Fantastic experience: I went in this morning to get my 13 year old’s helix piercing and my 10year old’s second. We were greeted by Chris who was very friendly, knowledgeable, kind and gave us good advice. My 13 year old got her helix with Sam, Sam was also very patient, kind and knowledgeable. It didn’t even hurt her and she was very happy. When it came to my 10 year olds turn, she was very anxious and scared, Chris came and reassured her and calmed her down and then she asked if he and Sam can pierce her ears at the same time as she was scared, they were both very supportive and kind with her. Chris even wiped her tears and cleaned up her mascara that leaked. Overall amazing staff, very caring and very kind also very clean facility and they really take cleanliness and hygiene to the extreme. Thank you Chris and Sam

Rebecca Malaka Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! Professional and knowledgeable staff, great jewelry selection. - Industrial piercing done in December 2023 by Michael. I had been debating an industrial for several years, wanting to find an experienced piercer who could advise yes or no if this was possible. I found Michael at Adrenaline through a friend’s recommendation. The process was honest, clear and very well explained. Michael was kind, funny, and gentle. Getting the industrial piercing itself was an easy process and one of the least painful piercings I’ve gotten. However the healing process for an industrial is long. It takes dedication, patience and following a strict cleaning routine (saline spray, saline baths). Michael had prepared me mentally for it but the reality was it really does take time. The first 4 months of the healing process were the hardest. One year of not being able to sleep on that side. Total healing time was 18 months. I am super happy I got this piercing done but it will always take being careful not to get it irritated. Black-and-white photo taken after the piercing was done with starting jewelry. Color photo taken with upgraded jewelry (blue opal ends). I also got two Daith piercings and a Conch done at Adrenaline. I happen to feel comfortable with Michael doing my piercings but I would highly recommend any of their professional staff!

Emily Chernock Published on Google 4 months ago

Gabrielle Marin Published on Google 6 months ago

Negative experience: Got butchered. I called beforehand to ask if they had non-metallic septum jewellery in 10g for a medical treatment and they told me they had silicone plugs, but I showed up and they said they didn't have it in my size but would try to fix it anyway. The piercer (tall bald guy, I don't know his name) shoved an 8g rod in my nose without ANY sort of care and he hurt me really bad and didn't let me speak when he decided to use another plastic plug that I did not want (at the time I thought he switched to a 10g rod so I thought it was just him being rough). I said I was on the fence about the alternative plug and he still went for it without me having a single minute to think about it. It's been a few weeks now and as I replaced my ring after my treatment, I just realized he INDEED stretched me to an 8g anyway which was absolutely unsafe, because I told him I had stretched to 10g only 3 months ago and that it was already irritated when I came in. This was completely unprofessional. There are much better, more caring studios out there. Support them instead.

Zhengtong Cao Published on Google 6 months ago

Amber Cote Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I've been here for two piercings so far, and can't recommend them enough! Jen was extremely friendly and professional during my vertical labret - I couldn't be happier with the placement, she really made sure it was centered and where I wanted it. Informative and kind staff, thank you ! :)

Olivier Langlais Published on Google 6 months ago

Negative experience: I'm not giving one star nor 5 star, because I do believe they are competent enough to offer good services but today I had somewhat of a bad experience with a piece of jewelry they put in my ear about a year or a year and a half ago. I got a 6G captive bead ring installed in my ears, needing to remove that piece of jewelry for medical reasons I used a pair of long nose pliers to remove one and it went well, my other one I tried to pry open I broke said pair of pliers. I went to a different piercing shop and it took 3 people to remove that piece of jewelry!! To my surprise the one I had difficulty removing had massive indents in the ball we had to pry the ring at least 3mm to remove it! That makes no sense to me to put that piece in if the other didn't have an indent and never fell off. I was sure I had to go to the hospital to get it removed. Hopefully the owner will trash all these CBR and get normal ones.

Fantastic experience: Quick easy delivery. I called with a slight family emergency, they were able to see my daughter within the hour. I was amazed at how they were able to deliver their services to her in such a timely and professional fashion. No stress, no fuss. Micheal was excellent with my daughter, he was able to give a good explanation of safety and cleanliness as well as a bit of the cause and effect of hepatitis. I am thoroughly satisfied and i wouldn’t want to go anywhere else in the Montreal area or the South Shore for mine and her piercing needs.

