Identity Body Piercing

"I had a decent experience at this location. I had a tooth gem installed here, 2 at the same time. Z installed them for me and they were really patient and kind when I was having trouble deciding when I wanted. The procedure took about 30 minutes total and was painless and carefully explained. They have a 30 day warranty policy, which is nice. The reason this is not a 5 star review, is because unfortunately one of the two gems I had installed broke just past the warranty date. I understand there's not much that can be done at that point, but I guess it's mostly about the quality of materials. Maybe it was a one off, but it's easy to feel hard done by this when it's been just over a month, and they're supposed to last around 6 months minimum. If you're looking for tooth gems, not many places around do it professionally, but for a piercing studio, I highly recommend Fundamental Body Piercing."

"I just walked in and got my septum pierced and it was an amazing experience! They were busy and I didn't have an appointment, so it was a bit of a wait, but they acknowledged me immediately and were totally up front about the wait time. Ian did the piercing and had to correct a bit for my deviated septum and they nailed it, and they were just a delightful human being! I am recommending them to everyone who wants a piercing in Chicago!"

"Took my 8yo daughter to get her ears pierced for her birthday. From start to fin, an all around great experience. The studio is clean, well lit, and there is plenty of style in both their decor and jewelry choices. The front desk staff was very personable and took a lot of care with my kiddo to select the perfect earrings. The piercer was incredibly kind as well with excellent descriptions about what she was doing. I couldn't ask for more. Will be back for my own work!!!"

"I’ve been to Identity several times. They are very clean and professional. I like that they specialize in piercings and have experts. I also appreciate that they have a large variety of jewelry available. My only complaint is that they aren’t very transparent about the pricing of the entire piercing process. You have to pay for the piercing as well as the jewelry and the backing. I always end up paying a lot more than expected. I also wish the jewelry on display actually had the prices next to each jewelry instead of a range. Its ALWAYS an awkward conversation when I like a piece of jewelry but it’s way out of the price range I was expecting. It’s also inefficient and a waste of time to have to go back and forth and ask the cost of each jewelry. My friends and I have had a few experiences like this and it’s not great."
