So so satisfied with my experience getting pierced here! About four months ago, I got the same piercing done incorrectly by a different piercer, so I was a bit nervous to get it done again. Tobias (and the nice person with the pink and blue hair, dont know their name) was super friendly, professional, cleanly, and kind. I felt super comfortable here and the price of the service and jewelry was very reasonable considering quality!

This review is for the online store! Ordered a seam ring. The shipping was super fast, arrived in 4 days later. Packaging was so cute… came in teal box with a holographic bag, nice note and a sticker! I will be sure to make a purchase here next time!

Jen and Tobias are fantastic. Tobias has pierced me many times in 2016 and Jen was piercing me from 2017-2020. The shop has such a wide selection of jewelry and it really helps that Jen can recommend piercings and placement. Wish I still lived in VA just so I could go here.

Went here for my very first piercing(s) after a lot of research. They have quite the waitlist right now, but I do not regret my choice to wait for them. Body modification is not to be taken lightly, no matter how minor, and if you want a piercer who respects proper process as well as the person being pierced, Jen will take wonderful care of you.I was quite nervous to get pierced; could barely sleep the night before. But Jen really set my mind at ease. She walked me through the process every step of the way so I knew exactly what she was doing and when she was doing it, even asking my permission every time she needed to touch me (which meant a lot to me as someone with sensory issues).By the end of her explanation, I was so calm that I barely even felt the actual poke. The shop also has a lot of options for quality titanium and 14k gold studs for new piercings (I *love* mine!), which are precisely what you want for a new piercing to have the best chance of healing cleanly and properly.To top if off, Brilliance is an inclusive and welcoming space for LGBT folks. Theyre required to get your legal name for documentation purposes, but all of their paperwork asks for the name one goes by + their preferred pronouns, which are how everyone in the shop referred to me the entire time I was there.A great experience front to back. Would *highly* recommend.

I haven’t had the honor to get pierced at this studio but I have called, emailed and purchased from them and they are absolutely amazing. They respond promptly and are super friendly! I can’t wait for their books to open up so I can finally book a styling appointment.

Love Jen, she made me so comfortable and before I realized it was done, no pain at all. Bit pricey but totally worthed. Am ready for next piercing at this place.

I had to get a lobe piercing re-pierced because it closed up and Tobias was absolutely amazing! He answered all of my questions with so much patience. The whole place was very clean and neat, and I would love to come back here for more piercings in the future.

:D Im so happy I came here. This was my first ever piercing experience. From the beginning it was great. Keightley answered all my questions and is super positive. Tobias is a piercing angel. They made me feel totally comfortable at each step and made sure I was happy with the placement. Im really grateful for such positive vibes. It turned out better than I even imagined. They have great jewelry selection and very clean facility too!

I just got two piercings (both nipples) done by Tobias at Brilliance, and I couldnt be more thrilled with the entire experience. The shop was spotlessly clean, everyone was very kind, and perhaps most importantly, the piercing itself was done marvelously well. While we waited for the instruments to sanitize, Tobias chatted with me, calmed my nerves, and told me exactly what I should expect. He walked me through precisely how he would do the entire process from start to finish and there were no surprises. He marked the lines and checked with me to make sure I liked the placement. I also got loads of aftercare information and all of my (many) questions were answered patiently and thoroughly. Keightley, who assisted my checkout, also helped me find a nose ring for my sister and even sent me a video to help her place it since they arent currently doing services under the mask. I literally cannot recommend this shop enough.

Love this place! Everyone is welcoming and calming from the moment you walk in. I absolutely love my piercings. I had to get a last minute surgery and they were so understanding and scheduled me to get a glass post to put in so my piercing wouldn’t close. It is also very clean with tons of jewelry options. Highly recommend!

I have nothing negative to say about this place, I dont thinking Ill ever get my ears pierced anywhere else ever again if its not here. Shoutout to Tobias for being super cool and informative as well❤❤❤❤

Another 5-star experience at Brilliance Piercing. Love everything about this place...the staff, the jewelry selection, the personalized experience and Jen is the bomb!