Matthew Cleary Published on Google 7 months ago

Negative experience: i got completely scammed. $250+ for snakebite piercings. my first ever piercings mind you. quality isn't better than other places either. never go here when there are better places all across montreal. they are money obsessed & genuinely don't care about you.

Adrénaline
Adrénaline

I am very sorry that you feel you were scammed. We do offer various jewelry options and we try to have a good quality selection for everyone's budget. Lip piercings are $35 and basic stainless steel jewelry starts at $35, so starting price per piercing can be as low as $70 before taxes. Since you opted for titanium and you wanted spikes - these are more expensive options, bringing the jewelry cost to $75 ($110 with the piercing) We stand behind the quality of our jewelry and the experience level of our piercers. We sincerely appologize if you were not made aware of less expensive options, we make an effort to give clients what they ask for.

anastasia Published on Google 8 months ago

Negative experience: I purchased some jewelry for my navel piercing here and it tarnished within a week. I was told it was surgical steel and was not informed that only the part that goes into the hole is surgical steel. The rest of the jewelry tarnished pretty much instantly, from around where the gem is and all the dangly part. It looks awful. I'm really disappointed because I wasted 35$. The jewelry also made the skin around the piercing green and I can't wear it anymore. Really really disappointed and upset that I wasted my money, I can't afford to just lose almost 40 bucks for no reason. The service was good and friendly, but I was given misleading info

Fantastic experience: Looking for a pain free experience? Adrenaline’s got you!!!!

I have a piercing project going on with Jennifer and she’s absolutely amazing!!!! Upon your arrival, you are served immediately by one of the staff. She’s always ready to work with you and up for a new challenge. Further, Jen takes her time and works with a lot of precision, patience, and attention.

The service from everyone I spoke with was kind and professional. I was a walk in and they took me immediately. Michael was the piercer who provided the service and he was awesome! The placement was perfect and his technique was painless and quick. It was a great experience and if you are considering going here for a piercing, I would highly recommend you do it, you will be happy you did!

His sweet and polite demeanour is a cherry on the top. He gave us suggestions to make the tattoo better and we couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. We had such a wonderful experience. The staff, all of them, were so polite, welcoming and warm. It felt like home. Comfortable, clean and exactly the kind of environment you would like to get tattooed in. It is worth the price you will pay.

Roa El Saadawy Published on Google 1 year ago

Positive experience: I went to switch my nose piercing jewelry and asked the piercer to help me with putting it in my nose. I don’t remember his name but he used the taper to stretch it and placed it for me. I got an infection from that, but it healed about 2 weeks later. I was wondering if the tapers are sterilized or new ?

Adrénaline
Adrénaline

Our tapers pins are titanium and they are scrubbed, put through and ultrasonic, put through a chemical bath and then sterilized in an autoclave before being reused. Our autoclave cycles are run with indicator tests and class 5 integrators in every load and our autoclaves are spore tested regularly. Unfortunately bacteria can come from all types of sources during your daily life, make up, pillowcases, fingers.... but we are confident that it does not come from our piercing room. Piercings can get "irritated" after switching jewelry for many reasons such as a small difference in size, weight or shape and there can be an adjustment period where the body readjusts to something new.

Negative experience: Way too expensive and tattoo artist (big guy named Duane), his skills are barely mid but he acts like he's fire. His people skill suck. He's just not okay. Way too expensive. I had the consolation and then went somewhere else.

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback. I am sorry that you did not have a good experience. I'm not sure what the issue was, Dwayne's client's usually really enjoy him. I would love to know more about the situation. You can email me at [email protected]. As far as his rates go, $150 an hour is pretty standard in the tattoo industry in Montreal. I guess, good for you if you managed to find a better artist with better rates.

Mes Non Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Went for a tattoo with a guy called Dwayne and I'll never go back. The guy was judgemental but in a passive aggressive way. It came off really rude. I've got a bunch of tattoos and his was by far the worst. His lines were jagged and uneven and I'll need to have them redone. His shading is good though but it doesn't make up for his horrific better than everyone attitude and his mediocre tattooing skills.

