Our Staff:

John: Owner Hi, I'm John, owner & founder of Pierced Out and I’ve been into the piercing industry since 1990. I started with the stretching of my ears first, followed by other random body parts. I decided in 1993 to start Pierced Out only on the sole fact that so much overpriced bad jewelry was on the market. By providing a better “HAND MADE” piece of jewelry to the retail stores it insured the retail customers a much nicer piece of body jewelry. Our piercing studio started inside Marks of Art tattoo studio in 1995, in the back corner of the tattoo studio. We were there for about 7 years and then our current space opened up in 2002 and we moved on in. It has been great since the move and the studio is better than ever, our customers love the new space. It has more room for our customers and less distractions with no tattooing going on. I still supply studios with hand made jewelry and still enjoy doing custom work. If your into something a little different come in and set up a time to meet and let’s talk. Our studio is overwhelmingly better than other shops, hair salons & mall piercing carts… ASK OUR CUSTOMERS!. We strive on being the most up to date piercing studio in the south bay. Our aftercare is very carefully put together by the piercers, to be the most helpful to you, our customers. Please research your piercing establishment, see if they have the right training, tools, equipment and sterile conditions that your looking for in a reputable piercing studio. Please, Be Safe, Be Careful & Enjoy Your Piercings!

Michael: Piercing, Branding and Scarification I first started piercing in March of 1992 in Lafayette, Indiana and very shortly thereafter moved south to Bloomington, Indiana where I opened up my first studio. It was small but comfortable and provided income and inspiration while I was pursuing a degree at Indiana University. It wasn't long before I was ready for a break from school to pursue my dreams of piercing and moved to Atlanta for a short six month stint in Little Five points at Urban Tribe before once again relocating to San Jose to open a studio (Voodoo Therapy) with my friends, needless to say we were a few years ahead of our time, so I decided to finish my degree back at Indiana University after working for the summer at Obscurities in Santa Barbara and Dallas. I stayed for another three years in Bloomington finishing my BFA in photography to then move on to upstate New York to begin my masters degree at Rochester Institute of Technology. An interesting two years that finally lead me to beautiful San Francisco, California where I worked at Body Manipulations, for three years. I also own a jewelry company Esoteric Body where I make exotic hardwood plugs. One of these days I will make up my mind as to what I want to do, other than being a professional student. I am redoing my portfolio and am requesting that anyone that I have pierced in the past, to please come in and let me take a photo of your healed piercing for a printed portfolio. Thanks... I work the following hours: Friday's 11:00am to 10:00pm Saturday's 11:00am to 10:00pm

Annie: Piercer Where to start... I'm a 26 year old Body Piercer. I started Piercing myself when I was 12 and it just went from there. I've been into Piercing, Tattoo's and Body Mods of all kinds as far back as I can remember... I love the work I do and the people I get to meet. My main reason for getting into piercing professionally was to get people the right information... I wanted to be able to provide a service in a safe manner in a professional setting. I work the following hours: Tuesday - Thursday 11:00am to 10:00pm Sunday's 11:00am to 8:00pm
