Reviews of Identity Body Piercing
Myranda Kerkela
Sara was really cool. I got a surface bar piercing here and she was super knowledgeable and explained the reasoning behind the placement and how to give it the best chance at healing. The whole staff was really welcoming and super fun to be around while I was waiting for my piercing tools to be sterilized. Everything was incredible, I was super nervous on the drive there but by the time the needle was ready, the staff had done such a good job at reassuring me and explaining how it would be performed, I wasn't nervous at all. I even had a bit of an audience to showcase the placement, which was also really fun. Seriously, the staff here is incredible and I'm going to recommend them to anyone who asks, especially for an advanced placement like mine! 💖
Becky Marshall
Amazing service, beautiful studio, clean and professional, highly recommend. I especially appreciated the bonus fall decorations and general attention to detail.
They helped me with a piercing that fell out, they matched a missing piece, let me browse beautiful replacements, and then (a couple hours later) replaced the body piercing when I couldn’t manage it by myself. Across the board, I received a quality service, especially for an “emergent issue” type of walk-in.
Thank you Z and Noelle.
Remember to tip your helpers!

Identity was amazing! Very clean, well lit, and well staffed. We were guided through every step of the process before we even started, the staff checking us in/helping us pick out jewelry was very attentive and open.
My friend and I got pierced by Sarah and Noel and they were both phenomenal. They were communicative and kind and very professional. I would recommend this shop to anyone! Both for the quality of work and the overall experience.
lauren michelle
I had such a lovely time!! Both the staff and the clients there for piercings were so friendly. I really love how the space is organized—it’s so open so you can go off and be alone or chat with other customers there. I was a little nervous but the warm vibes really eased my worries 🥰
They had me select my ring—TONS of options and they checked in to make sure I was happy with what I’d selected. They have such a variety of beautiful pieces and I’m coming back with my bf over the weekend to purchase some matching nose rings, ha!
They went over the price before I paid for anything which I loved.
Sarah did my nose piercing—I got a septum and she was so careful to position it perfectly. They made sure I loved it! I am over the moon about the entire process—she is an expert and does her work so lovingly!! She went over cleaning processes for the new piercing in detail as well.
Everyone is so sweet and has the best style—I will 100% be back.
Liz Purull
My experience with Identity Piercing was absolutely amazing. The staff was incredibly kind, professional, personable and reassuring that everything would go smoothly and safely. They explained every step of the process including their level of sanitization. Will did the piercing on my nose and did a wonderful job not only with the piercing, but making sure I felt comfortable and safe every step of the way. I was so satisfied with the results and would highly recommend Will and the rest of the team for any and all piercings!
Adriana Rose
10/10!!! This place was recommended by a friend and I’m so glad I went! Sarah was my piercer for my septum and she was great. She took her time to explain the steps of what she was doing and made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. Very clean, professional, and very friendly. Also, the business as a whole is very covid-conscious, which I appreciate! Will be back for any piercings in the future!

I saw Sara today for a septum piercing and I'm so glad I went! She was so friendly and did a great job. She cares a lot about aesthetics (as do I) and wouldn't do anything on other people she wouldn't want done to her. I was in great hands :)
The two people who assisted me at the front with checking in and picking jewelry were also very friendly and helpful. (I wish I had gotten their names because I'd mention them here)
I spent months scouting a good piercing shop and I'm so glad I went here and will be coming back!
Bianca Gonzalez
Highly recommend! Went in for a VCH piercing with my cousin today, We showed up early to our appointment and they helped us immediately. Sara our piercer did an amazing job giving options that fit our anatomy. She made the process easy and made me feel very comfortable. Definitely worth the money and I can’t wait to go back and shop for more jewelry. The rest of the staff was amazing.
Theodore Brumme
This will always be my go-to for piercings. The studio is gorgeous and has such a wide variety of jewelry options. The piercers are extremely knowledgeable and have never disappointed when doing piercings for me or anyone I know who has gone there. Very sterile and informative as well. Highly recommend this studio for any of your piercing needs!
Kitty Kitty
This place is so legit! I stopped in while I was traveling due to losing a ball for my labret. The staff was super friendly and patient with me, and I left satisfied.
After a couple of hours I had a small issue with the jewelry and I sent an email hoping for the best, as I was leaving town early the next morning.
Molly got in touch right away and stopped at nothing to fix my issue.
I don’t need another piercing, but if I’m in Chicago again, I’ll find something to pierce just to visit again.
Highly recommend!
Riley Parsons
I’ve consistently had amazing experiences at identity! everyone here is so kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. i’ve been to other piercing shops in chicago that made me feel uncomfortable/unwelcome and also felt overpriced. identity always feels like a good value for a quality experience. i’ve had three piercings done here and 3 backing changes as well and they also helped me care for an inflamed piercing. highly recommend!
Kevin Higby
Samantha was great! The piercings here are done by hand, which surprised me, but makes sense since it gives greater control of the placement and angle.
Alexandra Simon-Flight
Very high quality studio, little disappointed with the customer service. A few counter staff members (not all!) always seem to have an attitude when I try to talk to them or ask questions. Came in a couple times to get a piercing, turned away multiple times because no one there offered a lip piercing or no one would help me downsize my piercings because they didn't offer this service which under normal circumstances I'd understand, but they've helped me here before with thess and over the phone assured me I could get the downsize or piercing that day. Completely understand that not all piercers are comfortable working with cheek piercings, just a bit of frustration when over the phone a counter staff told me they would and a drive into downtown chicago is not the easiest thing in the world ! Big inconvenience. Believe it was the manager? But they just told me there was nothing they could do. Seems like an issue with the staff that answer phones and work at the front.
Sara hands down an amazing piercer ! Super duper welcoming, very comforting, and amazing piercer and person all around. Made the experience super easy and great.
Noel is also fantastic! Made me feel safe and comfortable the entire time. Had an amazing energy and did wonderful piercings for me !