Lovely, bright piercing studio with lovely, bright people! Just had some jewelry replaced and will be back next week with my 7 year old to get her ears pierced.

I am a web order customer from halfway across the country. My experience here could not be better. Ive placed 3 orders now from them and each one was quickly shipped and arrived on time in secure packaging with a personal touch and a handwritten note on the packing slip. Their system for communicating order/shipping status is amazing. The jewelry itself is my first experiment after 3 years of letting my ears recover from sub-par jewelry that promised to be hypo allergenic but led to rash, inflammation, and infection. NO ISSUES AT ALL with this. It has stayed in for weeks with not even the slightest irritation or discomfort. I would trust anything I get from the store.The customer service is also top notch. I did have one of my orders ship with wrong size earring and within 24 hours a replacement was on its way with tracking info at no cost and no hassle whatsoever.Cannot say enough good about this business.

Tobias has the hands of an angel baby. He is so calming, warm, and friendly— he will put you right at ease. He guides you through the process with great kindness and he’s just a master of his craft. The pain is minimal to none and I’m pretty much the biggest wimp lol. Honestly, these past two trips were hands down the best piercing experiences ever. The whole staff is amazing, too. Great selection of jewelry. Just the best place. I’m already on the wait list for my third appt :D

Thanks tobias! really thoughtful about what jewelry i wear/would want to wear. very careful to make sure the piercings were symmetrical. whole process was really quick and professional!

Everyone there was SO nice and friendly! Tobias was knowledgeable and extremely informative during each step of my piercing and stretching. The whole experience kept me at ease even though a needle was being pushed through me. Plus, their jewelry selection is the BEST!!

Came in for a anti-tragus piercing two years ago. Initially I picked what I was told was an Anatometal ring, before catching myself and remembering that based off what I read, I should start with a barbell. They insisted that was not right so I went for the ring. Two years and counting the piercing has still not healed. I know these piercing in particular can be tricky, so I tried not read too much into it, but went to another piercer who took one look at my ear and immediately said the ring was too tight and cant heal because of the irritation bumps. They also said that they should have not started me off with that for a new piercing. Feels very piercing 101 to me, so I think they were trying to make a sell on the ring that costs me over $200. Also want to flag that the new piercer said the piece I bought was likely gold plated, and not real gold. Really upsetting given how expensive it was. Had a way better experience for $30. Writing this review after reaching out twice via email and hearing nothing. In my honest opinion, its not worth it. There are great piercers charging way less who wont take advantage of customers.

I LOVE Brilliance. I got 3 piercings today and they all look so dainty! Jen totally got my vision and guided me through each piercing. I can’t believe how little it hurt and I know they’re going to heal smoothly. COVID protocol was excellent.

I came here to adjust the post of my threadless jewelry as my tragus piercing had healed. I also have cartilage piercings that needed new jewelry. People are welcoming, friendly. They practice COVID precautions, just be sure you do your part as well. The place is exceptionally clean. Beautiful jewelry and lots to pick from. Tobias was great, informative, and had a very light touch when handling my piercings. He knew exactly what kind of jewelry exchange I needed just by looking at them. I would definitely come here again!

I saw Jen for my piercing and she was very kind and professional. She talked me though the whole process before starting. I love that they only use good/ high quality jewelry. They have TONS of options to choose from. I wanted to get pierced by someone that was part of the APP as to be sure my piercing would be correct, in the right place, less chances of infection and rejection. So glad they’re here!!I’ll also add that with COVID they’re very on top of everything!!

I have gotten pierced by 4 different piercers in my life and this was by far the best experience. The cleanliness of the space and how safe they are with the jewelry/procedure was well beyond what Ive seen at other places. While I thought that the price was more than others, I realized that it was the quality of the jewelry and the piercer herself. Jen pierced my daith and this was the least painful piercing Ive ever had. The healing has been easy, probably due to how well it was pierced and how clean everything was, and I can easily say that it was worth every dollar and more! If you want a professional piercing with guaranteed good, safe (all are hypoallergenic), and unique jewelry options then this is your place!

