    Great place! Both super friendly guys and Jay the piercer piercing very quick and pain free. When I got my conch it was barely a 2/10 for pain. They also were very nice and helpful when I started to get dizzy afterwards. 100/10 would go check out this amazing place!!

    I brought my 16 year old daughter here for a nose piercing. I knew that I wanted to take her to a professional place (not the mall) to get it done right. Church of Steel was a fantastic experience and I couldn’t recommend it more. Jay explained the process patiently and took us to a sterile patient room. He was extremely skilled and marked the best place for the piercing based on her facial structure. This is important for the piercing to heal. He expertly used the piercing equipment in a sterile fashion that was more like a medical procedure. It was so quick and painless we couldn’t believe it! Very pleased with my experience and I will definitely come back for my next piercing! My younger daughter can’t wait!

    Art and Jay are so welcoming and kind. I called them to ask about the process of getting my baby girls ears pierced (she is 3 months old) and they let me know what to bring and that I could do a walk in. I showed up with my husband, son and daughter and from the start I felt at ease with their demeanor and hospitality. They fully explained everything to us and the quality of material they use made me feel so much more comfortable about getting her ears pierced. Getting her shots done was way more crying than this. They did such a good job and I highly recommend them. If your hesitant like I was they make you feel at ease and I would not hesitate to go see Art and Jay. I never felt so calm about a procedure for my child after talking to them! Thank you so much.

    I had such an amazing experience with Jay at Church of Steel. From the moment I walked in, I noticed how clean and well-maintained the shop was…it honestly stood out compared to other piercing studios I’ve been to. What I really appreciated was how private and intimate the environment felt. They don’t allow anyone else in the room while you’re getting pierced, which makes a huge difference, especially since piercings can be such a personal experience.

    Jay is incredibly passionate about what he does, and it shows. He’s very knowledgeable and takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. Talking to him feels so natural, like you’ve known him forever, he’s just that personable. On top of that, his customer service is truly next level.

    I’m especially grateful that he was able to take me in on such a busy Saturday. Whether it’s your first piercing, something for your child, or you’re adding to your collection, I can’t recommend this place enough. I genuinely hope everyone gets the chance to experience Church of Steel and meet Jay! You won’t be disappointed. I love my new piercing 🤍

    I had the absolute BEST experience at Church of Steel! I brought my 3-month-old baby in to get her ears pierced, and I was honestly a little nervous — but Art and Jay made the entire experience so calm, professional, and reassuring.
    From the moment we walked in, they were incredibly kind, patient, and informative. They took the time to explain everything to me, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt completely comfortable before we started.
    Jay pierced my baby’s ears and did such an amazing job. He was gentle, confident, and so precise — her earrings are perfectly placed, and the whole process was quick and smooth. You can tell they truly care about what they do and about the people who walk through their doors.
    I’m so grateful we chose Church of Steel. If you’re considering getting your little one’s ears pierced (or any piercing!), I cannot recommend them enough. Professional, clean, kind, and talented — such a wonderful experience all around! 💛
