The experience was exceptional!I’ve been wanting to pierce my ears for a long time and researched about Monarch. When I decided to get my ears pierced, I wanted to do it on my birthday and tried to make an appointment online. At first they didn’t have anything available online so I called. They communicated that something was wrong with the booking system and was able to get me in.Courtney is so friendly and helped set up the appointment. She was very kind with taking out earrings from the case and letting me see them up close.Kelly is beautiful! In her attitude and everything. She explained everything as she did it and why. She assured me when I was nervous.I had such a good experience. I know that if I do get another piercing I’m definitely going back!
Incredibly kind staff. I had no problems making an appointment on short notice a couple days after my helix piercing started causing me problems. I ended up having the piercing removed due to healing issues (something about this particular piercing just did not agree with me even after 1.5 years of babying it), and the process was quick and painless. I was in and out of the studio in less than 10 minutes! I’ll definitely be back to browse their collection of jewelry for my other piercings.
Everyone was very kind and wonderful! I had a lot of anxiety before my appointment as I had never been here before and it was my first facial piercing, but Kelly was very patient and professional and took time to thoroughly explain the process as it was happening. Vibes were great, 10/10 !
Just went in to browse jewelry and get a piece changed and had a great experience. Looking forward to getting some projects done here! Ive never seen a shop with so many options. Lots of high quality jewelry for reasonable prices and its all cute. I wont hesitate to come back. Staff was very sweet and professional too! Thanks!
This is the only place I’ll get my piercings, forever and ever. This shop has the loveliest energy and everyone is so kind and patient. She explained every single thing she was doing and what I needed to do to care for my piercings. You won’t be treated with this much care and patience anywhere else. I can’t wait to come back 💛
I went to Monarch in order to have a diamond nostril stud with an l-bend removed and replaced with a stud that could be changed out if I wanted or needed. The staff was so professional, personable, and helpful. I bought a new piece I love and had each of my questions answered and comments addressed. The studio is great, and so is the staff! Ill definitely be returning for more!
Kelly, Rett and the entire staff at Monarch were a joy to work with. The salon is absolutely beautiful and super clean. The entire staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Every step of the way, from choosing jewelry to the piercings and follow-up procedures, Kelly and the team take the utmost care to ensure you’re safe and happy.
Monarch is absolutely the best, and the only place I will go for piercings! Kelly and Corky are friendly, kind, funny, and knowledgeable. Kelly has assisted me with reopening older piercings done by other studios, and has performed 9 new piercings for me. Their studio is clean and inclusive. Love them!!!
Kelly was amazing!! i was getting a not so comfortable piercing and she put me right at ease. i appreciate the time she took to explain everything thoroughly so i knew exactly what to expect. the place was extremely sterile and the jewelry is great quality that you can wear forever. i would recommend this place to anyone!! thank you for making this experience so easy and thank you for my new piercing!!
I got second and third lobe piercings done today and this studio is so clean, calming, and professional! But my favorite part was the precious staff! Kelly was so amazing and I felt so calm in what is normally a stressful situation for me! She helped so much with the process of choosing jewelry and helping out with solutions that fit my price point a little better! Sooo worth what you pay for! I will definitely be back!
I had a double nostril piercing done and they both healed beautifully. Most comfortable, respectful, and informative piercing experience Ive ever had! Everything was so clean and everyone was so kind
I had a great nose and helix piercing experience at Monarch! Kelly was so kind and calm which kept me calm during the piercing. The jewelry is beautiful and high quality too. Kelly is very professional and the sterilization process is visual which is reassuring. I’ll be back to get 2 more piercings… ok probably more!!
I went in to Monarch today to get my daith pierced and I was blown away by the professionalism of Monarch! I was so nervous as this was my first piercing outside of regular lobe piercings, but the vibe of the studio was immediately calming. All the employees were so kind and respectful and really put me at ease. Kelly was an amazing piercer and did a phenomenal job with the piercing itself. She was also so sweet and I loved talking to her, she made me feel so much more relaxed just by chatting with me, plus she explained the whole process as she did it so I would have no surprises. I will definitely be back when I’m ready to get my nose pierced!
I had been thinking about a new piercing for months, settled on Monarch, and Im so freaking glad I did! Kelly is the absolute best! The studio is beautiful and relaxing, it felt more like a spa rather than a piercing studio. Everything is clean and sterile, you can tell immediately that there is pride in their work and studio. Kelly put me at ease effortlessly, walked me through everything we were doing before we did anything, and my piercing is wonderful. I got a somewhat rare piercing, but Kelly is very experienced and highly skilled, so it was a breeze! I strongly recommend this studio for any piercing needs, including jewelry and advice. Thanks, Kelly!
Somehow I overlooked the calendar and ended up coming to my appointment two weeks early (lol). Possibly because I was super excited to get my piercings. However, the lady at the front and I laughed it off and she helped me schedule an appointment that same week in a slot that someone else had cancelled. While I was there, she welcomed me to browse the jewelry; which is absolutely gorgeous by the way. As someone whose skin gets really irritated by nickel, I appreciated the high quality.With that being said, Kelly and her apprentice Rhett are amazing. Rhett was very patient and helpful when I picked out my jewelry, and Kelly thoroughly walked me through the piercing process so there would be no surprises. I was a little nervous as I thought both my anti-tragus and snug piercings were going to be really painful, when in fact they both felt like a small pinch with a little pressure. I have to attribute that to Kelly’s gentleness and expertise.I also appreciate that they do not re-use any materials from client to client. Both the marker Kelly used to mark the placement of my piercings and the tool she used to snap on my charms, I got to take home. They thoroughly sanitize the jewelry as well.I am extremely satisfied with my piercings and the service I received. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. I will definitely be going to Monarch for all my piercings.
The staff were extremely friendly and informative on the entire piercing process. The environment is light and cleanly and has a professional yet hospitable atmosphere. The jewelry is gorgeous and there is a wide variety to choose from. The only factor that concerned me was the price point of the jewelry. The jewelry is beautiful and are good quality but there are no plated options for the jewelry which make them extremely expensive. They do have stainless steel alternatives but the options are limited and are really basic. I had an overall great experience but be prepared to spend a pretty penny on the jewelry.
*update to my review. After getting my piercings at Monarch (and being well into my healing process) I developed a significant problem with one of my piercings. Kelley was incredibly skilled at resolving the issue. It’s one thing to perform a great initial service - it’s an even better thing when months later you help someone out of a predicament (that was in no way Monarchs problem)!! This confirms why you should get your work done from a respected professional. It’s great to know you’re in good hands moving forward should you need follow up help!! Thank you!!!!!Great business, great selection. A+++ If you want a professional and personal experience this is the place for you. Curation choices with this level of expertise in piercing techniques is generally found in LA and NYC!!
My wife knew i wanted to get gauges in my lobes for over a year. After a few bad experiences with other piercers, I was disheartened and put it off. The wife found this place and made an appointment for me. Im glad she did. The shop is bright and friendly. After talking with Kelly, she had no issues with what I wanted done so we picked out my plugs and got to it. The process was quick and relatively painless considering I was going straight to a 6 gauge. Now we get to the next day (this morning) and I woke up to zero pain, pressure, heat or oozing. I will refer anyone who needs piercings done to this shop and if I ever make the decision to add more piercings I will definitely be back!
Rhett, Kelly, and Courtney were very kind and helpful when I stopped by today! I had gotten my helix pierced elsewhere and didnt walk out feeling very knowledgeable or informed about how to care for my new piercings, so when I lost an earring and needed to replace it, I found Monarch. I am so glad I did! I made an appointment to shop for jewelry, but they were able to squeeze me in for an earring change with a short wait. The shop is clean and bright, its easy to find, and the vibes are so good. I am so grateful for their kindness. Any future piercings I get, I will be sure to make an appointment here!
Awesome studio! I got a double helix piercing and absolutely love it. The jewelry selection was great and Kelly was so kind and helpful through the process. The piercing itself was gentle and quick. Definitely coming back for more :)
I took my kids in today to get their ears pierced and I have so many nice things to say about them. I really appreciated how friendly and thoughtful the staff out front were, how careful they were about cleanliness, and how gentle and kind the piercer Kelly was. Overall, this was a great experience, and I would absolutely go to them for anything else in the future.
I had an appointment for a nose piercing, but the morning of my appointment my cat’s health wasn’t doing very well and I was extremely worried about her. However, I still decided to go to my appointment. When I walked in I was instantly greeted with kindness and warmth. I had a stuffy nose from crying and was worried about the nose piercing not being able to heal since I probably wasn’t going to stop crying anytime soon :( I explained this to Kelly and she was very understanding and patient with me saying we could reschedule to another day. We also discussed other options and I decided to instead pierce my daith. Kelly walked me through every step during the piercing process and was extremely informative when telling me about the aftercare. As I was leaving she gave me a hug and handed me a flower. I’m very thankful to Monarch for not only giving me a new piercing I love, but also being very kind to me and gifting me a beautiful flower. Thank you so so much ❤️
What a great experience! Kelly and the whole staff are amazing and so kind. The shop is so cute and the jewelry selection is awesome! Highly recommend them! Kelly made us feel so comfortable and the piercing itself didn’t even hurt!