Absolute best piercing experience ever; from the moment they came to retrieve me from my car in observance of covid protocols, to the actual procedure with Tobias who was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and gentle, to the moment I walked out the door. Warm, welcoming and professional; I honestly felt like I was in the midst of long time friends. Huge inventory of jewelry ranging from high end to things that suited my budget and most importantly, I wasnt made to feel as if I wasnt a valuable patron because I had a limited budget. They are currently utilizing a waitlist procedure to schedule clients due to covid and Ive already added myself to the list for my next piercing.

I got a rook piercing in December 2019 and I have to say that I was blown away! The shop was clean, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The staff was super friendly and helpful. There was an amazing jewelry selection for all price ranges. Jen, who did my piercing and swapped out my nose jewelry for me, was very kind, professional, and extraordinarily skilled. 10/10, the best piercing studio in the area!

I got a triple cartilage piercing all of them were unevenly spaced and crocked after spending 300$ at the shop I had to take 2 of the 3 out because they weren’t going to heal properly. Any piercing not done straight risks infection and the growth of keloids which happened to all 3. The prices are outrageous for titanium up charging almost 50$ per piece of jewellery. They also use many unnecessary steps to clean the jewellery and sanitise the perching spot. This allows for more bacteria to form and it’s just for show. Any piercer who knows what they are doing won’t pierce more than 1 place in the cartilage area in a row due to the likeness of it swelling and making the piercings uneven. I advise anyone in the area to steer clear of this place and find somewhere cheeper. Lucky 13 in Richmond only costs 20$ per piercing with jewellery included and I have never had any issues with their quality. I wish I had known about them before I trusted brilliance with 300$.

My family has known Jen for a very long time! Shes the only person in the area we trusted to pierce our daughters nose. Super friendly and helpful staff, great selection of jewelry, and pricing that cant be beat! Highly recommend considering Brilliance as your first stop if you or a family member needs a piercing.

I remember being really nervous to first get pierced but after finding Brilliance I now sit at seventeen piercings, fifteen of which Jen has performed. I am beyond happy with how they have all turned out; the placement is very well done with the overall piercing procedure having been very smooth and professional. Because of the grade of the jewelry, the healing process isnt much of a hassle at all. Even so, there are yet many more things done well at this practice, one, being a feeling of comfort. The staff is extremely welcoming and kind to people of all colors, genders, sexualities, shapes and sizes. The jewelry used for piercings is completely hypoallergenic and biocompatible (implant grade titanium, a metal they offer here, is used for surgical/medical implants). Jen is experienced, capable of answering each of the dozens of questions Ive asked about being pierced. Jen also communicates thoroughly, asking for consent and building trust with you as a client throughout the piercing process. If youre nervous or anxious, she will make sure you are comfortable and well taken care of. The needles, jewelry, everything, is extremely sanitary - the only thing that catches people off guard is the price. Because it is a reputable and professional institution, you pay for Jens expertise along with the quality of the jewelry, all of which are precious metals. It is so worth it. :)

Knowledgeable, clean, professional, great selection of jewelry, comfortable. The only place ill go to get pierced and buy jewelry! Jen is the best!

Ive had two great piercing experiences at Brilliance with both Jen and Tobias! The shop is very sanitary and the new COVID practices made it feel even safer. Highly recommend!

I love brilliance piercing so so much! everyone who works their is so sweet and welcoming. They do such a good job with spacing and they even ask u where u want it, how close together, etc. They have a huge selection of jelewrey and its a great variety. It is more expenice than clairs, etc. But they do such a better job its worth it. I got my third piercing from them today and i am beyond happy with the results. I recomend for all its amazing.

I had a wonderful experience here! Everything was very clean and they have a wonderful selection of jewelry. Jen took time to make sure I was happy with the placement of my piercings. By the second day, I wasnt in any pain. I highly recommend Brilliance.

