Impressive, professional and also very helpful. They are truthful about what will & wont work for your anatomy, while being mindful of your personal vision. They are the gentlest and most relaxing piercers Ive known. They honor the time they spend with you and treat you like a person. (Not always true of studios with the old school body mod vibe.)True quality work and jewelry that is outstanding! The gold & gems make their piercings unique and custom. Trust them, you WILL NOT be disappointed!

Would definitely recommend this place! Everything was very clean and Tyler was super nice and professional! I got my septum pierced and I absolutely love it, it’s healing very well too!

I had my septum pierced today by Tyler! I had a couple of people recommend him to me and after following him on Instagram, I could tell he was passionate about piercing and making sure people loved it! I was so happy I got to experience his passion today! He was very communicative during the whole experience, talking about what he was doing and doing next and why. It was very refreshing to see someone care so much. He was so kind and made it so fun! Thank you, Tyler!

Got my nose pierced there today and had a great experience. Tyler was super thorough and explained everything in detail. He was super friendly and really brought up the atmosphere. He did a great job with the piercing and walked me through it. Everything was super neat and clean, and prices aren’t bad. Great place to get piercings done!

I’ve been going to Mint exclusively for my jewelry since 2017. Recently i needed to have retainers put in for a procedure I needed done. Tyler was ready before I got there with everything sterilized and ready to go. I was in and out in less then ten minutes. He also kept my pieces and polished them up for me so when I came back for a reinsert they were looking like the day I bought them. Staff is always phenomenal!! Always clean, always full of information! Thank you Tyler and Leo for making this interaction so easy!!!

Nothing but the best to say about Tyler and his team. They went above and beyond to service me.I came back after my piercing to change jewelry but they immediately noticed my piercing wasnt healing properly. They didnt even charge anything and instead gave me their number to update them on my situation. After my healing, I consulted them on my jewelry change in an arduous process that I no doubt made more difficult trying to find the piece I want. They replied to everything I was asking and were even kind enough to make room for an appointment just a couple days before I had to leave town in their busy schedule.You get what you pay for here and then some with quality products and great service!

Tyler is EXCEPTIONAL! Amazing customer service, so kind, & he went above & beyond for me. Will never go anywhere else for piercings!

Tyler was awesome! I hadn’t had a piercing since high school and Tyler took the time to help me find the right placement and walked me through the healing process. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for a piercing! Clean, professional, genuinely kind people & an awesome jewelry selection. Thank you!

Ive been here several times and every experience has been exceptional. They do great work in a beautiful and clean environment. I will only be going to MINT for my future piecing needs and recommending them to everyone.

Very clean, nice place! Very professional person we worked with but also personable enough to put us at ease. We had a great experience! Its best to get your paperwork done online, if required. Appointments are done online as well. Very easy website to navigate.

Tyler did a great job! He was super nice, talked me through everything, and made me feel super comfortable! He also gave me multiple earring options to help me stay within budget. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a new piercing!

Tyler did my piercing he was absolutely amazing he was patient talked me through all of the care and why every single piece of care is in important he also helped me pick out the right jewelry that fit with my ear anatomy talk me through the entire piercing process he was an absolute awesome guy. I would recommend mint piercing to anybody and everybody in Iowa and I know I will be going back and using them again

Did an AMAZING job on my septum piercing! I went in with my septum pierced from Lucky Gal in Ankeny and they pierced it too low and it was causing a lot of pain. I stopped in at Des Moines and Tyler had taken a look at my piercing and said he would re do it and pierce it correctly in my soft spot. It didn’t hurt what so ever after ward where compared to when I got it pierced in Ankeny at Lucky Gal it hurt so bad! Tyler had great customer service and was so very friendly! I love mint and my piercings!

Tyler is amazing! I got my conch done by them and I am obsessed with it! Its had some trouble healing and they have offered good suggestions and guidance so I can downsize soon! Tyler has also given suggestions to help my botched navel and its scarring so I can get it redone. Mint’s services are more pricey than others around town but it’s 100% worth the money for the level of care and customer service they provide.

Absolutely freaking amazing! Tyler took his time and made me feel less anxious about the piercing. High quality jewelry and such a personable experience. I highly recommend this place. Seriously though, stop searching and just book your appointment. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks, Tyler!

