I got pierced yesterday and I had a lovely experience! Dustin was so comforting, and he allowed me to chat his ear off about how nervous I was. He carried conversation and explained everything he was doing which made the entire process a lot less nerve racking. One of the quickest piercings I’ve gotten! He was so sweet and genuine, I don’t think I’ll be getting pierced anywhere else from now on. Highly recommend setting up an appointment!!
Best place I’ve ever got a piercing. Dustin was great! The shop was very clean and professional.
My nose piercing was beautiful! They had so many gorgeous jewelry to choose from and it’s well priced! The piercer seems more educated on piercing than anyone else I’ve been to in this town and he was so nice! The lady at the front desk was also so nice and helpful! The shop is the cleanest one I’ve been in and it smelled so good and clean!
We went to get more piercings and they did so well.Definitely going back.
I highly recommend this place for any piercing you need!!!!!
This was one of the best experiences in piercing in a long while. The lady at the front desk is extremely helpful and knowledgeable and if she does not know, there is always someone that she can ask right away.The piercer (whose name I unfortunately forgot) made everything easy and quick and painless. He may look intimidating but he has a heart of gold from what Ive seen. Thank yall again! I love my new septum piercing and my gf loves her tragi pierced and the new plugs we bought her.
This was my first time ever getting my nose pierced.😬 So I had very many doubts. This place went above and beyond my expectations.😱👏🏾👏🏾The staff was polite, I even enjoyed the customers that were also making purchases there. It didn’t take long for them to get me all set up and because everything was so clean-cut 😄 it made the little pitch of pain feel like nothing. I ended up getting a double nose piercing.😉😝 I was super happy with the outcome and the healing process is going great! I am definitely a satisfied customer 😎 💯
Dustin is so amazing and his staff is so nice and welcoming!! If you just listen to Dustin, he helps make your piercing less painful. He took on my group of girls there were 6 of us and 5 of us got piercings! He gets you in and out so fast and he even jokes around with you, I’m glad I didn’t fart in his face “it’s a joke” 🤪 thank you for our experience, we all will be traveling to Hot Springs from now on for piercings by Dustin ‼️
I got a rook and forward helix today. Everyone in the shop was awesome. Answered all of my questions and helped me pick the best placement and jewelry that compliment each other. Dustin is so amazing. Talked me through every step and made sure I was comfortable. Everything is super clean and the atmosphere in the shop is so welcoming and relaxing. 10/10 will recommend to everyone I know. Thanks yall so much. I will be back for jewelry 😀
My husband and I decided to get our septums pierced for our tenth year Anniversary.I researched where to go and reviews. So glad I did! Dustins shop was immaculate! Tiffany helped us with “legalities” and choosing jewelry. So professional!Dustins technique was so gentle yet perfectly placed. I had almost no pain at all! He explained every step of the way and aftercare!The shop has some of the best selection and most beautiful jewelry I’ve ever seen!Dustin also has a great bit of oddities collected as well! The music playing and the lighting all helped ease my nerves but it was a great experience. I recommend this shop to anyone even younger children wanting ears pierced!What a fun group of individuals!!Thanks y’all!
Nice place..guys was nice..was booked over a month ahead
Did a good job on my daughters piercing she is very happy
Very clean the guy was professional and clean he had nose pierced in less than 3 seconds, I also bought their after care cleanser and it’s looking so good!
Dustin did a wonderful job and answered all of my questions. Very professional. Highly recommend.
I came here on my 16th birthday and got my septum done and it was overall such a good experience. he was so professional and clean which made me feel a lot better and was super gentle when doing the piercing. great pricing. 10/10 and will most definitely be coming back for my future piercings.
Professional. Clean & friendly. Only not much of a selection. Small shop though.All & all happy 😊
Great experience very little wait time with appointment even was able to squeeze in my sister who come along with no appointment. However when I called to get a quote on the nose piercing they did not include any rings at all in the pricing, or mention that jewelry was separate. Although in the quote for my friends tongue piercing the jewelry was included. This led to me spending almost three times as much as I planned.
Awesome place .. Awesome people
Nice folks, beautiful studio, one million stars
Prices are fair, they have low end jewelry and high end jewelry options. Dustin, the piercer, is nice and so was the front desk lady. Prices on the actual piercings were fair.