My daughter has been looking forward to getting her second ear piercing for at least 3 years now. So when I finally decided she could get it for her birthday, I wanted to make sure it was done properly. After much research, I decided on Brilliance Piercing. This was the best decision for us. The studio reminds me of a day spa...very relaxing and calm. They offered many different styles of quality jewelry which was perfect because my daughter has sensitive skin. Once we selected a pair, they actually cleaned the earrings along with the tools that were being used for the piercing. Jen explained each step of the process to help ease any anxiety my daughter had. The actual piercing was completed with minimal pain and I have ome happy daughter. I absolutely recommend Jen at Brilliance Piercing for your piercing needs.

A hidden gem! Brilliance is clean and inviting. Jen is phenomenal. She takes her time and works with you to get you exactly what you want. Not pushy and truly genuine. I was in the shop when she was piercing a childs ears and wow!! Just hearing her talk to her and walk her though the process and made sure she was comfortable was incredible. Would 100% recommend.

Awesome piercing place, best in the area by far. The ladies are so friendly and knowledgeable about their jewelry and all piercings. The shop is bright and welcoming and very clean, so you feel very comfortable and sure of the quality of your piercing experience. The costs are well worth it for such a great piercing experience and having assurance they will help you out with any (unlikely) issues you encoubter even after the piercing. Love this place!

Jen, Tobias, Elizabeth, and Keightley are the best people ever. I will never go anywhere else as long as they are around!

Perfect place for piercing. I have been many other places for my nose piercing, but I got an infection every time. But when I did pierce at this place, my nose healed in a day. I am super satisfied. I will do my ear piercing at this place as well.

Very impressed with how professional everyone was. Very attentive and caring. Really great place. Super clean. Not to mention extremely reasonable pricing

Jen runs an amazing piercing shop. She is welcoming, competent and delightful to work with. Her store is exceptionally clean and decorated to promote a professional and calm environment. She carries a wide variety of jewelry and hardware from amazing artists. The piercing process was quick, sterile and very well discussed with us in detail. I really enjoyed getting to know her and was impressed with how lovely her shop is! I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for piercings - children or adults. She is excellent.

Jen and staff are incredible. They truly care about you and work to ensure you have the perfect piercing and jewelry. Jen even customized a piece for me! Their jewelry selection is perfectly curated and there is a lot to choose from. Pricing is definitely reasonable. Definitely felt cared for, loved the environment and atmosphere. Will be a client for a long time.

Great place for a piercing!

Jen is the most competent piercer I know. She always looks out for my best interests and gave me exactly what I needed. I recently went to two other piecers to remove my septum ring and Jen was the only piercer who could get it out safely and with absolute concern for my needs. I got my septum sized up and my earring replaced and she did a fantastic job. I would recommend Brilliance Piercing to anyone thinking about getting pierced.

I had an amazing experience getting my septum pierced by Jen about a month ago. The whole place is clean, professional, and beautiful! The vibe is almost like a spa, light blue themed and bright. Lots of free parking too :)Jen is a member of the Association of Professional Piercers, so she knows what shes doing and is very clean and explains every step and is always checking in to see how youre doing. She helped me pick out jewelry that would be easy to flip up for work and explained all how to do it. When I had a question a few days after piercing, Jen answered my email promptly. When I had questions before getting pierced, she also answered all my email questions.Definitely get the saline wipes! They have been incredibly helpful for cleaning my piercing when I last minute need to flip it.I cant recommend this place enough. Its over an hour drive for me, but completely worth it.

Got my first earlobe piercings here. Staff was kind, sweet, welcoming, and understanding. The place was clean and filled with all kind of jewelry for piercings which I found impressive. I think needles are safer than using piercing gun from what people have told me . It is expensive compared to going Claires but I feel like the price was worth it. Jen is amazing. Even though I am an adult, I was obviously nervous about getting pierced for the first time- she treated me well. I will definitely come back for future piercings.

Jen and her team are extremely knowledgeable about safe and best piercing practices and are incredibly patient when it comes to answering questions or explaining what piercings will work best or wont for your body. Ive gotten my daith, lobes, and tragus done here and they healed perfectly and quickly after. Plus, their jewelry selection is gorgeous!

Nice people. Very clean and sanitary. Excellent aftercare instructions.