Danny2 Turnt
Love this place. Front desk staff were nice, I can’t remember their names(sorry lol). Noel was the one who did my piercing and she was amazing. She was very knowledgeable, took her time and answered all of my questions. Thank you so much
Pierre de Villiers
I went here for a large gauge piercing because I want to start stretching my ears. Santi did an amazing job I love my piercings they look so good. The shop was super clean, the staff were warm and welcoming, they had a bunch of jewelry to choose from. I am so thrilled with this experience and will definitely be going back.
Amanda Berger
My family only gets pierced by Santi, so we'll follow him wherever he goes! Identity is a beautiful shop with so much eye catching jewelry. However, the piercing rooms are a bit much to endure. The plain white walls and RIDICULOUSLY bright overhead light are really disorienting.
Alexa Kane
I have been coming here for years and have sent all my friends here as well. Staff is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. Be prepared to pay for quality jewelry and service, well worth the price. I love this place.
Lauren Yannuzzi
Excellent, professional, kind people with a beautifully clean shop and an amazing variety of jewelry to choose from. Just visited the shop from out of town. Went with a friend to get her nose pierced. We walked away extremely happy.
Sara Cawley
Had a fantastic experience here! Got a conch and helix with Joanna and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. She’s calm, quick, and everything in the shop is super clean. The front of house and piercing curators are also awesome and help you get beautiful jewelry while staying in your budget!
Sammich Sewing
My go-to piercing shop in the city! Santi is a phenomenal piercer, and notably had done an incredible job on my large gauge piercings. He has done both my 6g flat and my 10g septum swiftly, accurately, and clearly has a lot of knowledge about what he is doing.
Patrick O'Malley
Seriously the nicest staff at any establishment I have ever been to. I’ve gone in 3 times and always leave in a good mood. Prices are also very fair
Orion Saiph
I went in for a bridge piercing a little over a week ago(it's healing great so far). Everyone there blew my expectations out of the water. A wonderfully wide range of jewelry, kind and helpful staff, and a highly talented piercer (thanks again, Sara!). I can't wait to go back and get more piercings done here in the future.
Krystle Davis Rapchak
Sarah pierced my second and third holes in my earlobes last night. She made perfect placements and walked me through what she was doing during the entire process, which put me at ease. Sarah was awesome and the jewelry selection is outstanding.
Rick Urschel
Took my eight-year-old daughter here to get her ears pierced. The staff from beginning to end was phenomenal. Selection of jewelry was good for a first-time piercing. Nicole talked her through every single step, made sure she was comfortable and understood everything she was doing, very patient with answering questions, and it really put my kiddo (and me) at ease. Everything was extremely sanitary and clean, too.
Jordan K
The attendants were fairly cold and uninviting. I waited about a half hour after my scheduled appointment time before I saw the piercer. The piercer himself was actually very warm, friendly, which made the experience a lot more enjoyable, but the attendant at the register seemed to hastily get me out. Overall I did not feel very welcome here, but left with a piercing I am happy with.
Danielle Jordan
I was avoiding getting my nose ring from a tattoo/piercing place cause of pricing, but I got a perfectly sized backing and super cute nose stud for under $40. I'm sure it will last a while too. Really appreciate it!! Super helpful staff. Even though the place was packed, I was helped in an efficient, informative, and welcoming manner. I was given just enough info to clearly understand how they sell and do the jewelry there and when I mentioned I was in a budget I was showed the most affordable options. The wonderful human at the desk helped pick the right length backing and told me to check the length against my nose before opening the package in case I needed to bring it back. Didn't feel pressured to buy anything additional either. I was asked if I wanted a tool that would help me put my nose piercing in which would be additional, but it was clear that it was just to be helpful since I was going to put the ring in myself. If I wanted another piercing I would definitely come back here!
Cindy Jay
Cute new cozy shop in roscoe village. Got myself a beautiful buddha jewelry piece for my nostril ✨️ Will definitely be back!
Kavya Deepak
Great experience with ear piercing. Jesus, who helped us was really professional and patiently explained the process.
Alondra Contreras
Nice people, they answer any questions you have. You get privacy when you get pierced.
Also my favorite thing about them was when they made sure I was comfortable, I was ok with them and made sure everything was sterilized
It's a bit pricey but worth it
Still requires a mask and if you want a nose piercing you need to be vaccinated
Jenna Holzhauser
I had an amazing experience at Identity from start to finish! The ladies up front were so welcoming and friendly right from the get go. They explained the process and helped with my curation for my left ear. Could not have gone smoother. Madeline was my piercing artist and she was WONDERFUL! She made me feel comfortable and relaxed the entire session. She explained what she was doing and how it would feel. She guided me every step of the way. I’ve already made my check up appointment for May and another curation for my right ear is in order. Cannot wait to come back. Don’t hesitate to make an appointment- it’s fabulous!
sarah purcell
I would give more than five stars if I could. The service was stunning and the workers were so awesome. Everyone was very kind and informative. They will let you know if your anatomy is at risk for a piercing, which can be disappointing when you really want a piercing, but at least you know they won't let you get hurt. I had my rook and helix done here and they're both healing very well. The jewelry is about normal pricing for good quality jewelry. The place is super clean. AND the business is female owned! Very glad I went here and would recommend to anyone.
Korawri Ba
I came in for nipple piercings and I can't say enough great things about this shop.
Absolutely fantastic customer service, Diana was my piercer, she was kind, gentle and her attentiveness was on point - she listened to me ramble about nothing and calmed my nerves just by being so confident. She also had an actual conversation with me about aftercare instead of just listing things I should do, above and beyond, I'm so grateful for that.
This place came highly recommended by multiple people and they truly lived up to their reputation!
I will definitely be recommending this place in the future and this will be my go to spot if I decide to get anything else.
Beautiful job, clean & quick - love you guys!
Diana Burke
Last week I made a jewelry appointment online to help figure out what size my lobes had shrunk to during Covid quarantine. The shop had just opened so I was able to roam around and did immediately feel confident I was in a clean shop.