I had the absolute pleasure of having Kelly remove my dermal piercings for me and it could not have gone more amazing. She cared about every detail and always makes sure you’re comfortable. Definitely an amazing person and piercer! Love this place!
I had my flat pierced on this visit to Monarch. I have had 3 piercings by Kelly. She is simply amazing at her job! She is very knowledgeable and explains everything upfront to make you feel comfortable with your service. Her staff is really helpful. I would highly recommend this establishment a 10/10!
I cannot praise this place enough! It was my first piercings and I was definitely anxious about it. They gave me all the time I needed and answered all my questions. I had a pleasant experience with all 3 staff I came in contact with. Kelly was so patient and kind with me during the piercing process. Will definitely be going back for any future piercings! Also, my friends liked the jewelry and they thought Kelly got the placement on my slightly different shaped ear lobes just right. Overall Im very happy with my experience!
Walked in and from the start I knew this was the place to be! I was treated so good by the receptionist and Kelly was a phenomenal person! She made sure I knew what I wanted, and talked me through the whole process. Super clean and well taken care of piercing shop. I dont think Ill be going anywhere else to get my piercings done now!
I got my septum pierced this past Sunday by Kelly. The entire staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. I was somewhat nervous beforehand, but after seeing how knowledgeable and kind they all were it really put me at ease. The piercing itself was quick and over in no time. Kelly walked me through the entire process and made sure to thoroughly explain the aftercare to me. I’m beyond happy with my piercing and I really appreciate that they do a free checkup a few weeks after the appointment to make sure the piercing is healing well. I highly recommend them and will definitely be returning for any future piercings I want!
As a doctor, I chose Monarch because of Kellys sterility protocols, emphasis on safety, and outstanding skill set. She is an amazing professional and I would feel comfortable sending all of my patients to her.
I just got my pa piercing done by Kelly. The shop was very clean and the entire staff was friendly and helpful. Kelly was very knowledgeable and professional. I didnt feel like I was being rushed through, and she had no problem answering all of my questions. The atmosphere there definitely helped with any nervousness I had, and I wouldnt hesitate to go back for another piercing. Piercing looks great! Thanks again!
They were great with my 9 year old. They are expensive, but I can see why. They are extremely clean and professional.
I am so impressed with Kelly and her staff! When you walk into her adorable shop you are immediately greeted. While Kelly was helping another customer, one of the super nice members of her staff showed me all of the jewelry. The jewelry selection here is so amazing that I had a hard time choosing. Everything is extremely clean and neat and Kelly is very knowledgeable and friendly. I was a little anxious but she made me feel so comfortable. This was by far the best piercing experience that I have ever had. I highly recommend Monarch Piercing!
Such an amazing experience! I got my conch pierced by Kelly and she was awesome! Monarch is extremely clean and the staff are so friendly. The jewelry selection is awesome too! I highly recommend choosing Monarch for all your piercing/jewelry needs!
Very happy with my experience at Monarch. Everyone was very kind and professional. Kelly is beyond amazing. She walked me through the entire process, made me extremely comfortable, never rushed me and was just great to have a conversation with. She treated me like a friend and not just a client. Thank you to everyone there. I highly recommend Monarch for all of your piercing needs…. And the jewelry is gorgeous!!!
Kelly is amazing, I have been to Monarch several times now and every time I am blown away by her knowledge, professionalism, and skill. The studio is very high-end and definitely has a sexy vibe. As a middle-aged gent with a slightly younger girlfriend, we both were extremely comfortable. She loved Kelly, who can put anyone at ease and is super friendly. The great ambiance and overall experience has led to multiple trips for some fun and delicate piercings for each of us! I never thought I would get pierced, much less multiple piercings. Makes me feel like such an undercover stud masquerading in corporate America:-)! Monarch is unlike any other piercing studio on the East Coast and possibly nationally!
Everyone at this shop is SO nice. They are all so warm and kind and take their time to explain things to you. Their jewelry selection was fantastic with some truly beautiful pieces and everyone is very knowledgeable. If you want a piercing or even jewelry swap, don’t go elsewhere. Definitely visit Monarch first!
Monarch was recommended to me by a friend as the place to go for piercings in Chattanooga. I’m so glad I followed the advice and waited for this appointment to be available. Kelly was SO friendly, patient, thorough, and efficient. I appreciate how professional and experienced she is but what really set her apart is her kind nature which put me at ease. I’m really no good at piercings and needles and Kelly’s conversation and careful review of everything that was happening tamed my anxiety. The shop is extremely clean and there’s even an autoclave in full view. The piercing room is very comfortable and is very clean but doesn’t feel medical or off-putting. The entire experience was positive. Kelly is just darling and made me feel safe, welcome, and comfortable. My friend was right: this the place to go for piercings.
Monarch Piercing definitely gets my strong endorsement for piercings — especially first timers.I got my first (and currently only) piercing here a couple months ago. The boutique is super clean, and the staff are wonderful. I’ve interacted with Kelly and Rhett, who are both exceedingly professional, courteous and conscientious.The piercing rooms look like doctors’ offices, that’s how pristine they are. I also love that they use an autoclave for disinfection (medical grade machine that destroys all microbial life).Kelly performed my piercing. She walked through every step, making me feel very comfortable. It was basically painless! She also thoroughly went over after care. She also provides follow up appointments to check your piercing.Recently I needed to get in about an issue I was having with my piercing (this issue was not at all related to my experience at Monarch), and even with a fully booked schedule Kelly and Rhett worked me in right away and fixed the issue seamlessly.The jewelry is gorgeous and of high quality.Cannot say enough good things!
Kelly was so sweet and amazing and I had an amazing time chatting with her between piercings. She checked between each one I got (6 total!) to make sure that I was alright to keep going, and let me know that if I needed to reschedule some for another time that it was possible. Left a $50 tip, and Im so happy with my piercings! Will definitely be recommending this place to my friends and tell everyone where I got them! She also went over cleaning procedures with me and let me know what was going on throughout. Cannot leave a high enough review on her professionalism and the safe, fun environment she created for me.
I brought my daughter in to purchase a safe pair of earrings after a horrible experience with a cheap pair getting stuck in her ears. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and professional, but more importantly kind. They were very sweet to my 5 year old, who was a little nervous due to her recent earring issues. They helped us choose a pair that were age appropriate, super cute, and safe for little ears. The earring were a little different because the post is on the backs and the front snaps on. The staff were very patient and made sure I understood exactly how to put them in. I would definitely recommend them and look forward to getting a fun pair of earrings there in the future. I don’t see myself needing any piercings, but if I decided to, I would never walk back into a sketchy tattoo parlor or Claire’s to get it done. I would pay the extra money to go to Monarch and feel totally confident that it’s a clean place with piercing experts!
Kelly is incredible ... Rhett is a great ‘side-kick’ ... and the studio space is beautiful! I took my youngest daughter to get her lobes pierced by Kelly a few years ago and I KNEW I would only use Monarch from that point on! On Mother’s Day, Kelly did an awesome job on my ‘frontal helix’ piercing, and the piece of jewelry I chose from their selection is beautiful. Be familiar with their policies and protocols (which are clearly listed in their website) prior to your visit, and you will golden. CHATTANOOGA IS LUCKY TO HAVE MONARCH!
Kelly and her assistant are the most professional, caring, genuine people. They take the greatest measures to ensure the safety of their clients. They sell only top quality, beautiful jewelry to compliment the piercings and clients. I will only consider Kelly when contemplating a new piercing. I am grateful for the responsible measures they take each and every day to maintain a clean, sterile, and welcoming environment for all of their customers and staff.
Kelly is wonderful! Ive had 3 piercings done at Monarch and theyve all been wonderful experiences.Kelly takes her time to make sure you are comfortable and that the process goes as smoothly and painlessly as putting holes in your body can go.The jewelry is all beautiful and makes me wish I had an endless budget!I will definitely continue to come back to Monarch to be pierced and to upgrade my jewelry!
My daughter got piercings for her earlobes and helix at Monarch. They gave exceptional attention to safety, cleanliness, and comfort, especially since she had a piercing mishap a few years ago. They have a great selection of jewelry, allowing her to get exactly what she wanted. We will definitely be returning for her next piercings in the near future.
I had the best experience. Kelly was amazing and calmed all of my nerves. She was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all my questions and concerns. They also had the exact jewelry I had been dreaming of. If you’re looking to get a piercing, there is no other place I would go.
