I called to make an appointment. The young lady who answered the phone said she was just covering the phones and wasnt exactly sure what the availability was, but sent a link to my cell phone to see availability online and book the appointment. Super helpful!The appointment was made for my 13-year-old, who was getting the first set of 10 gauge earlobe piercings. Happy birthday! The young lady working reception was very nice super helpful with getting the paperwork started.Kenny was our piercest. My kid was super nervous and he did a great job of making her feel comfortable. He was super personable, friendly, knowledgeable and funny.They were really busy, but did a great job of getting people through without feeling rushed.The atmosphere is great. They have all kinds of memorabilia from the 90s, like the Simpsons, Ninja turtles and family Guy.I would definitely recommend taking a trip to area 51 for at least your piercing needs.

My spouse got me a surprise tattoo for the flash sale on Valentines day as a tribute to my mom that passed away a little over a year ago and I couldnt be more pleased with the results! Dave was my tattoo artist and he was very friendly and easy to talk to. All around amazing vibes at that shop.

Rob tatted my best friend and I last minute. our regular artist cancelled since it was Fathers Day, but rob had to problem working on us! he was professional, but awesome to talk with, wasnt standoffish, and did great work! healed well, only one spot of irritation on mine and that was most likely my fault anyways (:

Jared at Area 51 Piercing is the very best in many ways. I will always take my friends and family to him for piercing. He is great with younger kids as he explains everything to them. He is a great educator giving clear explanation for any idea. His selection of jewelry is mind blowing.

Great experience from start to finish! From the woman at the front to the piercer. They made the whole experience really easy and pleasant. The shop is extremely clean, following covid guidelines, the interior design is so fun and everyone was friendly and professional. All our questions were answered and they were very knowledgeable. The prices are phenomenal as well and well definitely be back in the future!

Started planning for a tattoo in early September and was able to get a consult and the actual appointment within two months. Kyler was very easy to work with and understood my nervousness as a first timer. He explained the steps, gave me a fair, clear price for the job, and I was never left questioning anything. The design was spectacular, the space was clean and organized, the artist was friendly and engaging, asking my opinion along the way. The aftercare I was suggested worked perfectly and not even two weeks later, the skin is healed and vibrant. Well worth the money, and I intend to return many more times.

I absolutely loved the vibe at Area 51 from the moment I stepped in the door. Everyone was so friendly and professional! I had Peck for my industrial and helix piercings. He was super chill, went over everything step by step and made the entire experience simple and easy. Im 100% going back when its time for more piercing and/or tattoo therapy!

Chris Akins did a great job! My first tattoo came out the way I had wanted it. Chris has a really nice touch, so the process wasnt as painful as I had expected. I recommend this fellow to everyone who are planning on getting their tattoos.

I love my New Piercings. I have been going to Jared for all my piercing needs, and the Jewelry collection is to die for.Beautiful results. June 2020I was having some problems with my ear cartilage i was able to book a free trouble shoot appointment the next day and got some great advice. treatment suggestions and had all my questions answered. I felt much better after my visit and my ears are 100% now Aug 2020Jared of Area 51 has been doing my piercings for years I added some pictures of all the finished work and some throwbacks from back in the day Sep 2020

Absolutely amazing experience. I got my first real piercing, a nose septum piercing, and the experience was great. Everyone was super nice, place was clean, great attractions and more. They were able to squeeze me in last minute (due to my impulsiveness) which I am very thankful for. Jared talked me through the whole process and made me feel very comfortable. Would absolutely come again for any future piercings. Definitely recommend.

Had a great experience getting my forehead/ hairline tattoo done by Jason Moore. Hes a great artist and has a vary light touch. I couldnt even feel the tattoo getting done. Also had a great time reminiscing about old punk bands and songs with him. Definitely think I found the artist I want to stick with. Already working on a back piece idea!!!

I went in today and had such a great experience. Right as I walked in I felt welcomed and comfortable even though I was very nervous. The lady at the front desk was super friendly I didnt get her name but she was very nice. Kenneth was the one that did my three piercings, both sides of nose and tragus. He made me feel very welcomed and answered all my questions. He was so nice and his energy was great. He did so great. I will be recommending to everyone I can and definitely will be back. Thanks so much for an overall great experience.