Michael and Sara were a great help, Michael's keen eye and calipers diagnosed two different sizes and recommended this zebra wood pair in 1 1/8" for a very reasonable $34. Michael then gave me great advice how to carefully size back up to a happier and healthier ear. (These big ears are 15 years old, advice has been updated a bit from the olden days)
The jewelry selection might be the best in Chicago, varied from smaller bits to quite large. Also the jewelry suppliers they use are some of the best in the business. Every metal is represented here, silicone, woods, and stone. Lots of sparkly and hanging styles too. Check out their Instagram to see the selection at hand.
I would not hesitate to send anyone in here for retail or for a piercing appointment. In fact I did the next day.
Star Fajardo
I haven't had a piercing in over 10 years and thanks to the lovely people at Identity I'm now back on track to be pierced! Very friendly and amazing prices! Shout out to Sara for taking care of me and doing such an amazing job! I'll be coming back again very soon!
Jose Moreno
Everyone was so helpful from the moment I walked in, and I appreciated the fact that there was a majority female-presenting piercers while I was there since it made me feel more comfortable. Noel did an amazing job helping me with getting my first piercing, which happened to be a 5mm gauge ones, and overall would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area, or do like I did and take the green line to get there.
Brie M
I had the best experience at Identity just now. First, the person on the floor was playing my favorite album. She was so nice, friendly, and helpful. She had really good suggestions and seemed genuinely happy to be picking out jewelry with me. Next, the piercer changing my jewelry was so sweet and made sure I was informed on how the jewelry would look in my ear before putting it in. Next, their in-house jeweler actually added a jump ring onto my jewelry to make it look better in my ear. Customer service, atmosphere, jewelry, and pricing was 1000/10. Definitely going back for all my ear jewelry in the future. Go here and make sure you tip!
Emily Sadowski
The staff is the absolute best! Noel switched my piercing and she was the sweetest ever.
Ashley Burbick
Great experience. Jewelry is a bit on the expensive side but quality is good! Will be back for more piercings.
Grecia Jimenez
I got a piercing out of town and my piercer recommended Identity for my follow up appointment. I was a walk-in appointment. Front desk staff were amazing and answered all my questions. My piercer was Sara and I’ve seen her twice to check in on my piercing and to downsize. She was very nice, professional and had great advice on aftercare and jewelry choices. I plan to get other piercings and will definitely come to Identity for them!
Erica Kalinowski
My experience at Identity Body Piercing was fantastic. I got to the appointment early but was still promptly helped. I had both nipples pierced simultaneously by Sara and Noel (I may have spelled those wrong). The facility was clean and Sara did a fantastic job of walking me through the process and aftercare. They anodized my jewelry to the perfect color and I'm in love with the results. One of my nipples was more difficult than the other and Noel was so wonderful with it. She kept talking me through it and working even when I moved from the pain. Truthfully the pain was over fast and so far healing is going great. I can't wait to go back for my next piercing. My boyfriend brought me to the appointment and he even wants to go back for his first piercing! Would recommend them to any and everyone. The jewelry selection is unique and amazing too!
Tianna S
So I went here for a nose piercing, I was really nervous to be honest since it was my first facial piercing at an actual piercing shop & I just genuinely didn’t know what to expect. The ladies working here were really nice and professional and helped me pick out some really nice jewelry for the piercing. I got very detailed after-care instructions on how to properly care for my piercing and so far everything is healing very well. The jewelry can be a little expensive but for someone like me with sensitive skin— I feel it is totally worth it & expected for jewelry made with safe quality materials. I will definitely be coming back here for more piercings and will also be buying more jewelry from here! 💯 Recommend
Ally Frank
i had a fantastic experience at Identity. i went on my 18th birthday to get my navel pierced and from the moment i walked in was personally attended to, had all of my questions and concerns addressed, and felt safe. they were very very clean and professional as well. only complaint would’ve been that i had to wait about an hour past my appt time to actually get pierced but the environment was so great that honestly i didn’t mind waiting. 100% will return (if i can decide what to get next!!), and was worth the hour and a half drive each way
Joanna Sissons
Wide selection of jewelry here! I got my navel pierced and the staff was very helpful and nice. I think this a good place to go if getting pierced in a tattoo shop is a bit intimidating for you. I don't mind a cool grungy tattoo shop but I know that's not everyone's cup of tea.
Deyanira Villagomez
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE all the gals that work here. I first ordered some things online for pick up and WOW. The packaging was super cute and so well thought out! the owner, Molly, is the sweetest, raddest gal I've ever met. She's super hands on and so helpful! Ever since then I'm a regular client of hers. All the piercers and the people working the front of the house are super polite and professional! I've had Elaine and Steven help curate my ears! Jojo, Sara, and Madeline have all pierced me and I love each of them! The process was fast, easy, and oh so comfortable! Highly recommend!
Terrie F
My review is for on-line purchases only....and my experience was flawless. Easy maneuverability and check-out. Items were shipped very quickly, in the cutest little gift box, and a thank you note. Now for the jewelry-WOW! Exactly as described and gorgeous. I'll be a repeat customer.
Brooke Gibson
I got a daith piercing this past week at Identity and had a wonderful experience! I drove about 3 hours to get there. They ordered the Maria Tash earring that I wanted. Sarah, my piercer, did an awesome job and was very knowledgeable! Everyone that helped my check in for my appointment was very friendly. I would definitely recommend Identity!
Rell Rell
I was a walk-in and got seen very fast, Very welcoming and polite! Sarah was perfect! Very knowledgeable and gentle with the piercing. 10/10 for this place!
Erin Siegferth
So many people recommended Identity to me for my first non-earlobe piercing and now I understand why. Everyone there was so supportive and patient and let me take as long as I needed to pick jewelry etc. Noel did my rook piercing and was INCREDIBLY patient and kind—I was super nervous (and it showed) so I appreciated that so much. I feel super cool with my new jewelry and will definitely be back for more!
Diana Grossman Tantra Butterfly
Eight years ago I received a super tiny piercing on my left nostril; in fact it was so tiny and delicate my body rejected the jewelry five years later and the skin on my nose was always raw and getting infected.
