I don't review but just had to for Tony and Melissa. Went to see what could be done for my daughter's ear piercings - both sides never seemed to have healed right (unfortunate mall choice about 2 years ago), and I thought they'd closed after a few days without earrings. Melissa was so welcoming and helpful, putting us at ease. And Tony thoughtfully listened to all our concerns, answered all our questions, and recommended only what was necessary. After a close look, he determined that only one side had closed; a less scrupulous body piercer probably would've gone along with my panicked request for both sides to be re-pierced. Can't thank you both enough for all of your help! I've got a happy daughter, and her ear piercings seem to be healing just fine this time. =)

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and patient piercing shop this is it! Had a very good experience with Tony switching out a very angry ring that needed to be swapped out to a stud and everything went smoothly. So happy to find a good piercing shop. Thank you again!

My daughter (14 years old) wanted her ears pierced. I found this place and it had great reviews so we made an appointment. They are super. First of all they are very informative and professional. Most importantly they are experts at what they do. They have a great selection of earrings. Even my very picky daughter found some cute earrings in about 30 seconds Every thing was awesome start to finish with our appointment. Will definitely recommend and be back for tooth gems

Drove out to Kailua all the way from Mililani and it was SO WORTH IT! Danica did my piercings and she was fantastic-- super friendly, explained everything, very professional, and extremely kind! She really put me at ease especially because I was nervous about getting my helix and conch. The piercing process was quick and it wasn't as painful as I feared-- much of this was to do with Danica preparing me beforehand and walking me through it all :)The place itself is very clean and organized well, and there are places outside the piercing room to sit (my dad was able to wait there with me). Overall an 11/10 experience! I'm so happy with my new ear piercings and should I ever want another will be returning and asking for Danica!

The service I requested was to get my nostril pierced. The high-end quality of their jewelry selections are phenomenal. The vibe of the piercing shop is like no other relaxed, welcoming, and overall amazing. For the longest time, I wanted to get pierced but just never got around to doing it. A high school classmate of mine, Danica, is a resident piercer, and I told her she was gonna be the one to do it. Performing body piercing is not easy. It takes time and dedication to acquire the ability to safely and skillfully perform the procedure, and she did just that. She provided a thorough consultation and discussed the jewelry selection in detail, the procedure, potential risks and complications, the healing process, and after care guidelines. The shop was extremely clean, well run, and very professional. I highly recommend seeing Danica for all your piercing needs.

I went for the first time at 4:30pm on Friday to get a jewelry piece changed. am very happy with the customer service and professional skills provided by employees. The store is clean and the piercing rooms are private and comfortable. I highly recommend for anyone who feels anxiety around piercing or is getting one for the first time. They’re very kind!

I wanted to make sure to leave a review here about my experience with this Piercing salon. I believe the first time I came in was when I was nine months pregnant, I needed to get my piercings out because I knew I had to go and have an MRI done after my baby was born . I came back after she was born and had them put back in after this. I've probably came back. I don't even know how many times to have them taken out and put back in because I had so much medical stuff going on. I had the same person helping me which was Tony. He took the time to get to know me and understand my situation. I didn't see him since early August (had to go to Cali for radiation) and just went in last Friday . I was away doing radiation & wanted my piercings back! I went in and he immediately remembered me. 3 months no contact and he remembered how I get overwhelmed and always has worked with me to great detail to ensure my comfort. He must have pierced thousands of people and that shows he really cares, to make sure to remember so much about a client really demonstrated to me how he will tailor his work for each and every client. I over the last 20 years I have had piercings I got all over & I've never experienced an artist who went so far to ensure I was ok. To help you understand - I was discharged from the hospital following my craniotomy and shortly after I had my the piercings put in by Tony & even my partner commented on how empathetic , gentle and kind he was. Tony didn't have to go out of his way all these times and he now has a customer for life. Once my daughter is old enough to say she wants earrings, he is the only person I trust , she will be seeing him. If you happen to be scared or nervous about going in, GOif you're feeling embarrassed by anything (I haven't done speech therapy yet , so I'm embarrassed talking in public and Tony was so reassuring to me), GO! if there is any worry or anything - if you go into this salon all the staff are so gentle & kind with their customers (I've been in there several times and just watched interactions while waiting for my apt), just go! I greatly appreciate that Tony and the other staff care greatly about the whole experience and do everything they can to make sure clients are comfortable and happy. I literally hugged him and cried before I left HPC last Friday - THAT is how much his kindness words and kind treatment meant to me. Now I'm tearing up as I write this so time to wrap up!bottom line: amazing place with even more amazing staff. I couldn't recommend this place enough . Thank you Tony and the rest of the HPC staff for everything you do !

