I love MINT piercing so much! Knowing that I have high quality, timeless jewelry and access to such great customer care (jewelry repair!! aftercare and downsizing!! such kind staff!!) is so worth the price tag. If there was ever a place where the “you get what you pay for” phrase rang truest, it’s here. The jewelry is SO beautiful and lasts, and the prices reflect that.I’ve had appointments with both Janessa and Cody, and they were so easy to talk to and explained what they were doing and gave recommendations. I’ve gotten piercings at a mall and at a tattoo shop, but coming here was by far the best experience.Keep in mind that appointments and timing is very important. Show up early and be courteous to the fact that they are by appointment only!

I have been to Mint a few times now for piercings and they are very kind and attentive to your needs. They give you the appropriate follow up care and even have you come back after healing to ensure everything is looking good! I took a long time to pick out my jewelry and they were very patient!

Janessa is awesome! I showed her an inspiration picture. She was able to give me great ideas, and the piercings turned out great! I did a conch and 2 helix piercings.

I've been here multiple times not always getting pierced but with a friend. Leo is ALWAYS amazing. His passion and knowledge for his artwork is amazing. It really is artwork how he helps you choose what pieces will work well with what you already have.He helped me choose the most amazing piece last time I was there and I get complements on it ALL THE TIME. He also puts you at ease about the piercing and even the selection of the jewelry. It's a solid 3 hour drive from where I live and its worth every mile. Thanks Mint, and especially thank you Leo!!Service: Ear piercing

I have now been to MINT twice, first for a double helix piercing for myself and then with my 7-year-old daughter for her first ear piercings, and have had fantastic experiences both times. The shop is beautifully decorated and it's clear they practice extremely good safety measures. Janessa worked with both of us and was friendly, calm and calming, professional, and patient. I want to especially commend her for being so fantastic with my daughter. She thoroughly explained everything, spoke directly to her the entire time, and used the perfect amount of calmness and excitement. Such great experiences!Services: Ear piercing

Mint is pretty much the only place I got for piercings or jewelry because I trust their skills completely. The jewelry is excellent quality and I love that I don’t have to worry about it just falling out easily. I often see Janessa in Ankeny but have also gone to Tyler at West Glen, regardless of who you see they make you feel comfortable, valid, and like an awesome new person! :)Services: Ear piercing

The way I see it, MINT is the only reputable option for piercing in our area. I’ve been getting pierced for 15+ years and my mint piercings have had a higher success rate for healing than those I had from other shops. I think this is because mint prioritizes the highest quality jewelry, continuing ed, and industry standard technique. You know it’s good when your piercer declines to do certain piercings for safety/longevity reasons. I’ve recommended mint to my friends and family and will continue to do so.

I had my nose pierced by Janessa and she was AMAZING! She made me feel very comfortable and addressed all of my questions before proceeding. This was the best experience and I truly enjoy going in and purchasing new jewelry from them, as they have the highest quality and the best people around! Thank you Janessa!Service: Nose piercing

Janessa did an awesome job making my fiancé feel at ease with his industrial piercing appointment and everything looks gorgeous; between the jewelry and the placement, and even his confidence boost from having a good experience. I cannot recommend Mint enough :)

!!UPDATE!! Leo, Tyler, and Cody. I must say your patience with my stuck up nose was impeccable!! Not only did you make my many attempts memorable, I am so happy of the way your team handled everything!!If I would have to do it again(7th time was the charm though) I would!! The process is so super easy and the piercing itself didn't even hurt!I would 100% recommend this place to any one! They're professionalism is off the charts amazing!Thank you so much for making my experience turn out to be a good one!! Can't wait to schedule my next appointment!!I had what I thought was an experienced piercer, but that was not the case. Come to find out they were to have an instructor with them so what happened to me didn't happen.I walked out of there feeling sick to my stomach my nose hurting for a whole week with some minor stings here and there. I don't understand because they got it through perfectly fine the first try, and then idk what happened.The fact that he had to use a scalpel to try and get the needle through the other side was the most pain I have ever been in. I've wanted my septum done for years but now I'm frightened to get my septum done because of the experience I had here.The service was absolutely incredible but the piercing not so much.Service: Nose piercing

Awesome!!! I was tired of my nose studs falling out and wanted a hoop. They had several to chose from and I also had a helix stud replaced, too. Very informative and really nice to me, even though I had questions! Highly recommend!Service: Nose piercing

I had the best experience at Mint! Janessa is super knowledgeable & helpful, fun to chat with, professional, and clearly knows what she’s doing! The shop is very clean and they have a great selection of pieces to choose from. I could not be more impressed with my experience and I am beyond pleased with my piercings! I will definitely be back to see Janessa in the near future!!

This place is amazing, this is exactly what a professional piercing studio should be, very sterile, can't say enough good things, my niece was so happy with her new piercings as well as the advice she was given! Thank you!!!