I got a labret done elsewhere in Des Moines. The experience was sub par and I was having trouble with the jewelry. It ended up coming out (after the other piercer put it in two separate times) and closed up a little overnight. I called Mint and they got me in right away to look at it and give a second opinion. Leo was AWESOME, personable and Im SO happy with the result of my revamped piercing. He was knowledgable and made me feel very comfortable. I wont go anywhere else now.

I went to Mint for the first time and being a piercing junkie I didn’t know what I was in for! But it was something great for sure. Tyler was my piercer and not only was he professional, he was SO friendly and SO kind. He was able to make sure I felt comfortable and was very safe with the whole COVID situation (extra face mask protection)! I got my septum pierced and he did an AMAZING job. Worth the price and worth the look. Going back to Tyler for sure. Highly recommend!!

Tyler is incredible! He pierced my septum a couple weeks ago and did an incredible job! He was conversational and made me feel super comfortable during my appointment! Worth the drive from Iowa City!

This is a fantastic place to get a piercing. On a whim, I decided to get my nose pierced six weeks ago - the online booking was so convenient, and the shop is super clean and professional. It’s evident they have gone above and beyond to make it safe in the COVID era.Tyler was my piercer and was great at explaining everything to me. The piercing itself was smooth and has healed beautifully. Plus I’ve twice taken advantage of the free check-up appointments they offer, and have been so pleased with how helpful Tyler continued to be. Thank you!!!

Tyler was AMAZING. He evaluated my ear anatomy and helped me decide on what would look and feel best. He’s super kind and personable, too. He made the entire experience so comfortable and I recommend him 100%

Leo and janessa are the best in the business. quality jewelry. clean environment. i wouldn’t go anywhere else. leo pierced my septum yesterday and i was a little nervous but he made the whole process super easy and comfortable. love you guys!

Tyler is AMAZING! Went here for a septum piercing today and I could not have left happier. The experience was wonderful, Tyler was awesome and professional, and the actual piercing was incredibly well done. Just an overall fantastic experience-will definitely be coming back!!

Had a great experience with Tyler today! I had to go in to get help removing a piercing from another shop that got stuck in my ear. Tyler was so helpful and informative about the process, looked at all my other piercings and removed what needed to be removed, gave me detailed instructions for aftercare and healing, let me know I could text/call if I had any problems after I left, and let me know I could come back in about a month or so to get them done right :) Plus, they were able to get me in so fast! Definitely thankful for them today and can’t wait for these holes to heal up so I can finally get them done. Thanks Tyler!

Thanks for my super cute new earring, I love it.

A little spendy, but its clean and high quality with great customer service.

Tyler was amazing with my daughter and myself. We got to do back-2-back appointments. Witch was very nice. My daughter was a little scared and he was great with her. He talked to her the whole time and help keep her calm. I highly recommend this place. Thanks Tyler 😊

Mint was recommended to me by an old friend who has done most of my other piercings, so before I even walked in the door I knew this was going to be a quality shop. Leo pierced my septum and exceeded my expectations! I was frankly a little nervous and freaked myself out before walking in. But right after entering the studio Leo put me at ease, answered all of my questions, and explained the process. The experience was practically painless! Let’s just say he did such a good I keep forgetting it’s even there and it’s only been three days. Oh and the jewelry! I had an idea of what I wanted and they just so happen to have exactly that in stock! Even though it was a little pricier then what I had planned I got just what I wanted and won’t have to change jewelry anytime soon. Don’t let that scare you away though, I haven’t had a new piercing since piercing shops started carrying truly quality pieces. However, I believe they carry jewelry for an array of people and their wallets. Thanks Leo!

Tyler was very nice and helpful with my helix piercing!

Leo was so amazing! Super friendly, and professional! Very clean place! Would definitely go here again! Highly recommend!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!! Amazing experience, great prices, clean workspace, beautiful decor, and professional staff. Tyler helped me today and he knew what he was doing. I had a piercing that I thought closed and I was looking to get redone- he knew off the bat that he could probably reopen it without re-piercing it. He saved me $65 for not needing to get it pierced again!! They definitely know what they are doing here and are super honest good working people. The jewelry is gorgeous and well priced, the atmosphere is chill, and the staff is awesome. I loved my experience and I will be recommending this place to my friends, as well as coming back for any future piercings!!

