I came here to get pierced with my partner. All the staff was very sweet and welcoming! We were pierced by Daisy, who was very professional and made sure we were aware and okay every step of the piercing process. Everything was very sanitary and we were even shown test proof that every single piece of jewelry was sterile. Daisy helped us even though we were both nervous, as it was our first time in a piercing shop. I wish I could’ve left a better tip- next time I get a piercing or jewelry for my existing piercing, I’m coming here. All the pieces were very pretty and very high quality; I got a white gold stud and my partner got titanium earrings. Much love, you guys are amazing.

Great experience with Daisy! I only got my lobes pierced but the whole experience was really well done.Forget the piercing gun at Target or Claires. Daisy spent time measuring and marking in a very deliberate and methodical manner and didnt pierce until everything was properly spaced and even. Besides observing a high standard of sanitation, I was super impressed with the amount of care before piercing. Daisy is a pro and made it as painless as possible. The selection of jewelry is GORGEOUS and well curated, with metals and stones of your choice. I dropped a wad on the jewelry but it was so worth it because its all 14k and 18k. I got the opal flower stud that is divine. From the care and intention with the actual piercing, the service, the expertise, the jewelry selection, and the hospitality, it was worth every penny. I highly recommend you support this amazing local, Latino owned business. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 out of 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽!

I absolutely love Fundamental! I’ve been looking for a clean, reliable and friendly piercer and this is the spot! Cuba has helped me with multiple piercing changes and also did a wonderful job piercing my forward helix. The jewelry quality is the only thing you want to put in your body and is worth the price. 10/10 would recommend anyone to go see Cuba or Daisy for any piercing needs and advice!

Got my nose pierced by Cuba and he was spectacular! He talked me through each of the steps and took so much care to make sure the experience was clean and as painless as possible. My 6 week checkup was done by Daisy and I was equally impressed. I would recommend this shop to anyone thinking of a piercing. The shop selection for jewelry is also really unique and focused on quality.

The staff are really kind and run a beautiful, professional and sanitary space. Grateful this Latinx-owned shop exists, please support them :) They also use very high quality jewelry that is not going to (or much less likely to) cause any kind of allergic reaction.

I absolutely love this place! The service is impeccable. I’ve gotten pierced by Daisy and they were so calm and collected. They made me feel so comfortable when they were assisting me in picking jewelry and when they pierced my ear. I’ve also had the pleasure of having Cuba assist me in styling my piercings and I’m beyond satisfied with all their ideas and suggestions. I get so many compliments on my ears thanks to their help! I constantly recommend the shop to people! I will definitely continue being a customer!

Absolutely loved the place! The Clerk was very forward and helpful with picking out the jewelry and was very patient with me and my girlfriend who went. The professional that did the piercings was incredibly kind and helpful as they could tell I never had a piercing and were patient with me the whole time; only part that dissapointed me was that we couldnt leave a nicer tip. I highly recommend it if you are thinking of getting a piercing most definitely go here!!

Professional, clean, kind — they really went out of the way to make me feel comfortable through the whole process!

Cuba was very professional and knowledgeable.I came in for a septum piercing (previously had pierced in past twice). I had one years ago that was decent and one more recently that was crooked and painful (took out a day after getting it) from 2 other different piercing places.He did an assessment of my nose and told me he could not pierce it because of scar tissue and positioning. I was so bummed, but very grateful for his honesty and professionalism.I definitely want to return when I decide what I want next.Beautiful jewelry selection and super clean!

Loved my piercings experience at Fundamental. I highly recommend Cuba; he walked me through everything and made sure I felt safe every step of the way. A bit pricey & boujee but it’s worth it in my opinion!!!

Kuba and Daisy are the best! Im obsessed with all the jewelry and am a returning customer!

This place is phenomenal! As someone who is new to the piercing world, the staff answered all my questions and gave me advice for caring for my piercing. It is very evident they put their customers above all else. Will certainly be returning for a new piercing soon!

Came in for advise on a piercing done at another shop. Daisy was very kind, honest, and informative in assessing the piercing and next steps. When my skin has healed Ill be getting my piercings done here.

I got my conch pierced here in February and the experience was great. I have low pain tolerance and Daisy made it quick and easy. My ears are quite thin so the piercing began healing wrong due to improper mask wearing but Cuba and Daisy took it out, let it heal, and Daisy repierced it a few weeks later. I love this shop and its the only one I recommend to people now. So sad that I moved from Chicago because getting pierced by this team made me want so many more!

Ive had 4 ear piercings (3 helix, 1 flat) done by Daisy at Fundamental and she is the best. Every time I am there, she and Cuba are both so professional, so kind, and you can tell they put such care into their work. Im also impressed by the high quality jewelry theyre committed to using - worth every penny.