First of all my ear looks amazing! Thank you to Jen! She is very knowledgeable about piercings. She walked me through each of my piercings ( forward helix, conch) and explained how she was going to pierce the area. I was a little nervous but she made me feel at ease. Jen and her employee were very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend anyone looking to get curated ears to come here. I drove over an hour and it was worth it!

Had a piercing done by another local company and was at the hands of their knowledge. In reading on line for this type it is bad to go too deep. When I was pierced... they went too deep. A week later the swelling had gone down and it was evident that it was too deep. Decided to have a consolation with Jen she gave GREAT information but let me choose what to do without pressure. With all the great information I had decided to remove it and allow to heal. Today returned to have it redone.To start the appointment it was just something totally different. Oh the decisions! I was surprised that I could choose my jewelry! Barbell and balls, AWESOME! For the piercing Jen was STELLAR! Really cared about the piercing and made the experience one to remember. I was thrilled to get this once again!THANK YOU BRILLIANCE PIERCING! I will recommend them to ANYONE for a piercing or consultation!

Amazing people skills. JEN you are wonderful! BEST customer service skills and awesome experience in your shop. The jewelry selection here is incredible! So many gorgeous and various ornate options for all types of different piercings and anatomies! I will most definitely be returning here for a piercing and to get some more bling as soon as possible! Loved everything about this place. It was easy to get to from 495 coming from MD. Definitely worth the drive for me!!!!! ♡ -Giulia

Jen has a nice selection of implant grade jewelry and beautiful gold, the piercing environment and practices are super hygienic and Jen is a highly skilled piercer as well as being a very personable human! The shop is bright and welcoming and the counter staff friendly and knowledgeable.If you are a parent you want the best for your kids. Why go to the mall and risk your child’s health with unsanitary piercing guns, and badly placed uneven piercings to save a buck?As an adult I appreciate Jen’s skill and taste! My piercings are healthy, perfectly placed, and my jewelry is unique.

What an extremely positive experience! My first piercing and I found Jen to be super informative, really personable and open to answering all questions. Her shop was immaculate and had a great vibe. I was comfortable from the first step to the very end. I also thought pricing, including jewelry, was really reasonable.

Jen is great! Made me feel super comfortable and clearly very knowledgeable about her work! Love my nose piercing 😊

I have highly sensitive ears so I decided try Brilliance Piercing. Jen pierced my ear. She was great and definitely knows what shes doing! She handled my ears with care and explained the process as she went. So why three stars...I paid for expensive gold earrings that broke on the first day I was able to finally take them out. Im now unable to wear my $180 earrings. The earrings are WAY over priced but they wont let you bring your own. Service is 5 stars but jewelry quality and price are 0 stars.

I love getting pierced at Brilliance. I highly recommend going there :)

Incredibly clean, professional, and knowledgeable. The piercing place I typically go to is in Atlanta, so when my threadless nostril piercing was almost completely ripped through, I had no idea where to go.Brilliance Piercing was recommended to me, so I drove an hour to get here - I’m so glad I did. From initial phone call to check out I knew I was being very well taken care of. Highly recommend.

Jen is great! She is one of the only people I could find in northern VA who is APP (Assoc for Professional Piercers) certified. She uses sterile technique, she uses high quality jewelry, she explains everything at multiple levels. I took one daughter for her second lobe piercing and she loved Jen. I took another daughter for a cartilage piercing and she loved her. Her storefront is immaculate and welcoming. I spoke to her 4 separate times prior to our piercings and she was friendly, patient and helpful each time. I would recommend her without hesitation!Adding to this review that 4 weeks post piercings, no complications. Post-care was simple and required no twisting of earrings, just daily rinsing with water in the shower.

Very clean and excellent service for my daughter. She was very relaxed b/c the staff were phenomenal and left with beautiful ear piercings.

Jen was knowledgeable and kind even though I was a bit of a wimp this time around. I didn’t catch the front of the shop lady’s name, but she was also super sweet. Everything was cleaned and sterilized right in front of me, and they both kept up a steady stream of delightful conversation to assuage my nerves. When it was over, they handed me a juice box, which was the best aftercare ever.I will definitely be returning to Brilliance for future piercings!