I made an appointment at Anchor on Friday September 4 to have my septum pierced. I had expressed to Dustin that if possible, I wanted it to be as high as possible. Dustin explained to me anatomy is going to determine my location which made sense to me. Dustin put on claps and pierced what I assumed was my septum. I heard a “pop” as the needle exited the right side of my nose and it didnt feel right. 4 hours after the piercing was done I could not eat and my front two teeth are aching and throbbing with the same pain going through my nose. I feel as if Dustin pierced my cartilage and sent them a message about my concerns, they asked me to come in at 4 today and I did. I again voiced my concerns to Dustin and he spoke to me in a condescending way telling me a new piercing is going to hurt. Obviously, I have had plenty to know that but to also know when something isnt right. Dustin told me he could remove the piercing and refund me but I cant handle it being touched, I mean I cant even eat..He continued to tell me it was fine and pierced correctly, but if anything it may have been pierced CLOSE to the cartilage. Dustin also shamed me for getting the opinion from another shop about this piercing and its location. He also shamed me for researching before getting my piercing telling me thats no better than self diagnosing a medical concern, asked me if i was a licensed piercer and told me he was the professional here.I have attached photos on their Facebook of the piercing. Including showing that the piercing isnt straight and specifically on the right side where it is excruciating the piercing goes slightly backwards towards the inside of my nose and in this aspect at minimum it was not done properly. I initially did not take Dustin up on his offer to refund me because that isnt the solution I was looking for but after being treated and talked to the way I was, I expect a full refund and an apology..I recorded my interaction with Dustin when I met at the shop today..I was terrified to go in alone to voice my concerns and knew how he would treat me, he treated the glove delivery guy the same way, in front of me, when they didnt have his medium black gloves.Anchor and Dustin have great reviews and thats why i chose this shop, but not every piercing is going to be perfect, you can and will mess up and its okay to do so, but fix it when you do.Update:theyve blocked me from their page and deleted my post. How professional.
Most professional piercing Ive had done. A bit pricey but totally worth it. Will definitely be back when Im ready for another.
Pricey! But very snazzy shop, and the guys that helped us (Dustin & Devin) were very nice! My brother got his tongue pierced and it was done very carefully.
I just got my industrial piercing done day, both the guy there was really nice and respectful, i got really bad anxiety and the guy that did my piercing he kept me relax and calm and there really clean there to i couldnt see dust or anything and i really like the fact of the sterilize test strip, neither guy was rude and its a place i would go back to get piercing and tattoo done. i highly recommend this place to my husband and my friends... if i could i give them 10 stars i would give it to them best shop i been to get piercing and tattoo done at.
Just got a couple piercings and well I love them!
Dustin and Tiffany are amazing. Both are super professional. Dustin was quick and smooth with every piercing which made the whole process much less stressful. Highly recommend!
Super nice and fast. Inside was very clean and bright. Staff was friendly. Would definitely recommend.
It was really nice. Professional. Clean.
I’m glade I made the drive all the way there from Little Rock. Dustin did my piercing and the whole experience was wonderful. Place is very clean and professional. A lot of great high quality jewelry to choose from, I almost couldn’t decide. Definitely will be coming here for future piercings or for buying new jewelry.👍🏻
Tiffany was great. Awesome personality and smiling face. Also Dustin was efficient and super helpful. 10 out of 10 would go back again
They were super nice and help explain everything we needed, will definitely go back if I need anything else.
Beautiful selection of jewelry, great piercers
I loved it,very clean, friendly atmosphere, I will be back!!
Made my daughters 16th birthday ear piercing a great, safe experience! Super friendly and comfortable!
I had my tongue pierced at Anchor back in September and I was very impressed by the quality of the shop and the customer service that they had showed me when I had came in for scheduled appointment and the Guy who did my piercing and I am very Satisfied with the service I had got from the business and the piercer who took care of me! I have to give 5 Thumbs up and I will pass on the word of mouth and more business ! !
Fantastic service. Excellent technique. They did a great job with all our piercings. Very professional and definitely a sanitary place to go get work done. 10/10 will be back.
Dustin was amazing! This was my first experience getting my ears done, as an adult. He did my daith and 2 flats all in one session. He made me feel comfortable, calm, and I only experienced very little discomfort during the peicing process. I have a very low pain tolerance, I HATE needles, and I have a phobia of people touching my ears. He was just very professional and I cant say enough good things about my experience at Anchor. Its a very clean and nice shop. The jewelry selection was so very pretty.....expensive....but worth the money in my opinion. I will only go to Anchor if I decide to have more ear piercings. 💖💖💖
My daughter got her ears pierced and we are extremely happy with how everything went. The shop is clean and inviting. The owner Dustin is very nice and professional. He pierced her ears and they look beautiful. My daughter is ecstatic to finally have her ears pierced. I have recommended Anchor to my friends and family because we had such a great experience.
