    The customer service and care with piercings is great but the price is outrageous! $211 just for simple 2 ear lobe piercings. They charge separately for each earring stud at $40 a piece and they do not come with backs, you have to pay $15 a piece just for the backs!

    Staff is very condescending and fake nice. I didn’t appreciate the way staff treated me. They were rude and treated me like I was an idiot. I’ve been to much less expensive places with much better experiences. The piercing prices aren’t that expensive but their jewelry is. Would not return here. The environment appears clean. Street parking so leave time to find parking.

    I don't think i'm gonna be going here for my peircings anymore. My vertical labret was ruined and closed up because of them, then i got my top medusa peirced by a more experienced person that works there, and it wasn't put in correctly and i had to close it correctly myself otherwise it definitely wouldn've fallen out too. Thats pretty annoying and unprofessional if you ask me. Aso a big waste of MY money...

    Thank you so much to the kind staff for helping me pick new jewelry even though I was late for my piercing appointment. I really appreciate them working with me and keeping a chill vibe. I really really appreciate the adorable receptionist with the amazing sun belt and eggy beret 💗💗💗 can’t wait to return and get my actual piercing done!!!! Again, thank you for your patience and kindness. I am so super dysfunctional with time management so I REALLY appreciate their efforts. See ya in a few weeks!

    I wanted to like this place so bad because i can honestly say everyone in there was kind and respectful as well as having a huge variety of jewelry to choose from.,A little pricey but great selection. However my reason for only 2 stars is because upon talking to the apprentice that was doing my piercing , she stated that she had 8 years of experience (behind the counter) at that shop and not doing actual piercings but on the phone prior to booking i was told the apprentice just had 8 years experience and that she has been at the shop for quite sometime (so i chalked it up to a simple misunderstanding). Considering she seemed confident in her ability to do the piercing despite the experience I happily continued with my appointment. Well jump to being pierced , my piercer immediately knew something was wrong and stated she believes she pierced my nose at a hard angle .upon me looking it was pretty much vertical , (remind you at this point i am still very polite and understanding despite having a needle go through my face just to find out we have to take it out wait 2 weeks and then re-pierce it) yet even as upset and frustrating as that was to hear i remained calm and kind ensuring my piercer that had no ill will and that people make mistakes for her not to feel bad after removing the piercing and stopping the bleeding i was kinda rushed out the door without the ability to speak with someone higher up but i had already been Rescheduled so i left it alone. But then after calling and asking who my piercer would be the second time i was informed it was the same lady so i asked if i could get a more experienced piercer because i was uncomfortable to have an issue again simply because that would have been my 5th time pierced in the same spot (only once by metro) . I was then told i could change my piercer but i would have to pay an additional fee on too of the 120$ i was gonna already be charged and i politely asked if they could at minimum wave the extra fee and i pay the 120$ quoted since i have to let them poke a second hole in my face. I was told no i would unfortunately just have to take that L. As kind and respectful as i was about the entire situation just to be blown off is what i couldn't shake hence my review, i hope everyone else has a better experience.

    I had two nose piercings done by Julia, she’s done many of my other piercings over the years as well and she’s always been extremely informative and professional. The people working the counter are always very kind and professional as well. I can’t recommend this place enough!!

    I am so happy with my experience. The person at the front counter was so awesome and she helped me get the best jelery for me. Then Dawn was awesome with doing my piercings. She talked me though what she was doing and offered to take a break when I mentioned that I was feeling lightheaded. She was super professional and I will come back for any of my piercing needs.

    My twelve year old got her first piercings here and it was great! They walked her through how to care for it and it was very sanitary. Nice environment, she loved the abundance of plants in the waiting room.

  • 5/5 Patsy F. 7 months ago on Google
    I had a great experience from initially walking in through the whole process of having piercings added. Ramona is professional and trustworthy in every sense. She validated and alleviated any questions or concerns. I will definitely go back for my next set of piercings.

  • 5/5 candace s. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience! Staff are very kind and explain everything. Got my 12 year Olds' ears pierced there and the piercer walked her through every step and made her feel very comfortable, Definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 amy l. 11 months ago on Google
    My 10 year old had her ears pierced by Dawn. Dawn was very serious about the procedure and aftercare process . Space was clean and Dawn was efficient. My daughter has had an optimal experience and her healing is better than expected ( and of course i had my own ears done at Claire's, eons ago, when I didn't know any better so it seemed "normal" to have gross crusty ears). Turns out going to a professional who is using appropriate, sterile equipment makes a huge difference! Would highly recommend metro/dawn and tell everyone to avoid places like claires. Included photos; immediately after piercing and 3 weeks later

    Got my other nostril pierced (finally). The apprentice, Sarah, who did it was beyond sweet. They were also funny and made sure to explain every step so the client knew what was going down. They were attentive and wanted to make sure the piercing was just right.

  • 5/5 Britney C. 10 months ago on Google
    All of the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They really take the time to make sure you get the best experience. Clean and safe piercings with everything explained beforehand and excellent aftercare.