First timer! Jen was exceptional. She and I spoke prior to my visit, and she made me feel more comfortable once I arrived. She was very personal, explained step-by-step what to expect, asked my permission to touch certain parts where she planned to pierce (tragus) and showed me the certain tools she intended to use prior to the piercing. Jen was truly a gem and I will if I decide on a second piercing:)

After great hesitation and anxiety due to factors about piercings in general like sanitary, pain and aesthetics, I finally mustered my courage to get my nose pierced from Jen. I did my homework and researched many places and their reviews and settled for Jen after reading her stellar reviews. And I can tell you - I found every word to be true and then some. Jen has an immaculate place, is passionate about her work and profession and it shows in her business, her patience, her high standards of hygiene and her work. I got my nose pierced on 1/12 and the process was smooth painless and it has healed beautifully. I highly recommend her and have already referred her to many of my friends.

My daughter (8 yo) and I got our ears pierced here in January. We had an amazing experience and were incredibly impressed by the service and staff. Highly recommend Brilliance Piercing especially for children. It’s 100% worth the cost—the healing process was so easy.

Brilliance is clean and inviting. Jen is great .got my first nose pierced she answered any question I had & all the jewelry are sooo!! Nice, can’t wait to go back to when it’s Time to change my pieceWould recommend for sure !

I had Jen for my nostril piercing, and she was amazing! Seriously she was so patient, she answered all my questions, she asked me before she did everything and made sure I was ok every step of the way, which was so helpful. I cant wait for my piercing to heal up, she did a wonderful job.

I had never gotten anything other than my lobes pierced before and I went to Brilliance Piercing to get my cartilage pierced. Jen was great, she told me everything that was going to happen and she explained the placement of the piercing to me. She was very informative and she didnt use a gun to pierce my ear which is great because of how dangerous they can be. Overall, it was definitely a great place to get my first piercing and if I ever plan on getting another one it would be there.

Jen pierced my 7yo daughters ears. She talked my daughter through it, and my daughter actually enjoyed the experience. We followed her very low-maintenance care instructions, and she had no issues and healed perfectly even though she has sensitive skin. Jen also did a nose piercing for my relative who is a doctor, and she verified that Jen did all the right things as far as cleanliness/sterilization is concerned. I highly recommend Brilliance. A side note: the jewelry is more expensive here than a place like Claires that you might take your kid to, but its because she uses primarily Titanium jewelry which is expensive but you are so much less likely to have issues with it.

Quality of jewelry: superb. She has a wide range of BVLA.Jen is excellent with customer service and satisfaction. She takes the piercing experience to a different level with how comfortable she makes you feel. Definitely calmed my nerves when I came in to get septum piercing and ended up with a septum and each side of my nose pierced as well! Healed beautifully. Will be back for more 😊😊😘

This place is cute, clean, bright, friendly, welcoming, and not intimidating. Jen is absolutely wonderful and is clearly great at what she does. I got a surface piercing from her and she talked me through every step and was very helpful and patient with me. Her shop is adorable and in a very easy-to-access location.

From the moment I called to book an appointment I knew this was the right place. Very professional yet friendly, the ladies who work here make you feel super welcomed and comfortable. The location is certainly very clean and inviting one of the best piercing shops I ever been too!

I love Brilliance Piercing! Definitely the best piercing place I’ve been to. I can’t wait to come back!

Jen is so skilled, professional, and welcoming. I have over 10 piercings from various places but none of them compare to my experience at brilliance. Its so bright and clean, and she is patient and the jewelry selection is fantastic. I have a metal allergy, so I had to take out many of my other piercings, but I have had no problems with the piercings and jewelery I have gotten from Brilliance.It is pricier than other shops but if you have a metal allergy, like great customer service, and want to pick top quality jewelery to be pierced with- this is THE place to go.

