Great at piercing, yes. Great space, yes. Professional and Sterile, yes. Beautiful jewelry selection, yes. BUT what sets this place above and beyond is who Kevin is. He is kind and compassionate and just had a really amazing energy to him. I am sure he could put anyone at ease. Its obvious that he really knows what he is doing and is passionate about giving each person a tailored and customized experience to get exactly what they are looking for. Going to see him was such a fun and pleasant experience and it truly brightened my day. Always a treat when you get to see someone in their element doing what they love and are so good at.

The whole shop has a great vibe the second you walk in. Kevin is super knowledgeable and attentive and takes his time to ensure you will be super happy with the outcome.

Hes experienced and quick Ill definitely come back for future piercings and refer anyone whos looking to get pierced to him.He changes the game when it comes to piercings having a welcoming and comforting feeling in his studio.
I first came to Kevin in 2021 when I got back to the valley and needed to remove a piercing that was driving me nuts (daith). He was super nice and understanding, the appointment went by quick. Fast forward to now (2024); when I decided to re-pierce my daith and third lobes and:I had such an amazing experience, Kevin has got this fun, personable vibe that instantly puts you at ease. His studio is spotless, safety and hygiene are clearly his top priorities, which is always reassuring. When it came to choosing jewelry, he was super patient and enthusiastic, pulling out different options until I found the perfect pieces.And his collection?! Nothing but quality—I could see the craftsmanship in every piece he showed me. He patiently went through several options with me, holding them up to the mirror until I was totally satisfied with my picks. Its obvious hes passionate about what he does and I really appreciate that he doesn’t rush through appointments; he really wants you to feel comfortable and informed on taking care of your new piercings.My piercings are healing beautifully, and I’m excited to continue curating my ears with him. 🤗 If you want a piercer whos not only skilled but also makes the whole process fun and stress-free, look no further~
Kevin is the best!! I had the pleasure of going to wholehearted today to get a downsize on a piercing done somewhere else. A friend recommended wholehearted to me so I had to check it out!! Amazing atmosphere, very clean and professional. Kevin is such a sweet person who truly cares about you and your piercing!! Don’t hesitate to stop by!
I couldn’t help but feel like I need to give an outstanding review for Kevin. I couldn’t recommend him more. I found him online and all the positive reviews encouraged me to make an appointment. This was the first piercing I’ve had that wasn’t done makeshift when I was a teenager so, needless to say, I was very anxious. Kevin made me feel 1000% comfortable and made this experience very pleasant. If you want a piercing but have any hesitations, make an appointment with Kevin. You won’t regret it. All the positive reviews are accurate.
Kevin is amazing! I was nervous to get back into a shop to get a piercing after over a decade of not having work done. There are no tattoo machines buzzing, no loud music, and the place is yours. Kevin made sure I was relaxed and comfortable and created a great environment for my piercing experience. All of my questions (and more) were answered and I received an aftercare booklet that included the piercing information. Talking with Kevin felt like talking to an old friend I hadnt seen in years. Very happy with my experience and will be returning when Im ready for more work.
Kevin is THE BEST. So glad he has his own studio. The studio itself is absolutely gorgeous, you have a large variety of jewelry to pick from. After getting an earlobe reconstruction, I was scared id never be able to stretch my ear again, let alone pierce it, but Kevin took his time and marked out a great place for my piercing, and its healing FANTASTIC. He was very kind hearted, and it was an amazing experience. So glad I got to see him! Will be going there for all my piercing needs!
20/10 Recommend @wholeheartedpiercing!!! Hes so thorough in the consultation, keeps everything light & relaxing, & has gorgeous jewelry options! He did the third lobe piercing on both sides & it looks even!
5 stars isnt enough! Kevin vibe, energy, overall presence is everything you need in a person. He takes pride in his work and pays attention to detail. Ensures you are comfortable, working with him your mind and body doesnt even allow you to be stressed because he has eased all that for you. I couldnt of asked for a better piercing experience! Kevin is an entire VIBE!! Best piercer in AZ
I cant even put into words how spectacular Kevin is.. Every experience is handled with the utmost care, cleanliness, and you dont even remember youre getting pierced because its always SO MUCH FUN WITH KEVIN! Space is always so clean & serene, I could go on for days about how special this space is. Thank you so much for making all of my piercing dreams come to life, and if you ever need a BOMB piercer, hit up Kevin!!!!
I have never left a review on anything in my life but Kevin gives you literally the best piercing experience you could possibly ask for. Hes cultivated such a beautiful safe space in his studio. I tell anyone whos thinking about getting pierced to come to him. Im so glad I happened across his website.
I absolutely adore Kevin! After scouring the reviews of several top-rated shops in the Valley, I ultimately chose (W)holehearted, even though its far from my home; I couldnt be happier that I did! I first came in for a daith, my first cartilage piercing, and have been back many times since. Every time is a wonderful experience! The shop is a relaxing reprieve from the chaos of the city, and Kevin makes a point of keeping everything sparklingly clean and sanitary. He washes his hands properly and thoroughly, dons fresh gloves before touching any freshly-sterilized jewelry and single-use tools, and sanitizes the entire work space between clients. He is personable and does everything he can to make you feel comfortable and respected throughout the experience. He keeps a lovely stock of gorgeous jewelry, but will also special-order from quality manufacturers if he doesnt have exactly what you want available. I will keep coming back for as long as it takes to complete (or run out of space on) curated ears! I cant say enough positive things about this place; if youre undecided about which shop to go to for your next piercing, take this as your sign to come here!
