale, which can be pretty off putting when you want to take your time and find just the right piece. They also have an okay selection of cheap glassware for all you smokers. Worth walking into at least once.
Best shop in boulder. Equally great services.
These guys are super friendly and laid back! Great place to look for glass, earrings, etc. Keep it up!
I got my nose pierced here 6 weeks ago. Now I should have done more research on my own beforehand, but I thought that my piercer, being much more knowledgeable than me, would mention it if a hoop was a bad decision. So I get pierced with a hoop and immediately get a terrible and painful irritation bump that continues to grow. I come to find out that no other shops in the area (and no reputable shops anywhere) will pierce you with a hoop because it is so problematic to heal. I also learn that I was pierced with ‘surgical steel’ which can contain nickel and cause irritation. To top it off, k&k gave me bactine and bacitracin zinc ointment to heal my piercing, which I come to find out is also a horrible practice that no reputable piercers recommend because it does not promote healing. I took out the hoop and am letting the piercing close up and will go to Iris (a reputable piercer) to get it re-done. I am appalled at the complete ignorance of best practices and lack of knowledge/client education at K&K.
I love k&k. First time going definitely not the last! Everything was super clean, everyone Is unbelievably nice, and the guy made the peircing process seem like no big deal. Deffinately going back!
Tony was my piercer. He was extremely professional and also calm and patient. I highly recommend K&K Piercing!
Love these guys. Super nice and theyll pierce anything. Ears, noses, foreheads, fiveheads, dingdongs, ginies, taints, boobies. You name it...theyll stick something metal through it all while not charging you too much. Plus theyre hilarious.
Best piercing artists in town
Took me and the girls to get ear piercings, we were treated with the utmost respect, had a great time, great price, very professional, made great memories.....Mike was fantastic, would definitely get more piercing here
Wouldnt allow anyone else to do any of our piercings. Tony and Mike are amazing and always take their time with us.
Did a great job piercing it but was unsure about cleanliness of area
Didn’t feel a thing.
Best place on the hill
This is the spot.
Great work
Good people
Thank you
