Lovely job with the piercings! With proper care I’ve always had a smooth healing process from all the piercings I’ve had here! Quick and efficient setup that covers all the information you need and gets it done fast. Always helpful with any issues that popped up afterwards. My go too for any peircing.
Made me come into the shop to set an appointment. Fine, no problem get there and no artist had time to look at my wanted tattoo. It was 15 minutes after open and nobody was really busy. Said Id have to come back again. I went two miles down the road and went to PAIN FOR SALE. GOT WHAT I WANTED NO HASSEL
Incredible experience!! Walked in and immediately was greeted by the most friendly lady. Basically zero wait time, Andrew was super helpful because I was indecisive as to what side to do what. Got my nose and tragus pierced - no pain and I was in & out in no time! A mom and her two little girls were leaving as I got there and no tears from either one after getting their ears pierced. Highly recommend Screaming Needle and Andrew in particular!!
We had our girls ears pierced and they were great! We were told first come first serve for piercings, but we were in and out in an hour. Im glad I called ahead because they ask for a birth certificate for minors and I wouldnt have thought to bring them.
Great environment. Megan was amazing and sweet handling everything up front. Ive had 2 tattoo appointments done with Eden and both experiences made me excited to schedule more. Incredible work. Ill definitely be returning in the future.
I have went to the Plainfield location three times now during the 2 for 30$ piercing deal on Tuesday. Andrew is a really nice person, but over time, the more I have educated myself on piercings and piercing etiquette the more I realized how many things are done wrong.I have gotten a forward helix, conch, two helix, and a septum and side of nose piercing there. The septum is the only one that has healed okay. I got three of my piercings pierced with hoops, and every one got a bump or got infected and split skin. If a piercing shop offers hoops as an option for a first piercing, they most likely don’t know what they’re doing, or only offer it because it’s a popular option. They pierce with the wrong jewelry a good 85% of the time. Two of my piercings got infected because I had a butterfly back earring put in my outer cartilage, which is horrible for so many reasons, and a lip stud put in my forward helix that I can’t get it out, it’s super infected so I have to go somewhere else to get it taken care of. One of my helix piercings was pierced crooked. To be honest, it’s not at all unsanitary, it’s just they mess up so bad with using cheap jewelry and the wrong type of jewelry. Also I feel like they should not have the 2 for 30 because they only have one piercer, no one else, and he does probably 50-100 piercings just on Tuesday. That’s too much stress on one person, and probably why he messes up sometimes, I would too if I was in his position. It’s severely understaffed and it shows.
I went in with my 16 year old daughter to get her nostril pierced. We got there right when they opened but they were already very busy. Despite that, the ladies at the front desk were awesome and got us our paperwork and on the list very quickly. We only waited about 15 minutes total and the staff member that did her piercing was very nice and professional. Would definitely go back.
Clean, friendly. Come early. They get busy fast!
The best place to get a tattoo. Love you guys
Ive learning to love my imperfections and Screaming Needle (Andrew) made that a possibility! I have a deviated septum and have been searching for the perfect place to get it done. It was an awesome and clean environment. I will definitely be going there for any piercings I get in the future!
Very professional and smooth process. Andrew was amazing and patient.
I was told when I went that they use surgical steel and titanium for all piercings. However, my industrial and nose are just fine so it must have been true for those, yet my tragus and eyebrow piercings had horrible reactions and must have been cheap metals! I woke up and my eye was almost completely swollen shut (had to go to the hospital and take 6 antibiotic pills a day!) and my tragus piercings blistered and turned into this weird hard crust that quickly spread down my ear and onto my neck. I had to take those three piercings completely out. I’m giving them 2/5 stars since two of them were okay while the other 3 were not.
My daughter got her nose pierced here. They were professional and clean.
Great artist and piercer! great experience today!
I went here to get my second ear piercing two days ago and the service was amazing. the lady that pierced my ears was Zarah and she was very nice and calming and talked me through the process. it was only $50 which isn’t bad for the good quality. i’m definitely going again to get my nose pierced
Honestly the cleanest, professional place. Will continue to have them be my piercing peeps! They are great! The guy I have had each time, is friendly and very good. Go see these guys!!