Im an old hand at piercings now and have a number of them from stores of wildly varying qualities - I can say without a doubt that Id count Monarch among my best experiences.My first time in the shop occurred as a bit of an emergency - one of my older piercings was refusing to go back in and I decided that enlisting the help of a professional was a better choice than forcing it myself. Id misunderstood my appointment date and come in a week earlier than reserved but Rhett and Kelly managed to graciously squeeze me in since it was an emergency situation (thank goodness!).The store has a simple layout and is both inviting and very clean - with my emergency resolved, I decided to come back in later to get a new piercing done and Im so glad that I did.Pricing for a new piercing is a combination of a flat fee for the service itself, plus some variability for the cost of the jewelry itself depending on materials. Obviously this means the cost is a little on the higher end since even the low end jewelry is titanium, but piercings are very much a you get what you pay for type service (and I feel like I can say that since Im 8 piercings in now from 4 different stores). (Also, for what its worth, titanium is a great choice for people with metal allergies//sensitive skin because it contains no nickel!)I felt the price was very much worth the clean environment, knowledgeable and friendly staff, professionalism, cute jewelry, and amazing final result.Thanks Monarch! Youll see more of me in the future. :)
The entire experience was beyond what I expected! I had one ear already pierced ages ago and was planning to pierce the other side. We talked through options, and came to a plan that I was completely satisfied with. At no point did I feel rushed or pushed. Kellys energy is infectious!Update: Came back six months later for a second piercing and my experience was not unique. Service continues to be outstanding and all the folks at the shop seem to enjoy being on staff!
Wow! Monarch has really set the standard for piercings. Aside from being super accommodating and the cleanest studio I have ever set foot in, they are also all members of the Association of Professional Piercers. There is no other studio around within nearly 200 miles holding that accreditation. They go out of their way to make sure your jewelry goes through a special sanitation process and that you feel comfortable the entire time. Their selection of jewelry is top-notch grade, stunning and incredibly unique. I can’t go on enough about how wonderful the experience was for me with Ms. Kelly Carvara. She made me feel super relaxed during a time that would be otherwise horribly nerve-wracking. I would go here again and again and I wish I would have discovered Monarch sooner! If you’re on the fence about a new piercing, do it here! You will be glad you did. You’ll leave with much more than just a piercing. They go above and beyond the norm, and that’s what makes it so special. Thank you again!
Monarch is definitely a great place to go for your piercings. Kelly did my piercings and exceeded all my expectations. She was super knowledgeable, approachable, and kind. I would highly recommend Monarch and Kelly any day!
I absolutely had an amazing experience here. I went in super nervous about the piercing i was getting and they made me feel so comfortable! They answered every question i could think of with such knowledge and made sure i understood it all.The receptionist was amazing. He approached me and starting explaining it to me and i could feel my nervousness melt away. He was absolutely great.Kelly was so professional and laid back. I was super comfortable with her. She explained the whole process before and how to take care of them after. She was amazing as well.The building itself was so clean, and welcoming. I loved the layout of everything. And was able to look at the jewelry for future piercings as well. Plus they can change the color of the metal of it!!I can go on and on about this place. It will be for sure the only place i go for piercings!☺☺☺☺
Kelly is great! So friendly and very helpful. She explained everything so well and answered all of our questions. Weve been there twice now and will go back for every piercing! We recommended this place to everybody considering a piercing. She is great with first timers, especially young ones like my little girl.
I loved my experience with Kelly at Monarch! She was so nice and sweet. Very understanding of my nerves and did a great detailed job of explaining everything in regards to what to expect and how the after care and healing would be. It was extremely clean and very lovely inside. Husband and I were both very impressed! We will definitely come back for anything else we decide to have done! Thanks Kelly!
Kelly, the shop owner, is just FABULOUS! Such a calming, professional, and sweet presence! The employee she had there the day I was there (Rhett) was also amazing! He helped me to select jewelry while I was waiting for my appointment and was SO patient, kind, and funny! Just the BEST experience overall with my first piercing from Monarch, and I am booking my next piercing as soon as I completet this review!
I had my first experience at Monarch Body Piercing yesterday and I plan to be a lifelong customer! My entire experience was pleasant from start to finish. Kelly greeted me the moment I walked in and she talked to me about jewellery, the piercing, and pricing up front so that there would be no surprises. She talked me through the procedure and answered all of my questions before she did anything. She has such a soft and comforting demeanor that my nerves never got the best of me. I loved the cleanliness and sterility of the shop and I look forward to my next piercing there! Highly recommend!
Monarch Piercing provides step above in customer service. Kelly is an endless well of knowledge and skill. When you walk into the shop she has a skill to put you at easy. She is friendly and easy to talk to. Her products are all beautifully displayed and they have a wide range for any price range. Years of skill and practice as an experienced piercer shows in every step of the process. I have been especially impressed with her after care and willingness to answer any question you might have. I constantly recommend everyone I can to visit Monarch.
I went today for the first time to get some jewelry changed out by their guest artist, Denise. I was walked through the jewelry section, which definitely hold the best selection in town and made my choice. It was sterilized while I waited in their autoclave. The prices are a little higher than what you will find in most shops in town, however the metal and gemstones are top quality and they do have options between different budgets.My bridge piercing I came in with was not ideal for me. It had been pierced with a curved barbell instead of a straight one which caused sagging of my jewelry which pulled my skin. They fitted me with a perfect match that made my piercing look SO much better and more professionally done without shaming me or the artist that had performed the piercing.The entire staff was so friendly and this was the best, most personalized experience at a piercing studio that I have had. I cannot recommend enough.
I went in yesterday to get my nose pierced. John, a visiting piercer, did my nose. He was so cool and reassuring. He explained every step he took and was very gentle. I love my nose piercing!
First thing I noticed about this shop was it was extremely clean! Very impressed! Second was the welcoming atmosphere. They made me feel so welcome! My piercing artist was Kelly, she was absolutely fantastic! She is very knowledgeable and makes you feel completely at ease. I went in to get a daith piercing to see if it helps reduce migraines. It wasn’t painful at all! If you’re considering a piercing, go to Monarch and ask for Kelly! The staff is so knowledgeable and helpful! Thanks guys, you made this piercing painless and enjoyable
Oh my goodness. All of the 5 star reviews are really well earned! This place, Kelly and Rhett are AMAZING. Like truly GOOD people. They are so kind and patient. Rhett spent a ton of time helping my Mom and I pick out jewelry. He was so warm and thoughtful. You dont find many people like him anymore. The facility is impeccably clean and beautiful too. Kelly is just as warm and so sweet. I didnt get pierced today (just a jewelry swap) but she was gentle and told me what she was doing etc. I will definitely be coming back. I drove all the way from Knoxville and wont go to anyone else ever again. From the moment you walk into the door to the moment you leave, you feel welcome and cared for. Thank you so much Monarch!
I got my septum pierced here a few days ago. My experience was absolutely AMAZING! The jeweler helped me create a wonderful piece that I absolutely adore. He was VERY knowledgeable with answers to any every question I had. Kelly was so sweet and walked through every step of the piercing so there we no surprises. The shop itself is beautiful and very clean. Nothing but good vibes al around. I am 1000000000000% happy with my entire experience there and will always recommend them to anyone interested in a piercing.
I had such a lovely experience at Monarch! The staff is extremely kind and knowledgeable. I booked here because they are a single use facility, and they did not disappoint! They were very patient helping me find the perfect jewelry, and I felt so comfortable with the cleanliness and vibe. If you’re looking for a piercing studio, this is most definitely the place ❤️
I couldnt have asked for a better septum piercing experience!! This is a beautiful place with beautiful people. Both Kelly and Rhett were so kind and respectful - absolute dreams to work with. I felt like they were my friends by the end of my short appointment. I will be back! A magical experience like no other 💗
I brought by 9 year old yesterday to get her earlobes pierced. I am so glad I did. Ava said that she wanted me to say how happy she was that Kelly didnt surprise her with the needle or change up what was happening from what was explained. I was happy with how clean and sterile everything was and how kind the employees were. I had two kids and the staff didnt seem annoyed to have kids hanging around the place. I completely recommend Monarch Piercing over any place at the mall with a stool and a fun. :) Kelly is a professional who takes her work seriously.
I had the absolute best experience at Monarch. Kelly did my piercings and she was so knowledgeable, kind, patient and professional. She walked me through every step, explained the process, and made sure to answer all my questions. The facility was very clean and elegant and all the jewelry options were of very good quality. Monarch exceeded my expectations completely and I will absolutely be going back in the future and I very highly recommend Monarch to anyone looking for a good piercing experience!
