Everyone in the shop was super nice and helpful! They were really knowledgeable about the jewelry which was great since I can be sensitive to a lot of piercings. Keylan was my piercer and he walked me through every step and gave detailed aftercare instructions. Would definitely recommend!

Priscilla was so cool and helpful today! Helped me change out my old earrings and pick out some new ones that went with my style/ear. And I really liked talking to them :) Amazing experience :)

Just went and got my bellybutton done here:) whole experience from start to finish was lovey. Keylan did my piercing & he was AWESOME. He explained everything to me very thoroughly, and also made the piercing very quick and nearly painless. Ro and Priscilla who also worked there were so sweet and helpful. Will definitely be back for my next piercing~Thanks guys!

Got my nipple done with Carly and couldn’t have had a better experience! This was my 10th piercing and by far my favorite studio I’ve been to. Carly made me feel super comfortable and thoroughly explained aftercare/healing. Definitely felt safe trusting them with such a sensitive piercing :)

Iris is such a special, queer place thank you for making it so safe & cozy & joyful!!! ? I’ve been going here for years, there’s nobody I trust more than Carly when it comes to putting metal into my body! and the rest of the staff at Iris genuinely has the best, most welcoming vibes.

I had been going to Iris for years and upon my recommendation had brought friends and family. Last spring (around March or April) My Pupil Hall earring broke and I brought it in for a repair. I loved this earring and free repairs are supposed to be a selling point for this brand. After waiting for months and 3 rounds of screw ups (the wrong earring, wrong earring size, and a defective earring), in August (yes, August) I asked to speak with the owner. I was confused because they were just supposed to be fixing my earring, not replacing it. The owner refused to call or email me directly and instead sent the studio staff to deal with these mistakes. They would not give out the owners contact info. The studio staff and piercers are largely great but it's strange that the owner of a store would refuse to speak with a client about something like this. It's especially strange because the owner has a connection (maybe married) to the owner of Pupil Hall. One would think that this would expedite and make the process simple but it was the opposite. It's unfortunate. This used to be my go-to but there are many piercing places in the city and I suggest you go there. If something goes wrong here you're on your own and they don't stand by their promises. And don't be fooled by Pupil Hall. The jewelry is beautiful but poorly made. So after 4 months, I never got my earring, I got a refund.

Everyone there was so kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. They corrected mistakes and explained what went wrong with previous piercings I got done at other places. I’ve been to a ton of shops around nyc, and this place is the best!

Had an ear styling with Carly this weekend and it was an incredible and pain free experience! I’d definitely recommend going here instead of the more jewlery focused stores with piercings. You definitely get what you pay for in terms of experience and professionalism!! She took the time to explain every step of the process and made sure the piercings I wanted would work with my ear anatomy. They also have a lot of jewlery to choose from depending on your budget. 10/10 recommend :)

A true gem. A little hole in the wall shop in Brooklyn. I went not knowing what I wanted and was guided by the welcoming staff. My piercer, Carly was so detailed and explained everything thoroughly. I can’t wait to go back and get more piercings.

Got my septum pierced here by Carly. I had a great experience. I love how everyone here is super sweet but also respectful, no matter your pronouns or background. I wish all businesses had this same energy!As for the piercing itself, the build up was more intense than the actual moment of piercing haha. Putting the jewelry in also was not bad. I love it, thank you so much!!Service: Nose piercing

I absolutely LOVE this place!!! My 6yo daughter had an earring stud backing completely stuck in her earlobe. When we walked in we were greeted immediately. My daughter was super nervous and they explained the process to her and made her feel at ease. They were also very helpful in sharing their experiences with piercings. Super kind with kids and great at being patient. We also purchased earrings for her and they helped my daughter choose her earrings which made her SUPER excited. They are so great with children that my 8yo was motivated to pursue getting earrings again. It's been a struggle to get earrings because we thought the hole was closed. During the stud removal, before every step, they explained what was going to happen, they took their time. Unfortunately, the ear stud backing was not removed because my daughter couldn't handle the pain, otherwise, it would have been out. They suggested we go to the doctor just to get the earlobe numb and she wouldn't feel pain. They never made her feel bad about stopping the process. We will all be back to put in the new earring and also for my older daughter. I'm even thinking of getting a second earlobe piercing myself!!! I really recommend this place as you will have a great experience.

I initially went here a little over a month ago to get a forward helix piercing. The piercing studio is small but it is very clean & they have a good jewelry selection for a variety of piercings. My piercer was Carly who was very professional and made the process pretty seamless. The piercing itself was painless & I was able to choose exactly the jewelry I wanted. Pricing wise, yes they are on the more expensive side (I paid around $160 but thats including tip) however, I personally think this place is worth it. I will definitely come back to Carly for any future piercings!