Brit was awesome! My daughter wanted to get a helix piercing so I found this place on Yelp and saw the great reviews. Online booking was fast and easy. I was able to complete all of the paperwork online ahead of her appointment The shop has a really great vibe. Very clean and the staff is super friendly. She had an appointment with Brit. She's super cool and made us feel really comfortable and answered all of our questions. My daughter is very happy with her piercing. I highly recommend Hikina Piercing Co!!

Tots and Tony are amazing!! Tots took the time to help me find the perfect earrings, and explain everything to me. The shop is super clean and sanitary. Tony did such a great job putting my daughter at ease...she was nervous going into the appointment, but was totally fine after the first ear, she barely felt the second ear. If you are thinking about piercing your kid's ears, I highly recommend bringing them to Tony.

I will not go anywhere else in Hawaii. I’ve been to their Waikiki location before for my septum and had a great experience despite having a difficult piercing. I love the Kailua location even more! It is smaller but also cozier. Clean, professional, and as beautiful as the other store with better parking. Great selection of jewelry from BVLA and Neometal, and the same great people work here as they do in Waikiki.I went in today because my 20(!) year old lobe piercing got infected. I don’t know why as it’s been healed for 2 decades, but my guess is my new piercings got new germs in the old piercing and my hair/mask continued to make it worse. Jaimie (sp?) at the front desk was as gracious as ever and so friendly and caring. I met with Danica, who so expertly looked at, cleaned, and changed out my jewelry for a “safer” jewelry for healing with a longer post and flat back. My ear’s been itching and throbbing for days, and I swear after she changed it out, my ear immediately felt better, AND I didn’t even know that she put in the jewelry already as it hurt less than I expected.They explained the aftercare in detail and sent me home with complimentary sterilize gauze and a piercing spray. I am so thankful for a great experience and will definitely be back for more when my piercings are healed ?

I usually never leave reviews, but this shop is amazing! I first came in for a consultation for a septum piercing that I thought was pierced in the wrong place at another shop. Danica was super friendly and validated my concerns, and even showed me where my septum was supposed to be placed. After this, I immediately trusted this shop to repierce my septum.I booked another appointment with Brit and the website was so easy to use- I really appreciated the transparency with pricing and the booking process was quick and simple. I came in two weeks later and Brit did an amazing job, with perfect placement! Their jewelry section is awesome and has something for most price points. I left with a cute CBR with a gem and a great experience.Mahalo nui Hikina, I can't wait to come back!

Went to go get a new stud for my nose. Piercer was clean and informative. Also recommended what size I should wear and installed it for me. I’m happy with their service and will be back for another piercing! Mahalo for being so friendly!

If you’re considering a piercing, go to Hikina! I went in for new septum jewelry and Tony helped me out so much. He re-pierced my septum (rookie move kids- don’t go to a tat shop for a piercing). Then he and Tots helped me pick out a custom piece to put in after the new piercing heals. Professional and kind, Tony and Tots saved my septum piercing from being something I hate.

The piercer was extremely patient and informative. No doubt my daughter's ears will heal fine. They have a good amount of jewelry to choose from and they are so caring we with young children. My 6 year old was extremely happy with her newly pierced ears.