I'd been missing it because my right nostril healed successfully and never caused me any issues so last week on Friday I mentioned my desires to a wicker park tattoo artist on North Avenue and he strongly urged me to walk in immediately to Identity piercing to try my luck again 😀
I'm so happy I followed his advice because this particular piercing studio is the most elegant with so many gorgeous pieces of jewelry to choose from! Yes they have pure gold here so save your pennies and splurge because the jewelry here is so beautiful and everything is created for people with sensitive skin like me.
My piercer was Samantha Jones and she has a wonderful sense of humor and compassion ❤ for the human body so I highly recommend her if you're the type of person who gets a bit nervous before a piercing. She chose the perfect sized guage for my nostril and also the proper placement so the jewelry will sit perfectly and be noticeable.
The pain was extremely tolerable and honestly she did such a good job my nose healed extremely fast even though it's still a bit swollen. The healing process after a nose piercing usually takes two full months in general before the swelling of your nose goes down and she recommended I return in 6 to 8 weeks to switch to a smaller flat end backing for the jewelry I chose.
The women here really are organized and know what they're doing and everything here is extremely cleanly and artistic.
You will love coming here not only for the wonderful services; but for the artistic and feminine vibes !
Very pleased I listened to that tattoo artist 🎨 and will definitely get more piercings here in the future when I'm ready.
Net
I will always let people know about my favorite piercing shop in the city! The staff are so kind and helpful. I love all the safety rules they put into place for coivd. The jewelry here is all well made and thoughtful. You will pay a bit more but spending money on something that's going on your body is way worth it to me.
Alexia LeMoine
I have not visited the shop because I live very far away BUT I did order a few things from their online shop. They are also APP certified which is why I bought from here. I have very sensitive ears and my cartilage piercings were so angry from wearing cheap jewelry so I decided to fork over the money for nice, quality pieces. The earrings arrived safely and are so beautiful, I’m so happy to have them in my ears. The shipping was fast and I got the sweetest thank you note, a coupon code for my next order, and even some candy with my order. I’ll definitely be buying more earrings from this shop in the future!
Ryan Santos
I recently got my nostril pierced, and I had a pleasant experienced ever since I walked in through that door, until I walked out. Everyone is so nice, and extremely helpful. Thank you so much everyone!
Molly Murray
2 piercings in January - staff so friendly & helpful with some teenagers that got piercings with me also. Lots of choices for hardware. Highly recommend for piercings PLEASE DON'T TAKE YOUR KIDS TO CLAIRE'S!!!!
grace novacek
everyone who works here is super friendly + helpful + goes out of their way to make u feel welcome :) noelle helped me get some jewelry for my extremely old and migrated navel piercing and it fits perfectly, exactly what i wanted + super affordable as well. noelle put the jewelry in for me and was really gentle and thoughtful in doing so ~ definitely coming back to them for my future piercing needs :~) the owner molly is also amazing and kind and cool!! can’t recommend this place enough +++
Kathryn Wittbold
I love this shop so much. Since moving to Chicago 4 years ago, I’ve gotten 5 ear piercings there and have bought about 8 earrings. The selection is unparalleled; the owner Molly has amazing taste and I get tons of compliments on my jewelry from there & am always so happy with my purchases. There is a great range of jewels both style and price wise. Every piercing I’ve gotten there has healed perfectly. I had a few not so great healing experiences from a less-quality shop in college I used to visit, which taught me that skilled piercers are not always a guarantee, but the staff here is wonderful. Clean, professional, friendly - I leave every visit extremely satisfied. Glad to see that others have rated this shop highly as well!
Henry D
I cannot say enough great things about Identity. Super clean space, and the team there is just amazing. Sarah has done two of my ear piercings, and I plan on returning to her for a few more. Molly is extremely friendly, and makes you feel like a best friend right off the bat. They never rush you when you picking out jewelry, and they’re always sure to offer professional opinions when asked. I love it here, can’t wait to go back. Thank you Sarah and Molly for your professionalism and kindness!
Brook Rosini
I first went to Identity because my husband had an emergency where he needed to get his earrings out for a CT scan. He told me about his experience and how kind the staff was, so when I thought about additional ear piercings for me, I decided to book there. I’ve been to Identity three times now for three different sets of ear piercings, and I’ve even brought along a couple friends who also ended up getting piercings and loving them. I’ve had a great experience every time. The shop is clean and comfy, the staff is patient and knowledgeable, and the piercers are super professional and nice, talking you through the whole process. I’ll definitely keep going back for downgrades, jewelry, and any other piercings.
Carmen Ortega
Best place in Chicago to buy body jewelry. I often struggle with finding nice, pretty jewelry that is good quality and wont irtitate my skin. Identity body piercing has it all plus more. The employees are very knowledgeable and professional. We were helped out by Steven and he helped us in a very kind and patient manner. All our jewelry was heat sealed for us and they can change your jewelry for you there, very helpful for those hard to get ear piercings. Will definitely be coming here again.
Jessica Socha
Friendly, helpful, nice! Visited multiple times and everyone who works there is always so eager to help and so kind! I walk out happy every time.
Teagen Trejo
Really cool shop! Joanna helped me out and got a new barbell through my tongue after two years of thinking it closed up!
BigFinnable
Unfortunately couldn't get a piercing done the day I scheduled as they ran out of surface bar jewelry, but the staff is very friendly, professional, and accommodating! They also have a beautiful selection to view while you're waiting.
Nathan Gilbert
I was out of town in Chicago and had an ear blowout mid travel, they helped me find what size earrings I should use for no charge and the plugs were only $16. Staff was friendly, shop had awesome selection too!
Mary Donnelly
Identity was a lifesaver back in May when I needed to pick up a nose stud after mine fell out. They were incredibly nice and accommodating, and despite quarantine they were able to answer all of my questions via email. The packaging the stud came in was really sweet and personalized. I have very sensitive skin and wanted to make sure the piercing was made with quality metal; I've had it in for two months now and haven't had a single problem. I would recommend them to anyone.
Kristie L.
