Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio

I’ve always had such an awesome experience here, the staff has always been very friendly and helpful and I’ve had a couple of piercings done here and loved them. However, I went in today to buy a stud for my nose piercing and had an awful experience with a lady with blue hair and an English accent. She kept pushing me to buy gold jewelry, which I told her from the get go I was no interested in because I am allergic to gold. I told her that I have tried gold before and my skin has a weird reaction so I don’t buy gold. I even told her that I had to coat my gold jewelry with polish to avoid that reaction, so it was not what I was looking for today. She went as far as to ask me why I kept buying gold and I had to explain to her that my earrings were a gift. Her poor attitude and pushy-​ness to buy some of the more expensive jewelry and her poor attitude totally turned me off. I have always bought my piercing jewelry from here but will not be doing so in the future. As much as I like them, this experience has lost them my business. I will make sure to share my experience moving forward with anyone interested in going here. I would like for a manager or owner to contact me.

Ruth have done a few of my piercings and is so great! She is very educated on her trade. She is patient, direct, and always focused in what is best for me to get the best piercing for my anatomy.

Sam was awesome. Explained everything and he was very professional. I wasn’t rushed and I didn’t feel like imposition like at other shops. Nipple piercings; his instructions for aftercare reduced healing time by months. Excellent!

Out of all my piercings, Mike at Diablo was the best experience I’ve ever had! Super genuine guy and very professional! He really made me feel comfortable while getting my piercings done! I highly, highly recommend him! … Definitely my go to guy from now on! :)

This piercing studio is great. I travel a lot for work and find that it is difficult to find a place that has piercers available to you without ego. It is refreshing when I come across a place that has staff like Ruth and Sam. They are full of knowledge and truly express their love for what they do with passion. I have been into this location for several different things. I have called them and asked them their recommendations as well. Each time they greet me with respect and a level of professionalism that keeps me referring them to others. When someone is putting you through some discomfort, as is with the case in most piercing. You truly need that experience to be smooth and met with a comforting and knowledgable piercer. This is the place in Austin for that. They truly do set a standard for customer service in their industry. I will continue to work with them when I find myself in Austin. Also, they have an amazing selection of quality jewelry available online as well as in store. Check them out today! Cheers!

Extremely awesome and helpful people. Got my first piercing ever (a stud in my nose), and Jim was extremely funny and charismatic, making my experience here not as scary as I expected. The pricing on their jewelry is great and they don’t try to sell you anything. Best place ever!!! Definitely coming!!!

Search «tampon» on Unilocal in Austin and this tattoo parlor is the #1 result. Five stars for that!

Only place I will head to for my jewelry. Best quality best service. Hands down best in Austin!

I visited Diablo Rojo last Friday for a nostril piercing. I originally went in planning on a ring but after speaking with the piercer, Sam, he explained to me that for the initial piercing they use a post because it’s a safer option for the initial piercing as rings tend to move around causing irritation to the wound extending the healing time and putting you at a higher risk for infection. I plan on going back in 4 — 6 months for a jewelry change.
I waited patiently in the waiting area while Sam performed two cartilage piercings and a jewelry change. He was very quick and efficient using his time wisely. He had me fill out the necessary paperwork and select a piece while working on the other clients (the shop is first come first serve) and began sterilizing the necessary equipment right away so I wouldn’t have to wait longer than necessary.
The shop itself was very clean and hygienic. Sam provided me with proof that the area and tools had been sanitized with a sanitizer test strip. This high level of cleanliness was very impressive although not surprising as I had done my research before choosing this shop.
All of their artist are certified through the APP (Association of Professional Piercers) which means they are held to certain health and safety standards. I was expecting a certain level of professionalism and as I have mentioned cleanliness but Diablo Rojo exceeded my expectations.
Sam was awesome at his job! I’ve been pierced and tattooed quite a few times before this and I can honestly say it has never been this close to pain free. Sam was quick, gentle, and the full extent of his skill has been made clear by how beautifully my piercing is healing. There has been minimal swelling, tenderness, and redness. If I decide to get pierced again I will definitely call ahead to see when he is available. Not only was he great at his job but he did his best to make the process comfortable. He was approachable and very friendly which is very important in his line of work.
In addition to all of that their selection of body jewelry was great! All of their options are made in the USA and made with higher end materials that are suitable to be worn in your body. I’m so happy I did my research and went to Diablo Rojo. The price for the piercing and jewelry was higher than I’ve paid in the past but quite honestly you get what you pay for when it comes to body modification. This is your health and appearance it’s worth the investment. I highly recommend this place!

I was very impressed! I bought several pieces of jewelry and got a piercing. All of the staff were knowledgeable and very sweet! The owner even watched my dog so I could get my piercing.