First time peircing went amazing! The only thing that hurt was my bank account but thats to be expected from a high end place.

I had an amazing septum piercing experience with Daisy at Fundamental Body Piercing. The shop is so cute, great selection of jewelry, & super professional. I was talked through the whole process & Daisy was extremely thorough with making sure everything was clean. I could not be happier with the outcome & would recommend Fundamental Body Piercing to anyone getting a piercing! Thank you!

Appointment scheduling was quick and simple. They practiced all safety measures to protect of covid spread. Luis and daisy were amazing to say the least. Luis helped me go threw jewelry options and brought me up to speed since it’s been almost 10 years since I’ve had a piecing. Highly recommend! (Very cool and unique jewelry pieces

Got the rook of my ear pierced here today by Daisy, and she was great! Ill echo what others have said - everything was very COVID safe, even as restrictions are being eased across the city, so that was definitely reassuring. Daisy was awesome as she pierced my ear. I mentioned that I was a little dehydrated just from the weather and she immediately brought me a water bottle. She let me babble nervously throughout the process and gave me breathing instructions the whole way through, and in the end I honestly only ever felt pressure as opposed to pain. Super pleased with the way my piercing looks! Daisy also told me to come back in 4-6 weeks so they could check to make sure everything was healing properly, which isnt something Ive seen consistently with other establishments, so again - very reassuring. Will definitely come back in the future and would absolutely recommend.

Daisy was lovely, but Cuba was not very understanding or patient. Let me expand: Cuba approached my concern for the state of my piercing, which I ended up removing bc of a hypertrophic scar forming(not related to Daisys piercing, just how my body healed) in the same way that medical professionals approach many disabled folks. He dismissed my concerns and what I reported of my own body and told me the bump I was feeling was not actually a keloid. I went to a second piercing shop and a dermatologist who both recommended I remove the piercing to avoid further scarring.Im not disgruntled because of the scarring or bc Cuba assessed it differently than the dermatologist or the other piercer, he is much more experienced than I am in the realm of piercings. It was the dismissive nature of his response and his refusal to accept what I had reported of my own body which was all too reminiscent of the gaslighting Ive experienced by many professionals in the past.If you dont have share my kind of history, then Fundamental Body Piercing seems to know what theyre doing in terms of technique, cleanliness, pricing, etc. But if you want a place with a bit more warmth, understanding and kindness, Id suggest someplace else.

Very clean inside (even the restroom 👏🏽). They offer a great selection of jewelry. Staff was patient answering the questions we had regarding our childs piercing. I definitely recommend.

Got my nostril pierced by Daisy! Very professional and everything was really clean. I really appreciate the calm environment and checkup notice in 4-6 weeks, it’s very reassuring! Will def be coming back here for future piercings :)

I took my daughter here to have her ears re-pierced. They were extremely honest and said the old piercing was still good and saved me the cost. Everything was extremely clean. Cuba and Daisy were as pleasant and nice as anyone I have met in quite some time. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to get piercings.

Lovely atmosphere! My original navel piercing was crooked (got it done at a different shop). Cuba pointed it out when I went in for new jewelry. Two weeks later (after a little healing time for the old piercing), Cuba pierced my navel again and it looks wonderful! I felt super safe and comfortable.

I didnt personally get any work done here, but I was sitting waiting for a friend to get a piercing. Fundamental is as top shelf of a place that Ive been in. Extremely clean, professional and have a huge selection of piercing rings.

I would reccommend this place to anyone looking to get a piercing. The staff is friendly and super chill and helpful. They helped me pick out what jewelry would look best. I got my nostril pierced almost a week ago and it is healing quickly and looks soooo good. When my piercer was marking the spot I asked if it should be further back and they easily explained what would look best for what Im looking for. My boyfriend also got his ears pierced here in Feb. 2020 and they were wonderful then too. When it came to the actual piercing part, it didnt even hurt and I felt super comfortable. Super satisfied, would get pierced here again!

They are very welcoming and helpful. I appreciate their professionalism.

This is the best piercing experience I’ve ever had hands down. Kind, super knowledgeable staff who pay attention to specifics for each client. Very sterile and clean, beautiful jewelry selection too. I would refer anyone looking to get pierced to Fundamental!

Luis and Daisy were wonderful, clean, and very helpful and personable. I came in for a lip piercing to cover a sun spot on my lip and Luis helped acquire other consults to remove that first because the piercing wasnt going to cover it fully. Their selection of jewelry was suburb quality and just stunning, in fact so beautiful that I decided I couldnt leave without getting something done. I decided on my nose and Daisy suggested it too. They helped me pick out the jewelry that would look the best and I love it. Daisy was amazing. I barely felt the needle she was so good and quick. It has been almost 5 hours and I have zero pain! They give excellent after care instructions on a card as well. I cannot wait to come back for my next piercing and jewelry. I even have my friend in my home state of Michigan looking at the jewelry and she was also extremely impressed. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience!