I am so sorry you did not have a good experience with Dwayne. I would like to know more about what happened and would love to have some photos of the tattoo. I would love to discuss to see if there is a way we can make things right. Please reach out to my email [email protected]

Negative experience: I went for a simple tattoo & the man Derrick left me in pain. I had blood & my other tattoos didn’t so Im assuming he went too hard. He asked me to remove my shirt when it wasn’t necessary & it made me uncomfortable. I was relieved when he was done but he also went gentler when I said it hurt so there you have it. Last time going there. It came out cute though.

Adrénaline

When responding to customer reviews I always try to be fair and use what is said to help us better our service. I know that sometimes customers are frustrated and don't always understand the entirety of a situation and I always try to take that into account when responding. That being said I just want to confirm what you are saying
... that although you are happy with the results of your tattoo you are giving us a 1 star rating because your artist; Derrick, who has been tattooing for 25 years, gave you a tattoo (a tattoo which is a puncture that breaks the skin and opens up a wound into the body) hurt and bled?

Unfortunately the only way to get ink into the appropriate layer of skin is to break the surface creating a wound, which bleeds, think about a paper cut or a cat scratch, even these small superficial wounds bleed and hurt. It is impossible to do a tattoo that does not bleed at all.

There are also many things that can affect both pain tolerance and bleeding, things like diet, medications, how well rested you are, how much alcohol you drank in the last 24 hours or even how close to your period you are.

You also forgot to mention that your tattoo was high on your ribs beside your breast... this is a very tender area, it is absolutely normal for rib tattoos to hurt more and it is absolutely normal for you to need to remove clothing in order to get a tattoo in that area. I would suggest that next time you get tattooed that you wear clothing appropriate to the area that you are getting tattooed or choose a different area, an artist needs to ensure that they have enough room around the tattoo to clean properly while tattooing so as not to get ink and blood (because yes, all tattoos bleed, even if you don't happen to notice it) on your clothing.

Just to add context to anyone reading this review, despite having done a consultation with the artist the day before and being given a price before booking the 2.5 hr tattoo appointment, you showed up 30 minutes late and you did not bring enough money to pay for the tattoo. While your boyfriend went to get more money you threatened several of our staff, and verbally assaulted one staff member in particular insulting her physical appearance.... so as far as customers go, we also give you 1 star.
We are happy that you think your tattoo is cute.
Please don't come back.

Ashz Bee Published on Google 1 year ago

Positive experience: ZERO stars for the TOTALLY FALSE promo. video on Insta. Straight up lies. Not cool!! (ie. piercings did NOT cost $25, was charged $30; nor was I able to save up to $25 /my donation of 5 cans. Was told discount only applicable on 1 piercing $30 - 50%). Pre-piercing customer service was perfect - the young woman who served me was lovely. Piercing w/Michael was great as well. He was very Professional, competent & gentle.

Adrénaline
Adrénaline

Hey Ashz, There seems to have been a misunderstanding, perhaps on our end and I’m sorry. If you donated 5 cans the discount should have been applicable on more than one needle piercing. I would like to know more about the situation and perhaps find a way to make it up to you? Please email me at [email protected] and let me know when you came in please?

Negative experience: We are not local, but the experience we just had was horrible. The lady at the front desk was wonderful but the tattoo artists had terrible customer service skills. One abruptly told a 16 year old (that was with his guardian) that he wouldn’t be tattooing him with no explanation, and the other accused me of faking guardianship when I questioned why he was being refused services. The situation was handled terribly, I explained that under no circumstances should such an accusation be made towards people when you have no evidence or understanding of the family dynamic, it is not a very kind thing to hear when your parent’s deceased! Very disappointed in the interaction we had.

Bri Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve gotten 15+ piercings at Adrenaline, all done by Michael, and they’re perfect! The customer service from Laura, Jennifer, and Valtr is also just as amazing. They will make you feel welcomed the moment you walk in and are incredibly knowledgeable. Adrenaline’s piercing quality and overall kindness should be the standard across every shop.