Always a fantastic experience at Identity. I've gotten several piercings here and the staff is always super friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be going back for more jewelry and probably even more piercings.
Bennie Pabst
My piercer was very professional and kind, however the staff at front of the shop has made me feel unwelcome and uncomfortable, on the multiple occasions I’ve been to this shop. The staff is rude and also referred to me by my legal name even when my appointment was made with my preferred name. I also made an appointment I ended up waiting over an hour to get pierced.
Harty Hart
It’s a very nice shop, and they were fast and efficient. They also have a beautiful selection of jewelry and very unique pieces. I will say though that I agree with the other reviews stating that they felt rush to get in and out of the place as fast as possible. When I was getting my nose pierced it felt like they were being timed and needed me to have my nose pierced, the aftercare “kind of” explained to me, then have me pay and out the door in 10 minutes. I understand that at the time I was there, the shop was quite busy and they had other appointments. But taking time to make sure the customer is comfortable, and that everything is being explained to us thoroughly is also important - especially the after care. It is a piercing and a modification being made to our bodies after all.
Jessica Elwell
Absolutely the best piercing experience I have EVER had!!!! The staff was so helpful and knowledgeable and caring. They helped pick jewelry, talked through the entire process and everything was 100% clean and safe and amazing. I would recommend to anyone wanting any piercing in Chicago! Or even from outside of Chicago...it was that memorable.
Carlynn Young
I got pierced by Sara and she was great! I loved talking to her, she talked me through the entire process and made everything super comfortable, quick, and painless! Will definitely come back
Sarah Kovacevic
Got my helix done- Sarah did such a fabulous job! Super professional place, clean, safe, great options for first post. So happy!!!!
A. Brooke Wine
I was at a coffee shop and just randomly decided I wanted to get a piercing. I wanted to get my cartilage re-Pierced and after doing a ton of research on shops in the area I landed on Identity. Their jewelry selection is insane and everything is so beautiful (once I’m done being a broke college student I have my eye on a few different pieces I want to get). Molly was absolutely fantastic and told me prices of everything I asked about. She was super knowledgeable and friendly. Madison pierced me and she was fantastic! It was super easy and fast. Everything is extremely clean and well priced. I’ll be definitely be back for my further piercings and to add to my jewelry collection!
Novaira P
This place was great! They have a great collection of jewelry that are fairly reasonable. The only reason I’d take off a star is because I made an appointment for 3 weeks out and then had to wait 45 minutes to be seen. I had no idea they take walk ins as well!!
Valeria Terrazas
Blown away at how great everyone in the studio was. From the moment I walked in, to the moment I left. Everyone is great and if you’re looking for a place that’s clean, fast, and sweet as can be, I highly recommend Identity.
Kellan Kryak
My boyfriend got his industrial done back in December, and he still loves it! It looks fantastic. They really take their time to ask you proper questions, give you real advice on aftercare, and find what’s best for you. Also, the jewelry is added into the price of the piercing, making it so much easier and giving us piece of mind in choosing the best piece.
Piercings should always feel safe and clean. Here, we had no doubts. Best use of our money for piercings, and we can’t wait to go back for more! ✨
Katherine Jimoh
I’m such a huge fan of this place-I’ve made lots of purchases and have gotten pierced twice. The owner of this shop is so helpful and patient with all of my emails about customizing pieces, plus she is an amazing jeweler. This is my ultimate candy shop-absolute favorite store ever. The jewelry collection is eclectic, staff is friendly and helpful, piercers are professional, this is the only place I’ll go to for piercings and jewelry.
Gena Alvarez
Great place. Very clean and tidy. I love to browse and just look at all the beautiful jewelry. The staff is very friendly. Totally recommend coming here.
Lauren Rae
Every time I go in, they're nothing short of courteous and incredibly friendly. Got my nose done there, had the stud switched out there, and each time was smooth sailing. Yes, the prices for the jewelry can seem a little up there. But you get what you pay for and the quality of the jewelry is tops.
Maria Welch
This is the second time I've visited the shop and I like it more each time. I got some cartilage piercings and purchased store jewelry to swap some other piercings. Sarah has a deft hand and Z was knowledgable with an artistic eye. If you know St Sabrina's (Mpls/MN), you know that the quality and range of their jewelry is unbelievable. This store rivals that in the best way possible. Huzzah and many more happy piercings at this store!
Joan Foulk
My fiancé and I brought his daughter here for constellation piercings. The owner, Molly, was very patient, professional, and informative with helping her make her jewelry selections without being pushy. My fiancé’s daughter liked her piercer, and was thrilled with the results. The shop is classy and clean. As a nurse, I was pleased to see appropriate clean/sterile protocols were utilized. The other staff were also very courteous and adhered to social distancing guidelines, even though they were very busy with many clients. Theres a selection of jewelry, from simple pieces to high-end. Very impressed!
Kevin Thompson
Amazing customer service. They helped me exchange my order after I messed up the size jewlery I needed. Will definitely buy from them again. Also the shipped orders are adorable.
arise07
Did a walk-in. Got my nose pierced. Super efficient. Paid about $90 for the piercing I wanted. Super worth it.
Hannah Seyller
Great place for a piercing, especially if you’re newer to them. The person at the front was kind, helped me figure out what kind of jewelry I wanted and what was standard. Also let me know what the price would be upfront so I wasn’t surprised later (they’re not cheap, but quality = $$$). My piercer, Tinker, was great. Walked me through what was going on as he did stuff. It was to-the-point and quick, but not rushed at all. His apprentice was there watching and she was super kind and informative with aftercare stuff. I got my septum done and if I need anything else, i’ll go back to them!
Markie T.
Love this place! The piercers are nice and friendly. They also care and won’t do just any piercing if they don’t think you have the ear anatomy for it which is very helpful and saves you time and money in the long run.
Maurine Peterson
Had a great experience. They were very knowledgeable and explained jewelry styles and suggested types based on piercings. I was nervous to start gauging my ears. They explained the whole process and sized up my original ear piercings for me. Will definitely go back!
