I got 8 piercings done here by Misty and she is wonderful! For my 3rd lobe set, she took the time to actually measure my earlobe so they would be exactly the same on each side. The entire staff is always super friendly, helpful, and supportive. I will always recommend them and always return.

They are always very busy which I suppose speaks for itself. I have gone here a few times for different jewelry. The first time I wanted a new Lebrae ring and they put 1 in that was to short. I told them it wasnt going to work. They left it and 3 days later the ring had sunk into my lip and skin had completely grown over it! I had to rip it out! I went back and they put the proper size in! I went here recently and bought another lebrae. I wanted to make sure the 1 incident did not happen again so I asked them to make sure and give me the same length that I currently had in. Well this one is to long lol. It sticks out to far. I use an 8. The 1st x they put a 6 in and this x a 10. I did go back but it was going to be like a 2 hour wait for them to help put it in. They did however give me the right length bar! I cant put it in myself but they tried!

I got my lower helix pierced and my friend got here rook and her tragus pierced. Both of us are healing great, and the lady who did our ears was a sweetheart! Would definitely go back again

They have done several piercings for me and two tattoos. I have always been very pleased with them!

Honestly Ive been a customer here and I love it! Im about to get another tattoo soon and Im exited! Thanks for doing such a good job!

Got a tattoo covered up from an abusive ex and it turned out AMAZING! ABSOLUTELY SCREAMING THANK YOU TO FEAR FACTOR! ❤🙌

Richard Jr took very good care of my wants with my tattoo. Excellent Job Richard Jr. Thank you Buddy

Usually fully booked for weeks. Piercing technician usually arrives at 2pm if youre looking to get a piercing. They sell jewelry that is SAFE for your piercing so it is a little more expensive, but its the good quality stuff so its worth it.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff! We had a great experience getting my 15 yr olds piercing.

I had 3 tatoos done by Ariel and she is AMAZING! I will never go to another shop. It was clean with a fun, professional atmosphere. I had a great experience and highly recommend them.

Super happy with my new ink. Great atmosphere

Very clean, friendly efficient people. I highly recommend it. I am very happy with their work and their prices are very reasonable.

Very nice people! Very clean and organized. Had nose piercing done. All in all a good experience will go back!

Best place Ive ever been at. Everyone is very friendly the shop is suoer clean. Im driving in from Dallas every time I want nee work from now on.

I have had two tattoos done at this shop. Richie Jr did a heart awareness ribbon in support of my grandsons heart condition. Josh Napier did my memorial tattoo in memory of my brother. Between the cleanliness, Everyone being friendly, and amazing tattoo artists I would say this is your go to place. I know I wont be going anywhere else. Each Tattoo Artist has their own technique and style that you will be satisfied with. It nice seeing that each of them are supportive towards each other. 100% My favorite place!!!

Ariel did perfect touching up my tat. I love it.

Wonderful, No infections or problems with my ear piercing.

Excellent work very friendly artist was Josh Napier.

Got my belly button pierced by Misty. She did so good, that i barely even felt it. Couldnt believe it. I would definently go back 👍👍

The shop was very clean, and everyone was friendly. Josh Napier did my tattoo, and he is excellent! Very professional, kind, and passionate about his art. I highly recommend him and will be back!

This is were I get my piercings and I refuse to go anywhere else. Everyone here is amazing and get to know you and make sure you are well taken care of

This place was the best place to for anything done. Very friendly and professional staff. Very knowledgeable on what they are doing.

Down to earth people & service...the first time I had my ears gauged,one was higher than the other...And the left one was not centered...This time,this piercer did an awesome & amazing job...$he is a natural...

Very official theyre very good and thanks for the service and safe

I wanted a Labret Piercing 😊 so I went to Misty to have it done, and she was totally awesome at doing it!! 🏆 Love My Labret ❤❤ Misty is the BEST!! 👌🌟🔥🔥🔥🔥 I plan on going back for a Dermal next 😊

Got piercing done. Fast friendly service.

Love the attention to detail and the patience that everyone shows towards others. It can take a little while to get service but only because they are so busy assisting others!

First time getting any piercings done Misty was very professional and made me feel really comfortable since it was my nipples and im very pleased, I’ll definitely go back for for piercings in the future.

I got a new piercing and Misty was awesome

I went for a piercing there; it was my first time ever visiting. It was very clean and nicely setup inside. I had called before to make sure there was a piercer there and I was grateful they were able to fit me in before she left. My piercing was done quick, easily and professionally. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and I noticed that especially as I had never gotten a body piercing before.

Came in to get the other side of my nose pierced, symmetrical to the other side and the piercer did such an amazing job! She spent a long time making sure they were going to be symmetrical from all angles, and the peircing proccess was easy and quick. Very happy with the outcome. Very clean work station and it was reasonably priced. My boyfriend got his ears done and she marked and pierced them with the same amount of thoroughness. Definitely coming here for any future piercings.(They also have amazing prices on jewelry as well)

We came in and got matching tattoos. This was supposed to be a lightning bolt, its less than 2 weeks old. We were the last customer of the night, they wanted to leave to go watch the fight. I didnt feel a thing and I think its obvious I didnt because he dont go deep enough or try. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, great artists. But this was not a good experience. I have about $2k worth of ink on my body and this is the one tattoo I have that I would say isnt worth the $60 charged for less than 5 minutes of time. Definitely not worth the top we left. These two tattoos cost pretip $120, and with corrections will cost $220 minimal. Most expensive item on my body smaller than a quarter, absolutely not worth it.

