Got a conch piercing done here a few months ago. Nick is fantastic! He really focused on making sure the placement was right, and even changed it a few times to make it look right. They give clear instructions on piercing care and do a great job helping you pick out jewelry (holding up the gem to your ear so you can see exactly what it will look like before you decide). The scheduling process is super easy as well! I'll definitely be back for my next piercing!

I’ve never had a bad experience at SIX16. Staff are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly and the jewelry selection is top notch. I am also told repeatedly by my dentist that as much as they dislike lip and tongue piercings, whoever placed mine (thanks Nick!) did a phenomenal job because I have zero tooth or gum issues, and I have had my piercings in both my tongue and lips for several years at this point. Bottom line, I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my piercing experience!

This place was great. I scheduled to get 2 dermal anchors removed and both Ryan and Nick worked on them. One was a breeze but one didn't want to come out easily. We eventually got it and these guys made the experience so comfortable. Super chill guys, 10/10 would get jewelry pulled out by them again ?.

Edit - been pierced again by this studio, two helixes and my friends felt confident enough to get their first helix and rooks piercings done. Continually impressed by the staff here.Six16 is by far a best in class piercing experience - and I have had several piercings over the years. I highly recommend them to everyone - even if you are just buying jewelry and not getting pierced! It goes without saying that the shop is clean, the jewelry is all high quality and beautiful.The staff - front desk and the piercers - both work with you to create the look you want but also make great recommendations (including telling you no!) if a piercing won't work as well for you . Six16s jewelry is what some consider high end - you are not gonna to find $15 cubic zirconia studs here - and the jewelry is priced per piece, plus a piercing fee. You will find jewelry in the $80+ range that is unique, looks stylish, and is perfect for all genders. I have a really high pain tolerance and also am lucky enough that I can wear low quality jewelry and used to visit ok establishments until I came here. I have had a much better piercing and healing experience here than anywhere I have gone. Your piercing is essentially a permanent "statement piece" and so making the investment is worth it.I originally tried this place out as I like to get pierced with people and I have several friends who are very sensitive and wanted to get pierced. The first time I was pierced here was several years ago and I had a helix done - my second - and the process was so well done I barely felt anything. My friend got her helix done that day and absolutely loved it. Today I came in and got my septum done and again, I barely felt anything which is a testament to how knowledgeable and skilled the staff are . My friends got their second lobe piercings and three helixes done. All of us are so happy with placement, jewelry and quality. Highly highly recommend. Thanks so much Six16 staff!

I was really nervous to get an old piercing fixed but the whole staff at six16 were so reassuring and kind. The selection of jewelry they have is beautiful too so it was nice to take a peek at what they had available! Really kind folks and I left feeling so much better :) I wish I could give them more stars for the quality of care they provided. My piercer was Nick and he was very reassuring and patient with my concerns and questions which made me feel that much more at ease during something I felt anxious about. Could not recommend them more!

I had an awesome experience with Lindsay (the apprentice but you'd never know it by how well she knows her craft) for my eyebrow piercing. A lot of reviews say it's pricier but I was honestly surprised with my total being lower than I planned. This isn't some shady spot this is a place where the piercers are knowledgeable, take your anatomy into consideration, and explain everything in great detail. So much more than getting a hole punched in ya face. Clean, minimalist environment, calming music. Just generally good vibes.Also, as with anything you do get what you pay for. High end jewelry is always going to cost more and the service is totally worth it. I got my septum pierced at a biker shop like 16 years ago and while it was cheap and fast, it was very much crooked. I have had several facial piercings and six16 goes above and beyond.Edit to add: you can always stop in to get a total before your appointment. They add it up right there in front of you. Not asking for a total up front if you're worried about a price point is kind of on the buyer here, and after I did the math on the site with the fees I was expecting to pay I was pleasantly surprised with a lower total cost.

Got a septum piercing from Ryan. A total pro, it looks great, and literally everyone in the shop was so nice.

I was desperately looking for a piercing place so I could get another piercing and found this one. I got my helix pierced, loved everyone I talked to who worked here, and the waiting room was really cute. The girl at the front desk (I think her name was Emma) gave me a lot of input on what jewelry would look good with the rest of my piercings. I got pierced with Lindsay, the apprentice, and she did an amazing job. Next time I need a piercing I will definitely be coming back!

I called Six16 with an infected piercing that was making me nervous. They were able to get me an appointment that day. The staff were so kind and very knowledgeable. I felt comfortable and confident using their recommendations, which cleared up the infection in just a couple of days. Very clean facility with privacy for piercing experiences, and a great display of jewelry options. I will be happy to be back!!

Six16 is the best piercing studio that I have visited in general, let alone in Pittsburgh! I have several piercings and have visited most of the piercing studios in the Pittsburgh area. Hands down, Six16 is my favorite by far. I saw Nick today for a helix piercing and it was a really great experience. All of their staff are great, it’s very clean, they have beautiful jewelry, and Nick was very kind and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend this piercing studio and their services enough. If you’re on the fence about where to go for your next piercing, please know that Six16 is THE spot!

Ryan removed a very painful septum piercing I got from another shop that was too small and cutting into my nose. He was super friendly and patient, explained every little thing, and was very comforting while I got a little teary-eyed about the situation. Everyone was really nice and I will be sure to return next time I want any piercings done!

Wow. Just got both nostrils done by Nick at Six16.First off, the shop is layed out beautifully and the staff are extremely welcoming and excited about your visit.All of the jewelry is high quality and many varieties of styles to fit anyone's taste. I cannot stress the level of attention to detail and professionalism I experienced with Nick.I was relaxed and comfortable from start to finish. I walked in a 7.5 and left a solid 9.5. I recommend anyone looking to get something done to stop wasting time and book now!Service: Nose piercing

I've had both piercings done at sixsixteen and jewelry changes. It is a quality place with excellent customer service. Very knowledgeable about piercings and willing to answer questions. I would just be aware that they are a luxury piercing establishment, so the selection is smaller than most piercing places and it might be more than you'd expect to spend on alternative jewelry. so whenever I have gone I expect to drop a couple bills. I never regret going and always love the set I choose.
