Pokt Piercing

I have had multiple piercings done by nikki and I can honestly say I loved every experience I’ve had with her. She always made me feel so comfortable through the whole process and answered any questions I had and listened to my concerns. She is so knowledgeable about what she does, and you see that in her every day work. I would definitely refer her to anyone looking for quality care.

What could I say she’s done it again !!! (:
I recent got pierced by nikki 4 days ago I got my nipples pierced and I couldn’t be any happier! I just love her energy she’s so down to earth and it’s never awkward ! Getting your nips pierced by just anyone could be soooooo weird especially for a girl but nikki makes you feel 110% comfortable! And I just love how she talks you through the process and ask how «we’re feeling» or are «we okay» and if you need «some time» she also tells you about the needles she’ll be using and the jewelry. if your in need of an amazing piercing this is the girl to go to!!! Highly recommend.
Ps.
I’ll be getting my dermals done by her soon #yay #cantwait

Nikki is an amazing piercer. Extremely professional in every way. Answers all your question’s. Makes you feel comfortable. Always prepared. Thank you Nikki for being Amazing.!!

If I could give her less then a full star I would, I don’t get how someone can pierce underage girls/​boys… My cousin being one of them. Then she posts these pictures of her work (right after she did them) because they all reject I have had numerous piercings done by her were they have fallen out because of the incorrect jewelry put in then she wants the customer to pay to fix her fuck up. She also put dermals in my mothers ears and they all rejected. Talking to other PROFESSIONAL piercers they all said dermals would have never worked where my mom wanted them. I confronted her about it and she said she «went to a class» and figured out she used the wrong jewelry and would fix it for free. But when my mom wanted it done she flakes… Her usual act. Then she says she is clean when she pierces you either on her couch or in a room in her back yard… And then she uses your idea that you had her do on your hand and uses it like a trophy… That rejected. That every other piercer said was a bad idea because it rejects. Besides her of course, like she always says look into your piercers. There is a reason she has «piercing parties» and «$ 25 days» I suggest pierced out or Rafael Hernandez because he’s amazing PROFESSIONAL PIERCER and he is eye candy. Xoxo

I came to Nikki to get a double forward helix piercing.
I should have seen this as a sign! 15 minutes before my scheduled appointment Nikki texts me and asked if it was ok to be late because she needed to get lunch. I figured why not everyone’s gotta eat! I asked when and she said I’ll be back in 45 minutes. WHAT?! I scheduled my appointment a week in advance and I figured lunch would be like get something and come back. I don’t live in the area and wasn’t familiar with it so I sat in my car and waited for 1hr… Now that I think about it, I should have just left then and there.
At the time that I got pierced, she worked out of her home. Which I thought was fine until she had me lay down on her couch and pierce me. My face is on some random person’s couch where their butts go, how lovely! I thought whatever, I’ve heard great things about her. But before that I wanted to discuss jewelry options with her… She recommended NOSTRIL L-​SHAPES STUDS for my forward helix to «allow for swelling.» I thought «hmm with the placement I’m SURE this will get yanked out» but against my gut feeling I trusted her anyway. I figured she knows what she’s doing. She suggested sleeping with band aids on my ear and always have my hair up (ok how realistic is that?!) There were numerous occasions where those studs would get ripped out of my ear or fall out.
The piercing itself wasn’t painful. It was quick and easy. She walked me through what she was doing the entire time and went over aftercare.
Fast forward 6 months when my top helix piercing started to get irritated after proper aftercare (I’m not amateur when it comes to piercings). I went to another piercer who took a look at the job that Nikki did. The first thing he said was «Why in the world do you have nose studs on your ears?!» I explained what Nikki said and he definitely had a good laugh. He was shocked!!! And he couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He also told me that the reason why my top helix piercing is getting irritated and forming a bump. Nikki placed my top piercing right by my rook. So the «proper jewelry» (nose studs) she put in was actually getting pushed forward against my rook. That caused it to get irritated and form a bump! My new piercer recommended to remove those nose studs ASAP, get proper jewelry and repierce my top forward helix. Once my new piercer changed my jewelry and repierced me my ears were much much much happier!
I’ve heard that she no longer pierces on her couch… So that’s always good.

I’ve always been more into piercings than tattoos. I understand the beauty of getting a picture, design, or something meaningful tattooed onto your skin that represents something.
But for me, there’s just something so sexy about getting a needle shoved into your skin, and then popping a piece of metal through it, forever becoming a smaller and simpler piece of art on your body.
Piercings add that perfect enhancer to the body. They accentuate the eyebrow, draw attention to the lips, highlight the ear, and make parts of the body pop out.
I turned to Pokt Piercing for my new addition to my body. I’ve always wanted to get hip piercings. Yes, that’s right, HIP piercings. I wanted surface bars for the longest time, but know that they have a high rejection rate. Seeing as my body has a pretty bad record of rejected piercings (3 for 3 right now), it seemed like odds were working against me.
But then I discovered what dermal anchors were. They have a much lower rejection rate, you can get them almost anywhere, and they were semi-​permanent.
Nikki, who runs pokt piercing independently, has been doing piercings for about 9 years now. She works out of a shop in Hollister called Only the Honorable, but she’s also a traveling piercing. This means that she can travel to other locations to do piercings at any other site.
My experience was pretty short, but nothing short of amazing. I was REALLY excited to get my piercings. She really could tell I was excited, that when she asked me to lift my shirt and tucked it up. I misheard her and basically threw my shirt off at her… wooo! We talked about piercings and life, letting me browse her portfolio while she prepared my piercing and all the instruments. I chose purple as my jewelry, but she had all sorts of colors available.
I stood up while she measured where I wanted my piercing. She was really careful to make sure they were even and perfectly symmetrical. After I was happy with the location, I Iied down and she talked to me to calm me down. Finally, a deep breath in and she put the first anchor in. It was a hard pinch, but nothing too bad. It was the 2^nd one that always ends up hurting! The 2^nd one bled a little, and made me clench my fist pretty hard. But alas, it was still nothing too unbearable.
And just like that, I had 2 beautiful pieces of metal sticking out of my abdomen! I was sooo happy, they look soo sexy! She talked to me about aftercare, and sold me some sea salt spray which makes cleaning so much easier.
It’s been 2 days, and everything still looks awesome! There’s no pain, soreness, or any signs of my body wanting to spit out these little pieces of metal out at the next person standing next to me. Prices were also very competitive. The price she quotes includes jewelry as well, so you don’t have to worry about that. My new anchors cost about the same as my one eyebrow piercing I did 2 years ago.
Ok, not look body, if we’re going to ever dream about being the next Suicide Girl, we gotta have a better record than (0 – 3) alright? And for pete’s sake, 2 of those were my earlobes!!! Let’s go for (2 – 5) ok? please?