Sofia Blacha
I absolutely loved my experience here! My two piercers (Jojo & Madeline) were extremely professional and had very calming presences. My piercings turned out fantastic and I could not recommend this shop enough!
Amanda Adamczyk
APP piercers and AMAZING, AMAZING selection of implant grade jewelry.
If you don't know anything about piercing--your first step is getting pierced with implant grade material (no, "surgical steel" is not implant grade) and getting yourself an experienced, hygienic piercer. This place has both of those things.
Also the prices were good. As someone who only buys high quality jewelry, they didn't jack up the prices on gold or anything.
Very helpful people too!
Lizbeth Bucio
WARNING:EXPENSIVE PLACE. Piercing was great. Must say it was kind of a rip off. They charge every single piece of the jewelry. The bar bell, the gems and for the piercing, plus IL tax. $600 for a belly button piercing and a set of nipples.Jewerly ranges from $100-$300. If you have money to throw then come here. Idk nice place to get jewlery but other places to go and get pierced. Both good and bad.
Mae
I've been here a few times over the years to get different piercings (industrial, daith twice, and septum). The staff is always very professional and kind. They make the process as painless as possible by talking you through it. I've recommended it to friends more than once, and they have had similarly pleasant experiences.
Karina Kedo
This is the place to go. I wanted a simple cartilage piercing and friends recommended Identity. They are so professional and great about handling walk-ins. I had a sizing issue and the staff was super helpful on the phone and fixed it up on my next visit.
Josh Abrams
I had gotten a bad septum piercing at another shop. I went to Identity to get it corrected and they gave me several consultations where they said to wait out the healing process. When it was ready, I got a piercing and was not only able to pick the color of my ring, but the ring was measured correctly and put in perfectly straight. They took their time and it shows. My piercing looks much better now! Madison did a great job.
Aryn Thomas
Santi did a great job on my septum piercing, love it! The place is a bit pricy and bougie, but well worth it. Place is clean and staff seems knowledgable.
Laura Lisy
Super friendly and professional staff! I loved the fact that there were options beyond the standard piercing jewelry, also the store and piercing rooms were incredibly clean. This is my new go to place and will be recommending to anyone who is looking for a new piercing.
Olivia D
Molly was great! I was super nervous but she and another piercer did both my ears at the same time and it only hurt a little. The place was so clean and they sent me home with tons of information on how to help my piercing heal.
C Miller
Staff are incredibly skilled, knowledgeable, and vigilant about their standards of hygiene. Great selection of jewelry. If you want a perfectly placed piercing that will heal quickly with zero issues, come here. I would even recommend identity piercing for parents getting their kids first ear piercing - avoid the piercing guns, pain and crusties at the mall shops.
Ali Fendrick
I knew I wanted a few ear piercings, but didn't know which ones would look best. Molly was extremely helpful and walked me through everything. Everything is really clean, and compared to other places in the Wicker area not extremely expensive. Definitely will be going back!
Victor Aguilar
Fast, sanitary services provided for cartilage piercings. Jewelry is high quality though a bit expensive (piercing services review of Joanna).
Laura De Sousa
I love this place! They helped me put in a nose ring that had closed up TWICE and the second time they didn't charge me. I just got a tooth gem done there and they were so so sweet. Make sure you bring your physical vaccination card so you don't have to run home and grab it like I did.
Nio Gio
The owners are fantastic! They are always here helping out and piercing as well. I've been here on weekends and at night. This place can definitely can get super busy, so expect to have some patience. Doesn't matter if you're modified or just a ear piercing. They have something for everyone. Heads up, the best jewelry is going to be more pricey. Don't expect to purchase $5 crappy jewelry here.
Devika Lakhote
Great staff, they were so warm and made me feel at ease before the piercing. Very skilled artists!
Jill Schmitz
The ladies were so nice and helpful. Very personable and made sure I was happy with my appointment. They spent their time helping me find the right jewelry I was looking for. Would recommend & will go back!
Lara Compton
Absolutely great place to get my 9yo daughter's ears pierced. So clean, so professional. They really made her feel at easy. I was really impressed with their Covid-related protocols as well.
Chevonne Williams
They were absolutely outstanding from the greeting to me leaving was nice I can't remember the guy's name that actually did my piercing but he was really nice very informative even though he didn't tell me till the last minute that he was going to here's my ear with a needle and not one of those piercing guns but even the reason between him not piercing it with the gun versus the Needle was very informative...I liked it and am going back to get the other side...
Caleb Bierbrodt
I believe this is the first rating I have ever posted on google. That being said I do not do this often.
However, considering how great this place was I wanted to do my civic duty and point would-be or current piercees this way. Identity Body Piercing was the best place I could have chosen to get my first piercing. I got my tongue pierced which took all but 15 minutes once everything was sterilized (yes free of microorganisms). Even after I made a mistake of pulling my tongue in too soon before the top stud was screwed on, my piercer was able to re-sterilize my barbell and salvage the piercing in record time.
I returned two days later and had them check for swelling and such and they changed my barbell out (free of charge) to a larger size because my tongue was swelling a bit too much for the current piece to handle.
I had planned on only getting just this one piercing but I am now inspired to get at least an upper cartilage piercing and possibly more because of their excellent service and size-able selection of jewelry .
Dear readers, don't make the mistake of going somewhere else. Also, I am not a robot (mechanical or otherwise).
Marketa Benedetti
I was a walk-in on a Sunday night and they were able to service me right away! I had an idea of what I wanted, but they still gave me time to look through all their jewelry (they have a HUGE selection of jewelry). I also really liked how the front desk showed me what it will cost beforehand, so there’s no surprises when you’re checking out.
Once I decided I wanted to get the rook piercing, I had an anatomy consultation to be sure it would work for my ear. Then they offered me snacks, coffee & water while I waited for the room to be sterilized.
My piercer was Nia Sotto and she was FANTASTIC. I was pretty nervous about the pain expected for a rook, but she talked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable. She also verified that she had the correct jewelry I picked out before piercing me. The pain was a 6 out of 10 for me, not excruciating but definitely more painful than a regular helix piercing. She was really quick with the needle and inserting the jewelry. It was a fast and easy process!