Kevin is amazing and I wanted to take the time to acknowledge him! He has amazing bedside manner! He makes sure you see the needle has been cleaned and is sterilized, he does your piercing correctly the first time unlike other places so you won’t have any issues. His prices are pocket friendly and his studio is neat and clean and inviting just like him. I Love Kevin Wholeheartedly! I’ll be a forever customer and you should you too!
I was referred to Kevin from Marilyn at HTC when looking for a custom 8g turqouise septum. Booking appointments online at his studio is extremely convenient! His selection of jewelry is more than I had seen before, custom pieces from Mexico to BVLA customs, theres always something new to swoon over. His studio is immaculate and adorned with beautiful art work and furniture.Kevin provides quality education, recommendations, and orientation of new piercings and jewelry.He is so welcoming and kind!I can say I made a new friend at whole hearted and I recommend him to colleagues, family, and friends.
Kevin has been piercing me for almost a decade (hes been piercing for almost 30 years) and its so cool to see him on his own! You can expect the highest quality of jewelry and know that your vision will come to life. So happy with my double nostril set I got on my bday.
Kevin was so helpful and helped me to relax as Ive had my nose pierced twice before but always had an issue. He gave me information that I was not given before so I am confident that the third time will be a charm! The atmosphere is very welcoming and he is extremely attentive to you. He truly is sunshine on a cloudy day!!! Will definitely return!Update: the third time was a charm! Didnt have any keloid issues at all. Ive been back to Kevin twice since the initial piercing. Hes just amazeballs and makes everyone feel welcomed and special!!! Truly a rare gem these days!
Kevin is an extremely amazing piercer and human being! He is so helpful and makes the experience wonderful. He is also a master of his craft and always has a great idea or helpful tip. His studio is a exceptionally clean and well stocked with beautiful jewelry. Can’t recommend him enough.
When looking for a place to get my next piercing at, Wholehearted stuck out the most because of all the amazing reviews that Kevin received. Going into my appointment I was so pleased with Kevin’s knowledge and professional opinion when it came to making sure my piercings would heal the proper way in the long run. Also loved how personable he is and I will continue to be back for further piercings with him! (Side note: loved all the jewelry that he had to chose from as well)
Kevin is awesome. I had a great piercing experience. He had given me information that was never given to me before. He explains everything in detail and gave me reassurances, made me feel comfortable. He loves what he do and he does it so well. I was so happy to have chosen this place to have my piercing done. I will be coming back for all my future piercings.
Booked an appointment to have both my nipples pierced and I was extremely nervous about the process and the hygiene of the piercing.Kevin reassured everything was done right and in the upmost hygienic way out there. He was very informative on the process and patient with me through the whole way. He checked on me to make sure I was okay as we progressed with the piercings. Overall a very caring and knowledgable person to work with.Great selection of jewelry to choose from and a very welcoming studio! Reasonable pricing that got me to select him from the get go!Kevin knows what hes doing and I strongly recommend him for all your piercing needs!
I just got a piercing done by Kevin and he is awesome! Very nice, knowledgeable and he talks you through everything before he even does it. His variety of jewelry is stellar! Will definitely recommend and be back. Thanks Kevin :)
Kevin has done most of my facial and body piercings for the last 10 years! I don’t trust anybody else - even for jewelry ordering or changing out gems. He’s one of the best people I know and I refer all of my clients to him + Wholehearted.
Kevin is one of the most kind and honest and respectful, he is an abouslute king of a human, my first time ever getting a piercing and it went so smoothly, he made me feel like like a king. I got a double helix and he ask about 4 times if I liked the placement before going through with the piercing. Thank you Kevin and if I were to recommend to anyone getting piercings here, go for it, you are paying for quality and hospitality and it is so worth it
Kevin is hands down the most amazing piercer, professional, and such a bright and kind person. The entire appointment was extremely informative and made me feel at ease. Kevin is so so knowledgable and makes sure to tell you everything he is doing, explaining the entire process, and has you be an active part of the process unlike most piercers that just want to get you out of there as fast as possible. He is without a doubt the best piercer I have ever been lucky enough to be pierced by. If you truly care about receiving the best piercing and care you can, the Wholehearted studio is the place to go.
Kevin is incredible. He’s kind, funny, professional, and detail-oriented. I had the best experience. Highly recommend!
I was a bit nervous about my piercing initially but Kevin very quickly calmed my nerves with his friendly and welcoming composure and very informative explanations. He guided me through the few decisions to reach the desired piercing and his bedside manner was so professional but very relaxing. I plan to go to Kevin for any of my future piercings and highly recommend him to anyone.
Kevin is absolutely amazing!! I have nothing but quality things to say about his services and his constant efforts to ensure you are comfortable. He always wants to be there for his customers and his hard work shows, every time!! Hands down, the most genuine person and piecer I’ve ever met. I will never go anywhere else to get my piercings!!
Ive been going to Kevin for almost two years for any piercing needs and have recommended all my friends and family to go here. Not only is he delightful to work with, he is extremely diligent in piercing placement and care. He is always honest about limitations and expectations.
I’ve had three piercings done by Kevin - two a few years ago when I still lived in the valley and another recently that I specifically drove down to Phoenix for because I wanted to have my septum done by him. Kevin is kind and warm, and makes the whole experience a great one. He talks you through every step of the process so that you’re following along and know what to expect, and is so informative while still being so much fun to talk to and hang out with! On top of being a super cool dude who’s extremely talented at his craft, the studio is gorgeous and the jewelry selection is unmatched. Highly, highly recommend getting any work done at wholehearted. I promise you’ll walk out of there feeling amazing!
