I was really impressed with MOLA Piercing and Fine Jewelry. I had my earlobes pierced at 13, and never had anything else pierced in the last 20 years! I went to MOLA to get a double helix piercings three months ago.I felt like everything was incredibly sanitary, plus the piercer was experienced.Everyone was very helpful when I went in to have the posts shortened, and needed to come back because one was still swelling.I went in again to get a second earlobe piercing this week. I was very happy with the piercings, plus I was able to have my other question about my helix piercing answered. I wouldnt go anywhere else if I wanted another piercing.

Upper lip piercing and jewelry exchange the staff is always kind helpful and knowledgeable

I took my daughter to get her 2nd lobe piercing and was so impressed! Asia greeted us and was super friendly and helpful. She walked us through all the details and steps. I loved that she really focused on talking to my daughter, since she was picking out her own jewelry and would be responsible for taking care of the piercing. Michael was also great at talking directly to my daughter, making sure she was happy with the placement and giving her options for future piercings. MOLA really excelled at customer service and safety protocols (sterilization). The whole process went perfect! They were even accommodating to my daughters friend who tagged along because she wants to get her ears pierced.

I got my cartilage pierced and I had the best experience! The staff was super knowledgeable and professional. Kay was was dedicated to cleanliness and following regulations. Also the staff’s personality made it feel like a safe, funny and friendly space. I already booked my next appointment.

As a first time client I felt welcomed immediately. My sister and I went to the West Ashley location. Kae and Asia were super helpful with picking out what jewelry we should get and talking to us about how to take care of our piercings. Kae was wonderfully friendly and funny. Their experience in the field was obvious but they were also great with customer interactions. Asia was also a delight. Wonderful at getting to know us and making us feel comfortable. All in all a wonderful experience. Would go back for the wonderful people alone but the piercings do look amazing!

I’ve been to MOLA a few times and have had an amazing experience every time. They are clean, knowledgeable, professional, but also very out going, sweet, and make you feel so comfortable. Making an appointment through their website is super easy and I feel so comfortable every time I walk into their building. Kae is who pierced me and they are so sweet and made sure I had the correct anatomy for my piercing. After years of getting piercings I never knew just how important that was. Asia helped me with all the paper work, picking out jewelry, and pricing. They help so much with any questions I had, aftercare, and how to manage any irritation that may happen. They all respect pronouns, preferred names, and making you feel so comfortable with your body and your anatomy to make sure your piercing looks as amazing as it can. I will never go anywhere else for piercings, I’ve never felt so happy with the outcome and experience of getting one. They also have such a nice selection of good, high quality, and pretty jewelry. I would recommend them to anyone who asked.

I received a nostril piercing here, and I had a great experience! I was really nervous about it, but Kae and Asia were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and they helped me push past it! The studio was clean and the jewelry is great quality. I’ll be coming back in the future! Highly recommend and worth the prices.

Kae and Asia were fantastic. I came in with my mom initially for her navel piercing and they were both extremely knowledgeable about the process and helping her pick out the right jewelry. I thought the experience was so great that I came back a few days later to get my nose pierced! I even showed early and they were able to accommodate me before the next person showed up! I’ll definitely be coming back for future piercings.

My daughter and I went to the Summerville location; it was a great experience! I had my nose pierced and my daughter had her helix pierced. Brian and Alisa were extremely friendly and professional. They put us at ease through the whole process and we are so happy with our piercings! Highly recommend MOLA!

Awesome customer service! Very cool and personable people. Only just met Kae and Asia, but it felt like I’d known them for years! They made the experience super comfortable and fun!

The two who helped me today were simply wonderful. I was nervous about getting my piercing and they both were very helpful, open, and fun! It was a very comfortable environment and I would highly recommend getting any piercings here. If I plan on getting more I know where I’m coming back too!

My mom and I both got some additional ear piercings here and the experience was amazing! The staff was so courteous and helpful—the woman at the front desk was great and asked awesome questions to help me decide what earrings best fit my style, and the woman who did my piercings was so kind and calm and really set me at ease. The process for booking an appointment online through their website was super easy and efficient. Highly recommend!!

I can’t say enough amazing things about my piercer, Kae- friendly, professional and made the entire experience enjoyable. I was visiting from out of town and Kae took the extra time to find a professional shop in my town to go to incase I had any questions afterwards and needed someone local. Most people don’t take the the time to go out of their way like that but Kae did. 10/10 would recommend MOLA!

