Kokopellis Tattoos And Piercings

Got all my piercings here by Britney and Janice! Last time there was really rude costumers in front of me. Stepping in and out of line to look at jewelry. Even though I was in line the entire time ( you think I don’t want to look too?) they got mad after Britney called me instead of them, so I let them go first. The staff were all really apologetic and even asked if I was sure to let them go first. Won’t find a better place!

have had so many INCREDIBLE experiences here. got all three of my nose piercings here; the staff were amazing, and made me feel welcome. highly recommend!❤️

My experiences at Kokopellis have been generally positive, but there are a few negatives that have finally pushed me to write this review.

I have come here for nearly all my piercings, and rarely ever had issues with them. Janice and Britney are wonderful and skilled; I’ve always felt comfortable and accommodated every time However, the quality of the jewelry offered is a hit or miss. I would not recommend the brand of nose studs they use here; they are very low quality and made both mine and my boyfriend’s nostrils dry, itchy, and flaky. The other jewelry I’ve gotten here has been decent, however. The piercer only seems to know piercings by their colloquial names and not their anatomical names (for example, a “Medusa” is, anatomically, a philtrum piercing, but you have to ask for a Medusa for them to know what you want.)

My main gripe is with the woman who works the register most days, whose name I don’t know, but she has a black bob cut and a Medusa piercing. Every time I have spoken to her she has been extremely dismissive, condescending, unfriendly, and often rude. I came into the shop to ask a question when the piercer was not there; as I walked inside, she side-eyed me up and down and sighed. I asked the question and she slowly nodded at me like I was bothering her by having the audacity to come inside and speak to her. She picked up the phone while I was in the shop and her end of the conversation went like this: “Kokopelli’s. No. You’re welcome.” In an irritated tone. She seemed like she didn’t want me there and was basically ushering me out by the time I was finished checking out. She knows nothing about piercings or jewelry and will only shake her head annoyedly if you ask her if she knows basic information (that she should know if she’s going to be fielding customer questions while the piercers are away). The best experiences I’ve ever had with her have been lukewarm to neutral, but most of the time she is incredibly impolite. I once came in with a friend and made a silly comment to him, which she openly and loudly mocked and laughed at to the other cashier. Extremely unprofessional. Extremely rude. Creates an uncomfortable and cold atmosphere.

Waited for almost 2 hours for the piercer to finish the piercing she was on and to go/comeback from lunch. (No problems w u sweetie, go get u some numnums), just for her to come back, take the person in front of us and have someone else tell us we had to come back tomorrow. Incredibly irritating.

We drove down from Houlton (120 miles) for my son to get his ears pierced for his 14th birthday. We called ahead to make an appointment and were told to "come stand on the yellow line and we'd be called in", and that "she's doing piercings until 5:00". Upon arrival at 4:35 we were then told she had stopped accepting clients. A wasted trip. Thanks.

In all of my years getting pierced at kokopellis, I have always had a great experience. Janice has always been amazing and professional. My best friend and I went yesterday to get our nose pierced and Brittany was also wonderful!! Would highly recommend Kokopellis!!

P.s. Friendly reminder to be nice to your piercer 😃

I went here about 2 years ago with my husband. We both got eyebrow piercings that both rejected. I have lots of other piercings from a different studio that haven't rejected, so I was a bit frustrated by that (it may not have been their fault, but I hadn't had that issue anywhere else).

I went back in today and got 2 more piercings. My experience this time was much better, and my piercer Brittany was very sweet and patient with me. They were very smoothy done, barely hurt, and she took the time to line up one of my piercings to be even with the other side. She was professional and answered all my questions for me. The only negative experience I had today was with the cashier who was very abrasive and felt cold/annoyed with everything. It was a bit off-putting, but my piercing experience definitely made up for that. I would definitely go back to Brittany again in the future. Thanks for piercing me today!

I went to Kokos yesterday as I was looking to get another piercing from them. I have been going here for years. The lady at the front counter with black hair I don’t know her name told us to come back in 20mins as the women working out back was at lunch. We waited the 20mins and went back started to look at jewelry to buy along with the piercing and were told if we didn’t wait outside we wouldn’t get called. No problem we waited in line the only people in line and waited for over 30mins while the women at the register went out back behind the curtain multiple times and as we were the only people at the store we looked to her to tell us how much longer she didn’t acknowledge us at all. After waiting 4o mins total we fondly left with no word from anyone. I would have happily waited that long had the lady at the front told us how long or any information or even looked at us while waiting outside. No great service and super disappointed I couldn’t get a piercing done. If they are by walk in it would be better if we could recieve some info or eta or a time to come back instead of being ignored.

I love going to Kokopelli's for a piercing. I have had good service.

I saw Brittney for a septum piercing. She was knowledgeable and efficient. I am very pleased with her work and would absolutely see her again/recommend her to a friend. Plus you can't beat these prices! This location is my favorite by far!