Kevin is awesome!!! He is so kind, comforting and knowledgeable. I was really nervous about getting my tongue pierced but the shop is so clean, comforting and all around a great vibe. Kevin truly cares about the health and safety of his clients and I will never go anywhere other than WholeHearted for a piercing ever again! Thank you Kevin!
I came to Kevin because an older piercing of mine was bothering me (not pierced here) and scheduled an appointment to have a conversation about it. I’m glad I did. He listed to all of my concerns - was very knowledgeable and recommended next steps for healing.The shop is beautiful and has high quality jewelry. Would absolutely recommend.
Kevin EXCEEDED my expectations!!!! If I could give him 50 stars, I would! My sister bought me a gift card for Wholehearted Body Piercing after doing some extensive research on local piercing shops, and I’m so glad she did because my entire experience was beyond incredible. I was a bit nervous due to my fear of needles, but Kevin completely eased my concerns immediately. The shop is beautiful, organized, and inviting. Such an incredible first impression! Kevin made both me and my sister feel so welcome, he was the perfect balance between friendly and professional. It is exceedingly clear that Kevin is an expert in his craft; he was patient, thorough, and answered all of our questions. I’ve never had an experience that encompassed everything I could hope for in customer service like this one! I will most definitely be back and intend to highly recommend Kevin whenever I get the chance! Couldn’t be happier!
Kevin is a highly skilled piercer and a nice guy. I had three piercings with him and the experience was awesome. I came in with a few pictures from Pinterest to give him an idea of what I was looking for and I didn’t need any of them because his recommendations were spot on. He was intentional about asking me what I wanted and I felt comfortable trusting his judgment. He was very thorough from start to finish explaining everything from jewelry, to placement and aftercare. I can’t even feel 2/3 of the piercings. It’s as if they’re already healed a day later and they all look fantastic. I’m so glad I booked with Kevin, he did not disappoint.
Kevin is by far the most passionate and personable piercer I’ve ever had my pleasure in knowing. I’ve known Kevin for some years now but have waited to make a review for his new spot until I had the opportunity to experience it myself. And what a treat I had today! Kevin is a master at his craft and genuinely cares about the work he produces. He sets aside a nice chunk of time just for you, and creates a safe space that is intimate and informative. I recommend him to everyone I know. You will not be disappointed!
I visited Kevin Jump as a referral from Elayne Angel and I an so thankful I did. Kevin is an artist who is fully confident and highly knowledgeable in his craft.I visited him due to having an incorrectly placed piercing, and after evaluating, and explaining, he was able to pierce me correctly. He made sure I was fully informed as he explained and comfortable with each step.the place he created is so clean and warm that its easy to get lost in socializing than just focusing on getting pierced.
Kevin was so kind and helpful. He was the only person out of three to respond to a question I sent about fixing a crooked piercing. He was endlessly patient, kind, and knowledgeable. Extremely pleased! You wont be disappointed.
I had my first ever professional piercing appointment with Kevin back in March; hes absolutely wonderful! Kevin is very gracious, kind, personable and intentional. He talked me through every step of the process even the aftercare and made sure I was happy with the placement of my ear piercings. I was looking for someone who I knew I could be comfortable with and trust, I found exactly that. Ill always come here for any future piercings! ☺️
Kevin has created a comfortable and artistic environment that puts me at ease every time I go. He’s got a good range of prices and really seems to care about his customers. I’ve gotten several piercings from him and will absolutely continue to go to Kevin for future piercings!
Kevin is by far the best piercer (and one of the best people) Ive encountered. His shop is clean and welcoming, and Kevin himself is beyond respectful. Ive gotten six piercings from him now, and every time, he walks me exactly through every step of the piercing process and checks up on how Im feeling about it. One of the most down-to-earth and personable people youll ever meet, and somehow makes getting poked by a needle an enjoyable experience.
Kevin is an absolute gem! He was kind, knowledgeable, and comforting. I went in for body piercings and he made me feel so at ease! He offers a wide variety of beautiful and good quality jewelry. Both equipment and jewelry are sterilized before you get started. He takes his time to mark you and confirm exactly how you want your piercings positioned. The experience was lovely, didn’t feel rushed, while the piercings were painful, right after it was a breeze. He provides you with a pamphlet with specific instructions on after care. I could not have dreamt of a better experience, and honestly a review does not do him justice, go to Kevin for all of your piercing needs, he’s fantastic! 😊💓💓
Kevin, the owner and piercer, is ABSOLUTELY amazing! Incredibly professional, great spirit, and very caring. In fact, my former piercer recommended him - thats how good he is! When I think about piercings and/or any type of body modifications, I want to make sure that I can trust the person /artist doing the work. I felt that trust and care right when I walked into the shop (a beautiful space, by the way). I highly recommend this shop! I will definitely be back.
