Well, where do I start. This was my very 1st time, having my ears pierced with Empress Piercing, Bridgend. Due to illness of my original piercer, Tia, I had Tom from the Cwmbran studio come down to cover her. I was very nervous, having not had piercings done with a needle before, but I needn't have worried. Tom put me right at ease, explained the process thoroughly, and answered all questions throughout, he was so caring and such a laugh, the process was next to painless, with only a slight pinch as the needle went in. I loved the earrings, which Tom helped me pick, and can't thank Tom enough

Helen is always fabulous!!! Best in bridgend by far x

Its been about 19 years since I had a piercing so I i was very picky with who I went with. I came across Empress Piercing Bridgend who have amazing reviews. Although I had decided on Empress Piercing being the place, I then had to decide who would be the right person to pierce my nose. After some research and reading amazing reviews, Tia had to be the one for me. Tia welcomed me into the shop with a smile and made me feel relaxed. She explained the process and advised me on where the best place was for the piercing. Before I knew it, my nose was pierced. Thank you, Tia, i appreciate you!

I wouldn’t trust anyone else for my piercings Ricki is a master of his art The range of stock and the quality are second to none. I was spoiled for choice with all the different pieces he stocks. He also gives great advice about the placement and practicality of each piercing.

Been going to Ricki for piercings for a while now, always a good experience. Makes you feel right at ease and lets you know exactly what’s what. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to get pierced.

Always a great service (which is exactly why I’m a repeat customer). Replacement to shorter bars in my previous 4 new stack and conch items/piercings. They have all healed really well. I will be going back for some additional piercing within the next couple of months. Thank you as always Ricki 🙏🏻

The team in Bridgend were absolutely amazing. I had such a friendly welcome as soon as I set foot through the door. Tom was really clear when he explained my piercing and made me feel calm and relaxed the whole way through. It didn’t hurt at all and I absolutely love my new rook piercing. Thank you!

Went in for a pair of nipples piercings. Was immediately made to feel comfortable and had no hesitations in getting such an intimate piercing from Ricki. He’s been piercing me for 10 years and would recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much

First time using Empress Piercing and I had such a positive experience. Felt totally relaxed and comfortable the moment I walked in. I had my daith on both ears pierced for migraine relief, Ben was so understanding and I felt very much seen and heard with my migraine issues. I was also reassured by the fact that Ben has trained specifically for migraine piercings which made me feel totally at ease. Piercings look absolutely amazing too! I will be back for more jewellery and piercings 100%. Could not recommend them highly enough. Thank you so much.

Got my third lobes done today! I was weirdly nervous but Ricki put me at ease straight away. This was my third time getting pierced at Piercing Co. It is the best place I’ve ever been pierced, having gone to chains and small studios alike across Bridgend, Cardiff and Bristol. Ricki just knows what he’s doing and you can just see that he’s a master of his craft. I have full faith in him to do a great job every time, highly recommend, thanks Ricki!!

For my daughter’s birthday, she had her ears pierced. The employee took their time to ensure she felt comfortable and happy throughout the process. Great care was taken to ensure the piercings were symmetrical, and everything was handled very professionally. After the piercing, the employee patiently explained the aftercare and made sure my daughter was completely satisfied.

Ricki was very friendly and put me immediately at ease! He showed me the difference in quality between jewellery and measured the ear piercings I had already had done elsewhere to make sure the ones he did were perfectly placed! Very happy and already can’t wait for my next piercing!

Highly recommend!! Tia was amazing with my daughter having her ears pierced for the first time! My daughter found it really comfortable. No tears, the quality of the earrings are good too! Thank you!

Had a double piercing on one lobe to match older piercings on the other side. Ricky was awesome and very professional. Cleanliness, hygiene and attention to detail were brilliant. Would totally recommend. If I choose to have another piercing, this is where I'll come for sure.

My daughter came in to have her ears pierced and they were both absolutely lovely with her. They made her feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the whole experience. She hasn’t stopped talking about how pretty her sparkly ears she’s completely over the moon! Thank you both for making it such a positive and special experience for her. Highly recommend!

I’ve had several piercings done by Ricki over the last two years and he has always been amazing. He takes the upmost care with hygiene, your comfort and ensuring that the piercing placement is perfect!

It was so amazing! Tia pierced my brow and angel fangs and was so patient with me and gave me a sweet to raise my sugars! She also let me have some time after the piercing to stay still and breathe. definitely coming here again!!💚💚

10/10, Ricki is an absolute angel. I was nervous about getting my snakebites done but he calmed me down straight away and explained everything from start to finish, making sure I had no questions before starting! Would happily go back again and will recommend The Piercing Co to all my friends and family. Thank you for giving me the piercings I've wanted since I was a teenager! 💜💜

Tia made my daughter feel at ease having her ears pierced, she explained what everything was for so she wouldn't be scared, absolutely excellent service, definitely would recommend and will be back!

When i got to the store I was pretty nervous to have my piercings done as I always am but last time I had my septum piercing in Empress Piercings and had an amazing experience so I decided to come back. My piercer was Georgia who completley exceeded my expectations of this appointment! Georgia was attentive to my needs and worries, talkative and extremely helpful not to mention how precise and quickly my piercings were done! I 100% reccomend Empress Piercings. I would not bat an eyelid to come back again. Thank you so much, I am so happy with my piercings! Many Thanks,Ellie.