I definitely recommend going to Identity Body Piercing and especially getting Nia Sotto to pierce you!! You get really high quality jewelry here (all of it is either titanium or gold) and even higher quality piercers. I will definitely be coming back in the future for my next piercings!
Rachel
Went to this shop for the first time in search of some plugs in the next size up. Was able to find beautiful stone jewelry, and one of the specialists helped me stretch on the spot. This place has one of the greatest collections of plugs/organic jewelry I’ve seen. Killer service, too. I’ll definitely be back.
Becca Badner
The place to go to for more difficult piercings. They're a little pricey, but absolutely worth it for my nostril piercing. I got it done, it got infected, they repierced it for free. I will say, service depends on who is piercing you...
With that in mind, I cannot say enough good things about Madison. When my piercing got infected the first time(due to my not cleaning it properly), she was the one who checked it twice in two months before offering to take it out and re-pierce in a month. My new piercing took 6 months to heal, I came back every month with my new piercing, either to check on a small bump or to refit the piercing. Every single time she was supremely professional and provided fantastic service, both to my piercing and gave great tups with regard to cleaning techniques. I cannot recommend Madison enough. Piercings get infected and take a long time to heal, and she will be helpful always, even if, like me, you get super nervous and visit time and time again.
Tldr - Identity is good, but Madison is above and beyond and will absolutely take care of whatever you need, no matter how long the piercing takes to heal. I would give her 10 stars if I could, for real.
Maxine
I got a double helix piercing here and it was great! They were busy that day but I was only there for like 20 minutes. It was quick and clean and everyone was friendly and great! I am definitely going back for my next piercing
Emily Henning
Was just there today to get my nostril pierced and am not only extremely happy with the piercing, but loved the environment of the store, the jewelry selection, pricing, friendliness of the staff, and my time with the piercing professional. Super super nice, professional, and even wiped my tear away after the actual piercing :’) will definitely be going back and cannot recommend enough!
Ashley Trulove
I had my nose pierced by Tinker. He was very knowledgeable, kind, and professional. He kept everything sterile and was a perfectionist about correct placement of my jewelry. The shop itself is very clean and they have a large selection of jewelry to choose from. I'd go here again in a heartbeat!
Alice Sartori (Alise)
I never post reviews but my experience with Identity was so great I had to write one. Got my nose pierced here. The girl (I think she was one of the store owners but I forgot her name) who pierced my nose was super sweet and took her time with me and explained the process and cleaning procedure. I came in a few months later to change it out and find solutions for nursing clinicals (no piercings besides earlobes allowed :( ) as well as my industrial that I was getting tired of. The person who helped me (I don't remember who it was unfortunately, I am horrible with names) helped me out by switching my industrial to 2 posts that were easy to hide with hair and a nose post that could be easily concealed with makeup (plus of course a new nose ring). Again, I was thoroughly explained everything and did not feel at all rushed. They have a very large selection of jewelry and the guy behind the counter let me take my time and gave advice on which piercings would look great with my facial features. Love love love this place and I cannot recommend enough!
Carly Zarate
Very professional, total second piercings cost me $210-cheapest earring was $15, but I went for the synthetic version of the princess cut diamond in rose gold, which was $60 a piece. Backings will also run you $20 a piece, so the total cost of the earrings was $160. Hope that gives you a good estimate 👍🏻 …
pauline
Five stars for the people and customer service. Our piercer Tinker was great!
Four stars for being unable to schedule an appointment ahead of time through the website or by calling the number listed on their website. We decided to walk in and had to wait a long time to get serviced.
Rachel
Great experience with getting a cartilage piercing stretched (it had started to close several weeks earlier) and a new rook piercing. Was unsure what to get and everyone was very helpful. Would definitely choose to go back here if I need another piercing while living in the Chicago area or if another piercing begins to close up.
Josie Latino
Had such a great experience! Tinker was so nice and the piercing looks great! The shop itself was super cute as well and they had such a wide selection for jewelery. I will definitely come back here again if I ever decide to get another piercing
Sarah Leonard
Fantastic service. Shop is clean and the jewelry is displayed beautifully. The person helping me pick out my jewelry made sure I understood the cost and helped me find what was best for me. Definitely would reccomend.
Kimberly Lowe
Came in to buy some 2 Gauge plugs. They talked me out of wood but I got some really nice Amethyst and Aquamarine ones instead. All the typical jewelry (necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings...) here is AMAZING.
yadira ortiz
Went in to get my ears pierced and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Sara pierced my ears, she was very professional and never felt more comfortable. Highly recommend! :)
sarah anderson
I've gotten three nose piercings done here and the staff is really patient and talented. the store is incredibly clean and there is a great selection of high quality jewelry. I love that they specialize entirely on piercings.
Genesis Garcia
A friend referred me a couple years ago and this is my go to spot. All the piercers are super knowledgeable and will help you customize your look. I used to go to Spencers for jewelry that would turn my skin green after a couple weeks- NEVER AGAIN. Now I have high quality jewelry that continues to shine after years. My favorite jewelry is the neometal jewelry- lavender opals to be exact. The hospitality and level of client attention is also unreal. I can send a Facebook message and have a quick professional reply in no time at all. They also helped me order custom made jewelry when I was in another country. Overall I would recommend this place!
Chanese Harris
Amazing staff.
Sara who pierced my ear was super nice and wonderful. It felt like she pierced me in 5 seconds lol she probably did to be honest.. she also changed my helix jewelry for me..
I feel bad because another woman helped me pick out the jewelry that I wanted and she was so nice and helpful.
If I lived in Chicago I would be here often getting pierced, but since I don't I'll have to wait for the next time I'm out there lol
*clean place
*friendly and knowledgeable staff
Eva Shonuga
Great service. My daughter got her second ear piercing and she was nervous. I think they handled the situation well. I'd go back.
Sara
Super clean, super helpful staff, super professional with my friend and I who both got piercings. I'd definitely go back for another -- jewelry selection was gorgeous and they get you in and out as quickly as possible.