I have been to this Area 51 twice now. Once to get my belly button pierced and my ear cuff changed. Every time I go there the staff is so sweet and very helpful. They made me feel very comfortable and were skilled. My belly button piercing was a breeze. There jewelry selection is great and high quality. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Review №28

When I tell you that our experience was incredible today, I mean it was literally the best customer service I have ever encountered. My daughter struggles with severe anxiety and Jared found a way to calm and empower her through her experience. He was kind, patient, respectful, patient, honest and did I mention, patient. He helped with more than her piercings and, as her mom, I am forever grateful for his understanding and calm.The rest of the staff were amazing as well. From phone inquiries to jewelry selection, facility cleanliness to COVID management, we could not have had a better experience.

Review №29

I had a great experience here. I booked an appointment online about a week in advance and was seen quickly after I came in. I got 3 piercings from Megan (2 high nostril and one regular nostril) and would highly recommend you go to them. The placements were placed perfectly on the first try, and I was told how each step would work before it happened and it was super quick and pretty much painless. Megan has a very sweet and calming energy and made me feel super comfortable and taken care of during the whole thing. I felt a bit faint when I stood up at the end, and was offered a snack and drink and as much time as I needed to lay down and feel better. I didnt feel rushed at all. Also they have a great selection of jewelry and you can even start with fun pieces, not just the standard basic plain jewelry. I dont usually leave reviews, but I was really nervous going in and felt such relief and satisfaction coming out. I would give Megan 6 stars if I could.

Just went in to the new downtown Eugene location and Trevor was our piercer. He did earrings for both of my Young daughters, and a second hole and tragus piercing on me. He was professional, patient, explained everything so well and was really good with my children. The facility itself was super clean and they had a very nice jewelry selection.Highly recommend.

Review №31

I love Meg, she’s always done amazing work for me; however I’d like to add that the lady that helped her with my friends tongue is also absolutely amazing. After my friend had falsely been told that she can’t have a piercing done, it was looked at twice (Meg and her boss{?}) found it fine, and it was! She loves her piercing! I’m so happy I didn’t lose my septum and it was quick and easy to put back. I’ll definitely be making the drive for them!

Review №32

This review is for the Eugene location. I cannot say enough good things about the ambiance of the studio and the friendliness and professionalism of the staff! Meg pierced my 7-year-old daughter’s ears and worked oh so patiently with my 4-year-old daughter to pierce her ears as well…there were lots of nerves and hesitation…it took 3 separate visits in one day for my younger daughter to build the courage to pierce both ears! Meg was beyond incredible and respectful of my daughter’s big feelings. After her second ear was pierced, my daughter was over the moon ecstatic with her earrings and proud of herself. Two weeks later, my 4-year-old still says that Meg “is the best ear piercer” and “loves” them

Meg did an AMAZING job. This isnt my first visit here, but me and my boyfriend got pierced sunday, I got my labret and he got his nostril and they were super great about explaining after care and what they were doing during the piercing so neither of us were worried in the slightest. We were almost late and the person working the counter was very understanding and sweet about it,, they even accommodated my young daughter being with us.Thank you for the great experience! Cant wait for the next visit!

Absolutely wonderful experience! Ive gotten two piercings here, belly button and helix, one by Jared and one by Kenny.

The shop is beautifully decorated as well. Ill probably never go anywhere else for piercings 💖💖💖

I travelled 3 hours to get pierced by Jared and I found the entire experience amazing. I had my questions answered before I made the trip. ( The piercing I got not anyone can do ;) ) The whole process was smooth and professional. Jared made my experience relaxing, and helped me get through it. I even had questions a few days later and they were more then willing to answer them again. I highly recommend them!

My daughter and I both got piercings by Sam and she was amazing. Everyone in the shop was super friendly and helpful. Sam was very professional and her room was spotlessly clean. Im hooked on piercings now and plan to go back to Sam again soon even though Eugene is almost 2 hours from where I live. Yes, shes that good!

