I've gotten eight different piercings at about five different places over the years. Comes A Time was hands-down the best of them all, I've never had such a great experience. Tobias was very personable and patient with showing me all my jewelry options, even bringing me one he found, that hadn't been on display, that he thought I might like. I thought I'd been to nice piercing places before but Comes A Time blew the rest of them away; I've gone to anyone more thorough with cleaning and placement than Tobias. Also, this was the first time I had ever been given such extensive aftercare instructions without being pushed to buy their own products, going so far as to give me the information on my jewelry and its gauge (it was the only place to give me this without me having to ask outright). Bonus points for dealing with my incredibly obnoxious friend, you'll see me here for all of my piercing needs.

I got my first piercing in ten years here and Tobias was very patient and helpful. He gave me an accurate expectation as to how getting a septum piercing would feel and was very kind about letting me stick around until I felt well enough to drive, even though it was after they should have closed. Couldn't be happier with the work.

Had the opportunity to get some work done today. Three of the most common tattoos but in a certain order

Some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I got my naval pierced here and after a few weeks the screw was stripping the ball so it would just turn loosely and never tighten. The top finally fell off and I went back and bought another one. The same thing happened to the second one, and before I could bring it back to the store, the ball fell off again (mind you these are $40 each, which is not cheap). I went back and they said their products aren't faulty and couldn't do anything for me since I didn't have the top. I then was stupid enough to buy a forward helix stud from them and the piercing got infected almost immediately. I then took it out and went back today because I can't get it back in. The store is supposed to be open until 8pm. I showed up at 6:15 and one light was on in the back. I called their number and no one answered. Then a man came out and I asked if they were open. He said no. I said, "but it's not 8pm yet" and he replied, "well we're not open." Then he shut the door without any further explanation.

My friend and I went to get conch piercings last night and we had the wonderful piercer George. Cannot say enough good things about this guy. We were being total wusses and he was so thorough in explaining the process and making us feel at ease. We also met JP the other piercer and he was hilarious! Making us laugh when we needed it! From start to finish the whole process was a breeze and we are obsessedddd with the piercings. The piercing itself was $30 and we opted to pay for a little more expensive jewelry so we ended up paying $90. Some may say that’s a little steep but if you’re inserting a foreign object into your body, making sure it’s of good quality seems like a no brainer. Hands down recommend this shop and especially George and JP to anyone!

Loved it! I got my cartilage piercing done there and it was amazing. They were very professional and clean and sterile. They were very nice and they walk you through every step of the way and don't do things without telling you. Just 100% :) Highly recommend it.

Definitely Pleased. After speaking with a relative (who has experience with piercings and tattoos) I decided to take my 10 year old daughter to Comes a Time Tattoo to get her ears pierced (instead of a mall establishment like Claire's). The Tech who did the piercings was Georgie K. and it just so happens, he is the one guy that I worked with/dealt with for the entire experience. He is fantastic. I called the shop two months prior to the actual appointment seeking information... did they pierce children? and beginning at what age? etc. He was a trove of useful information and could not have been more pleasant. I called again a week prior to make the actual appointment and again Georgie K. took my call. More details were provided, what documents to bring, they aren't into being rigid about following through once clients arrive at the studio and if a child simply isn't ready, on the day of, that's ok. He was super nice with my daughter and had the perfect tone. Not too saccharin, not too "cool." Just a nice, regular guy with special skills. He asked her what music she might want to listen to in the piercing room and didn't mock her 10 year-old music tastes. (Meghan Trainor). Prior to going in for the piercing I got a lot of info about of the jewelry they had available, it was explained to me that jewelry costs at a tattoo parlor have multiple pieces and therefore the costs are multiplied, not just by two (for two ears) but by two again, because each earring has two sections to it (a post and a gem). I also knew there was a piercing charge on top of that. The only thing I didn't expect was the added tip, but that's likely because I'd not been in a tattoo parlor before and simply hadn't thought of that part. But once I realized this I was happy to add the tip. It has only been one day since the piercing, but her ear lobes look great, no redness, no swelling. Daughter said she had almost no pain (minus the three seconds when the actual needle went in her ear lobe). They sent us on our way with detailed info for aftercare and we've sprayed it twice with saline wash since then. I'd definitely suggest this method and this location to my parent friends, (especially Georgie K). It is a great alternative to a place like Claire's or anywhere they use a piercing gun. It is significantly more expensive, but it is so much safer — not just more sanitary, but the actual method of puncturing the skin is cleaner and sharper. A good technician (like Georgie K.) will also have a much better hand (precision) and understanding as to the actual placement of the piercing.

I had no issues with this place piercing wise. My nose piercing was great. I was very nervous going in as this was my first piercing as an adult (ears done as a kid). They made me feel comfortable and it was done quickly and didn't hurt at all. The only complaint I have is when the guy was giving me the pricing up front he made it seem like it was one thing and when he rang me up at the end it was almost three times that amount. It was VERY misleading.