I was so excited to come in and get my vertical labret piercing, and michael did such a great job! he was very helpful and explained everything i needed to know; it made me feel very safe; i knew i was in good hands! (he was also very patient, as i was a little antsy.) thank you for your hard work and dedication!! you ROCK!!!🖤🖤

I got 2nd lobe piercings done by Kae and was so happy with the experience! They were so kind after I mentioned being nervous around needles and made the effort to distract me from how nervous I was. The piercings turned out so well, and I’m already planning to go back for a helix one. Awesome studio.

I got two piercings from MOLA today and I love them so much! The piercer was very professional and knowledgeable and so kind!! Most fun I’ve ever had at a piercing place.

Excellent group of people. Very professional. Helped my 7 year old face her fear but get what she wanted with ear piercings. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you so much.

The receptionist was extremely rude. They are trying to keep things sterile, but they dont need to be rude about it. They dont even keep hand sanitizer out. The woman who actually did the piercing was very nice.

This place is so cute and extra clean. The staff was awesome and made my mom and sister feel so comfortable while getting their nose pierced. Their jewelry is top of the line and comes with a warranty. Would absolutely recommend!

Everyone was beyond kind and knowledgeable!! Couldn’t be happier with the jewelry and the whole experience.

Wanted a nose piercing. 3 employees smoking outside. Only allow piercing by appointments… glad to see they are so busy enough to turn away paying customers.

LAURA and ALISA are the BESTT!!!!! I was so nervous and a baby about some lil ear piercings but they made me feel so calm and helped me pick out the perfect jewelry. I had a horrible Claires experience as a child and Laura reassured me this would be much much better and it TRULY was. Please go to them for all your piercing needs you will not be disappointed.

Super friendly and welcoming environment! Kae was awesome and went through each step with me to make sure I was comfortable! Had a great first experience.

I got my nose pierced 3 years ago for the first time. They told me what they were doing every minute and made me feel so comfortable. I went and re-pierced it today and got the same comfort. The care they put into what they do truly shows. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

The ladies there were very knowledgeable, courteous, and serviced my needs quickly......THank you so much it was my first time and I will be back

Micheal was very knowledgeable and friendly! He did a great job, the vertical labret looks sooooo good! Tyty

Nice clean shop, but no sales without an appointment. Frustrating if youre visiting from far away, but probably fine if you live nearby.

I was extremely fortunate to meet Brian Gillespie today to get my Daith pierced. Top notch service, excellent and highly professional piercer. Brian makes you feel at ease with his cool, calm and collective presence. Explained everything that was occurring during and after the entire procedure. Asia at the front of house helped me pick out a stunning piece as well that I fell in love with before hand. Sterilized it and was highly professional, sweet and knowledgeable about the pieces and products! This business is very Covid conscious and really cares about keeping their customers safe. I will be back a million times and will refer MOLA to everyone on the Eastern seaboard. Thank you guys for being so damn cool!

My son (6yrs) and I came in to have our ear lobes pierced. As always, the staff was warm and welcoming upon our arrival. After picking out our jewelry, Laura greeted us and brought us to a room. She was so great with my nervous, little guy. She explained everything she was doing so he could fully understand, as she pierced me first. When it was his turn he jumped in the chair with no hesitation. Not one tear shed, and he was absolutely thrilled with the results! Such a wonderful experience and now a great memory we’ll share forever! Thank you so much for taking care of us both!

Very welcoming and clean environment, friendly and helpful staff. 10/10 would go again

This experience exceeded my expectations!!! Classy, professional and lots of fun!! I truly recommend this business to anyone wanting top notch service❤❤❤

I wouldn’t go to any other place in Charleston to get a piercing. Everyone is always very inviting and super chill. They’re very professional here and I’m definitely coming back for more ^__^

At first I was extraordinarily anxious about getting this done. The staff was super understanding, friendly and were able to talk me through this. Everything was super clean and comfortable. They were fine with me taking a moment after the first piercing (which honestly was not painful, maybe mildly uncomfortable.) They were able to switch my appointment with a friend’s upon request and even took us in early. They cleaned in between us which was made the process a whole lot easier. Overall, an amazing experience! Thank you!