I’m afraid of needles and this place is the place to go. Specifically for Jared. All the ladies and gentlemen are great but he’s the best of the best. I usually freak out and tend to be difficult with needles. But he was so professional and knew what he was doing. Very knowledgeable. He did my tongue piercing. When I say two seconds. It literally took two seconds. I will becoming back.

I got my first tattoo from Jason here at area 51 and I couldnt be happier with it. He showed me that the only limitation he has as an artist is my own imagination. I am blown away by the final result and I will be coming back in the future 100%. Thank you again for working with me.

Review №44

I went in to Area 51 after recommending it to others off of hearsay and knowing one of the tattoo artists relatives- and I figured, after all this time, I needed first hand experience (and wanted my septum pierced)! I went into it fairly nervous, even though Ive been in with friends to be moral support for their various piercings my whole life- however, instantly I was reassured to a level I had not seen others receive at other shops Id witnessed. Not only were they fast without lacking thoroughness, but they were all very charismatic and personable. As someone who is outgoing, that already tells me a lot, so I was more excited than nervous! After brief paperwork and picking my jewelry, it was time. You will NOT run out of nostalgic art or interesting decorations to look at- I felt right at home, having grown up around most of what was hanging on those walls.When it came time, the piercing artist Holly (who was filling in for my original piercer Jared, who also came highly recommended) invited me back and talked me through the process, asked if I had any nervousness or undue stress over it, and such. Plus, once again, very personable and easy going, and definitely relieved some of my anxiety. Again!Once it came time to get pierced, she was very calm and collected as she explained what she was doing, and checked in many times to make sure everything was good on my end. Safe to say, sitting there with a needle through my septum probably would never have felt more peaceful. Maybe its context, but I am crediting all the amazing service and the atmosphere. Once it was pulled through, my nose wouldnt cooperate with the jewelry (because I did not take into account how small of a diameter I got- oops. Thats on me) but there was very little pain, if nothing else, just pressure. I did not have a good frame of reference for my pain tolerance, and I mentioned it, and Holly was amazing at checking in. I had no issues, and it was relatively painless, a little pressure aside. Holly did an amazing job, as there was barely any pain- and she was very concise, and gentle! I feel like I lucked out in my choice of shop, and that I still had someone who made an absolute greenhorn to being pierced feel like it was a routine doctors visit. Only judgement-free, much cheaper, and way friendlier!Overall, I came in having an expectation of easy-going yet highly professional and skilled tattoo artists and piercing artists- and not only was that expectation met, exceeded, and shattered- but I now think I am definitely going to come back time and time again, because I did not even know whether I wanted a piercing for certain. As someone indecisive, I figured if I did not like it I could remove it and it would heal. But after my experience at Area 51, not only am I going to come back for more piercings... But I am definitely going to get my first non-stick n poke done here! Not only do I feel more confident from the piercing, but the whole experience made me so much more at ease about the process. From one artist (of a different niche) to everyone at Area 51, thank you for the exceptional service and amazing piercing. I do not know if I could be more happy about it all, but one thing is for sure- I will be back, and now that I am more familiar, I dont think I will ever stop recommending your shop. Keep in mind, I never thought I would get a nose piercing- let alone a septum for my first- or a piercing at all! But I am so glad I did, and grateful I had the best team around.Thank you Area 51, you all rock! Until next time! They really HAVE been here the longest, and if you go in, youll learn exactly why.

Before I went in Id never gotten a piercing, so I had no expectations. The immediate atmosphere was friendly and interacting with the staff was easy. They explained the types of piercings I could get and narrowed it down to the price range I was dealing with.Piercing both ears and the septum seemed daunting, but the guy helping me was very professional and did his best to make me feel comfortable while he stabbed me. He was quick, efficient, and gave me a juice box afterwards.10/10 service, Im definitely coming back!

Ive gone to Jared multiple times for piercings and hes absolutely fantastic. Fast and professional service, yet also feels like hes a close friend every time Im in the shop. Great with people who are nervous too. Personally, needles terrify me (yet I love tattoos and piercings, ironic huh?) He knows how to keep me calm. and Anyways, hes great at what he does whether youve never gotten a piercing and are terrified about it, or if you have 20-something piercings already, hes great. Wouldnt recommend anyone else as much as Jared.