I got my cartilage pierced at a tattoo shop... dont do that. My cartilage around the piercing became inflamed and piercing bumps started to form, so I booked an appointment with the staff at Monarch. I can not imagine a better facility to get pierced! The staff were extremely helpful, friendly, and professional, the facility was extremely clean and organized, and booking an appointment was extremely convenient! The staff answered any questions I had, made me feel safe and comfortable, carefully explained the piercing and healing processes, and made sure that I understood how to properly take care of my piercings. Monarch is the ONLY business I would recommend for any and all piercing needs!
I had a great experience here at Monarch! The staff was kind and very helpful. Kelly did a great job with my tragus piercing, communicating what to expect beforehand, and answering any questions! I’m very happy to have come here to get it done and would definitely recommend it to everyone else.
This was my first non-ear piercing. Kelly and Rhett were professional, personable, and the sweetest people I have ever met. I felt comfortable because Kelly walked me through every step of the piercing procedure as she did it and Rhett answered all my questions about jewelry with an air of kindness and honestly. The entire experience was wonderful— I couldn’t have asked for anything better. I plan on buying all my future jewelry from here and 10/10 would (and will) recommend this shop to everyone who wants a piercing done in a quality shop by quality people.
I highly recommend coming here for any piercings and jewelry, the procedure is really top notch and the jewelry is of great quality with much selection, and the customization with anodized titanium jewelry was such a nice surprise! Ive gone multiple times, for my nipple piercings and ear lobe piercings, and I look forward to possibly coming for more. Another treat for coming here is the friendliness from Kelly and the rest of the staff (Rhett and Courtney), its always a pleasant visit.
Such a great experience! I went last week for a daith piercing and could not believe the atmosphere I walked into. The location is very welcoming. The gentleman at the desk was super helpful and did a great job walking me through the process. When the nerves really started to flow Kelly was super calming and did a great job explaining everything pertaining to my new piercing (even the correct pronunciation doth :o) I could not say enough good things about this place and have already been spreading the world on what a great establishment it is!
This was THE cleanest place I have ever been in. Sharp, clean, edgy, welcoming, beautiful, the establishment itself is just gorgeous. The owner is just as fabulous and wonderful. Miss Kelly did a wonderful job on my helix piercing; she walked me through every step and the piercing experience itself was quick, efficient and was over before I knew it. I was blown away from the moment i walked in the door and was never once let down the entire time I was there. My boyfriend even made the comment, its a shame Im not the piercing kind of guy, because Id love to get a piercing from her.I highly recommend Monarch Piercing. Its family friendly, CLEAN, and run by the most fantastic woman. You will not be let down.
The entire staff was great. Kelly was so sweet and excited to do my first piercing. 10/10 would recommend.
Everything about this studio is perfect! Everyone who works there is so amazing at what they do. Kelly is by far my favorite person to be pierced by. She is wonderful at keeping your nerves at bay and is so calming. She also pierces with out of this world skills and techniques . If you want the best piercing and jewelry experience this is the place.
Went in today to get my conch pierced. Everyone there was so friendly! Kelly was so professional and helpful. I am OBSESSED with my awesome dagger conch piercing!! I will definitely be back for future piercings and jewelry.
UPDATE: I was the one who hadnt gotten their piercing and left the review. Now that I have my piercing, here is my final review:I am absolutely in LOVE with Monarch. I went in, ready for my piercing. I was treating myself for my 18th birthday to my belly button piercing. Paperwork was super quick, and they have the sterilization machine in the front so that you can truly see that everything they use is clean. I was nervous to get my belly button pierced, and I openly told Kelly that. She reassured me, made me laugh, and calmed me down. I BARELY felt the needle. Kelly checked on me and kept making sure that I wasnt woozy, even though I told her I wasnt. She was taking care of me like a mom! I LOVE Kelly, she is officially my soul sister! Thank you so much for making my birthday the best birthday yet, for making me feel so safe and cared for, and for the best experience ever! I will be sending EVERYONE here!
Kelly is wonderful! The shop is super clean, and they have a great selection of quality jewelry as well.We were in town from Florida, I had spacers in my daiths (due to an MRI) and needed some new hoop earrings. We located Monarch and stopped in.What a fantastic experience! Kelly has a great sense of humor but yet, exceptionally professional.Outstanding person, outstanding shop and, an outstanding experience!Thank you, Kelly!
Monarch is amazing! Kelly and her staff (especially Ryan) are very friendly, courteous, and professional. The shop is clean, and each piercing is done with sterile equipment that is thrown away after the piercing. You definitely are paying for quality at Monarch, and you get what you pay for. If youre willing to pay a little bit more, youll get quality and service that is guaranteed for the life of your jewelry. I highly recommend Monarch for all of your piercing needs.
I just got my smiley pierced and I am beyond happy with my experience. Everyone was so sweet and helpful! I was running a few minutes late to my appointment so I called to let them know and they said “all that matters is that you get here safe” and then when I got to the shop the customer service was amazing. Kelly did a great job and informing me about everything I needed to know and answering all the questioned I had. Will definitely be coming here in the future for other piercings!
Best experience! If you are thinking about getting a new piercing, look no further! From the moment I walked they were so welcoming and knowledgeable. The have a great selection of earrings. Kelly cares about the experience of her customers and making sure they know every step of the process.
Kelly is amazing! All of my previous piercings had problems but every one that Ive received from Monarch has healed beautifully and without problems. The space is beautiful and serene and the selection of jewelry is unique. I will only get piercings here.
Got my first peircing done here. They were awsome. The staff is super knowledgeable and goes over everything with you every step of the way.The covid guidelines are awesome. You can tell they care about the health of their staff and customers, and they are willing the make the sacrifices necessary to keep everyone as safe as possible.The staff was also super colorful. Literally and figuratively! They came off as a group of people who proudly express themselves and enable their customers to do the same.Professional, informative, caring, and accepting. 5 stars!
We had 3 generations in this shop on 2 different days, we were treated with incredible respect, they were very happy to help us and they spent quality time with us until every question we had was answered. Their customer service cant be beat, I have never felt so comfortable and appreciated and left the shop feeling happy and exceptionally educated. During the second visit the professionalism viewed and experienced was stellar, I worked in the OR for years so I knew what to look for particularly in sterile procedures. It was a very professional and calming procedure with perfect placement and very limited pain involvement. It is very obvious to me that the staff and owner are well educated, caring and compassionate people, they exceeded my every expectation!
I had been wanting to get an industrial piercing for a while and finally got the nerve, found Monarch on google and was impressed with their ratings and reviews and scheduled a consultation. From the moment I met Kelly she made me feel extremely comfortable and was so informative, helpful and so sweet! I wasnt completely sure I wanted the piercing done the day I walked in, but her demeanor, flexibility and transparency about the process boosted my confidence to go ahead and get what Id been wanting. Every step of the way Kelly made sure I knew what she was doing, assuring me of the high standards and cleanliness, how long I should expect it to take, honest and informative about the process of the piercing (especially during) and about healing it and she is just so easy to talk to that it put any nerves that I had at ease (where I am normally a wreck lol). There are not enough great things to say about this experience; it was quick, easy, FUN and the staff are amazing!! I will most definitely be going here for any future piercings, and highly recommend that you look nowhere else!
Every experience I’ve had at Monarch Body Piercing has been absolutely top notch. Owner and piercer, Kelly, is ultra-professional, knowledgeable and above all, kind. Her staff follows suit, and goes above and beyond to provide a customer experience that is pleasant from start to finish. They also consistently carry an array of beautiful jewelry. I simply cannot recommend this shop enough!
I have to say I read the reviews prior to going to see Kelly. I had lots of reservations about what I wanted done. I did my research, I read every page on her website! Other reviews complain about the pricing! Those are people whole want it done cheap. Kelly is an amazing person, answered every one of my questions. I had a large gauge piercing done on both my ear lobes. Very sterile, very nice, made me feel very comfortable and she did an amazing job. It’s not no tattoo shop who makes you pay first and then does the work. She performs her task and then payment comes after. I trusted everything she said and her time spent training and the supplies she uses cost money. I didn’t mind paying her fees. She’s awesome.
I will definitely be returning for future piercings. I got three conch piercings and these were my first piercings since getting my lobes done with a gun when I was 9. Personally, I’m not someone who gets super anxious or freaks out with pain but they made sure I felt comfortable and knew what was going on the whole time. The atmosphere was very nice and everyone was so friendly and professional. Overall, it was a great experience.
I had the best experience of my life! The staff is so professional and courteous. Kelly is the greatest and the sweetest, she totally put my fears at ease. I will be making another visit. If you are thinking of piercing, please call Monarch!! AWESOME!!!
I was greeted with a smile from the guy in the front he was very friendly and welcome me right in with a great attitude. The place was very clean.Kelly was awesome she explained everything about my piercing she was very knowledgeable about the healing process of my piercing. You even would get a date to come back to make sure everything was good with the piercing. I give this place 5 thumbs up!!!! Will be visiting with them again in the future. This place is very professional!!!