I love this place !!! Prices are great and the employees are fabulous. Very attentive to your every concern. I will recommend them to everyone. I will be back.😁

Great shop, lovely jewelry and knowledgeable piercers.

I really like MOLA. Their body jewelry is super high quality and just plain feels different than other jewelry I’ve worn in my nose. Legit stuff.

They were super nice and professional. I got some beautiful titanium stud earrings and they put them in for me. They made sure that they were anodized to the same color as my septum jewelry.

Phenomenal staff and super clean rooms. I will be back for all my piercing needs!

I called to make an appointment for 6 piercings. Due to Covid I ordered fine earrings on line from a fine jeweler so I wouldn’t spend much time in this place with a mask on, trying to choose earrings and sizes, but was told that I had to buy their products to have it done. I told them that it sounds like you don’t want my business. I will take it elsewhere!

Highly recommend! Friendly staff, clean and nice space, great quality jewelry - overall very happy. I was a little nervous before my piercing but was made to feel totally at ease. I’ll definitely be going back!

So very plesent and very sanitary

Nice staff, helped my daughter with her piercing.

Entire staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming from the second I walked in the door. Can’t wait to visit again!

Just went in for a piercing change & was very pleased with the amount of selection, the expertise of not only the piercer but also the person handling the reception area. Great service, very clean, very organized regarding their website & location.

Great service, excellent jewelry selection.

High quality jewelry, knowledgeable and friendly foh, and only piercer i will see

Store is clean and jewelry is well showcased. Lovely jewelry selections albeit a bit pricey. Janelle is wonderful. The owner, eh. My recommendation is to ask for a written receipt with the printout receipt.

13 piercings between me and my wife and all have been an amazing experience! Great staff,service and jewlery.

I needed a replacement Monroe piercing and the ladies (especially Kae) were very nice and knowledgeable! Ill go back!

People were really friendly and helpful

I love this place! While their prices are higher then other places its completely worth it. Ill definitely be going back for more.

I had recently gotten a septum piercing from another place, that my friend recommended, but it didnt look quite right to me and was hurting a bit, so I called here and Brian took a look at it for me, super friendly and really cool people. I am very grateful

I started going here maybe.. a year and a half ago? And they have been absolutely perfect. Have never had any issues with any piercing, or piece of jewelry. Definitely a little more on the expensive side but 100% worth it. Will only ever go here for any piercings or jewelry.

Although this shop is on the pricey end, the jewelry is high end and the piercers are fabulous! They are very knowledgeable about placement as well as the jewelry they offer. Just be prepared to pay more if you want something other than a plain barbell. I shelled out nearly $500 on two cartilage piercings, most of that being the jewelry I chose, as you can see in the pic.

Great experience today. Very clean and welcoming. Would recommend!

I would highly recommend this place! I had seen the great reviews and decided to get my second holes done here. I am so glad I did! Rebekah was incredible! She made me feel at ease throughout the entire thing and gave me very thorough information about the type of earrings they use versus ones you may get at other piercing places, as well information about taking care of my new piercings. The man assisting me in the front was also incredibly helpful and nice. Overall I could not have asked for a better or easier experience. I am definitely considering getting my cartilage pierced and if I can get up my courage, I will absolutely be back! Thank you again!

We got our daughters ears pierced yesterday. She got her second hole. She was able to make custom earrings. They were very clean and professional. They have a life time warranty (no questions). I highly recommend Museum of Living Arts Body Piercing. We had Rebekah and she talked to my daughter so she understood. She was so nice and friendly. This was after Claire’s messed up several years ago. We will be back in the future.

I just had my Daith pierced by Laura she did an amazing job, she is very informative and knows what she is doing!! The experience was wonderful and the place is so peaceful, relaxing and very very clean! I will definitely be going back for all my piercings needs. Plus they have a great selection of jewelry!

Excellent service and staff, even better high end jewelry selection. every piercing i have has been done by them, along with all the jewelry i wear.worth every penny.

Jennifer did my tragus and my sister’s nose. She was awesome! Very sweet and professional and explained the healing and piercing processes really well. The shop is super sanitary and they had a good selection of jewelry, including cost effective options. It was a great experience and I 10/10 recommend going here :)

Got my septum done here today!! Made me feel so welcome, safe and comfortable :) will be back soon!!