One billion stars for Kevin !!!I wanted piercings in a more intimate area and wanted to make sure to find an educated and professional person.I was uncomfortable with really young piercers and the social media allure of “hip” shops didn’t feel like the right fit for me.After months of searching, I was referred to Wholehearted and Kevin absolutely exceeded my expectations. He is a master at his craft and a beautiful human.I have been extremely happy with the outcome and healing of my piercings.Fast forward 6 months and I brought my teen daughter to Kevin for a facial piercing.He was beyond patient and kind with her. The experience was perfect. He educated her on the process as well as proper aftercare. He made her feel comfortable and safe. I noticed how mindful he was when asking for consent from her. That is HUGE!So much love ❤️
This shop always gives you the best experience. When walking in you automatically get good vibes and the environment is welcoming, friendly and makes you feel relaxed. Kevin is not only a great piercer but a genuinely amazing person. He makes you feel comfortable and talks to you the whole time. I’ve been to other piercing shops and Wholehearted is by far the best with flying colors. I appreciate how private and individual the appointments are, it makes you feel like you’re in a safe space. Overall a very clean, sanitary and fun experience. Don’t settle for any other shop, this place is where to go.
Looking for a piercing? This is definitely your spot. Local business, best service, informative, kind, and most of all PROFESSIONAL.He will explain the entirety of the process and give you after care handouts after each service no matter if it’s your first time or not. He’s been doing piercings for years and will absolutely make sure you are comfortable the entire appointment.Kevin is the only piercer I ever go to, and so far I have gotten:-Earlobe seconds-Septum-NavalI will continue to support him and his business in any way I can! He has plenty of photos of his work on his social media accounts for anyone who would like a sneak peak!!
Every visit to Wholehearted and Kevin is always amazing! Last summer I found his shop when looking to get my nostril and helix pierced, and I’m so glad I did. Shortly after that initial visit I found myself coming back for more and have since gotten many more piercings from Kevin. I even brought my best friend and mother to get piercings from him!Any time someone brings up piercings or asks for shop recommendations I never shut up about how great Kevin is! The environment and overall experience each and every time I visit is wonderful. The shop is so pretty and feels good to be in. Everything is always clean and I especially love the fact he uses an autoclave right in front of me to sterilize the jewelry I chose before piercing me. From the moment I walk in I always feel comfortable and when I leave I’m always happy with the service, piercing(s), and jewelry!Honestly Kevin is the only person I’ll ever get piercings and jewelry for them all from!
I’ve been wanting my nipples pierced for so long but have been so nervous that I have never made an appointment. Heard about how amazing and calming Kevin is. Once I stepped in the shop all my anxiety was just gone. He is so knowledgeable and patient, very personal. I barley felt a thing. I will recommend him until I’m blue in the face. Absolutely great experience.
Ive been seeing Kevin for my piercing needs for over a decade and Im so thrilled he has his own shop now! His attention to detail, care for your body, and knowledge makes the piercing experience safe and expansive. Kevin is the only person I trust with my piercings. I cant recommend him enough for people of any age seeking any type of body art. Kevin is the best!
My experience with Kevin was amazing! This was my first piercing and was super nervous. He took his time showing me different jewelry (which by the way they are absolutely amazing and beautiful). He is super friendly, patient and funny! Love my new nose piercing and considering getting more! I’m recommending all my friends to him.
I cant recommend Kevin enough! I dont even know where to start and how to convey how much of an amazing piercer and human being he is, but here is my try at it. I have been going to him for the past 4/5 years. The care and passion that he puts into his craft can be felt in very little thing he does, such an example is that when you go, you must ask him about the creation of his studio. He really couldnt have picked a better name for it, with Kevin you get nothing less than quality.He has really listened to what I want and made sure it was safe. Throughout the healing process whatever question or concerns I had he would take care of them fully, no matter how trivial they were. Even long after your piercing heals he will continue treat you with the same care. I have had him help me create custom jewelry and have sent all my friends to him.I have been to other piercers, ones in different countries even, and Kevin is just in a class of his own. I will be going to him and no one else for as long has he will have me in his care!His studio is upstanding, especially during Covid I had still felt incredibility safe inside. He is by appointment and only sees one person at a time, masks and gloves are worn and everything is sanitized before and after you leave.
I cannot possibly say enough positive things about Kevin and Wholehearted. Legitimately one of the nicest humans I’ve met in my life, the shop is beautiful and serves to highlight the ritualistic aspect of getting pierced. Excellent jewelry selection, as well. Kevin offered very thorough care instructions and ensured the nostril piercing was in an optimal position before he got started, not rushing through the process at all. Just an amazing experience all around. Very cool, genuine guy, great shop vibes, look no further if you’re looking for any kind of piercing or jewelry!
This is now the only person I ever want to do my piercings!! Kevin has created an AMAZING space, and the ability to have a better piercing than ever before. I have worked with other piercers in the past, and no one else even comes close to the quality of service and excellence of experience and expertise you will get here! Wide range of gorgeous jewelry for all price ranges, and good human interaction that is good for the soul! You will NOT be dissapointed here! Above and beyond!
Kevin is one of the kindest, most passionate piercer that Ive ever met. His venture into having his own studio is inspiring. The shop is spotless, the jewelry is top of the line and the whole place gives off a welcoming feel with so much character. He goes out of his way to make your experience pleasant and really makes a connection with all his clients. I will continue to go to him for my piercing and jewelry needs and cant give enough praise to him and his business!
Kevin is so kind and genuine. My piercing experience was absolutely lovely. He really listens and connects with you and makes sure youre comfortable and that hes doing exactly what you want and need. Would highly recommend getting pierced by him. Extremely professional yet incredibly relatable. Thank you so much Kevin!!!
I will be back! Such an unique and incredible piercing experience. Kevin was absolutely a pleasure to be around and to experience his talent. He was upfront about pricing and was also conversational other piercings and techniques used. His studio was more like a vintage home and made you feel so good about being there!