Jen was absolutely divine, we were mildly late and she took it perfectly in stride. It was my first piercing and she walked me through every item, and showed me the sterilization process. She even talked about her pets to make me more comfortable! The pain was very minimal, no blood and very little redness. I’ve heard that the earlobes commonly throb after piercing, this did not occur with me. It was over in about two seconds. More professional than I could have hoped, and beautiful selection of earrings, there were at least 60 options. I adore my new earrings, thank you!

There is a little bait and switch going on here. They only allow you to use their own jewelry for piercing which is overpriced and of low quality.If you are ok with that - you will be fine. Otherwise they treat you like a third class citizen.On their website the price for ear piercing is $50, but after you have been forced to buy their jewelry (the cheapest kind is $60) the total comes up to $110. You will only find that out when you come to the shop.

Jen was incredibly helpful and kind when I came in with an unexpected piercing emergency (new ear piercing lodged in my ear lob). I got my second piercing done at Piercing Pagoda, which was a huge mistake because it got infected & caused an allergic reaction. The store is super clean and cute; the atmosphere minimizes your anxiety and is very welcoming. I was nervous about how she was planning on fixing my lodged earring. I thought she was going to have to re-pierce my ear or even make an incision to get it out, but she just shoved it through the hole. It was surprisingly quick and the pain was manageable. Jen was very sweet the whole time, making sure I was comfortable and okay through the process. Afterwards, she gave me post-care procedures to help with the infection. The whole ordeal took about 10 minutes. I had a more than pleasant experience here and will definitely return for all my piercing needs!!

Jen, the owner and piercer, was great! She gave suggestions on which earring would look best for what I wanted. She’s very nice and good at what she does. Her boutique is clean, organized, and comfortable. She walks you through the process and makes an effort to connect with you. I look forward to come back for my next piercing!

I had a great peircing experience today at Brilliance Piercing. I first found Jen through the Association of Professional Piercers, and you can go see for yourself that she adheres to the strictest standards of health and safety. Jen is an amazing piercer who is easy to talk to, listens to the customer, clearly answers questions, and explains the piercing steps in detail as you go through the procedure. Im very happy with the experiences Ive shared with Jen and I will be visiting her again in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a professional piercer.

I love this place. I went yesterday and I got my ears pierced by Jen. She answered all my questions and was extremely helpful. She gave me great advice on how to make my ears stay healthy. I extremely recommend this place!

So Far Ive gotten two piercings there from Jen and shes amazing! she makes you feel very comfortable and knows what shes doing. Everything is very sanitary, and its a very nice place to go if youre looking to get your ears pierced for the first time AND if youre trying to get something a little bit more..Lets just say unique..😉 its just nice to have a wholesome place to go right in the heart of Vienna and they do a great job theyre running it. Jen and Keatley are freakin awesome!Britt

Jen is amazing and professional. She explains the entire process so you know what is going on and is very considerate of your comfort level. When originally shopping around for what I wanted to get pierced a lot of shops in the area never seemed to answer (phone or email) or had an attitude about my questions. Jen answered immediately and was extremely helpful right from the beginning. Last the prices are very reasonable here for service and jewelry. Brilliance Piercing was originally not going to be my first pick for getting things peirced since it was far from where I was coming from (on the Maryland side) but I am so glad I ended up going here. It was absolutely worth it and if I ever get anything pierced again I would definitely go here again!

Jen gets five stars in my book any day. She is gentle, explains her procedures, and makes you feel comfortable and welcome in her shop. I hope that she is here to stay. I will be returning to get more jewelry and possibly more piercings.

Absolutely wonderful. Very personable and professional. I got a second forward helix done and the experience was night and day from the first one I got at another studio. The pain was very minimal in comparison and she was so fast it was over before I knew it.

She’s the only piercer I go to. Excellent skills and jewelry. Pricing may be higher than what you see at some other places but it’s not expensive. You’re getting a professional, sterile experience with the best jewelry available. She could charge a lot more for her quality and I’d still only come to her. You’re not gonna find someone else on her level around this area. We’ve all seen those piercers that operate out of some back room hole of a tattoo shop. I love that her shop is hers and the focus is piercing. There’s no place like Brilliance Piercing. Stop hesitating and go see Jen!