Jared is awesome! He’s an extremely experienced piercer and now my go to guy. I was so nervous because I’d never been pierced with anything except a piercing gun.

Review №58

My 6 year old decided she wanted her ears pierced. We went in on a Sunday and she picked out earrings. I asked if she could see the piercing rooms so shed be less nervous when her appointment came, Holly gladly showed her all around and quickly made friends with my daughter. The day of her appointment came and when it came down to it , she wasnt ready. I try to teach her she can say no at anytime when it comes to her body and thats what she did right before she got pierced. Holly backed that up and stayed positive even though she spent so much time with us. I really appreciated the whole experience even though we left without ear piercings. They lady at the front desk, I believe her name is Bird, she is absolutely amazing too .

We took our 5 year old to have her ears pierced today and the whole experience was wonderful. As always everyone was sweet and professional. They put on Minions for our 2 year old while we waited, which was awesome. Plus hot cookies from Katie. The cleanliness and professionalism is a 10 out of 10! Multiple gloves changes between touching different items and everything was sterilized in front of us. I feel very safe in saying if you or your children want a piercing this is the way to go! Thank you all again!

I had my nostril pierced by Jared about two and a half months ago. I was able to use Groupon for the piercing, which was very easy to redeem with them. The employees I interacted with were personable and very helpful with my questions. Jared was a pleasured to be pierced by. Aside from being relieved that he enforced mask protocol, Jared helped me feel extremely comfortable from the moment we met to our farewell. During the actual piercing, he worked with professional quickness. I would love to go back, and recommend the shop to my friends and family!

Review №64

Honestly. I would completely give a higher review of it was just for the piercer. She was wonderful.The shop on the other hand. When we walked in they were quick to take us on as walk ons with our one person who had an appointment. But told us we, as the walk ins, would be put last after the appointments. We were completely okay with it, until, two more walk ins came in and instently took priority over EVERYONE ELSE. including their appointments. The owner was more worried about looking like a big shot and taking care of his friends (including making it known that he was giving them MASSIVE discounts in front of all the other customers) then he was about anyone else. Because of this, the person we came with who had an appointment didnt get seen until an hour after their appointment time.On top of that, they only tell you the amount for the jewelry and keep any and all fees tell the end, where it goes from $40 to $70. They only sell silver and gold jewelry, as someone who prefers steel was frustrating.No. I wont be back.

Omgoodness! We drive 2 hours anytime one of our family wants a new piercing and have converted some friends to Area 51 as well. The staff is knowledgeable and engaging. Kenny is the only piercist we use. Really, its not against anyone else, but because we started off with him and have seen no reason to switch. He has a calm, skillful, inclusive manner and he makes the process comfortable, easy and as painless as it can be. The shop itself is a trip! Its filled with 90s figurines, arcade games, posters and paintings. Its colorful and fun. There is a good selection of high quality jewelry and the art on everything from stickers and cards to shirts and hoodies is beautiful. $30 and you can get as many piercings as you can handle, plus the price of jewelry. We havent found anyone or any place as talented, unique or welcoming anywhere near us. It is well worth the drive!

Review №69

My assisted my daughter in driving to this tattoo shop in Springfield Oregon, broadly decorated in the Simpsons animation, and according to my daughter, the home of a renowned tattoo artist and his staff. This four-star genius creative talent has been a first pick/only pick for having artwork permanently place on my daughters body, and all of it is so colorful and detailed.When she finished up we picked her up for the ride back to Portland and she was over the moon elated with all of the finished tattoos. They were amazingly beautiful in their own way but the colors and the detail was really amazing. And the amount of artwork versus the amount of time she sat in the chair is also unbelievable. Mr Chris, thank you for putting a huge smile on my daughters face and a truckload of confidence within her spirit. It was a fantastic day for all filled with positivity, conversation, and the camaraderie after the fact was immeasurable.

Everyone here is so nice and helpful. They have an accessible ramp and I can fit my manual wheelchair in the bathroom (I havent tried with the electric).