Kevin was amazing! I heard about whole hearted from a friend. He explained everything very well, I felt comfortable and taken care of. The facility was clean, and the vibe was amazing. I would highly recommend and will be going back for future piercings. Thank you kevin!
I went to get pierced on Friday and Kevin was absolutely wonderful the entire time! he was super patient with me, friendly and welcoming, I felt safe and reassured. The space is super clean and you can tell Kevin knows what he is doing. I was so happy with my experience that I want to go back again already to get another piercing!
Kevin is amazing! Very experienced, friendly, and down to earth. Visits are by appointment and you seriously feel like you are visiting a friend every time. I had my second lobe piercings and 3 helix piercings done and I will definitely go back for any other piercings I may want in the future.
Kevin Jump is a really nice guy and dose an amazing job. Went with my girlfriend who has been a customer of Kevins for years. He knows his art well and he provides a great relaxed environment. Appointments only which really helps cut down wait time and the jewelry he provides is amazing and he is able to get anything you need in a timely manner. Highly recommend for any peircing from first time to returning customers.
It is truly such an honor to work with someone who has so finely tuned their craft and is simultaneously so kind and genuine.God knows you want to be comfortable before a piercing and Kevin takes it to the next level. My friends, THIS is your piercer. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!
Kevin was amazing! He is so nice and friendly, and is very talented at piercing. I had 3 piercings done on one ear with very little discomfort, and all piercings were done well. I will only go to him for my future piercings!
Awesome experience! Kevin is amazing, he makes you feel so comfortable.I got a septum piercing and it was so quick and barely any pain at all. He also carries a beautiful selection of jewelry. I will definitely be back!
Kevin has the best energy and I will forever suggest him to people and go to him for piercings! He knows exactly what he is doing and knows how to make you feel so comfortable in a situation where most people are nervous. The space is beautiful and clean. Nothing but good words about Kevin, he is amazing!
Going in to see Kevin, you’re instantly treated like a friend, not a client. He is so knowledgeable and after one visit, I will only go to him for piercings from now on.He genuinely cares about the people he pierces and prioritizes them first and the piercing second.This was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had for any service. Thank you so much, Kevin!
Kevin is awesome. He is super friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and funny. He makes you feel like a friend all while still being extremely professional. He also pays homage to indigenous cultures, the originators of piercings, with the gorgeous art he keeps in his studio, which means a lot to me as a latina. The jewelry he has in his studio are all high quality, so the piercings as well as the jewelry are well worth the money. Now THIS is what piercing shops should aspire to be. Definitely come here for a great and friendly experience, quality jewelry, and someone who knows what theyre doing.
Got my septum done today and wow I love it! Kevin was very kind and considerate. He helped ease my anxiety because I was really nervous and helped answer any questions that I had. The piercing was truly painless and I will definitely be coming back for any future piercing! Very professional and clean! Seriously one of the cleanest shops I’ve seen.
Kevin is truly an amazing person! He makes you feel safe and is reassuring throughout the process. Extremely professional and very friendly at the same time. I felt so comfortable and confident. Thank you for loving what you do, it really shows!
Literally the best experience ever. I drove 30 minutes just to see the owner Kevin and he’s amazing. His shop is beautiful and his jewelry is top notch/high quality. He is so sweet and amazing. Thank you! Come here you won’t regret it. I got a septum piercing and belly button piercing and the work is beautiful and I left there with no pain and I’m healing beautifully.
Kevin was incredible. I went in for a nose piercing and my two daughters got their ears done (they are 9 and 12). He was SO patient and fun and engaging with them. We were there for at least two hours and the environment was welcoming and comfortable and totally low pressure. He was up front and answered all our questions and was extremely patient with my youngest daughter who wanted her ears pierced but was afraid to have them done. I would 100% recommend him to anyone and if any piercings are in my future I will make the drive to Phoenix to see him. I can’t say enough good things about him and I LOVE that his studio is by appointment-it makes for such a personal experience and was wonderful.
I took my daughter here for her first ever piercing. Kevin made sure that it was an exceptional experience for both of us. He has a great heart and made it a painless experience (pun intended). Hes officially the only person I will ever go to for any piercing!
Kevin is amazing! He pierced my nose a few months ago and met with me *multiple times* afterwards to help with aftercare and healing the expected inflammation bump that sometimes happens when I get piercings. Today I’m bump-free and living my best life with my gorgeous nose piercing! Thank you, Kevin! I’m only going to Kevin from here on out… even if I move and have to travel to come back! :)
What can I start by saying! Kevin is an amazing guy with a huge heart!! As soon as I walked into his shop I felt super comfortable. Usually I get super uncomfortable and nervous but once I was inside his shop I knew that I could be my self and didn’t get that weird gut feeling I usually get when I go to a tattoo/piercing shops. We literally even talked for about an hour before I leven got my double nostril piercing. He was really was really descriptive on how to care for my new piercing. I would highly recommend you guys to check him out!! He also has beautiful jewelry!! Thanks Kevin!
I would never go anywhere else to get pierced! With a positive and relaxed atmosphere my nerves were calmed, and any questions I had were explained in a way I could understand. Kevin understands the anatomy of a person and how it should be decorated, he will not pierce you if it would look bad! He is very experienced and takes the most precautions using disinfectant and sterilized instruments. I felt very safe in his hands and will definitely come again!
Great service, extremely friendly and welcoming environment. We like the privacy as they only allow one the person/party with the reservation in the studio. Highly recommend.