Clean, bright facility with friendly staff.

Jen was very nice a polite, she eased my nerves with small talk. The employees were so sweet and made my visit enjoyable! I love my nose piercing :)

This is THE place in Northern VA to get piercings and jewelry. Jen is the absolute best, not only at piercing but also at walking clients through options and making sure they are going to be completely happy with their piercings and jewelry. All that and a FANTASTIC selection of jewelry. Go here, you wont regret it.

I was extremely impressed with Jen and this studio. I brought my daughter for a cartilage piercing, and Jen could not have been more professional or kind in answering my questions and making my daughter feel comfortable. The studio was immaculate and welcoming and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

They were soooo sweet! I went in to buy new jewelry and there a ton of options. They even put the jewelry in for me!

Jen was amazing! She answered all of my questions, helped me weigh my jewelry options, and genuinely made me feel super comfortable! Definitely recommend going to her over any other options in the area! Also looking forward to seeing her at my local rock gym!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience getting my cartilage pierced. Everything was extremely sterile and the piercer was very patient and helpful. The shop itself has a great ambiance and great selection of jewelry. Overall great experience.

Jen is amazing. Her studio is clean, she explained everything and shes gentle. Id had problems for years with a piercing and Jen got me all fixed up with almost no pain and its back to normal. The best!

Jen really took the time to understand the problems I had with ear piercings in the past and explained what I needed to do differently to avoid it happening again. Shop was super clean with beautiful jewerly. Much better experience than getting it done in a tattoo shop. Nothing against tattoo artists but I like that Jen and her shop specialize in piercings.

I had such a fantastic experience here!!! Can’t wait to come back. Clean, friendly, precise - can’t ask for more than that! Highly recommend.

Excellent customer service, friendly, helpful and super clean. What a gem! I will be coming back. Their variety of jewelry is beautiful.

Jen is awesome!!! Very clean and sanitary. Walked through whole process and very simple. Nice jewelry selection.

Jenn does a great job. Place is super clean. Classy too.

This is in regards to my piercing date as of 5/11/18, on this very day.I had walked into Brilliance piercings and made an appointment (which is highly recommended) and was surprised at how this place, had been organized. It seemed like a nice, surrene and peaceful environment.When I had met Jen, she was really nice and very friendly! Even throughout the whole process I had never doubted her for a moment. Jen makes sure the client gets what they like, and also the process is more or less a quick pinch! (I got my earlobes done x2 and it was pretty fast)Jen does tell you about the process, marks the placement on the specific piercing area (to see if you’re happy with it) and it just takes a matter of time!There’s a wide variety of jewelery. I’m so glad I did not get my second ones done with a piercing gun! It’s not worth the risk!I am so happy with my visit! I will come again later along the road! Thank you!(Bonus for the Parks and Rec crochet! ☺️)

I love this place so much, i love their selection and its all good quality and the staff is so nice and helpful, love that i can come in and get my jewelry changed as well, a lovely shop(:

Great jewlery selection, good pricing, and super friendly staff

I went to Jen for a daith piercing and am super happy I did! Her studio is immaculate and tastefully decorated, and she has a beautiful selection of jewelry. I love piercings and jewelry, but have terrible anxiety about needles and have fainted more than once in my life from blood draws and one other piercing (done by a different piercer). Jen is patient, personable, and professional, quick and efficient, and I had zero queasiness or light-headedness. The piercing and jewelry placement took less than 15 seconds. I highly recommend Jen and plan to return to her studio for more piercings.

Amazing place. Jen is kind, helpful and through. Everything is very sterile, clean and pretty. Great that it feels like a true jewelry store out front, with a nice private peircing room in back.

I found Jen on Yelp and was impressed with the reviews. It was definitely worth the short drive from Woodbridge. She explained the whole process and she was finished before I knew it. Shes very professional and wouldnt hesitate to return for any future piercings.

Jen was great piercing my daughter’s ears. She’s so knowledgeable and made her feel so comfortable. Highly recommend!