Leo B Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: If you're scrolling google reviews to find the right spot, let it be this one. Went in for a septum piercing with Chris, couldn't be happier with the results. I have a deviated septum that needed extra care and attention and he (and his apprentice Sept '24) delivered exactly that. The angle is perfection, and they graciously met my special requests. Clean, knowledgeable, top quality service, top quality jewelry. I'm so glad I went here above the countless others in the city. Wouldn't hesitate to go visit again in the future. Spend your money here, it's absolutely worth it. Thank you Chris and staff!!

Anastassia Khalkova Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I went there and got a helix and a 2nd lobe on both of my ears. I loved the service and Michael did an amazing job at making sure that both ears were symetrical and that I was happy with my piercings. The environment is clean and comfortable. Both piercings are looking good and barely hurt on 2nd day after getting pierced. I am very happy with the services and the staff. I will definitely go there again if I ever want to get another piercing.

Carys Knowles Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing. We went as a group of 3 (2 parents and an adult child) for a variety of piercings, and were dealt with by Chris and Michael. We felt super comfortable with both of them and with the care taken for our comfort and for the cleanliness of everything. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I got my nose piercing and my belly button piercing here. The staff is amazing, while the price may be on the pricey side, it is so worth it.

Fantastic experience: I went to see Derrick today and he was awesome. He integrated the grim reaper to existing wings tattoo I already had. It came out great I have been coming here for quite a few tattoos and from the front desk to the artists it a great experience. If you are looking to get a tattoo I do recommend Adrenaline and check in with Derrick especially if you want animation done. The place is always kept clean and well maintained.

Fantastic experience: Dwayne (tattoo artist) provided me with a professional and hygienic environment for the design of my tattoo cover-up. Dwayne is not only a talented artist but he has a fantastic sense of humour. He had me laughing the entire time that he worked on my tattoo. The finished result is a brilliant and beautiful tattoo cover-up that I adore. I would like to thank Dwayne for his fabulous work and for making the experience a positive one. I would also like to thank everyone at Adrenaline for their great tattoo after care advice. I highly recommend Adrenaline:)

Fantastic experience: I had an hidden hélix et a tragus yesterday M.Chris. Il practiced his treatments perfectly. Aseptic extremely impeccable, very patient, very assured to help client psychologically with great manner and attitude. Very transparent for prices and hygiene. Extremely professional from the beginning until I go out from the store. Every time I visit, their customer service was excellent, human, humble and sympathetic like a 5 star hotel! After care service is explained in detail. I highly recommend this place! And they didn’t hurt! Thank you very much !!

Fantastic experience: Thank you Jen and Michael! I got two piercings from them, they are both very experienced and knowledgeable and take the time to answer every question you may have. Definitely in good hands to get pierced by them (no pun intended). I’ve gone to many piercing shops and I highly recommend Adrenaline

Negative experience: Went in for a helix piercing. I was having issues with the healing process and went in for a checkup. I expressed my concerns that maybe my piercing wasn't healing properly because it was pierced at a "wrong" angle or that maybe I was having a reaction to the metal of my jewellery. My concerns were brushed off and instead I was told to start implementing very unsafe aftercare steps in my aftercare routine. I ended up visiting another piercing studio for a second opinion and my piercing was indeed crooked and my body was not reacting well to the jewellery. I ended up having to spend additional money at another piercing studio to try "fix" the piercing that I received from Adrenaline.

Fantastic experience: I had the absolute pleasure of having my second lobes pierced by Chris while he was visiting the Vancouver Adrenaline location and I cannot recommend him more. He is an excellent piercer, very informative and creates a super safe environment. Beyond just superb skills, he’s also a great guy! I highly highly highly recommend!!!!

Fantastic experience: Adrenaline is a Montreal piercing and tattoo institution. If you ever need anything their staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I even had to have jewelry special ordered for a piercing and the service level was nothing short of immaculate. I’m a repeat customer for sure.

Fantastic experience: I’ve gotten most of my piercings at Adrénaline, including 3 in my face, 9 in my ears and my belly button. All the employees are nice and very knowledgeable! So although a little more expensive, Adrenaline is my favourite place to get pierced .