Laura is great. Its clean, and she was super helpful in helping stay in my budget. Also made me feel very comfortable, and did a great job on what I wanted. Thanks!

This place is one of the cleanest and most professional shop anywhere near.I have been considering a piercing for about five months after visiting numerous piercing studio in the surrounding area. I was blown away by the level of professionalism and overall knowledge not to mention the extremely high quality of the jewelry sold.Rebekah made me feel like an old friend and walk me through the entire process from beginning to end.it’s true you get what you pay for.And I had a unbelievably great customer experience !

Amazing staff! Theyre super sweet and so nice, love the vibe over all and the piercing was amazing

I have a question, can you guys do nose piercings on very mature 12 year olds? I could not find anything about age.

Jennifer at this location is AWESOME. She is so sweet and makes you feel very comfortable before and during your piercing process. I would highly recommend her if you are going to get something done.

Super awesome staff, extremely sterile conditions, and quick piercing made it a wonderful experience!!

First of all, the studio itself was spotless and well-organized. The piercing room was very clean and my piercer made sure to sterilize all the tools she was going to use in front of me as she explained the process and after-care. She was very relaxed and seemed comfortable with what she was doing, which was great. She answered all of my questions happily. Overall it was an easy process and easy on the wallet. I would be quick to name it one of the best professional piercing shops in the Charleston area.

Of all the piercing studios Ive been to, the Museum of Living Arts has been the best. I came here, after a coworker highly recommended them, to redo my ears and see about a Rook that had been giving me issues.The studio itself was very clean and tasteful. My artist was also extremely professional, and knowledgeable. I ended up getting a longer barbell for my Rook and it has made a world of difference. The prices arent bad either. I would recommend the Museum of Living arts to anyone looking to get a new piercing.

Kae was amazing.

Had my eyebrow pierced today. Michael and Laura are the best! Beyond happy with my piercing. Can’t wait until it heals so I can go back and pick out some cute jewelry!

Jennifer pierced my septum several weeks ago, and I adore it! She did such an amazing job and was very particular (which I loved) and made sure that I knew exactly how the after care would be- very informative on what to expect. Thank you Jennifer! You rule!

I went to visit the shop on Halloween and was OVERLY IMPRESSED. I don’t think I can go anywhere but here to get my next piercings. I came in to get an anti tragus piercing and to have a piercing removed that was not done properly from another shop. The whole entire energy when walking into the door is awesome. The shop is so clean and professional and the jewelry offered is very beautiful and high quality. The piercer and the receptionist were so professional and helpful. I walked in with a piercing nightmare (from another shop) and walked out OVERLY AMAZED. I love my new anti tragus piercing so much. This shop deserves 5 STARS!!!!!!

Awesome people. Very clean establishment.

Museum of Living Arts is a wonderful place to get pierced! The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. They go above and beyond to help you get the right jewelry and piercings. I highly recommend!

Google recommended it and Im glad I listened....Place is super duper clean, Michael is very professional & knowledgeable! They made me feel at home from the time I came in the bldg. I was a prematurely apprehensive. I highly recommend this place❣

Janelle was amazing! Great customer service and very knowledgeable staff! I love my new jewelry 😊

Laura and Brian are amazing. So knowledgeable and very professional. Will be back for all my piercing needs and their kindness!

They were so polite, helpful, gave me step by step instructions and were very nice ladies to talk to. Came back again last week and got the same amazing experience for my septum piercing!

Great selection of jewelry, very friendly employees, I got my septum pierced and it was nearly painless. I was in and out in 20 minutes or so. Employees answered my questions thoroughly and made me feel comfortable.

Went in today to replace my septum jewelry as I lost the ball on mine. Were on vacation, so I just googled a parlor to get the right jewelry and picked the closest one. I am happy that it was MOLA. I was so impressed. Brian was friendly and very knowledgeable about the jewelry. Michael was very skilled and quite gentle while replacing the jewelry. If I had had time to get new piercings, I wouldve gotten some just because these two were great.

Took my daughter to get a septum piercing. Very professional, clean, friendly, and Jenn did a beautiful job. Thank you🤗

It has been a week since I have gotten my cheeks pierced at Museum of Living Arts, I do not regret it! The quality of the piercing is phenomenal. I have had no problem with infection of any sorts. Laura gave me great tips and info on how to care for my cheeks during the healing process, which helped a bunch! The shop was well cleaned and gave off a great vibe. The process of the piercing was quick and thorough, would you believe it didnt hurt? I recommend this shop over any other in Charleston, because of the friendly and professional atmosphere and the knowledge they have about piercing. 2 thumbs up for Museum of Living Arts!