Septum and it was fast and clean i was more worried than anything they was so nice and very gentle will be back
My daughter and I went in together. She got her septum pierced, and I got a horizontal eyebrow piercing. Both great experiences. Andrew was amazing friendly, polite, professional, knowledgeable!
Got my septum pierced today by Andrew, it was really quick and didnt hurt too bad! 10/10 would reccomend :)
I went here for the first time a couple months ago. I got a second nostril piercing and the jewelry switched out on the first one. I then went back later to get my daith and conch pierced, and my industrial jewelry changed.Andrew was amazing both times. Sure, he doesn’t chat you up, but I am not a chatty person by nature and I found his mannerisms comforting. He was self-assured and I trusted him instantly.I’d recommend him 110%. He knows what he’s doing and doesn’t waste time. I’ll come back time and time again. :)I got my first tattoo from Cori and she is amazing!!! So light-handed and made my experience so awesome. I will definitely go to her whenever I need something done!! Love her!
I went there and got my snake bite lip piercings on July 6th with my boyfriend. It was quick and professional. Very clean. Definetly my favorite shop in Grand Rapids for tattoos and piercings
Clean, friendly, and very professional! First experience ever walking into a piercing or tattoo business. My daughter had her nose pierced, they were very thorough about paperwork and procedures.
Andrew pierced my daughters septum and he was gentle. Bring your birth certificate if u r 16
Came in with a group of three for a Walk-In and got in immediately, awesome service, great tattoos at very reasonable prices!
They do amazing job on my tattoo..Thank you toast!!
Writing a new review as the general manager reached out and happily fixed my tattoo Ryan messed up. The outcome this time around was MUCH better. 🙂 Thanks Chris
I went in for the 2 for 30 deal on Tuesday to get my helix and tragus pierced! It was a professional, sanitary, and safe environment, and the staff at the front desk were fast, informative, and precise! Andrew, the piercer, was ready immediately, and he got it all done within 5 minutes! Very fast, efficient, and talented! Of course, there were a lot of people there due to the great Tuesday deal, but they visibly went through customers at a timely manner! Thank you for the new piercings-- Ill be coming again soon!
The best studio. Its clean the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. Andrew is the best piercer.
Got my septum done by Andrew and it was great! He was efficient and knew exactly what he was doing so I felt comfortable. I was in and out in 10 minutes. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for piercings.
In the process of setting up an appointment. Got an estimate, filled out paper work, did the down payment. The guy at the counter didnt relay what i wanted in full to the tattoo artist so my tattoo price doubled because I double checked. Can I have my down payment back. No. All this happened in store not like I left and came back. Ink didnt even dry on the paper yet. But my money disappeared.
The shop was clean. The people were friendly but professional. Will definitely be back again!
Even though it was busy still got my 2 peircing in decent time. I got snake bites and they look sooooo good. I am extactic. They look beautiful 😍 💗!
Nice updates. However IF you know your having a great sale bringing in a receptionist would be wise! Im 100% sure you could ask for a volunteer for trade in a piercing. :)
The piercer here is the best i been going for a long time and would never switch! Hes gente and will be completely honest about anything hes great! Thank you
Had my nose pierced here for the umpteenth time. I always choose Screaming Needle because the shop is very clean, the staff is professional, and their piercing prices are very reasonable.
I love the work they do and I always been happy to go there and get me a tattoo 🤠😂😂
Love everything about this business. Great people. Only reason its 4 stars is because Ive had a couple crooked piercings. Besides that, all good things.
Needed some surgical grade earrings to replace a set I lost. The staff was helpful in removing my current jewelry and installing my new set, and the price was very reasonable. Had to wait a while, but not terrible for a walk-in.
Scott was amazing he did a really great job
So clean! They are amazing. So professional. I was so impressed. The whole experience was fast and it was probably the best piercing experience of my life. I will be coming back! Thanks, everyone. 😌🤗
Brought my 13 year old there for 3 ear Piercings, and I highly suggest. Quick easy very kind people.
Andrew pierced my second set of nostril piercings. He pierced at an awful slanted angle and even with a strict cleaning routine that has worked for all of my 16 other piercings, it would not heal and infected due to the tissue Andrew damaged from piercing at such a sharp angle. Would not recommend.