My first time at Area 51 for a tattoo but not my first tattoo. The place had an amazing atmosphere. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The studio was clean and organized. Jason Moore did an excellent job on my tattoo. He took my idea and made it a reality. His design and artwork were spot on. I couldn’t be happier with the end result. HIGHLY recommend Jason to anyone interested in a tattoo.

I knew exactly what piercings I wanted but wanted to be prepared and talk about the whole process. Thats where I found Area 51 and Jared! He answered all of my questions in the most professional manner! Gave me the run down on what to expect and calmly explained everything I needed to know. Jared was not pushy and was not there for the money. He definitely made my satisfaction his first priority. I would recommend him again and again to anyone who wants a transparent, professional, CLEAN, experienced, cool dude to pierce ya. Dont settle for anything less! He also sterilizes right in front of you so there is no questions. Money cant buy a piece of mind so raise your standards and go hit him up!

I’ve gotten a couple piercings at Area 51. Some of which I had to go in and get changed out, repierced etc. They’ve been so so so kind and accommodating, they’re incredibly nice, and I’ve never felt uncomfortable reaching out to request anything. They’re super timely, and their website makes it super easy to digitally schedule an appointment. For piercings, it’s very affordable! I highly recommend for anyone who wants to get a piercing done. :)

Love, love, love Area51, but especially love Jared (piercing) and Katie (tattoo removal). Theyre so genuine and real. You arent treated like a customer, youre treated like family and its so refreshing.Alssooooooo, way better prices and overall experience compared to other shops in the area, 100%. Id pay more at Area51 than any other shop for the atmosphere alone.12/10 would reccomend

Best place in town? BEST place in the southern Oregon area. Professionals as heck. WIDE selection. Jared is so kind and knows his stuff. He is really easy to talk to. It’s so clean and beautifully organized inside. High quality affordable jewelry. And he cleaned and sanatized my old jewelry before I left! Highly recommend. Will return and send people this way always.

I am thrilled to have Area 51 Piercing. We are truly lucky to have such an amazing guy behind the needle. Jared has been my personal piercer since I was a teenager and he was an apprentice. Even back then he had a gift. Has always me feel at ease even when I was nervous. I have taken my daughter to get pierced by him and he always has a way of getting her to laugh through her scared tears. LOL Jared take pride in what he does and always has. One of the cleanest shops and some of the most beautiful authentic body jewelry in town. This year my daughter got us matching piercings for my birthday and I got to meet his apprentice. Sure sucks getting old but so good to see him passing on his knowledge. If you are looking to get a piercing, look no more. Area 51 Piercing has you covered. 💯

This crew at Area 51 is incredible. Not only did they take every necessary precaution for our current pandemic situation but they explained how they would do the piercing I was getting, what to expect during and after, aftercare, and then assisted me in choosing jewelry that made sense for my lifestyle. My Medusa hurt way less than I expected and the healing has been very easy.You want a piercing or new jewelry, go down to the shop. Theyre incredible!

My partner got two piercings on her lower lip (spider bites). Despite the fact that they were absolutely swamped with both appointments and walk-ins they both managed to maintain social distancing between clients and completed our piercing in an extremely professional manner.They used a hollow needle by hand for the piercing instead of those disease ridden piercing guns and I have never been more assured that the pricing was clean.Finally Im more than pleased with the pricing. For two piercings and, two rings to hold open said piercings, we only spent $100 (thats the price for the work, the jewlery, and enough cleaner to last several months.) I reccomend Area 51 for anyone looking for safe piercings and tattoo work.

I came here about a year ago to get my nose pierced. It was my first nose piercing so I didnt know what to expect. He pierced my nose with a huge ring way to far down. I was forced to come in a week later as it was super infected. The lady at the front desk looked horrified that I had gotten that done there. He took me back and switched it out with a stud. It eventually healed but that was such a bad experience and such a waste of money. Ill be getting it re pierced somewhere better.

1st of all, pulling up theres a mural of Simpsons characters painted on the building prominently featured is Radioactive Man Barts favorite superhero, being a comic lover as well as a die-hard Simpsons fan made me feel right at home. Then you walk into the door and theres all this memorabilia on the walls totally my kind of place. The staff are very welcoming and the place is kept very clean. I went in to get a PA and the gentleman that pierced me was training an apprentice so he asked if was alright if she was in the room. I agreed. As he was explaining to her he appeared very knowledgeable and patient. Im going back for some tattoo and who knows maybe a new piercing.