We had a very pleasant experience. The owner was extremely friendly and did a wonderful job with my piercing. He was very patient and answered all of my questions. My piercing looks great and is beautifully placed. Loved their techniques as well; much different than any piercing Ive ever had. Their credentials and training speaks for itself. Well definitely return and I will refer all of my friends to Monarch!
This staff is absolutely awesome. I went in being super nervous about getting my nose pierced but Kelly Carvara easily calmed me down. She is definitely in her element doing this and I knew I was in good hands with her. The environment is incredible. This is definitely the best place to go and get piercings!
Staff is always so friendly and knowledgeable. Jewelry options are more pricy than other places, but it is worth it. You get a great professional experience, while making sure youre comfortable, with no hassel or complications.
I did quite a bit of research before I decided to get my helix pierced, and Im so glad I discovered the local gem that is Monarch Body Piercing. I couldnt have asked for a better experience. My piercing is doing so well.It is abundantly clear that Kelly is very passionate about her work. She took the time to explain each part of the process in detail, and made sure that I had a chance to ask any questions. I was very nervous, but Kellys voice and demeanor were so calming. She is such a cool person.Everything is sterilized on the spot and single-use, and they only sell quality jewelry. Ive been very happy with my Anatometal threadless - bought some for my other piercings too!A few days later, I called the shop with some questions about aftercare, and Kelly again was so helpful and thorough. My experience with getting my jewelry downsized was also seamless.Aside of the actual piercing, this shop is just plain cool! The jewelry is artfully displayed among trees and interspersed with iridescent butterflies and insects. Gorgeous! I made an appointment online, so I wasnt waiting long, but I could easily stay entertained for a while just looking at the beautiful things in there. Im excited to go back and buy more cool jewelry when my piercing is healed!I am more than happy to pay a fair price for quality products and professional services - I highly recommend Monarch!
These are the best people and piercers ever! Kelly is so sweet and wonderful and knowledgeable, she takes good care to make sure you’re not going through excessive pain (I mean a piercing is going to hurt but some people/places make it worse than it should be). She pierced my septum and I loved the whole experience and my piercing (excellent placement!) and she recently changed out my jewelry for me and helped me pick out exactly what I wanted. I plan on having more piercings in the next few months and I am only going to her, that’s for sure. I know that everything is sanitary and clean and that I’ll be treated well. This is truly the only place to get pierced in Chattanooga!
Kelly was amazing! This was my first time visiting and I felt very welcome from the get-go. Put your mind at ease because Kelly knows what shes doing. I had my daith pierced and Im lovin it! Make an appointment so you know for sure you wont have to wait. They couldnt have been more friendly, the shop is super clean, not to mention beautiful. If youre thinking about a piercing and wondering where to go, wonder no more. Fly on over to Monarch! 😊Thank you so much Kelly!
I can’t say enough amazing things about this place. It was my first time being pierced at Monarch but I will for sure be going back for any other piercings I want in the future. Rhett greeted me and immediately connected with me. They were extremely excited to help me with my jewelry and talked me in to getting paired nostril piercings instead of one (it didn’t take much, he said that they would be easier to get aligned and paired piercings go for a cheaper price than getting them both separate) and were very price-considerate about jewelry. Kelly was super helpful and checked out a tiny bump in my nose to make sure it was able to be pierced before I got them done and was super accommodating. She let me take a break in between, and even helped wipe off a tear that I shed when I got my nose pierced (I could use this in every day life LMAO). Such sweet and amazing people who are great at what they do. Tons of amazing jewelry pieces and the vibe was just exceptional. It was worth every penny and I will be back soon for more piercings.
The workers were all super nice and it was really clean and cute environment. You also get to keep a cute lil skin pen which was great and they helped me out when I didn’t have enough cash. It’s been almost a week and my piercing hasn’t had any complications (e.g. infection).
Hands down the best piercing experience I’ve had so far. The studio was clean and welcoming and the staff were super friendly and informative. I got my lobes re-pierced after years of not wearing any earrings. I had previously had gun-type lobe piercings at both Claire’s and the jewelry counter at Walmart when I was a teen. (I’ve also gotten other piercings at piercing studios.) While this visit cost more than what I spent as a teen, the quality of jewelry and piercing is so much better (and worth it!). In previous piercings, I dealt with perhaps not aligned piercings (that made it hard to put an earring in), as well as metal reactions from the earrings used in the piercing gun. At Monarch, both staff members spent a good deal of time answering my questions and going over care(which has changed since I was a teen!), while the piercing itself was over before I knew it. I’m already loving having flat-back earrings and I’m super excited to be able to easily change the fronts. I literally can’t wait to get more piercings and bring my daughter here to get her ears pierced!!
Kelly and the guy at the desk (I didn’t get his name) were super nice the guy at the desk was super helpful and nice making my mom and me feel super comfortable and relaxed I was a little bit nervous when I got there because it was all settling in and when it was time to choose my earring he helped me choose what kind of earring to get and helped my mom feel better about getting the earring that won’t mess with my allergies. And when Kelly got there she was nice and made me feel better about getting the piercing she answered the questions I asked and gave me helpful information about what I had asked. I got a daith piercing it was a great piercing she did an amazing job and I love it. She was super gentle and told me everything that was going on. They both were just great overall and if I’m ever getting another piercing I will surely go to them
I went in for a Septum piercing, my first body piercing, yesterday and could not have had a better experience. Kelly walked me through everything from how she was going to sterilize her equipment to what to expect from the piercing and and healing process. She and the host at the front desk made me feel incredibly comfortable from the moment I walked in,and Im confident that I got the highest quality piercing possible. If youre thinking of getting anything pierced, dont bother going anywhere else. Monarch is THE place to go!
I had an amazing experience here! Rhett was delightful from the moment I first called! He is so knowledgeable about the jewelry and helped me pick out 2 stunning pieces! Kelly is so professional and talented! She explained every step she took. She absolutely found the exact right placement of my jewelry for both aesthetic and comfort. The shop itself is not only gorgeous, but spotless as well. I would give 10 stars if I could!
I came in for two piercings. Everything went so smoothly. I dont have anything negative to say at all. Kellys positive attitude was so infectious and I had nothing to be nervous about in no time. Kelly was so much help and was so thorough with all the details of what to expect with these piercings and the aftercare that comes with them. I loved how the environment is also so incredibly clean and sterile. Theres a lot of jewelry to pick from too! This would definitely be a place Id recommend for anyone wanting that first, second, or tenth piercing. Thanks, Kelly! See you again for my check up!
One of my all time favorite businesses! Kelly and Rhett are SO nice, SO professional, and unbelievably welcoming. Piercing shops can sometimes be run by folks who seem to want to bring their clientele down, but Monarch has always made me feel valued and supported in both my jewelry choices and piercing needs.
I got both of my nostrils pierced in my hometown and struggled to heal them for almost a year. At the suggestion of a piercer I knew through social media, I drove to Monarch from AL and saw Kelly. She took her time evaluating my piercings and explaining to me what was going on. After changing out the jewelry, both nostrils started healing within a week. I drove back to Monarch again from AL to get my septum pierced and had another perfect experience! I HIGHLY recommend Monarch to anyone looking to get pierced and will only see Kelly in the future.
I went in yesterday for a nose piercing and was thoroughly impressed! The entire staff is extremely professional and very kind. Everyone worked with me to find a piece of jewelry that I loved. The shop itself is beautifully set up and very clean!Ive had other piercings from other places, and this one was by far the most welcoming and professional.I would absolutely recommend this place to everybody!
If you need piercings THIS is the place to go. Kelly and Rhett are so kind and knowledgeable. They will work with you to make sure your piercings and jewelry are exactly what you want and suit your body. This is the cleanest facility and they go the extra mile to ensure that everything is clean and safe. I cant recommend them enough and I promise youll be glad you used Monarch! Theyre truly the best!
Hands down the most amazing piercing experience I have ever had! Kelly and the jewelry specialist (Im so sorry I forgot his name) were the most professional, knowledgeable, sweetest, and chill people I have ever met in a piercing/tattoo studio. The studio has this gorgeous zen like quality that is soothing to the nerves, unlike other places I have been where it was overstimulating as soon as you walk in the door. I will never go anywhere else to get pierced. They are also a latex free studio! Score!Thanks again, Kelly!! See you soon!
This place is amazing! The service is professional and Kelly gives you a nice, calming feeling. The shop is so beautiful and has a great selection of high end jewelry. I was super excited to find genuine tiger’s eye and couldn’t be happier! I was also happy that everything is performed free hand.Seriously amazed that this exists in Hixson!!Kelly is an extremely kind, down to earth, and very talented person and I can’t wait to go back!
