Amazing experience at the new Cardiff shop. Courtney did a fantastic job with my seven year old daughter. The shop is clean and incredibly professional. We’ll definitely be back! 🙌🏽❤️

Amazing! This was my first time at Empress Piercing, to get my coconuts (lol) pierced. Courtney made me feel so relaxed. We had a nice chat all the way through. She was really quick and professional and made it as simple and painless as possible. She also wrote down the info of how to take care of my piercings, which was really helpful. 10/10 would recommend!

I got my nose pierced today and had the BEST time! Morgan was so patient with me (I’m seriously so indecisive 😭). I’m so grateful for such an amazing experience, everything was done with total professionalism, and I felt completely comfortable the whole time. I absolutely love my new piercing and couldn’t be happier! 💖✨

I got my vertical labret pierced a month ago and I’m so glad I went through with it! The shop was super clean and the piercer made me feel relaxed and informed throughout the process. The piercing itself was quick—just a sharp pinch and some pressure, then it was over. I would definitely recommend empress and will be going back for more piercings.

Gorgeous piercings by Olive! 🫒💗✨️ Seriously won't go to anyone else now! She is so knowledgeable, makes you feel chill & less nervous. Whilst also making sure you get the best piercing possible when balancing body anatomy and your preference. She talks you through the process before/during/after and really makes the whole process a safe space for questions, or breaks jf you need it. Super happy with my experience with Olive and KTF Sudios 10/10

Jade gave me a floating navel piercing Monday and the experience was amazing!! She gave me lots of information about aftercare which I haven’t had elsewhere. It was also a super calm environment, even through I was getting pierced <33

She was really lovely, really patient and helped calm my nerves. Took the time to make sure my piercing was in the right place, didn’t feel rushed at all. Would love to be pierced by her again! :-)

Absolutely amazing! Morgan is fantastic with placement, advice and overall piercing process! She looks after you from start to finish! I keep coming back for more piercings! Couldn't find better care if I tried! Can't wait to come back for more! Thank you Morgan! You make my piercing experience absolutely incredible!

Morgan was absolutely fantastic during my third lobe piercings appointment today - she was really clear and reassuring and allowed me to be picky with placement and my choice of jewellery without hassle! The piercing itself was extremely smooth, fast, and almost pain free, with no discomfort at all in the hours after! Best piercing to date and I'll definitely be heading back to Morgan for my next appointment (as soon as I've worked out what to have next!). Thank you so much Morgan for making the whole experience so fab! 🫶🏻

Wonderful place. Very calming & aesthetically pleasing. The staff are a lovely bunch of smashers, friendly, calming, polite & really helpful with assisting where piercings would look good. I had Leah & she was just fab & Morgan was there & she is a reel darling. Had Conch & Flat x 2 & also a replacement for a year old piercing that I had been unable to remove. Would definitely advise those of you looking for piercings wherever on you bod to definitely go to Empress Piercings ❤️

Getting my belly button re-pierced was much easier than I had thought. The team was friendly and very helpful. The piercing was efficiently done, thank you.

Morgan at Empress Piercing was amazing! Knowledgeable, informative and reassuring. She did an anatomy check to make sure the piercing was right for me and guided me through jewellery options. Her cleanliness was not only what you would expect from a piercer but so much more. I was so impressed with everything during my appointment, and most importantly, the piercing (septum) barely hurt! Will definitely book with Morgan again!

Fantastic, super friendly, really great talking through everything. So happy with my new piercings and can’t wait to go back for the downsizing.

I recently got my nose pierced and had such a great experience. The process was quick and professional—the piercer explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable the whole time. The actual piercing was just a sharp pinch that lasted a second, and after that it felt more like a dull ache. I definitely recommend empress piercings in Cardiff. I will definitely be coming back for more of my piercings very soon :).

I came without an appointment and still got my ear pierced Swiftly and Safely, I was walked through the process, made to feel safe and comfortable. Overall I had a very pleasant experience, the Lady that pierced my ear was kind, friendly and did an amazing Job. If your looking for a simple piercing you might be lucky like I was and get it done by walking in, I would get an appointment just to be sure especially if you want smth a lil more elaborate.

My daughter came today for 2 piercings, nose & belly button. Michelle was very professional & so lovely & friendly who h definitely put my daughter at ease, she didn't even flinch! Studio was spotless on arrival & thoroughly cleaned after piercings. Aftercare was given to us. All in all very very pleased with our visit & will be booking back in for more services.

Came for both a tattoo and piercing on the same day. Shaun as always is an excellent tattoo artist and always receptive to your ideas, highly knowledgable and surprisingly gentle! I trust him entirely. Olive was an absolute gem. Excellent energy and put me entirely at ease for my first piercing experience. Super helpful and again… surprisingly gentle!! Always a joy to visit 😘