  • 5/5 Taylor E. 1 year ago on Google
    Everyone there was so incredibly sweet. They talked me through everything, from the selection of the jewelry, to the piercing, and the aftercare. Scheduling the appointment was super easy and took only minutes. And Julia was great because she made me feel very comfortable with her education and talking me through the process. A lot of negative reviews are about price, but I found it very reasonable. I think it’s obvious on their website that you need to pick your jewelry, so the jewels are not included in the cost.

  • 5/5 Hannah B. 10 months ago on Google
    I got my nose pierced by the apprentice there and I just have to say, they were absolutely amazing and I’m so happy with my piercing. She took her time and really measured out the piercing to make sure it matched with the one I already had which I was so thankful for. I felt so comfortable and In such a safe space with the whole team overall. I bought a band off my body pin too and right after I left it fell off somewhere and I was so upset 😭😭 I’ll have to go back and get another one. Overall I’d 100% recommend this place <3

  • 5/5 d. a. t. 9 months ago on Google
    Absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend taking advantage of the apprentice piercing discount. Sarah did both of my nipples & it was a very positive experience & professional job. The atmosphere & service in the shop in general is top notch. A+

    I have been coming to Metro for nearly 10 years, I always get my jewelry here, and got my ears stretched a few years ago. Dawn is one of my favourite people there, you will be in good hands should you decide to get pierced.

  • 5/5 MsCharlottelouise 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely recommend this shop! All of the employees were very welcoming and kind. Sarah pierced my helix for me, and was very informative and professional the entire time (made sure to check I was okay too!). Be prepared to spend a decent amount on the jewelry itself, but new piercings is not a good time to go cheap anyway.

    Took my 13 year old niece in with her mom to get her ears pierced and it was an amazing experience for both of them. Her mom was so happy with the cleanliness of the place and how professional it was. Niece had a great experience for her first time and her mom was also was super impressed with how well my niece’s ears have healed up. She was grateful we went to a professional

  • 5/5 Kaitlyn G. 1 year ago on Google
    I'd rate more than five stars if i could. Everyone here was awesome. Dawn did a great job on my vertical labret, she was very professional and gave valuable advice. Will definitely he coming here again for future piercings!!

  • 5/5 scott D. 1 year ago on Google
    Went in for my first piercing ever. I'm an almost old guy, haha. Both employees at the front counter were very pleasant and friendly, sorry I don't remember your names :). My piercer Dawn was awesome and explained the process in detail. The whole process was over in a matter of minutes. Hardly felt a thing.

  • 5/5 Lacie M. 1 year ago on Google
    I stopped by to upgrade my existing piercings today and the staff were wonderful. They were very patient and thoughtfully answered all of my questions. They let me take my time to look around and they never made me feel rushed. There was a wonderful selection to choose from and I will definitely going back for any future purchases.

  • 5/5 Kylie C. 1 year ago on Google
    I went in to get a labret and a nostril piercing and had an amazing experience. The staff were so welcoming and knowledgeable and my piercer was great! I love the piercings and can't wait to visit them again.

  • 5/5 Aster U. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a wonderful experience with my piercer Dawn. They kept everything clean and put in a lot of effort to make sure I was comfortable. They explained my aftercare thoroughly. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Dr. Trevor M. 2 years ago on Google
    Super professional, great environment, super clean place, Dawn made me feel super calm, and she was super smooth - I didn't even realize she had done it - and my septum piercing looks great. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Carissa C. 1 year ago on Google
    Appointment with Dawn. I have a deviated septum and been told that it wasn't possible to pierce without it being crooked. Dawn explained the anatomy and how she would pierce it. She was thorough in the process and talked me through my pre-peircing jitters. I highly recommend going to her for your piercing needs.

  • 5/5 Sarah 2 years ago on Google
    So impressed! This place is super clean, smells amazing, has tons of plants, has stunning jewelry and incredible people work here. Everyone was so nice and helpful and friendly! I will recommend this place to everyone I know and will return!

  • 4/5 Mikey A. 1 year ago on Google
    Julia the piercer was amazing. Easy, quick and safe. Hazel had great customer service and attentive. The only reason a 4 star 🌟 cause of the price to get the nose pierced.

  • 5/5 Deja J. 1 year ago on Google
    I got my naval pierced by dawn a week ago! Super friendly and professional place. My friend was actually getting hers done first and I asked dawn for some advice since I’ve had my naval done before and it ended terrible, turns out I just had my “stomach pierced”. Dawn was super informative and assured me she could give me the correct piercing and she was correct! I’m so happy my new piercing hides my ugly scar from the previous attempt. This place is very sterile and has a very nice high quality jewelry selection. It might be higher priced than some but you’re truly paying for amazing service, knowledgeable staff, and a sterile and clean environment. I’m not from Washington nor will I be staying but if I was this would be my go to for any piercings or piercing relating questions! Thank you guys!