Super a pretty and clean in there but for like almost $400 she pierced my doubles unevenly spaced lol
I wanted a professional piercer to do my first nostril piercing. I did not want to go to a tattoo shop that also does piercing. Monarch fits that bill perfectly! They’re very professional and the shop is incredibly clean! The staff was very professional and very knowledgeable about the jewelry and piercing. I felt very comfortable going to Monarch for my piercing.
This place is amazing! Rhett was so kind and helpful in picking out the perfect piece (which I am in love with! Its beautiful!) for my rook. And Kelly was so calming to my nerves and made the process as close to painless as possible. I will be recommending them to everyone I know 😊
Beautiful places, super clean and great ambience. I went in to get a conch piercing put back in and they fit me in with no issues when though I didnt have an appointment, they even waived the fee! I will definitely go back as Im itching for a other piercing! Kelly and staff really have it going on!
Kelly is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. I had a piercing done in Atlanta that never healed, so she repierced it for me, and its healing so nicely. The space on Main street is awesome, too. I would highly recommend Monarch!
The vibes at this studio are immaculate! The energy is calming, comfortable, and so clean. I had the best experience and will definitely be recommending them to anyone who asks.
Kelly did an amazing job with my daughter (5) that ended up not even wanting to have her ears done. But seriously, amazing encouraging attitudes, beautiful jewelry and no pressure for my small one. Super clean and welcoming facilities! Im going back in a few weeks to get one done for myself.
Totally professional and competent. I was completely at ease during my experience. And even phone etiquette was on point. I felt very welcome while being received at the front desk as well. A world apart from the egocentric environment that tattoo shops that offers piercing tend to have. I felt like my business was appreciated rather than being made to feel like I was lucky to be paying too much money to be man handled by someone who was almost too busy to deal with me. And of course my piercing looks amazing and is spaced perfectly. I didnt have any problems with it at all. I will only go to Monarch for now on to be pierced.
A welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, a CLEAN organized shop, and a wide verity of jewelry.Kelly is a professional, kind and patient.I was holding off getting my ears repierced after I had a bad experience at a mall kiosk when I was a young girl. I had visited and researched other piercing shops, to find that the staff were limited on their knowledge of piercing, or were only available odd hours of the week. Thanks to a google ad I found Kelly, and her staff at monarch piercing in hixon (almost 45 minutes away for me). Kelly and her staff took the time to listen to all of my concerns, and answer my questions in detail. Even though they were busy I did NOT feel like I was waiting in-line at the doctors to be poked and sent on my way. Kelly made sure I was informed of everything that she was doing, and that I was comfortable before during and after.It’s now a week later, my ears are healing well, and haven’t had any discomfort.I would recommend Kelly her staff to anyone that may be looking for a piercing.
I had the best experience at Monarch with Kelly!! She was super sweet, VERY knowledgable, and really down to earth. She really helped me pick out exactly what I wanted and I felt very confidant letting her stick a needle in my body! Did I mention how adorable the shop is?! I plan to become a regular at Monarch!Side note: this place is legit when it comes to cleanliness and sterilization.
I love, love, love this place. Ive never had customer service like this from a piercing shop. I couldnt be happier with Kellys work, I got exactly what I asked for and she has the personality to hit it off with anyone she meets. Ill be going back soon for more work! I cannot recommend this shop enough, you will not regret going to see them.
I received two piercings at Monarch after they reopened since the pandemic began. They are doing everything they can to be sanitary and it really shows. Yes, this place is more expensive than other piercing places so do keep that in mind, but it is WELL worth the price. My piercings from here have healed the quickest without any issues and the least amount of pain, and the piercer Kelly takes her time to align your jewelry symmetrically with your body and she uses jewelry sizes that work with you anatomy. Seriously, nowhere else in the area cares like these people do. GO 👏HERE👏👏👏
We had a great experience having my 6 year old daughters ears peirced. Very professional staff and great at their work. Will definitely be back for my other daughter!
This was my first visit to Monarch. I came in to get a daith piercing and had the pleasure of guest piercer, Morgan Strong, doing my piercing. The staff is terrific about explaining the many choices for jewelry, the process of the piercing and how to take care of it. Both gentlemen were very personable and I will be back. Extremely clean shop and it is obvious that they know what they are doing.
Monarch Body Piercings was so kind, understanding, patient, and VERY clean. They made me feel very safe and taken care of. I didnt feel pressured at all. The shop is very clean and beautiful, and the staff takes care of you. They help you if you want input but dont push you into any decisions. And my ears look great!
Absolutely loved the service I got here. Very friendly staff, super clean. I couldnt ask for a better place to go get my piercing. Kelly made sure I was comfortable. Look no further for your piercing needs. What are you waiting for? Call them. I have no regrets.
UPDATE:Went in for my ear piercings (daith and helix) and was once again highly impressed with the customer service and quality care I received. Cannot rave about Monarch enough and can’t wait to go back!………………Only been for a consultation so far but I was blown away by their friendliness, expertise, and quality products. Can’t wait to go back for my piercings!
Both Kelly and Rhett were knowledgeable and so sweet! They answered all my questions and calmed my nerves as well as providing thorough instructions during piercing! Highly highly recommend to anyone wanting to get piercing! The facility was also very clean and neat.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I got my daith pierced here. I cant speak highly enough of the people and the process. Super clean rooms, Kelly talked me through what she was doing, and I had a follow up appointment to make sure it was healing right. Have recommended to several people who have asked about my beautiful daith ring. Also, her placement was spot on...my migraines are gone. She obviously cant guarantee health related results, but placebo or not, it worked for me.
I came into Monarch earlier tonight and was absolutely amazed! The store is very clean, beautifully put together and has a lot of selection! Kelly was very informative and awesome. I will definitely be back for more and would recommend to anyone looking to get pierced!
Soo professional and clean!! Very knowledgeable and helpful. Shop is adorable, bright and immediately puts you at ease. Best possible experience I could have asked for. Will definitely return!
Just got my ears pierced here today and all I can say is wow. Kelly and Rhett were so sweet and made me feel so comfortable. They both took time to show me around and explained every step of the process. Just great energy from these two. Now I can’t stop staring at my gorgeous new jewelry. Can’t wait to come back for more!
This was the absolute best piercing experience I’ve had. They make you feel completely comfortable and are so welcoming. They take all the time to explain and show you everything. I’ll never get a piercing anywhere else. I can’t recommend them enough!
Highly recommended to us, and definitely could see why! Awesome place, very clean and beautiful, with a gorgeous collection of jewelry. My son had his ears pierced there today. We had a great experience and appreciated the kindness, clear explanations of everything, and gracious service provided by the wonderful people there. Definitely recommend!
This is the best experience possible. It’s what you hope for when you think of getting a piercing. I am a big baby and very particular. They not only encourage you to relax and take your time, they also celebrate you for being an advocate for yourself.I am in love with my ear piercings and am excited to continue working on my collection of jewelry through them.Go here. No where else. They also helped me recover from the bad advice another piercer gave me. So glad they are here in chatt.
Got a foward helix piercing from Kelly at the tattoo expo, she did a great job with the placement of the jewelry and the piercing experience itself! Monarch is the cleanest piercing business Ive ever seen. They are super professional and make sure that everything is sterile before they pierce anything, which made me feel very comfortable with the process. The jewlery is beautiful as well and the prices are very reasonable. Thanks Kelly!!
Kelly and Rhett are my new go-to piercers. Ive been recommending them to everyone I know! My boyfriend wanted to get me a new top to my nostril stud, and we first looked around Atlanta since thats where I live. We didnt really find much that interested me, and I figured Chattanooga might have better options. I found Monarch through Goggle, and we made a pitstop there during our vacation across TN. Im so glad we did! I got a beautiful new nose piece, and I loved their service so much that I came back a week later to get a new piercing and more ear studs. I will definitely be making the 2 hour drive back for all my jewelry and piercing needs.
I had my navel done here a couple weeks ago and loved the experience! Morgan was a guest piercer at Monarch and did amazingly. He walked me through the process and helped me choose the correct jewelry for a new piercing. I really appreciated the sterile procedure and care that was taken of me. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, friendly place.
Kelly was great ! The jewelry selections are phenomenal, and the sanitation processes were as well ! Very good quality atmosphere, jewelry, and piercing supplies - so do be prepared to spend a little extra $ as it costs to keep such an amazing studio open ! Thankyou !!
Monarch gave my friends and myself a wonderful experience. She is educated, professional, and felt like I was talking to a friend. The facility is clean and unique and she provides quality services as well as a wide variety of jewelry. I will return to her for ALL of my peircing desires and needs!
Kelly is amazing! Shes incredibly knowledgeable about her profession. She always makes me feel incredibly comfortable. I know that when I schedule an appointment with her Im getting a very high standard of piercing. I wouldnt ever recommend or go to anyone else for any peircing. Yall are amazing!