Ive gotten my ears pierced 3 times. Only two were in conscious memory-one I passed out and the other I got a Capri Sun-I bet you can guess which one I liked more. The first time it was a really new experience so I didnt know what to expect but yesterday I realized how bad my first experience was compared to Area 51. Area 51 made me feel comfortable, talked to me and made me laugh. I was able to pick my new earrings one by one (3 total) and I love them (theyre a little pricey but I wasnt paying so what can I say). Although the piercings hurt, Kenneth talked to me and didnt rush me through it so I felt a lot better. Between the 1st and 2nd one I asked for a bit more time to catch my breath and he did. After it all I sat up and told him I felt light headed and he gave me Capri Sun and I felt infinitely better. Its been over 12 hours, my new tragus doesnt even hurt and I cant stop bragging to my friends about how happy I am with the piercing and the experience :)

Review №121

My brilliant existence did what weve all done during the pandemic. I bought jewelry online. This ended up being a not bright idea as I ended up with a septum hole that was closing without my knowledge. I went into Area 51 based on the ratings and the easy booking system, and I was not disappointed. I assumed the hole had completely closed since I couldnt get anything through it and that I would need it pierced again. The piercer asked me a few questions and said we probably could just taper it out. He was right, and he didnt charge me a piercing fee even though I feel like there should absolutely be one for that level of work.Everyone in the shop was super friendly and kind, something I appreciate and make note of in the sea of aloof and too cool studios. If we werent in a pandemic, Id actually want to hang out with them.On the pandemic note, I cant speak highly enough about the Covid precautions. You call the shop ahead of time to let them know youve arrived. I suggest doing this from your car if you can since its next to a loud road. I made the mistake of not doing this. Everyone was masked up and constantly cleaning. While studios of course have good sanitation practices to begin with, you could see that it had been taken up a notch. Everyone was also respecting social distancing and only coming into close contact with people who they were working on. Casual conversation was done from afar.I cannot give this place enough praise.

Review №122

Such a rad time. I went in knowing kind of what I wanted, however the gentleman piercer suggested to me what he thought would look good. And it was exactly what I had thought or seen in my head. Definitely ask what theyd suggest even if you have an idea, this is what they do for a living. So friendly talked to me like a person, and not just money as other shops around town do - have done.Ill be back for sure. Area 51 is where you should go for your jewelry and piercing experience!!!SUPER STOKED

Kyler tattooed a rad Connie (the Hormone Monstress) on my calf well over a year ago and it still looks phenomenal. He took his time, but didn’t take TOO much time and his color choices have remained bright- even the whites of her eyes. Every person in the shop was kind and their customer service was top notch. The shop itself was clean and I love the atmosphere. TLDR; Area 51 is a shop where you feel at ease when you walk in the door- from the cleanliness to the artists and their work, you won’t regret your choice.

Review №128

I went to get my septum pierced last June. They did not get the right spot, and not only did it hurt like hell, but the piercer did not stop even after I begged him to. And I mean, screaming and sobbing and saying stop, stop. Not only that, but he went in at a bad angle and had to redo it. When that happens a piercer is supposed to send you home, and then you can come back once the initial hole is healed over. He did not do that, and re-pierced it then and there. It was an overall traumatic experience and I went home in agony. For reference on how bad the pain was-- I had a fairly major abdominal surgery a few months ago. I had to walk right afterward, and it was so painful I nearly vomited. It was still not nearly as bad as that septum piercing was. Never coming back.

I figured out how to put the tiny ball back on myself. I woke up the next morning and the ball was gone. Came off again when I was sleeping. I didnt have time to deal with it because I had to be to work at 6am. I proceeded on my day missing one ball on it. Because of this pandemic & the whole mandated face mask wearing I lost the jewelry while at work...Super sad because I paid $40 for it! Other than that they are great.

I was very pleased with my experience. I was given great before, during, and after information on the prosses of tattoo removal. Will be going back and would highly recommend anyone to go and see katie.