I went here for the first time today and was so pleased with my experience. Gil was the guy who pierced me. He was SO nice and thoroughly explained everything, regardless of the fact that I’d already had my nose pierced before (elsewhere). He was quick, careful, and super funny! I’d definitely come back here for another piercing!

I came in to purchase a new nose ring, because the jewel fell out. I was initially caught off guard by the lady in the back raising her voice to not touch the jewelry… but then she told me there were no backs and It was all good. I guess I didn’t see the sign. Oops. I had to wait a few minutes until Gil was available to help me with the selection… but that is because he gives each customer his undivided attention.
He took the time to go through the few I was selecting between and was very patient. I ended up getting the 14k gold with diamond because I was looking for something with nicer metal and would last longer. Gil gave me a bit of a deal — sweet! Overall, very professional and funny people. We joked around towards the end…
I’ll come back here for all of my body jewelry. Not to mention their selection was GREAT!

Sam pierced my excited 3 year old daughter’s ears and was amazing with her. He explained everything to her, was super patient with her and all her questions. His rules were she had to ask to get her eyes pierced herself and if at any point she said stop, he would. I love those rules. She asked. She cried after the first lobe was pierced and he asked her if she wanted the other one and she said yes so she got the second one pierced.
We went back in to change studs and had another great experience with the woman there, whos name i didn’t get. It was kinda pricey, but well worth it.

Purchased a large quantity of NeoMetal threadless labrets from Diablo Body Jewelry, and their customer service was exceptional from start to finish. The store (Philip!) contacted me to verify my identity due to the large order, kept me updated about the progress of my purchase, and extended me the courtesy of assisting me with the shipping and tracking information once my order was ready. Thanks for my awesome earrings and the wonderful customer service!

We came here for a belly button piercing, and bought their beautiful jewelry! Mike was the guy who helped us and he’s super nice, knowledgeable, and made us feel more at ease about everything. Thank you again! It was a great experience, couldn’t have gone better.

Super nice and professional. Both staff and shop nice and accommodating. Gave a great explanation of what the piercing process would entail. The shop and process were very clean. It’s great to see that the stereo type of shop employees and piercing studios is a thing of the past. Positive attitudes and happy to be doing what they are doing. Great customer service. I would recommend to my friends and family. In the past I have been to tattoo/​piercing shops and I have felt like I was bothering them because of the stigmatic nature of the business but this place was friendly and welcoming. Thank you:)

Got my forward helix pierced here! It was my first time getting something not on my lobe pierced so I was rather nervous, but Ruth was great! She explained everything, made sure I understood what was going on, and was really cool to just chat to throughout the process. She also made sure I knew how to properly take care of it and told me to come back if I ran into any problems or complications. The place is really clean and they sterilize everything really well, and everything was done very professionally. Would definitely go back if I want more piercings in the future!

Awesome!
One of the most personable piercing studios I have ever been to. I am sensitive to all metals except Titanium. Diablo Rojo not only carries quality products, they have quality staff as well. Defiantly worth a visit. You will not leave disappointed, and if you do the staff will gladly fix the problem.

Loved this place. I had my septum re-​opened here and also had some jewelry changed on my vertical labret. It blows me away to read any negative reviews on this place at all, because I had a wonderful experience with both the male and female that were in there. They were very professional, very patient, very thorough, and very clean. I would recommend this place 100%.
I have yet to find a place in Austin that can compare to what they have as far as jewelry. If you’re looking for good quality, your search should end here. They have quite a selection, and so many beautiful pieces that I would proudly wear if I could afford to buy them all.

This is in regards to
aka as Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio. Both entities are owned and operated by Phillip M.
Phillip, the owner and his staff of Diablo Rojo The Body Piercing Studio, have a severe attitude problem. I called the store to clarify some notations I made on 3 orders that I had placed on their website,
. My notes were a bit confusing so I apologized and then attempted to follow up with a phone call. The store staff was very abrupt and when I pleaded to speak with a live person regarding my orders I was told «Nope!» by a very rude woman and then hung up on. I was stunned and confused, but definitely not rude or disrespectful.
Then, less than 30 minutes later, I received an email from Phillip, the owner. He berated me for having the audacity to insist on speaking with a live person regarding my orders. He called me rude and threatened to cancel my orders. He withheld my orders for 3 days. He finally acknowledged there had been a misunderstanding, however he never apologized. When he finally did ship my orders he attached the following comment:
«In the future if you choose to do business with us, please do not call the studio.»
From now on I will be going to Walmart for my body jewelry needs. Yes, the quality of Walmart jewelry is vastly inferior to the top of the line quality jewelry Diablo sells, however, I would rather buy cheap jewelry and be treated with respect than go through that humiliation again.
