Almost Famous Body Piercing

DO NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE BUT ALMOST FAMOUS. I am terrified of needles and piercings and just got my bellybutton pierced there yesterday evening after work. Arrived about 5:30pm and filled out paperwork. The gal helping me was super kind and helpful. Had about a 45 min wait time so they let my friend and I go grab food and leave the leftovers right outside the store on their table. I was freaking out and had a ton of anxiety about the whole thing and they patiently let me wait about 10 minutes to get my courage up and answered my 1000 questions patiently and kindly and were very supportive, not in a pushy business sales way but in a friend supportive way because they knew I wanted to do this despite my fears. After I got into the room I accidentally touched the piercing spot they’d already cleaned and they patiently recleaned and remarked it. After getting on the table that was very clean and a welcoming atmosphere, I ended up backing out and going up front to pay the refusal fee but felt awful for not going through with it. The manager (?) who was there the whole time with me told me she’d give me another shot if I went back right then and they’d set it up a 3rd time for me. Not once did I ever feel judged or pressured, just supported. I went back and swore a bunch but got through it. 100000/100000 recommend them.

Very helpful staff and courteous! My daughter got her septum pierced. And so far so good 👍

I went in yesterday and got my tongue and vertical labret done. My tongue turned out perfectly but my vertical labret is crooked. Loved the place and would definitely go back just wish the piercing was straight!

I never want to write a bad review but people need to be aware. This was my third time giving Almost Famous a chance. I just will simply never go back. I got my nose pierced for the second time, and two helix. My nose was so uneven to the first piercing, and my bottom helix was so far apart from the first two helix's. After a week of getting them done, they told me they needed to take them out. They told me they will repierce for me, but will not refund me. I just do not recommend and I will not be going back. After three different experiences, and a total of 4 piercings gone wrong...please do your research before getting pierced. Because now I'm out $230 from this last experience with Almost Famous.

I got my daughters ears done by them, they healed great, got my tongue pierced by the Manager ariyana(?) and it’s also great. But one piercer I think her name is beth(?) needs to work on her bedside manner. Her attitude only changed when she was in front of the manager of the store. The piercing she did on me was one of the most traumatic (it was just a nose piercing). I already have one side done, & when I got my left done by Beth, it was too painful. Weeks passed and my nose never got better, it was always super tender to the touch & painful. Eventually I got a blister like bump on my piercing and had to take it out. Wasted my money this time around & I don’t think I will be back, or atleast not to see that piercer again.

Brittany is awesome. Helped do my septum and when the ball fell off put it back on for free.

I took a chance and got half off for my bridge, vertical labret, anti-eyebrow, and nostril piercings to have the technician in training do them. she did an amazing job with every piercing. the rest of the piercers that were watching were also amazing. everyone was so nice and friendly. and when i’m in the area i will definitely be coming back.

Had Airyana pierce my eyebrow, I had been wanting it and my daughter wanted her ears pierced at Claires so we went in so she could watch. They were upfront about pricing and had a layout of the costs on paper before I even went back. All the tools were sterile, I was informed of ever step she was doing. She was very kind and talkative, the whole process was quick and easy. I have no redness or swelling the next day, it's barely even sore. They even gave me a longer piece of jewelry to accommodate for any swelling that may occur (even though I'm not experiencing any). Over all the service was clean, professional, and painless. It's worth the price, you definitely gained a forever customer.

I went to the Fargo location with my daughter to do cartilage piercing. I witnessed one employee being mocked by a potential customer for refusing services without the required documents. The employee remained cool and professional through this derision. The service we received was kind, professional and clean. I appreciated their up front explanation of pricing, metals and standards for cleanliness. Our piercings were done with sterilized equipment and fantastic staff. I was very happy with the whole experience.

I was leery of going here because of bad things I had heard from friends and I should have listened. The shop set up is not very good first of all. It seems very cramped and unwelcoming. They also use VERY low quality jewelry and charge you a ridiculous amount. My piercing ended up getting super irritated and bumpy because of poor quality jewelry. Went to a professional piercer at a tattoo shop and they helped me get it back on track and recommended never going there again. She was also surprised to hear that Almost Famous did not walk me through what they were doing as they were doing the piercing and was surprised at how long of an earring they put in. Needless to say, I later got another piercing at the tattoo shop for less money and better quality
