Jessica is absolutely amazing. She is kind, friendly, gentle, and has a way of making things a lot less awkward. The facility is also VERY clean, and the rest of the staff are helpful and friendly as well. After care instructions are clear and easy to understand, and they provide you with good products to care for your new body modifications. I highly recommend Black Hole for your body modification desires.

I had a great experience at Black Hole Body Piercing. Jessica had all the answers to my questions and was quick about the actual piercing part. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

I went with my son to get his ears pierced at Black Hole ... Jessica the tech was very sweet & thorough explaining exactly what she was going to do as well as post-care instructions (its quit different from the ear piercing gun from back in the day). Jessica made the whole experience great & his pierced ears looked perfect. Super happy. Thanks Jessica & Black Hole Piercing you guys are awesome.

Wes

Wes

Completing his apprenticeship in May of 2000, Wes spent the majority of his career in high volume locations such as Berkeley, Walnut Creek, and San Francisco. In this time, he has developed a couple of favorite piercings to preform, which are the tragus and the faux rook. He finds both piercings to be beautiful and elegant. While working with clients, Wes maintains a fun and relaxed environment to ease the individual while calmly and safely executing the procedure. Your satisfaction is his top priority. New to Reno, he is deeply honored to be joining the staff at Black Hole and elevating his professional piercing career to the next level.

He is a huge nerd, obsessing over the Marvel movies (MCU) and loves reading comic books. He's also very passionate about drawing and creating fan art of Disney, Star Wars and of course Marvel characters. Sharing joy and inspiration is his greatest reward.

Bambi

Bambi

Bambi began piercing back in 2010 in central Minnesota, but over the years he has worked in some of the industry’s best shops across the US, until he finally settled on the finest here at Black Hole. Having the chance to assist so many people in feeling more confident with themselves through body piercing is a continuous motivation to always be learning, as well as always staying humble and appreciative. Although he enjoys them all, orbitals and surface piercings are some of his favorite to perform.

When he isn’t enjoying his time in the shop, Bambi likes to stay active through hiking, kayaking, and the gym regularly, along with finding time to travel and add to his growing collection of stamps in his passport. And of course he enjoys his quiet moments at home engulfed in a video game from time to time.

I've been here a bunch for jewelry, but I just got my first new piercing by Bambi. He was amazing!! ... It came out really beautiful with no complications and he was fun to hang out with. I would recommend him as a piercer and the shop in general.

I went here today to get a helix piercing and I had an amazing experience! I had Bambi as my piercer and he was friendly and professional ... When Bambi called me in, his personality immediately put me at ease. During the piercing process, he explained everything in detail to me which eased my mind even more knowing that my piercer was very knowledgeable and knew what he was doing. I highly recommend Black Hole Body Piercing if you are ever looking to get a piercing done!
— Jonathan F.
BAMBI! We had Bambi as our piercer and he was nothing but patient, professional, knowledgeable, and kind. We were a group of four and he took his time on every single one of us. I would highly recommend Black Hole to anyone looking for a trustworthy atmosphere.