Wonderful service. However the jewelry is exceptionally expensive. I called ahead to check prices, and the lady who answered was extremely helpful, knowable, and assisted with making an appointment. I made it clear we were coming for ear piercing on two minors, and the prices given to me were per eating, not per pair which was a bit misleading. However, I chalked this up to my misunderstanding. It is understandable that they would price this way as many of the piercing they offer so not require two studs.The entire visit ended up costing us almost twice what we were expecting when we made the appointment (close to $300 to pierce two girls ear lobes including the studs, which were some of the cheapest they offered). Before they pierced the girls ears they CLEARLY explained the prices, so I do not think the misunderstanding was intentional. We decided to go ahead and purchase the studs and get their ears pierced. The lady apologized for the misunderstanding and I apologized for not understanding as well. Everyone was GREAT! Dustin was kind and knowledgeable! We didnt feel pressured to buy more expensive jewelry than the ones our girls picked or the healing solution. Dustin simply recommended it and moved on. NO HIGH PRESSURE!!!We will definitely go back, now that we understand more, maybe just one child at a time! Jewelry is extremely high quality and likely worth the price... I definitely recommend this place if you are able to afford it, and highly recommend understanding that the price is not for a pair of earrings, but for each stud.
Class act all the way. Professional atmosphere. Stunning studio. Incredible jewelry selection!!!
Dustin and his team are awesome!I’ve gotten four piercings and four tattoos from them as have my daughter and her friends!
I got my tongue pierced Saturday did not hurt at all will definitely go back couldnt be more happy. Very welcoming and clean.
Absolutely love the place and very professional! Super cool people too!
This is a wonderfully professional shop. Very clean and hygienic as well as ascetically pleasing to the eye. The jewelry he carries is the absolute best and has a style for any personality. It is a lovely addition to the area. The staff and owner are top notch! I trust Dustin with any and all of my piercing needs. I even got my mother (retired nurse of 30+ years) in the shop. She loves how clean Dustins procedures are and would let him work on any of her children and grandchildren. If you want a piercing or are curious at all about them, contact this shop!
After getting my ears pierced at Redbeards back in July I constantly had trouble with them with them not healing correctly. Today I decided to go to Anchor and Dustin and his associate were very kind and knowledgeable about piercings. They helped me find a pair of earrings that fit my earlobes and helped me by inserting the new earrings in perfectly. They were very nice and will definitely be back to purchase more jewelry from them!
Extremely clean & sanitary! Friendly staff!
Amazing! Over 15 years I’ve had 10 piercings done by Dustin & every experience has been better than the last. Today my appointment at Anchor Hot Springs was NEXT LEVEL. The space is immaculate, well appointed & comfortable. Dustin has such a grounding energy, you can’t help but feel relaxed & safe. The next time you’re in Hot Springs be sure to check it out ~ you’ll love their professionalism, high-end products & exceptional service.
Dustin is the best! He is very knowledgeable and professional. He has done all my piercings. Nostril, tongue, both daiths, and my labret. I wouldnt go anywhere else!
These people are awesome. Theyll talk you through any questions or concerns you have. Best place Ive seen too get a body piercing of any kind.
Higher end jewelry
Cool group of people I have meet in a long time .
Not at all what we expected from a piercing place. Beautiful studio, very professional staff, super clean, high quality jewelry!
The BEST piercing experience I’ve had to date. I’ve had my nipples pierced before but the bars were not sized properly and constantly got snagged. I had them redone by Dustin and I haven’t had any pain or any issues whatsoever. I’ll be going back here in a couple of weeks! Never want to get my piercing anywhere else again.
The best piercing artist I’ve came across! Definitely recommend.
I DEFINITELY recommend this place! The environment is very comfortable and clean. All of the staff was very welcoming and friendly.
Sorry 5 people has had the same problem taking my business else where. Then let me reply to you instead of blocking please anyone that reads this go somewhere else
Beautiful studio! Thank you !
I have suffered migraines for most several years, July 26 Dustin gave me a Daith piercing I have been 17 days symptom free med free with only slight headaches that didnt last. Today I recieved a Shen men point piercing to help with insomnia I will keep you posted on the results.