I got my nipples pierced here the other day and the professionalism of the workers helping me was amazing. I never felt uncomfortable and the experience was really welcoming and left me happy and satisfied with my piercing. A great place to go to get real piercing by professionals.

Great service and customer service. I like that booking system for safety. Really excited about my new jewelry!

I went here to get my ears re-pierced and I had a fantastic experience! Everyone was so sweet and this was by far my easiest piercing. I absolutely recommend coming here for anyone who plans on getting a piercing in the future.

I received my first ear lobe piercings from Cuba then Daisy has been stretching my ear lobes. Cuba and Daisy are fantastic and extremely knowledgeable in their trade. I would note, that everyones anatomy is different. My ear lobes decided to eat the o-rings off of my gauges(7 o-rings were inside my ear lobe) and I only recently came into to get my gauges looked at. Cuba and Daisy educated, assisted, and offered recommendations with regards to my gauges. I took their recommendations and scheduled more check ups. We were able to size up my gauges though with the help of my ear lobes. I love this studio!!

I got my conch pierced and received excellent service. They are very clean and professional and have beautiful jewelry. The piercing was quick and painless by Cuba and I love it! I will be coming back and I highly recommend.

100% recommend getting pierced at Fundamental Body Piercing. Incredibly professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely be back for any future piercings or jewelry upgrades.

I had a great experience with Luis and Daisy today!! I wanted a helix piercing but I wear hearing aids so I wasnt sure if it would be possible. Luis took the time to look at my ear and mark the best place for the helix, which coincidentally was the exact spot I wanted the piercing. Daisy did the piercing, and while it hurt, it was over quickly. Daisy did a great job of making me feel comfortable and doing the piercing quickly. It looks great and Im very happy with my experience - I will definitely return for jewelry and any future piercings I decide to get!

GO HERE!!! Fundamental Body Piercing is the only place I will go to for piercings from here on out. This place is so so lovely, Cuba was so helpful and extremely welcoming. Even though I came in late with a friend, Cuba was still able to accommodate us completely. All the pieces are so beautiful and QUALITY!! Price aside, if you value your body, your time, and your worth, come here. Period!! I love this place!!!

Customer service was great made my daughter feel extremely comfortable about getting her piercing done they talk us threw every step and made sure that everything was sanitized

I had the best experience with Luis today! My husband and I walked by with the intention to scan their schedule barcode to make an appointment, and Luis invited me in. He had some availability and after a quick online registration, we were ready to go. The jewelry available was beautiful and exactly what I was looking for. It was also very fairly priced. The space is very clean, relaxing, and aesthetically-pleasing. Luis had my piercing switched out in minutes and I was on my way. I can’t recommend Fundamental enough, they made me feel so comfortable getting this service in these times.

Cuba was really nice and calming Im 13 and got my ears gauded he gave me a little booklet which is helpful

This is the only place to go for piercings in Chicago.They have beautifully curated jewelry, warm, knowledgeable piercers. Cuba has such a gentle touch, a fantastic quality in a piercer!Safety and sanitation are paramount

I was pierced by Lydia and can not express enough how great of a job she did, I absolutely love my conch piercing!Lydia made sure to thoroughly explain step by step what she was doing during the piercing as well as being very comforting and checking on me at all times. Not to mention she was very gentle causing for an all around great experience!If you’re looking for amazing service, a very clean environment and a chill vibe, Fundamental is the place to go!Thanks Lydia for the hospitality and making my ear beautiful!

I accidentally pulled the back off one of my upper ear piercings and lost it, so I stopped in to Fundamental to get a new one and to put my earring back in. The guy at the shop had me in and out in 5 minutes. Really helpful and friendly, and it was so convenient.

Wanted a spontaneous piercing with my friend and we called and he accepted walk ins. We got there and he was extremely friendly and helpful. Super sterile as well. Conch piercing with jewelry $65

Ok seriously this place was great. Cuba was very professional but at the same time incredibly friendly. Took my daughter for a piercing and so far one of the best piercing studio weve been to. Already planning on the next visit.

Stopped in to buy a replacement tragus earring. Employee was extremely helpful and friendly.The selection of jewelry was great! I will be back!

All around just a great spot. You can tell the owner is very knowledgeable and professional yet it’s a very comfortable atmosphere.

Nice and knowledge staff, clean place, good prices... What more could you ask for?