Tyler was amazing!! He explained everything he was doing, and was very quick and precise about the piercings. He was extremely personable and professional, and I just had a great experience overall. The establishment was also very clean and tidy which made it a very comfortable environment. I definitely recommend Mint!

Tyler was AWESOME! He made me feel so comfortable and at ease during my appointment. He took the time to explain everything about the piercing thoroughly and answered all of my questions. The studio was immaculate. I would recommend this studio to everyone in the Des Moines area or anyone willing to travel for great quality work!

This is the only place I would ever go again! 2 weeks ago I walked in on a Tuesday night and got fit in a short time for a consultation with Tyler. He was professional, friendly, and knew what he was talking about. The first opening he had was the next day so I didn’t mind coming back since I knew he had the experience I wanted and he gave me great advice to get both of the piercings I wanted at the same time to reduce the long term healing time. My piercings are beautiful and perfectly placed, they are healing perfectly with the instructions he gave me, and I’m so glad I took his advice. Beautiful jewelry, super clean shop, expert experience, friendly people. Thanks Tyler and Mint, I love them!

Ive always had good experiences at MINT, but todays experience was top-notch! Today was my first time getting pierced by Tyler. He was professional, informative, and super excited to pierce my septum for me. He also took his time checking the placement to make sure it would line up well with my other septum piercing, which I really appreciated. Bree is always so friendly at the front desk and she helped me pick out some sparkly gems for my older piercings as well. They both made me feel super comfortable and welcome. I will continue to recommend you guys to everyone!

I went here for a septum piercing. The service was amazing and the atmosphere was awesome. The employee was very nice and honestly pretty cute. My septum piercing looks awesome and I’m really happy with it

Had a great experience at Mint! My nostril piercing is healing and looking great. Studio is extremely clean and beautiful showcase of their jewelry. Nothing felt rushed and I appreciated the time they took to walk me through each step from picking out the jewelry to the piercing itself. Always extremely friendly!

Super friendly and professional staff! They really took the time to make sure I was comfortable before the piercing and during. After-care was discussed in great detail. The shop is very clean. My piercing is perfect, Ive had no issues with it at all! I would highly recommend MINT!

I had a great experience, from jewelry selection to checkout. Bree and Janessa put me at ease and answered all my questions. I was impressed with the thoroughness of Janessas prep and in explaining each step so there were no surprises! I highly recommend!

Mint Piercing is one of the best places I have gotten my piercings at! I would recommend anyone to go there if your wanting any piercings.

This was my first piercing (besides my ears when I was a kid). MINT came highly recommended. They have thorough sterilization techniques and professionalism from the front desk greeting to the actual piercing. Bree greeted me and answered all my questions about the process, the jewelry and the pricing. Tyler did my piercing and set me totally at ease and explained everything he was doing, follow up, after care, etc. The office is very clean and beautiful. A class act for sure!

Tyler is fantastic. Very clean and nice shop. Highly recommend.

My 10 year old daughter just got her third ear piercing here. Tyler was great! He was very patient and talked us though everything. We had a wonderful experience! I would highly recommend Mint and Tyler!

The staff at this place was amazing with the care and focus they gave to our daughter when getting her ears pierced. I especially liked the fact that they took the time to explain each step of the process as they went through them. They also did a great job of explaining the after care and how to be successful with that. Highly recommend.

Tyler and Bree were extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. Tyler was my piercer and he carefully explained every step, from the consultation, to the piercing itself, and after care. My daith piercing turned out amazing and is perfectly positioned. Im so thrilled and I love my new piercing. I was also surprised at how little pain there was. I could hardly believe when the piercing was complete! The entire experience was so easy and Im so glad I chose Mint. They also advise to come in for after care check ups which are complimentary. They truly put the best care and attention into their work and educate on how to best care for your piercing to ensure proper healing. I cant recommend them enough!!! Thank you Tyler and Bree, and thank you Mint Piercing.