My best friend and I got matching tattoos here and they are perfect! So cute, I was so happy. Cori did our tattoos and she was seriously the best, made us feel super comfortable, and we had fun getting them. Will definitely come here again!
Very professional and quick and clean. Walked in on Tuesday night got the 2 for $30 special and enjoying them. Andrew is very understanding and talks you through everything love both piercings thank you
One wild week I still have one piercing though love the guy that did them he was so fast
Went Saturday night they were kind of busy but got me in (walk in) in a timely manner. Super professional and friendly staff. I got my nipples and nose pierced and Andrew made the whole experience comfortable for me. Definitely recommend and would go back. Thank you guys for being awesome!
Quick and friendly, clean. Would go for another piercing if I decided to get more.
They were fast, efficient and super nice to all of their customers. Andrew was my piercer, and he made me feel comfortable and confident. Highly recommend this place
Quick, professional, quality work. I walked in for a septum piercing and was in and out in like 10 mins. Andrew was great!
There’s not a single bad thing I can say about this place. First time getting a tattoo from here and I was impressed they took me in super fast on Halloween which tends to be super busy I’m sure and I was just a walk in. Cori did amazing beautiful work and all in a timely fashion she was easy to work with and helped customize my tattoo she was very kind and I connected well with her and the other staff i felt very at home, welcome and comfortable will recommend 10/10 and will request Cori again they were also very clean and followed all protocol for a safe environment love love LOVE THIS PLACE
Just took my daughter in for her septum and nose piercing for her birthday. Andrew was very professional and made it easy for her. Thanks for the good service!
Took my 11 month old today. First - they take children under 1. Second - Extremely clean and professional staff. The gentleman who pierced my daughters ear was very cool, patient and was very good to work with. Did a walk in and it was very fast. I would HIGHLY recommend this place. Again clean, friendly and fast. $50 for my daughters ears. Not to bad
When their for a piercing change. They were great! Quick and simple, would definitely recommend.
Toast did an excellent job on my tattoos
Got my nose redone they were nice and talked me through it
They always do good and there clean and professional
Got my nose done today and it was affordable, quick, and easy. I recommend going close to when they open. Sometimes they get really busy after 3 or so. Chris B did my piercing and was very welcoming and kind. The front desk workers were kind as well. Clean environment.
Danny was great and very friendly.
Got 2 piercings done, cheap, fast, and professional!
I got my nose and doubles (ears) pierced here. My piercer wasn’t super friendly maybe just a bad day but I was nervous so it didn’t really help that he didn’t talk much. He marked my ears but didn’t let me check to see if I liked it. They are a bit uneven but with certain earrings it’s not as bad. He also didn’t mark my nose he just went right into it with a needle. It is in a good spot but I would’ve liked to approve it first. The bad thing about my nose piercing is that it was red for a very long time and when the redness died down, a keloid appeared. I haven’t been able to get rid of it since it got here. I’ve tried many things such as the cleaner that they sell, sea salt water, etc... I’m not sure if it’s the jewelry or something but I’m not impressed with that.
A lil busy but they are great n very friendly
I have had several tattoos done here my last three have been done by Miss Cori. A very talented artist with a light touch. I highly recommend this is establishment and Miss Cori as your artist.
Toast was absolutely FABULOUS! Im so pleased with my new ink! He took my idea and totally made it work beautifully! Already planning my next one!
Everyone there is super nice are careful and caring. Always feel welcome and is a safe clean place. Great prices and work. Mike D has done all my work and will continue to be my artist until one of us quits!
I got my doubles (ears) pierced here for the first time, and I had a great experience. I loved the staff, and the environment. The reason why its a four instead of a five is because my piercings did come somewhat uneven, but I wanted to get the process over quick, so I didnt check before he pierced. It personally doesnt bother me, but for the future, I will definitely double check.
Appt is for Sat, but so far so good, staff was very helpful and very friendly.
They are very professional, and very nice. I will definitely be going back for more.
They was so in a rushed they didn’t even talk to me and tell me anything about it there is a bruise on my tongue and the dude was very rude and didn’t make me feel comfortable at all if I could give this 0 stars I would
I have no issue with the piercer or the piercing I got but the woman at the front desk who checked me in was very condescending. I was choosing what jewelry I wanted for my piercing and she said something about needing to check something in another room. I said she could attend to that while I decided. Then she responded, “Yeah, right. I’m not leaving you alone with them.”I understand if that might not be store policy to do that but I was just trying to be nice and I felt there are way more polite ways to say that she can’t leave me alone with the jewelry. I wonder if this was race-related (I’m Filipino) or if she was just tactless about it. Either way, it rubbed me the wrong way and I’m not coming back.