Got my septum pierced here about 5 months ago and it was the best experience ever. I send all of my friends Kevin’s way for piercings. Everything is neat, clean, safe and there is a variety of jewelry to choose from. He makes you feel extremely comfortable and explains everything very very clearly!
The experience at Wholehearted Piercing is like no other. It truly is an experience. I appreciated the privacy as Kevin and I were the only ones in the studio. Talking to Kevin is like talking to an old friend. The studio is clean, easily accessible, and so cute. I’d recommend this studio to anyone looking for a quality piercing.
Kevin was freaking awesome. Very professional, clean, honest, personable, and super friendly. Will definitely return when I want new jewelry (great selection of high quality jewelry for any size and style) or another piercing. Thanks a ton!
Firstly, Kevin is an amazing piercer. He is so compassionate and gentle. He has lots of experience and is very knowledgeable. Secondly, he gives you a whole new experience. An experience that you didnt know you needed or wanted until you experience it. He doesnt rush you in and then rush you out. He takes his time, makes sure you are comfortable and then explains how to properly take care of it. I will highly recommend him and only go back to him. He is so welcoming it makes you feel like you are talking to a friend you have known for many years! Just awesome!
Such a great, beautiful, clean space! The owner is extremely welcoming and detailed. He took the time to explain everything to us and wasn’t rushed. Such a breath of fresh air!! He did an excellent job and I’m sure we’ll be back! Thank you!!!!
For a first time experience, working with Kevin was absolutely wonderful. He took the time to explain what he was doing and why. He made sure I was comfortable and knew what to expect. I would highly recommend him to anyone, especially if it is their first time. He made the whole experience so enjoyable I will absolutely be going back.
Kevin is out of this world amazing. His genuine interest in his clients and welcoming personality made for such a great experience. I was so impressed with how impeccably clean he keeps his space. He truly listens to his clients to bring their vision to life. He is a master of his craft
This is the place to go to get any peircing done Kevin is the coolest dude youll ever meet. hes super knowledgeable and will answer any questions you have. I felt like we just hanging out in his living room, the whole time I was super relaxed and comfortable there (and I have bad anxiety). thank you for such a wonderful experience Ill never forget (:
Got my first nostril piercing! The owner/piercer Kevin provided a very personal and fun experience, I felt he was just as excited for me to get pierced as I was! It was the first time meeting him but it felt like we were old friends the moment I walked through the door. He was patient with my questions and provided a small aftercare pamphlet for me to take home. Really beautiful jewelry selection. This was an experience i want to come back for.
Kevin is a stellar piercer. I had seen him before at a previous location and when I went to locate him again via Instagram, I was thrilled to see that he had opened his own location and instantly booked an appointment. From the second I stepped in, I felt very very comfortable in this space. I hesitate to refer to it as a shop because it is more than that. He has put effort into creating an experience and I could feel this instantly. He was extremely helpful and thorough in making sure the placement of my piercings were what I wanted and executed it perfectly. He took his time with the process which I really appreciate. Hes just an awesome individual too and great to talk to. It says something when you can be half naked in front of someone and it just feels like a chat and like its no big deal.TLDR: Kevin is awesome, go see him. Enjoy the whole experience. Youll be happy you did.
This isnt just a piercing shop, it is an experience and a welcoming. Walking in and meeting Kevin will give you a sense of hanging out with an old friend, if youve been here before, or the excitement of making a new friend that is equally as excited, if youre new to Wholehearted. From the most simple to the obscure piercing, Kevin will make you feel comfortable and at ease with over 20 yrs as a professional. I wouldnt have my daughters or myself go anywhere else!
This place is amazing!! Kevin has a great jewelry selection and the atmosphere is so calming. It really makes you feel like you are chilling in someone’s living room. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming back!
Kevin is the only person who I’ll let pierce me. He is so amazing, I’ve have like 10 piercings done by him and I’m always so happy with them. Super professional guy! he’s been doing this for years and it shows! Must come visit and see for yourself. You’ll never go anywhere else!
Super friendly, super welcoming, and really understanding. If I get more piercings Im getting them here
Kevin is amazing and goes through all the steps with you before you start. Super clean and inviting atmosphere. Tons of high quality selection jewelry. I feel like I made a friend and a new piercer for life!
Kevin is one of my favorite people on this planet. He has done my three pericigs I have and will be doing more. Ive been going to him since the last place he worked at, and recently got my nipple bars changed out at his new shop. He is the more caring and most fun person ever. Any nerves you have are melted away by his kind warm heart. Sometimes i want a piercing just for the experience with him and then I have to talk myself out of it! He listens, hes patient, hes funny and everything is so clean and sanitary. I will be visiting soon though for my fourth piercing! I will always recommend everyone to this amazing soul! When I decide to move out of state Ill still travel out here to get pierced by him. Love you Kevin💕
Kevin is a great piercer, I have instructed all my friends to go to his studio! His selection of jewelry is beautiful, he doesnt rush his appointments, he is precise and experienced -- I cant envision myself getting pierced by anyone else so he better not ever move out of the state.
I am so happy to have found Kevin, it has been awhile since I have gotten pierced. Had been looking for awhile, everything about the service was hands down the best. Very professional, informative and safe. Clean and relaxing environment Kevin by far is the best! I will definitely return for future visits 🙂
Ive been going to Kevin for YEARS. I would never go anywhere else to get pierced. Kevin is professional and educated!! Not to mention his studio is incredibly beautiful and clean. All around good energy.