These guys are completely amazing. Not only are you in a very comfortable environment but you’re made to feel welcome every minute. I’ve had six piercings done with Kelly and I couldn’t recommend anyone else. She stands by her work and will make time for you if you’re ever in need. I won’t go anywhere else for my piercings, worth every penny.
Kelly is awesome! I had so much anxiety about piercing my nose but she made the experience so much better! She was professional and very knowledgeable. Very clean shop! Would highly recommend!
Kelly is one of my all time favorite people! Genuine, kind, gentle, and an excellent piercer! 11/10 would recommend and I cant wait to get pierced at this beautiful, clean shop again.
I got my helix pierced today and could not be happier with my experience. Kelly and the gentleman at the front desk were both so helpful and kind. You cannot go wrong when you choose Monarch for your piercing needs!
Oh my lawd! I cant say enough positive about my experience! Rhett at the front greeted me and immediately made me feel comfortable. He answered all questions I had and walked me through Monarchs piercing process. I met with Kelly and discussed my anxiety and worries, but I ultimately decided I wanted me daith piercing & I wanted Kelly to do it. I scheduled to come back the very same day. When I came back my nerves were going, but again Kelly calmed me and walked me through every step of the way. She never once let me see the piercing needle, nor did she surprise me at all. I cant thank her and Rhett enough for how amazing my experience was. GO TO MONARCH! THEY ROCK!
After reading tons of reviews on multiple piercing studios, I finally picked Monarch. I went in to get my nipples pierced, and was a little disappointed when I found out only men were working that day. I planned to pick out some jewelry and come back another day, but the staff was so welcoming that I decided to go ahead and get pierced. My piercer had such a great bedside manner that I was never uncomfortable throughout the entire process. I can’t even say that for some of my simple piercings from other shops!! Monarch is simply the best and is the only place I plan to go to for my piercings. I couldn’t be happier with the service I’ve received from them.
Monarch Body Piercing is the pillar of excellent professional piercings and fine jewelry for Customers in Chattanooga, and surrounding areas / states. You won’t find another store in the greater chatt area with the selection of implant grade and solid gold jewelry, nor the level of knowledge and expertise that Kelly provides. I’d recommend anyone near and far to visit Kelly so she can show what makes her business so special.
My wife and I got to visit Monarch during a recent trip through Tennessee. We had known about the shop and were eager to check it out. Kelly and her staff did not disappoint. The shop was clean, the staff was super friendly and their jewelry is simply amazing. Highly recommend!
I went to Monarch Body Piercing to get my septum pierced and afterwards to get my jewelry switched out. Both times I visited my experiences were great. The shop itself is beautiful with interesting decor and tons of jewelry to choose from. The staff are the best asset of the business in my opinion. Theyre friendly, personable, and make sure you are comfortable. :) I wouldnt recommend going anywhere else for a piercing but here!
Nasal Piercing.From the moment I walked in until I checked out, it was a top notch experience. The priority of cleanliness and making sure I was well informed regarding jewelry size, pre, and post piercing instructions was made.During the piercing process itself, Kelly did an amazing job with the procedure and the placement was perfect.I highly recommend Monarch Body Piercing.
Kelly was so patient and kind! She helped me pick out jewelry, pierced my nostril (with barely any pain), put a ring in my cartiledge all while explaining the process in detail. Every step was sterile. She is a true professional and I will go there for all of my piercings from now on! Thanks, Kelly!
I had my first piercings done here over the memorial day weekend and the experience was great on all accounts from the helpfulness of Kelly and Rhett to the very clean environment. I was also happy to see that this space is very LGBTQ+ friendly.
I went here for the first time & I felt so comfortable for my first visit! Kelly is so nice & inviting. She done a great job at piercing my ear & I love it! The prices are well worth the outcome forsure!
I had a great experience here! Kelly does amazing work and takes her time to talk you through the process and answer questions. The shop is beautiful and spotlessly clean. Their jewelry selection is gorgeous.
Monarch piercing is super clean and very professional!! I had a daith piercing today. I panicked and scream like a total maniac. Ryan did a great job calming me down and my piercing is fantastic! My sister took her piercing like a champ! Not a peep from her and now I feel like the biggest WIMP!! Thanks, Ryan for being so gracious!!! 💙
I typically am not one to leave reviews, but I have to say that I was impressed with the whole experience at Monarch. I had searched for a piercing only shop and found Monarch and am very glad I did. Kelly (the owner) was very helpful. Shes willing to answer any and all questions and walks you through the whole process....never felt rushed. Clean environment...couldnt have asked for a better experience. Thank you!
Love this place. Very professional, great jewelry selection, and impeccable cleanliness. Kelly and her staff provide knowledgeable and positive service throughout the entire process. Wouldnt go anywhere else for piercings!
Went in for a free check up today for my septum - it is always such a positive experience coming here! Rhett and Kelly are both such delightful people, and so knowledgeable. I always walk out with a smile on my face.
The absolute best jewelry and piercing shop in town! Great service great quality. Have yet to be disappointed 😁
Am extremly happy with the service i got. As soon as i walked in was welcomed and they helped me. Everything was super clean and sterile. Kelly was amazing watched her put everything into the autoclave to be sterile and then she opened it only after she put sterile gloves on. Im so happy with it. I will be back for any future pericings.
I noticed their shop as I was going to another business nearby. I thought how cool, a shop just for piercings! Had to check it out. Beautiful selection of high quality jewelry. Richard was very knowledgeable & helpful. I ended up replacing an inexpensive nose ring with one of theirs, a white gold clear stone stud. What a difference! You can definitely tell the difference in quality. Now I am thinking of a couple more piercings I need to replace. I will be back!
Upon entering the establishment I was completely in awe of the decor and set up of the jewelry. The place is absolutely stunning to look at and easy to browse. Everything was clean and tidy, she even has a fridge stocked with juice and snacks for those who get woozy or light headed after piercings.Kelly was so incredibly helpful with choosing and helping me decide what to do. I originally went in for a labret (settling) and with some convincing to do what I actually wanted to do we decided for the vertical labret. She helped me with jewelry selection for the most discreet option due to my job, and altered the metal to be a closer color to skin. She was incredibly patient with me and let me tell you, I am frustratingly indecisive.The piercing process was very quick, clean, and as painless as a needle through your lip could be. Swelling was incredibly minimal and zero swelling and pain the next day. I cant say this experience will be the same for everyone but she absolutely knows what she is doing and Id recommend her to anyone who wants to get a piercing.
Kelly was increadibly sweet and informative! This is one of the best experiences I have ever had getting pierced. They are very knowledgeable and have a great selection of high quality jewelry.
What a fantastic experience! I had two different piercings done and Kelly made me feel comfortable the entire time. Great selection of jewelry and worth every penny. Thanks so much!
This is the best piercing shop I’ve ever been to. Kelly is an angel!!! It is pricey but so worth it for the quality of jewelry you get. I got my nipples pierced and I had an amazing experience. Thank you so so much!!
Very friendly and professional. The jewelry is a bit pricey but you pay for quality. Their equipment is strictly single use, down to the marker they use on your skin. If you want your childs ears pierced by someone other than a teenager in the mall but youre uncomfortable with a tattoo studio, this place is perfect. I dont think ill ever go anywhere else for my piercings.
Kelly is AMAZING. Ive had 3 piercings with Monarch now and I refuse to go anywhere else. Everyone there is so great and they will make you feel like family.
I recently got my anti-tragus pierced here and the experience was amazing, very professional and by far the best piercing experience I’ve ever had. Staff was so kind and helpful and worked with me on deciding exactly what piercing I wanted (I had picked out jewelry i was in LOVE with and then decided here to put it)On top of this, I ran into an issue with my jewelry from bumping my piercing during a workout, and when I called for help/advice they were more helpful than I could have hoped for. I currently live in Florida so I couldn’t come back in to get it fixed and they called my local shop for me to talk to them about what I needed and about my jewelry to make sure my piercing is able to heal well. Officially my favorite shop.
Beautiful and clean shop, and Kelly is a fantastic piercer, so sweet and professional. Will definitely be going back for all future piercings.
Every person I’ve interacted with in this shop is just great. Very kind and helpful. I wish I’d gotten my piercing done here but I’ll def schedule with them for my next ones!
Kelly did an amazing job last night and I will continue to come to her for all of my piercing needs! She has the cleanest shop I have ever been in. You couldnt find a better atmosphere to be in. Love her work!!
I’m so glad we came here! My daughter’s ear piercing from the mall got messed up a bit, so we came by Monarch to see if they could help. They were the nicest people, saw us quickly, and helped clean my daughters piercing quickly and with minimal pain. We’ll come here soon for her new jewelry and any future piercings!
This was my first time here and it was the best experience! They were so well informed, so kind, and very helpful. This was my first facial piercing so I was a little nervous, but they talk you through the whole process and made it so easy. Love them!