Disappointed...my friend and I went to get a piercing after she called to make sure we could. We get there and was told they dont do piercing till 6:30 to come back and this was at 5. We went to Happy Dragon and Kevin got us in right away. We love our piercings. Thanks Happy Dragon!

Best place to get knew ink

The environment is relaxed and professional. They have an enormous amount of piercing jewelry [abilene is very limited in options so this was a nice sight]. Their prices are reasonable. Very clean

Fear Factor Tattoos and Piercings is where we go for all our piercings (and tattoos if we got them). They are very friendly and knowledgeable. I couldnt recommend any place more than Fear Factor!!!

Great customer service and artwork by Richie!!Clean and great environment!

Very nice people! My girlfriend got her lip piercing stuck and they were able to fix it for her with no cost and it was extremely fast! It was a lady that helped her and she did a good job! 👍👍👍 - they also have very affordable piercings. Thank you

My daughter got her belly pierced here. They were very quick and professional. It healed very nice with no infection. Very pleased with all service.

First rate shop. Richard had the challenge of fixing my existing tat. Very happy with it. Great environment and cool staff. Ill be back to get some more work done. Highly recommend.

The staff are just awesome! I needed help with a piercing I got out of town and even though it was just before closing time they had me come in and fixed me up! Misty was so helpful and I now know where I will be going locally from now on!

Misty was amazing with my five year old, who was previously terrified to get her ears pierced. She loves them!

I got 5 new piercings one evening and the piercer was so nice and helpful when it came to explaining her placement, ring options once i can change them, and my aftercare instructions. If you want a piercing, I recommend Fear Factor. My total came out to $99. $22 for each cartilage piercing and $33 for the two new lobe piercings. Im so happy with my results and they are healing well.

Im leaving my original review below. I am hurt and mad about a policy regarding touch ups to tats they have done. Especially with Covid going on this year. I got a tat in late June of a cover up. I was told before my session was over that I would need to come in for a touch up because you can still see the cover up and it would be a $20 sitting fee. When I called a few weeks ago, I was told the touch up for $20 had to be done within a month of my tattoo and now would be regular price of a sitting. ($350)... Keep in mind it took me 3 weeks to get on the schedule for a tattoo in the first place... Also, I DO NOT REMEMBER him saying this or I would have went ahead and set an appoint up because we knew it needed a touch up and it already took 3 weeks to get in! I would have made the appointment right then before even leaving as I paid out!!! Plus I had an employee who lost his daughter in a fire the day or so before I got the tat and we had to plan her funeral and fundraiser for her final expenses!!! I have asked for proof I signed something to this affect, but was told it would take weeks for them to find it and Misty sent me a blank one!!! Over all very disappointed and have lost 2 friendships over this with Richard Senior and his wife, Misty, that I have been supporting and recommending their business for well over 10 years from the original tat I bonded with them from Richard senior.. Just disappointed how unprofessional and money hungry they are now... I guess my words below where a facade. They dont care about you Or your tat!!!Original review begins below...Amazing artists, that truly care about your tat and put their heart into their art. Richard gave me a tat almost 10 years ago that is still shining like a Rockstar. Richey gave me a tat a month ago that is out of this world, and he did it freehanded. A true original.

Amazing service!!! I got my daith piercing done in October of last year but unfortunately earlier this year the jewelry came out. So sometime after all this craziness, I gotta come back and get the piercing redone.

I dropped in to get some jewelry changed and the staff was extremely friendly. They have a huge jewelry selection and reasonable prices. The shop is immaculate and has a wonderful Deep Ellum vibe! I won’t be going anywhere else for jewelry or piercings.

Havent gotten a piercing in a long time. Everyone was so nice and professional. The shop is clean, and listened to some music while I waited. They took me walk-in--- Great!

Love this shop. Misty is definitely the best in town. Retail is the best selection you find out here and probably anywhere that isnt just piercing. Richard and Richie are amazing at what they do. Definitely should be anyones next stop for their piercing and tattoo needs.

They always do a great job. Very clean shop and friendly staff. The lady who owns it is super sweet and makes you feel at ease. I wont go anywhere else to get a piercing.

Great shop! Really relaxed! Amazing work! Felt right at home, this is my new tattoo home!

They were great! The day who did my ears was very calming. I was very nervous.

Ian did an amazing job creating an Awesome custom piece!!! I will definitely be going back to him for all my other work in the future! They were very discerning on the placement as well; after all, a great piece of art can look bad if its just slapped on and done.

Richie Jr is the best!

Best place to get pierced. Staff is great and location and atmosphere is super clean!