I am sorry, this review should’ve been posted a while ago. Especially since I low key stalked Kevin for years. I have wanted to get this piercing for years. I did tons of research before going (I highly recommend The Piercing Bible for info). This was not a total whim. More like I had to work the courage. Kevin was absolutely amazing. I had finally worked up the courage to call and of course it was close to closing :( My friend was in town from Seattle and leaving before the shop opened again. Kevin said he would wait for us.When we got there the first thing I noticed was how clean and open the shop was. It has an art gallery feel to it. Kevin explained everything with great detail. More importantly he didn’t rush us. Really, I would’ve understood if he did. He waited for us well after closing. He made me feel really comfortable. Everyone has their own pain tolerance, I feel like mine is kinda on the low side. With that said it was did not hurt that much.I cannot say enough positive things about this amazing experience!! Thank you so much Kevin for the wonderful memory for this trip!
Im 62, afraid of needles. My husband bought me a pair of earrings for our 39th anniversary so after a couple months I gave in to piercing. I was given Kevins name by a diligent researcher and yes, he deserves 50 stars.
Kevin was absolute amazing and makes the time so personal and welcoming! I definitely will be back for more! He is so kind and makes sure to walk you through everything he is doing so you are not in the dark. I was SOO nervous but he made my experience better!
Kevin is one of a kind ! He is very welcoming, and personable ! The studio is beautifully designed, and cozy. A tremendous selection of fine, and exotic Jewelry. A wonderful piercing experience in Phoenix, AZ .
Kevins shop is a perfect extension of himself - warm, inviting, thoughtful and intentional. His charm and charisma are only eclipsed by his professionalism and abundant knowledge of all things piercing. I wouldnt get pierced by anyone else.
Its always a great experience! Kevin Jump is the best! ❤️✨
If you want holes poked in to your body, you want someone who will make you feel comfortable every step of the way. Kevin is the person you want. Wherever I end up, my recommendation will always be him!
If you’re skeptical here’s your sign to go… like right now!I went with my mom and my dad for my birthday. My mom was super nervous (she has reallyyyy bad anxiety) and my dad was nervous about it going through cartilage. Kevin made it really fun and helped my mom out a lot. I’m supposed to be going back soon to stretch out my septum and get my ears done and I can’t wait. The decor is artistic and inviting, Kevin makes sure EVERYTHING is sanitized, and you’ll be walked through the whole process.
Absolutely amazing. Everyone has their own reasons for getting pierced. Today, I got a double conch (re)piercing to help me get through a broken heart. Kevins professionalism and kindness, along with his extensive expertise, made me feel slightly more (w)hole.
Kevin is amazing !!!! He made sure that everything was perfect and that I was happy with my piercings. He didn’t rush anything... he made sure that the placement was perfect on each side... I will be coming back!!
Inconsiderate to potential customers. I walked here in the summer heat to just take a look at their jewelry selection and the guy has the audacity to tell me how I’m not welcome inside to just make an appointment and see their selection. Pretentious.
Best piercing experience ever. Knowledgeable, friendly, caring. Won’t go anywhere else now!
If I could turn back the clock and get all of my piercings here, I would. Kevin’s vibe is familiar as soon as you walk through the door, even on the first visit. Getting my conch and daith was by far the most chill and fun experience I’ve had with any piercer. 10/10.
Kevin at Wholehearted piercing was AMAZING! This was my first time coming here for a nostril piercing by a friends recommendation and it was the best decision I ever made. I usually go to HTC or Halo but lately their staffs rudeness has turned me off from them. I saw Wholehearted was still doing nostril b/c Halo wasnt at the moment due to the pandemic so I decided to book it. He gave me pricing on different types of jewelry, why some pieces would work and others wouldnt, personal tips for after care, and explanations on it all. He was friendly, answered all of the questions that I had and made me feel super comfortable in the space. He doesnt try to upsell you on jewelry or aftercare products even though he has them available, he truly cares about you & your piercing. I have about 15 piercings all done at HTC or Halo but my nostril done at Wholehearted was my favorite. This is my new spot! I am returning a week later for a new helix. Thank you Kevin!
My visit here was probably one of my most interesting endevors. I was gypsying down grand ave and meandered into this shop. It turned into my favorite piercing visit. Kevin is fun, kind, sweet, insightful, and focuses on making your piercing YOURS. Ive been handing his cards out like candy. Hope to see him back soon. 🖤
Got my first piercing ever here. Kevin was amazing and very kind. Walked me through the whole process and had very good convo with him. The piercing itself was not too painful and was pretty quick to get. I would definently reccomend coming here 100%.
Kevin was so professional, kind, and helpful. His shop is well-kept and very clean. A nice selection of jewelry to choose from, too.
I loovveeee Kevin and his work! If you had a really bad experience getting pierced, but still want a cute piercing, GO TO HIM! I had a really bad experience and didn’t think I was going to get another piercing after that, but after seeing him, I have 4 more lol! He’s has such a sweet and welcoming soul and his work is, honestly, art. Not only will you gain a piercer, you’ll gain a friend.
Amazing friendly and clean! Kevin is an awesome piercer and made me feel very safe and comfortable. Will only be going to him for future piercings from now on 🤘
Words don’t exist to express just how great everything about this studio is. From the feeling you get upon entering, to Kevin’s immaculate skills in both piercing and making you feel at home. 15/10 will recommend to any and everyone
Kevin is extremely knowledgeable about his craft and the jewelry he uses. He takes the time to help with decisions and has the wisdom to ask about long term plans to make sure the end goals is achieved.