This is one of the best places to go to get any piercing done. They are knowledgeable and amazing people! Will answer 50 million questions if you want. Rhett and the new girl are so amazingly enthusiast and just awesome! Highly recommend to anyone!
Excellent customer service! I spent a long time looking online for good piercing shops around the Chattanooga area. Monarch Body Piercings was one of the first results. They had a beautiful website which contained all of their information and Prices (something you apparently dont find very often) and they seemed super nice. I continued to look around for other shops just in case, but nothing I found even came close to comparing with Monarch.Monarch Body Piercings was exceptionally clean and neat, and their APA certification was like the cherry on the top. They have a large variety of beautiful jewelry on display for you to look at if the piercer is talking to someone else at the moment. My friend and I went for a consult about her (possibly infected) recent ear piercings and even though they were done by another Shop, the guy at Monarch took great interest in examining her ears and explaining how to take care of them and avoid infection.This is definately the best piercing Shop I have ever been to and I will forever rave about Monarch Body Piercings to my friends and fellow Yelpers. I cannot wait to come back and get my navel pierced at this location, having peace of mind that I chose the best place.
I cant say enough good things about Monarch. They are the only place I want to go for a piercing. They are extremely clean, nice and helpful. If you have questions or dont know about piercings they arent condescending at all, and answer all questions with professionalism. I will definitely be back!
Ive been waiting since March to see Kelly, and I dont regret it at all. The entire experience was amazing. The atmosphere is absolutely perfect for what youd want in a piercing shop. I can not recommend this place enough.
Kelly was super nice and informative. Very comfortable experience! Rhett was so sweet and helpful with picking out the perfect piece of jewelry for me! Definitely returning for future piercings! Thanks, Monarch! 💙💛
Clean, comfortable and amazing staff. Kellie did excellent work. I wouldnt want to go anywhere else for my piercing.
I have called several shops with questions/concerns about my nipple piercings and most shops seemed to not care/seemed bothered by me even calling. When I called Monarch there was no answer and I decided not to leave a voicemail, that did not stop them. I was called back within 5 minutes and spoke with a woman who made it very clear that my concerns were not silly, and that if I needed help changing the piercings they would be more than happy to assist me in shop. I havent even walked in the store yet, but I am already blown away by the customer service that I have received. Very exited to go in today.
Clean, professional, kind, great vibes. Seriously, if youre looking for a quality piercing with great jewelry options and super kind people- this is the perfect place for you! Its the best shop Ive ever been in and my piercing is perfect!
Ok, so let me preface this by saying I have never had any piercing whatsoever. I knew nothing about the different types jewelry you could put in said piercing. I really wanted to get my ears pierced and possibly stretch in the future. I was able to call in an appointment and walk in and have a good discussion about my options, I decided to get a 10 gauge and just your average 14 gauge on each ear. Kelly was EXTREMELY professional, she has really worked hard to create an atmosphere where YOU feel comfortable getting your piercing. She knows what she is doing too, she shows you all the steps she is taking to sanitize her equipment as well as share her passion for what she does with all of the cool little details. She also took the time to make sure I didnt see any needles whatsoever, that doesnt really bother me, but for those that it does, they have you covered. This is the place to get your piercings, if you want a low pressure, positive atmosphere, with someone who REALLY pays attention to detail and will go above and beyond to make sure you are happy, and not cut ANY corners whatsoever, this is the place for you! If you dont believe me just walk in the door or check out their website, and they will make it clear how friendly and professional they are. Not to mention they have a perfect score with health and sanitation posted right by the front desk. Seriously you cant beat them, I wouldnt trust anyone else for piercings, Monarch is the place to go.
I researched for 2 years to find a safe place to bring my 10 year old to get her ears pierced. I didnt want to expose her to a tattoo parlor and the guns at the mall kiosk cant be completely sterilized. This place is amazing!Why:➡️Everything is super sterilized and the tools used are never used twice. They even use an enclave to sterilize the jewelry.➡️The jewelry is ASTM f136 implant grade titanium. The stuff the use to fix bones and stuff. Its expensive but way worth it.➡️Staff was super professional, patient (my daughter is 10) and tender. They spend more time making sure the holes are where you want them (we moved our marked area 3 times). Then she spent 15 minutes making sure my daughter knew how to take care of them.➡️ Follow up - they want us to come back in 6 weeks for a free follow up to make sure everything healed correctly.➡️Its not a tattoo parlor - not that there is anything wrong with a tattoo parlor. I really wasnt ready to expose my kids to that yet!I would highly recommend them to any parent or adult wanting a professionally done piercing.Update 8/2018:A year later, and I decided to get my nose pierced. I truly believe that the people their are the absolute best at want they do and are so professional. Sterilized everything and walked me through my being scared of needless. I recommend them to everyone.
I was absolutely terrified to get my nose pierced and not sure exactly what I wanted. I walked in an immediately felt relaxed. The inside was so cute and stylish. They helped me pick out the the perfect jewelry for my taste and Kelly walked me threw the whole thing. 10/10
Got my septum done, and had a wonderful experience; I adore the result, and felt extremely comfortable the entire time! She was insanely sweet, I definitely plan on being back for more.
Employees are super nice and knowledgeable!! There is a wide variety of jewelry and at first I thought it was more than I could afford, however it is all gold or titanium and has a life time guarantee. I have definitely found my new piercing shop!!!
Exceptional! I absolutely love my new piercing. Kelly did an amazing job. Over the top professional service. I would recommend to anyone in the market for a new piercing.
The service at Monarch Body Piercing is top notch. The staff were professional, kind, & very helpful. A very clean an safe environment. I was tremendously happy with my service. Money well spent!
Dont go here. I went to get nipple piercings and thought I was getting the highest quality. Said the piercings were titanium and hang made. Thats why I was paying 80$ just the the jewelry and 65 for the piercing. She said I should not get any reaction because of what there made out of and said I need a 10 Guage because of the size of my nipples. I took care of them like she said and 13 months later there still not healed and hurt all the time. Went to freedom tattoo and had them look at it and they told me there not titanium there stainless steal. Asked me if I was alergic to nickel which I am. Stainless steal has nickel in it. The jewelry was changing colors and went the freedom tattoo piercer look at it the inside of the piercing turned green and said if I had them Im for much longer it would of broke off and stayed in the nipple. And the Guage was way to big.Basically monarch lied about everything to make money. Didnt care about the customer.
I went to get my inner conch pierced and loved my experience there! Kelly was extremely kind and helpful, talked me through the whole process and was just simply amazing! Highly recommend it!
I have never had a nicer piercing experience! My sister and I were made to be so comfortable & everyone was so warm and friendly. Absolutely sweet and lovely people! xxx
Very professional and clean. Ive had 3 dermals and my nipples done here and they all healed perfectly.
Best place for such amazing body jewlery! The owner is so humble and easy to talk to! I have never had such amazing customer service especially with selection! The owner will love to show you how anodizing works as well so make sure to ask! Best place in TN for body jewlwje needs, starters, and pros!
Way overpriced. A $40 service fee on top of the price of the ring, which is minimum another $40 per ring. Very clean and well maintained shop, but no other shop Ive ever heard of would charge a separate service fee - that typically goes towards the price of the ring, which also usually comes in a set and not as an individual ring. Will not get another piercing here.
Even though my visit was brief, the employees that were there were incredibly kind and helpful, as well as the professionalism that was shown while I was helped was very comforting. The shop itself was very clean and beautiful. They have such a large collection of beautiful jewelry, I think the only problem would be choosing which one you want!
Professional, friendly staff. Immaculately clean with jewelry that was beautiful to wear immediately after piercing and affordable. Best piercing experience by far. Will never go anywhere else!
Very helpful associate in make a decision on a body piercing. They were so nice and very clean. I have never felt so comfortable speaking to someone about body piercing. Friendly staff and very unknowable .
I wish I could give 10 stars. They were so friendly and professional, and Kelly did a wonderful job. Im very happy with my piercings and will definitely be coming back for more.
This shop is incredible! It’s emmaculate and so clean, the jewelry selection is awesome and there’s a unique piece for everyone, and the staff is very knowledgeable and welcoming. I recommend this shop to all my friends. Shout out to Kelly for being so passionate and accommodating. 🖤
Got my 8 year old daughters ears pierced here and she was worried and scared about the pain but they were so amazing, comforting, took the time she needed, talked her through everything and she had a great experience! Very clean, polite and professional!
The BEST piercing experience. The owner is genuine and kind and offers precision piercing work with beautiful jewelry to match. Looking forward to my next visit.
Kelly is a true artist! I brought in a pair of tiny ear tunnels that were too long to fit curved earrings through. She somehow, with magic maybe, cut them to a perfect size. Thank you!
