Best Body Piercing near me in Castle Quarter, Cardiff

Went in with a friend and ended up getting a piercing as well! Morgan was so warm and welcoming and down to earth! Amazing service! First time in the Cardiff Branch! I always recommend Empress to anyone considering getting a piercing!

Honestly the best lash lift in cardiff! Toyah is amazing! She is always so professional and patient with me. Really appreciate you and everything you do ❤️

Olive was fantastic, really put me at ease and talked through every step of what she was about to do and the piercing process, she checked multiple times how I was doing and made sure I was completely happy with everything before going ahead! Everything was super sanitary and Olive especially just made it all such a fab experience

The appointment was amazing, sha made me feel so comfortable and not ashamed at all, I loved her work and her patience and how she was getting everything handled with patience and giving it the right time and attention. Best wax experience i’ve had so far in Cardiff would deffo recommend it!!! x

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! 🙌🏽❤️

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.

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!

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! 🫶🏻

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.

Really great experience with Courtney! Amazingly helpful sourcing jewellery for me as I have an allergy to a lot of metals, and found all instructions etc for the care super clear. Great piercing experience, will absolutely be back!

Great experience having (another) piercing with Courtney Cummings👑 …she appears confident, skilled and this puts you at ease 💯 In fact, the whole vibe at Empress is calm and welcoming, with everyone being so knowledgeable about their craft and the jewellery involved… it’s a piercing hot-spot for me 🎉🫶🏼🫵🏼

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!

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! 💖✨

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 was extremely helpful during my design consultation today! She talked me through the various pieces of jewellery available in a clear and thorough way, and provided clarification in response to all the questions I raised. I’m really looking forward to hopefully returning for my piercings soon! Thank you Morgan! 🫶🏻☺️

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!