Kevin is the best! He’s kind, considerate, and professional. He truly cares about his clients and takes pride in his work.
Kevin is amazing as is his shop/jewelry. Super pleasant experience and he really knows his stuff. I’d recommend his place to anyone and everyone, and would definitely go back for other piercings
Ive been to (W)holehearted piercing about 4 times now and it is always an incredible experience. Kevin is amazing and instantly makes you feel comfortable!
Kevin loves what he does and is an expert at his craft. i got my nips pierced and he was super kind, professional, and completely knowledgeable when i had any questions. ill def be back when i want my next piercing! 💫
Kevin is amazing and makes you feel so comfortable! The space is cozy and clean, perfect for newbies and those familiar with being pierced. Totally recommend!
Exceeded my expectations beyond measure. Good vibes. Great prices. Clean shop from the entry to the back. Amazing selection of jewelry. Kevin is the BEST- you will not be disappointed!!
Kevin was professional and patient - and funny! His shop was clean, inviting and I love the high quality jewelry collection - which I will be coming back to purchase in the future! I highly recommend this place!
Kevin has been the best piercer I have ever gone to!! I cannot recommend him highly enough and I plan to go to him for all of my future piercings.
This is a professional and very relaxing and calming environment. He listens, is patient, calming, very thoughtful and thorough in explaining the process of anything you ask about. So incredible and personable. Amazing experience! Weather your first or 50th piercing, please check this place out!!
I just got a VCH piercing done by Kevin & it was honestly the best piercing experience I’ve ever had! He made me very comfortable from the get go and was extremely professional. I could not recommend him more! ❤️
Such a great spot with one of the most calming, caring individuals in the body mod community. His attention to detail in his work is great, plus the shop decor is beautiful. Plenty of jewelry options, immaculately clean and tidy.
Piercing checkup/downsize experience:I really enjoyed the personal time to talk about the place I had originally gone to get my piercings (nostril and rook) looked at since the other place took 2 seconds too look at my piercings and said I was good when the nostril jewlary was obviously too big and needed down sizing at week 5 (kept spinning around in my nose) and they told me no (even after I booked and paid for an appointment). ANYWAYS, its now week 6 seeked out a new place found this one on APP site. Was closest to my home and I really liked the creative name and the jewlary selection. He helped me downsize and change my my nostril from a cork screw style to a Labret and helping downsize the labret bars for my second lobes and mid ear piercing. I am beyond pleased with a proper fitted jewlary! Thank you for helping me get properly fitted bars & double checking the rook and reassuring me its doing good. 😊Also had him verify my ear drawing plan for future piercings and helped me confirm I can do all my future plan holes! Cant wait!!
I was searching for a piercer a couple weeks ago, I decided to come here because I was skittish of the reviews thinking they were fake, but I promise you he seriously is the best, he was so awesome. We got the VIP treatment that I didnt know I needed. He was so patient, kind, funny and professional, I mean it when I say it has been one of the best memories I have created. WILL DEFINITELY BE COMMING BACK !!!
Kevin was super knowledgeable! He made me feel very comfortable through the whole process and answered all my concerns. He’s very personable and easy to talk to, I would highly recommend his shop.
Kevin is so kind and knowledgeable. The jewelry selection is incredible. This will definitely be my go-to piercing shop from now on.
Loved my experience here, I dont think I could have chosen a better person to pierce my ears. So friendly, explained everything very well so I knew what to expect, and I felt very comfortable. Great selection of jewelry, too. Thank you!!!
Great shop and amazing experience every time I’ve gone in!
Please see Kevin for all of your piercing needs, he treats everyone with kindness and respect and not to mention his energy is one of a kind. Very clean shop, on time and so many jewelry options.
Came all the way from Colorado for the amazing energy this guy puts out as well as his professionalism!! Also has some of the best jewelry to select from, thanks Kev!!! 💜
Literally the sweetest man Ive ever met. So caring and professional. Will be going back for the rest of my piercings because I left with no pain at all and couldnt be happier with the attention to detail and accuracy. Will 100% recommend to all my friends looking for piercings.
Kevin is great!! Made sure I was comfortable and that I liked my placement before he pierced me.
Kevin was awesome and made the whole experience enjoyable! His knowledge and passion are evident in the way he cares for his clients.
One of the best piercing studios you could hope to be pierced at, the piercer Kevin is the most humble but personable people I’ve ever met, if you want a quality piercing done in a safe environment please go here.
Amazing experience. Top quality professionalism, know-how, bedside manner, and sanitation. Kevin goes above and beyond to make it as holistic and comfortable an experience as possible.
Was the best and most comforting experience while getting pierced :-) home like environment.
Genuinely nice person, great shop, i would highly recommend!

After some careful research I was 1000% positive this was the shop to go to for any piercings. Especially because I was considering cheek Piercings. Its the only shop that listed available piercings, specifically stated that cheek piercing placement is essential and the healing process can be long. He asks for a deposit to make an appointment which shows me he has business style and ethics. I went in and decided to get a Jestrum piercing instead of my cheeks for reasons related to the job I do. His shop is spotless but not medical, sterile but not cold, and he is absolutely dedicated to doing a perfect job. The piercing came out perfect. Not even remotely crooked...perfection. He made sure I was feeling alright during the process and gave me excellent advice on how to best deal with the healing. I will definitely only be going here fur any piercings from here on out and Im looking into the scarification process as well.