Scam. Was told they could do a tattoo for my friend. Had her pay, sit there for 2 hours and then say they can’t do it with no refunds.
I got my septum pierced here and had no complications, but recently got nipple piercings. I came in for a consultation because my left piercing is pierced partly through the areola. Andrew said it was just swelling and I was being nit-picky. Of course Im nit-picky about my piercings not being the same! Its very disappointing that Im going to have to take my piercing out and get it repierced instead of getting it correctly done the first time.
Fast, friendly. Answered all questions.
Took my daughter there for a nose piercing 2 times because she had nothing but problems from the first piercing. Same for the second time. Not a friendly atmosphere at all. I finally found a more reputable place that does exceptional work called Honest to Goodness!!! I will never go anywhere else for a piercing. Beware people if you are wanting a good piercing...this is so not the place for quality!!!!
Beautiful work they do there for tattoos I already have three tattoos from this place everything is perfect
Had a piercing fall out so I went in to have them put new jewelry in.... should have put it in myself... awful. Ive had this piercing for about 8 months and he put the new jewelry in in one fast motion...... I was in so much pain I felt like I was going to pass out... the hole was not closed.. This is why I have never come here for piercings.
I went here for my first tattoo and I do not regret it! The staff are down to earth, helpful, professional, and really make you feel welcomed. Stephanie (front desk) was amazing and I was so thankful for her wise, honest opinion. Scott did my tattoo and he was friendly, funny, super experienced in his work, and did an awesome job!*note that they probably only do walk ins so at times they can be busy and you just have to be patient and understanding
Beautiful work they do there with tattoo. I have now 3 tattoo from there love it there.
I got my nipples pierced in December. The guy who did it was nice and made me feel comfortable, but my left piercing was made too deep. One of the balls keeps entering the piercing tunnel. It has gotten to the point of being half way through. It hurt so I had to take it out.
My double helix lasted 9 days. I went to a different salon, where I was told that the jewelry that had been used on me wasn’t really appropriate for an initial helix piercing, and both of them had come out. The holes were already mostly closed.So I’m out $50 with nothing to show for it. I will go to the other salon when it’s time to try the piercing again.
Archie fixed/covered an old tattoo for me a while back and I had two piercings done by Andrew. I cant express how happy I am with both experiences! Archie is one hell of an artist and Andrew works quick and efficiently, which in my opinion is best when youre getting pierced. The receptionists are always a joy to talk to as well! You guys have a great thing going! Thank you so much!
Me and my mom had great service from Archie! He gave us the best mother daughter tattoos! Also the receptionist, Stephanie, is the SWEETEST!! We felt very welcomed! Thanks for everything, guys. Well be back, for sure!
Awesome experience from walking in the door and being treated great by Bubbles, the girl at the front. Got us worked in to get our ink and worked with us and our artist to make sure everything was what we wanted and it worked! Then we went back into a squeaky clean studio and sat while Toast did his magic. Great personalities and amazing artists. We highly recommend this place and will go back again for sure! Thank you!
Wife getting a nice tat from a very clean place.
I walked in today without an appointment after having an unpleasant experience at another place. First, Ashton at the front desk was amazing making sure that we got exactly what we wanted. She was so helpful and great to work with. Dom did my actual work and he did an amazing job. He also was professional but also super easy going and fun. The tattoo looks amazing. Terry worked on my brother and his tattoo also came out amazing. We will come back again and request both of them. From my previous experience of dating someone who owned a shop and knowing the rules and regulations....they are spot on with it all. If you are looking for a clean, fun, professional place that does amazing work look no further. It takes a lot to really impress me and I was super impressed.
These people are always so professional! Ive been through twice for different piercings and they take extreme caution dealing with each client! Thanks yall!
The staff was really nice. The guy who did (I dont remember his name) my piercings was informative and kind. Id definitely go back for more piercings.
They do excellent work for a very fair price!