My sisters and I all got sister tattoos from Richard and he is so good, my mom and cousin loved them so they got one too. The place is so clean and friendly. Wonderful atmosphere. I would recommend this place to everyone I know. Love it!!!

It is very clean and nice

Great place. Everyone was nice, professional and attentive. Ill be going back again!

The best place ever

Very nice place. The people there were really nice and my new tattoo is awesome.

Best tattoos and piercings in town as far as ive been witness to and very professional staff, artists for sure. The Parlor was super clean which is second on my list only after a knowledgeable artist. Overall i will be using Fear Factor for an entire sleeve and back piece.

I got a tattoo from Richard when he worked in a different shop. He is such a good artist. He did things with my tattoo that I hadnt even considered and I was pleasantly surprised. It is one of my favorite tattoos. I also got my nose pierced at Fear Factor. The shop is clean and the staff is very helpful. Ive also seen him do two tattoos other than my own and they are both fantastic. I will be going back to Fear Factor.

Got new hardware

Professional and quick with piercing. Barely felt it.

Clean, professional, doing outstanding work on the tattoo and piercing side. The staff is the shiznit from top to bottom. Highly recommend them as a shop.

Great place very professional people

I love this shop. Theyre very nice, helpful and have great customer service. I went in a for a second tattoo and he went ahead and touched up my first one while I was there. Definitely my go-to tattoo place.

Love this place! Ive had 4 piercings done here and they are professional and clean. They were helpful and knowledgable, as they have a lot of experience! I really wouldnt want to have a tattoo or piercing done elsewhere.

I received a gift of having my ears pierced for my birthday. Everyone was great and friendly. I will highly recommend this shop to people I know.

Love this place

They were so friendly and the shop was VERY clean. They did an awesome job making sure my piercing was going to be in the right place, and were gentle but fast. I definitely will be going back.

I had a good experience, but bad results. I got an industrial piercing on my right ear, and I later had to have it taken out because it was improperly placed and would never heal right. The customer service was great, but I would not recommend this place based on my experience.

Misty Muniz did my sons piercing. Very friendly. Made both of us feel very comfortable!

Richard sr. Gave me an amazing tattoo today on the spot. Awesome place extremely friendly people. Definitely going back for more work.

If you want drilled, Richard can do it. Got a scar and tattoo at same time. His artistic work is good, but definitely heavy handed. Was tattooed on inside of my forearm, on a sunny day you can see the tattoo on the top of my forearm !!!

Got a tattoo the other day and so did my husband, Richard did an amazing job on both. Very professional, entire staff is extremely polite and professional! Highly recommend Fear Factor Tattoo and Piercing.

Professional, clean and spends a decent amount of time going over everything with you before beginning.

Amazing service and really good price. Will definitely be back.

Got 4 piercings from here and was helped out a lot with my jewelry and aftercare. Very nice/comfortable environment and people.

The fear factor crew are a bunch of AMAZING people that do SUPER AMAZING work. This is a must go to place for sure !!!!!!! Plan ahead and book now as they fill up their schedules quite frequently 🤙🤙🤙

The staff is amazing and Misty is the only person in town using quality jewelry. She redid my vertical philtrum and it came out perfect!

One star for effort. Cant say much about the rest. The girl was tweaking so bad she couldnt stand herself. Told me to come back at a certain time. Came back and she was 30 mins late because she got caught up shopping. Got help with a piercing issue I had, but the gauge was smaller than the actual piercing and it got all screwed up. Piercing closed. Would definitely not recommend.

Superior job on tattoos and super clean place good prices any needs one should go there without a doubt

I come here here for all my piercings and jewelry. They are decently priced and always help me pick out cute jewelry that’s also functional and fits me perfectly.

Amazing work done here! Did an awesome job on my portrait looks just like the pic, Richard is very talented!

Got my eye brow pierced nice and clean ppl

I got a tattoo from Fear Factor and I would like to say Thanks and GREAT JOB. I had a wonderful experience at this business, AWESOME customer service and VERY CLEAN shop. I am also VERY PLEASED with both my peircings too.I WOULD RECOMMEND FEAR FACTOR TATTOS TO ALL MY FRIENDS, FAMILY AND EVEN STRANGERS. BEST QUALITY AND CUSTOMERS SERVICE IVE HAD AT A TATTOO SHOP, AND PLAN TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN SOON...THANKS

The couple that owns the shop are my cousins and I have a bar in my ear and Im planning on going back for more because the healed very nicely.

They are absolutely awesome, and Richard Sr. is the best!!!!

The artist are very sweet and it is very clean

Richard is awesome.

Both of my daughters and several of their friends have gotten their noses, ears, and cartilage pierced here. We have never had any trouble at all and love her work!

Got a couple of peircings done here and the lady was so professional about it. I even came back a couple of weeks later and she made sure they were healing correctly 😊

Best place in town for tattos.

Took real good care of me.

Love my piece done by Richard Sr

Got my tongue peirced there and it went great! Clean and quick

Clean Environment and Great Customer Service !