Did an amazing job, Brian and Ursela helped me out and I love my jewelry and the piercing. Definitely will come back.

I went here for a daith piercing, I explained that I suffer from migraines. The girl was very honest, piercing is not a medical treatment. Its mostly a placebo effect.If you dont love the look of a piercing dont do it. Her honesty was refreshing, she could of taken my money did piercing and went about her day. But she didnt! So although I didnt get a piercing, for those that love piercing I recommend this place. The space was extremely clean and staff will not waste your time or your money.

I got my nose pierced yesterday as a Christmas present and couldnt be happier. The shop is clean, no dust on anything. The earrings and such are nicely organized. The people are super professional and nice. The guy who pierced my nose was very informative and wonderful. It was a pleasant experience all around.

This was my second visit here and theres no reason to go anywhere else. Very clean, helpful and friendly

I first heard about MOLA from a friend of mine at school. After just walking in the door everyone is so friendly and willing to help you! I have now had three different piercings done here and was and still am so happy with them! The amount of information they tell you and give you after the piercing is very helpful. After each piercing I know exactly how to care for them without any complications! I love it there and recommend them to anyone even thinking about getting something done. They are fantastic!

Great atmosphere and wonderful experience! I highly recommend this shop. The technique was sterile and explained step-by-step throughout the process. Beautiful, high quality earrings. It was hard to choose which to get!

Definitely the best place to get pierced in Charleston

Got my 2nd hole in my ear done a few weeks ago at Heat Street in Florence while visiting my parents out of town. They recommended that I come here if I had any questions or any issue came up. Came here today to get my 3rd hole in each ear. Rebekah took great care of me and made my ears look ever better than before! If I decide to get another piercing Ill definitely be returning here!

I got my septum pierced Saturday and Im so happy I went here. The lady at the front desk (didnt catch her name unfortunately) answered a million questions for me about this piercing and a couple others I had done there years ago and about different types jewelry. I was pretty nervous because septums seem like a difficult spot to pierce but Jeff was really thorough and professional, and he did an amazing job. My piercing is perfect and I love it so much, thank you!

Very unique jewelry, was nervous about getting a piercing but I explained everything to Richard there. He was able to feel at ease and was able to get what I wanted done.. Nice friendly.. I defiantly would recommend and of course I myself will be back to get a few more....

I have been here for multiple piercings and I have referred several friends here because I want them to have a great experience also. The rooms are kept clean and the workers are very sanitary. The piercings are done well and the workers make sure you know how to take care of them. If youre looking for a good place to get a new piercing, this is the place to go. The only place I will go.

Compared to the piercing parlors I went to in Charlotte, NC Living Arts is overpriced and the selection of jewelry in my size is small. Ive been to both locations and wasted both my money and time, leaving completely unsatisfied with no resolution. Today I told them I didnt like the color of the ring they attempted to dye gold for me. They tried to sell me another ring for double the price of the first one I am currently unhappy with and were going to dye this one too. I walked to cut my losses. $62 later I am stuck with this bronze, tarnished-looking ring in my septum until I can find a better look somewhere else.

I got my industrial done at Museum of Living Arts yesterday. Rebecca was amazing. It was my first cartilage piercing and she walked me through everything. She was funny and very professional, pretty much alleviating me of any nervousness I had about the entire thing. The service was wonderful, everything was clean. I will definitely be coming back to get more piercings done.

Laura is amazing and super helpful. She helped me with a piercing I had done before I moved to Charleston and I came back for my septum piercing. She hit the sweet spot and it didnt hurt at all and healed up beautifully. Ill be back for more piercings!

Incredibly rude and condescending staff. To insult me literally less than a minute after walking into the shop without even asking my name or finding out anything about me or my experience with my pirecings is not a way to earn business . If you truly want to educate your potential customers, make them feel welcome first, and show them that youre interested in helping rather than talking down to them without even standing up from the desk .

Was good

This place is great!! I saw Janelle and she was awesome. I had so many questions and was afraid to get a nose piercing but she was super helpful and nice and did a great job, also her music was the great and gave the place a great feel!!