They did a good job on my septum, knowledgeable staff, friendly, professional, really nice studio. I felt welcomed, Tyler did an amazing job, very experinced all around it was a good experience cant wait to go back, 5/5 stars.

My daughter goes here and they do a fantastic job!

Absolutely amazing. They were very friendly and professional. The space is very clean, warm, and comfortable. I will be going back!

I got my nose pierced here about 5 months ago. It became very irritated and I was given COTTON to put pressure on it, and told me they refused to touch it until healed. Keep in mind I paid 80 dollars for this piercing. A month passed and they still refused to take it out and so I tried somewhere new, turns out my piercing had tarnished causing the irritation. Rude service and not willing to fix mistakes. Zero stars. Dont waste money people I repeat DO NOT ( I had to put 1 star to be able to post this)

Great people here, always have what you need and if they dont they can order it for you. Amazing customer service and knowledge. If you need or want a new piercing or have any questions or looking for some sick jewelry this is the place to go!

Walked in knowing I wanted my daith pierced, but wasn’t at all sure what to expect. Janessa took a look at my ear and helped me pick a ring that would look nice in my ear. She told me which ones would be too big and which wouldn’t work with the piercing I wanted. She was extremely thorough and friendly making sure I understood everything that was going to happen or would happen afterward. I love my piercing! It looks amazing and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received.

I just got a tragus piercing with Derek. He did great, explaining everything and making me feel comfortable and less nervous. I apologize as I didnt get the girls name up front but she greeted me the minute I walked in and answered all my questions. Mint is definitely top notch and will be back for any more piercings for myself or my daughter. Highly recommend! So glad I got my piercing at Mint!

After years of getting piercings, this was one of the best experiences I’ve had at a shop and with the staff and piercer. Very thorough with information and so friendly. Prices are reasonable for what is very obviously great quality jewelry and knowledge.

Great job on the piercings. Staff is super nice and advised me on the piercings i wanted. Definitely will be back again

What an amazing experience. All of the employees were incredibly friendly. I went to get my septum pierced at the same time my sister was getting her daith. This was my first facial piercing, and Janessa was incredibly helpful, from helping me get through my nervousness to showing me how to flip my new jewelry up in situations where a facial piercing may not be appreciated.Their items are a bit on the pricey side (with tip, my piercing came to $108, including a standard titanium curved bar with beads at the end and a saline drip spray), but they come with a lifetime guarantee. A friend got a new nose ring there while we were waiting and they took his old one out and put the new one in for free.Excellent customer service and everyone was extremely knowledgeable, while trying to make sure that every piercing/jewelry purchase was perfect.When I eventually decide I need more metal in my face, I know where Ill be heading.

All of the employees were so friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The whole experience was very comforting and it was a fast process. The atmosphere was very clean and modern. 10/10 reccomend and I will be coming back for future piercings

As a first time piercer, I had a fantastic experience! I was walked through every step, was not rushed, felt very confident in who was piercing my ears, and I absolutely love the result!

Nothing short of excellent. The staff at Mint is so friendly and welcoming and the studio is pristine! Thank you Tyler!!

I always have so much fun with the staff at MINT Piercing and love the jewelry choices and love the unique piercing ideas!!!

Everyone here is so nice and down to earth. I went here for a daith piercing and they make sure you know what to expect and make it clear you can come back and have them look at it if something isnt right.

While MINT wasnt able to give me the dermal punch I was looking for, they were incredibly awesome in putting me in the right direction! Im positive when I need some other more usual piercings in the future this is absolutely where I plan to go!

I got a helix and the staff was really really friendly and very professional. It was clean and the jewelry is lovely.

Professional and knowledgeable. The shop is immaculately clean, and I really enjoyed getting pierced here.

Tyler did a great job.

Nothing but top quality service, selection, and results. Love these guys!!!

Knowledgeable, kind, informative! Recommend highly!!

Customer for life!! Hands down BEST studio in Iowa!

The staff was super informative and nice. 10/10 would get pierced again.

Classy and clean, employees are friendly and helpful.

Was in and out in 10 minutes with my new piercing

Have to have a appointment

Great place!

Double forward helix

Very Professional