Melanie Shillibeer
Friendliest staff and awesome experience! I came for my nose piercing and Klaudia was kind, gentle, and very thorough. I was on vacation at the time and even calling back to clarify how to care was pleasant! I highly recommend!
abby ray
I don't normally take time to review places, however my experience here was so great. I used to have my septum pierced and had wanted it redone and a friend had mentioned this shop. I explained to the piercer that I used to have it done and rather than simply repierce it, he checked with a needle and stretched it with a taper to see that it was actually, still open. That doesn't seem like a huge deal, but to me it was because I feel like sometimes body modification shops can have an elitist attitude toward people who don't necessarily know a whole lot about it. In other words, totally could've repierced me and charged me for it and I'd have no idea. On top of that, their jewelry is INSANELY beautiful and you get what you pay for for sure, but at the same token, there's no shame or embarrassment in letting them know you've got a budget. The initial opal septum ring I'm looking to eventually get was $230 dollars but so so incredible, but whatever jewelry you settle for is guaranteed to be good quality and there's bound to be a piece in your price range (mine was $75). I'm definitely returning here whenever I need new jewelry or piercings.
Brandon Brookes
Great body piercing shop. Tinker was able to see my wife and get her piercings just right. Great selection of jewelry and very clean. Will definitely be coming back again! See you guys again soon.
John Vulk
Amazing and friendly staff, and great prices and selection of jewelry!! Highly recommend!!
Leah Lehman
The technicians at Identity were very friendly and efficient. I made an appointment and was taken care of quickly. They have a good selection of jewelry available at varying price points.
Gabi Wonder
I have been looking for a place to buy artesian guages for quite some time and this is THE place to find them! The selection is vast and ranges from ebony, to glass, to precious metals and more. The prices aren't too high and the service there is great! They offer refreshments and will answer any questions you may have regarding prices and processes. The piercers are well trained and friendly, and prices for piercings are standard (same as other piercing shops around Chicago). Highly recommend this place if you are looking for original earrings, ear pieces, and guages.
Marissa Finazzo
I got my septum pierced here. They have a great selection of all types of jewelry and a clean and professional environment. Both the woman at the counter and my piercer were also very informative, helpful, and professional as well.
Alyssa KK
I had a great experience at Identity!! I got my doubles pierced and am absolutely in looove! The staff was friendly and helped me find the jewelry I needed. Great quality of experience and jewelry, highly recommend!!
Kyle Dunn
Wow. What a place. Immediately greeted with a friendly snd warm smile. Told it would be a minute and to look around. It's a nice place. They have nice affordable good body jewlery. I got 2 nose hoops and a nose stud and it was like 78 bucks. That's not bad. I really had a good experience and now will always go back for all my jewlery needs.
Rebeca Perrone
It was recommended that I take my brother here for his first piercing. I would suggest making an appointment so there is no wait. We went on a weekday and while not busy busy we did have two people ahead of us. Large selection of jewelry, clean and friendly staff
Jane Austen
I am very happy with the septum piercing and jewelry I got from identity piercing. The placement is good and the quality of the jewelry is amazing. Lots of beautiful choices. Pricey but worth it.
Elle Vickay
They are rad. Really helpful too, they answered all my questions, and put me at ease so I could better decide what I wanted. Madison is very chill and explains everything before doing it so it's not shocking. I was surprised at how quickly it all happened, and it didn't hurt nearly as much as I thought. Everything is healing wonderfully.
Keith Lannon
Had a really great experience here! The whole procedure from selecting jewelry to the piercing itself was very easy and relaxed. My ear lobe piercings are healing perfectly and look great!
Hayden Lee
I've gotten 2/3 of my piercings here and jewelry for all of them here. Beautiful enormous selection, kind and caring staff, great bed side manner. I love you guys, thanks for your help with everything!
ShaySha
Third time getting my belly button pierced ! First two times it keloid this time I went to Identity Body Piercing it’s going on 2 months and my piercing is healing just fine!
My belly button was inspected to see what kind of piercing was right for me !
I highly recommend this place
Veronica Thorne
I had an appointment here today with Johnny Velez for a VCH peircing, he was highly recommended to me. Identity is very very clean. I was amazed by how clean it was and I am an ocd neat freak. Walking in they were very friendly. I recommend Johnny to everyone, I was barely nervous, but anything I was nervous about he made me feel very comfortable. If I ever want another piercing I will absolutely go back to him.
Josh Thilmany
I decided to get my first piercing on a whim, strolling through Wicker Park, and could not have chosen a better place to do so. Tinker was approachable and accommodating. The studio had a calming presence about it, and I found myself encouraged and supported to think deeply about what type of piercing would suit me best. I will absolutely be back.

Jon Pohl
Our 8 year old got her ears pierced today. The piercer, Madison, was very patient with her and walked her through the process, gave her time to relax and calm down and get prepared before each ear. She walked in excited (well, excited and scared) and walked out proud that she was so brave and went to a professional piercer.
Briana B
Warm atmosphere, which feels rare for piercing shops. Helpful staff. Walk-in friendly. TONS of ear candy.
Mary Waters
So helpful and nice. No appointment necessary. Molly was reassuring, fast and efficient and superb with her sterile technique! And I'm a nurse!
Will send my daughter there.

Although they are a bit on the pricey side, it's WELL worth it. The cleanliness of the business, the professional yet courteous and friendly environment was exceptional. I would definitely recommend others here as well as continuing to go back myself. Thank you guys for all you do. ❤
Ailie
If you are looking for a place that takes the art of peircing and its cleanliness seriously, look no further. I had my conch and nose peircing done here by Claudia. She answers all my questions, makes great jewelry recommendations, and is the only peircer I haven't made move her peircing mark. She's super sweet and super professional. Great place, great team, super recommended.

A R
I went in there with a friend and we were not acknowledged right away, once acknowledged we waited 20 minutes to be waited on when it would have been super easy for the lady working the front to multitask and handle two people at once ... At least to ask what we were there for which was able to pick up a prescription order!
