Darkside Piercing Frome

Finally got booked in to see Lee after a few recommendations and understanding he has a lovely reputation as a piercer. Been in contact for a while over insta for some advice before finally booking in. Was hoping to get a septum. Felt very comfortable with him, we had good chats as we were getting ready and he was measuring my nose to check it would be straight. Sadly he discovered that my septum anatomy was different to a lot of peoples and it wouldn't be possible to put a good piercing in so after feeling around to double check, honestly recommended not going ahead with it. I was disappointed but grateful for his knowledge and honesty - a lot of other piercers could have just shoved it through despite it hitting some thicker skin and causing issues later on!As we were all ready and in the chair though we managed to get my conch pierced instead, another one I'd been wanting for a while. It was quick and comfortable. We had a good chat about some jewellery to change it with in the future and also further piercing plans.Leigh is a professional who is passionate about his work, enjoys interacting with his customers and wants to pierce as quickly, safely and comfortably as possible. I'm so grateful that I found out the easy way from him genuinely looking out for my well-being that a septum piercing on me would cause me too much discomfort.I highly recommend him for any piercings, especially if you're a bit nervous and it's in a more painful or difficult area. I had the least amount of nerves I think I've ever had and I've had many piercings over my life :)Thanks Leigh! See you again hopefully soon!

I've had several piercings done by Leigh and its been a fantastic experience every time. Wouldn't go anywhere else, really informative, friendly and makes you feel at ease.

Had a nostril piercing in a clean, comfortable, relaxed studio with the awesome Leigh... Done as quickly as it could be; every process and step explained perfectly and I am now sporting nice new face jewellery without andly pain or after effects - Thanks Leigh

I've received a couple of piercings from Leigh, now, and the experience has always been positive. He's calm, friendly and very informative, clearly taking great pride in his work and the aftercare of every piercing. The studio area is clean and well presented and the atmosphere is very relaxed. Would absolutely recommend to anyone :)

I decided to have my belly button re pierced after having it done many many years ago (multiple times) and it kept growing out.I looked long and hard at reputable piercers and kept coming across Dark Side. I messaged Leigh and he was so helpful.I went for my consultation and was actually blown away by, not only Leigh’s customer service but his awards on the wall, his set up, the jewellery on offer and his informative process.I’m not new to piercings! I’ve had many over the years, but I have never experienced customer service and aftercare like I have with Leigh! It’s incredible.I’m now looking at many more piercings and I won’t be going anywhere else.Can not recommend Leigh at Dark Side enough!!!Jade.

Lovely local piercer, with an amazing range of jewellery. Leigh is really knowledgeable and makes you feel totally at ease whilst getting a piercing.Clean and tidy studio too - would definitely recommend!

Cannot big Leigh up enough. He's a really kind and genuine person who puts you completely at ease through the whole process. He let's you know what he's doing and why he's doing it. I have been going to Leigh for years and have always had excellent, professional service and never had any problems with healing.I recommend him to anyone who will listen to me!!

Amazing piercing studio. Leigh was so great with my nervous 10 year old daughter. He made her feel so at ease. He communicated so well during each stage of the piercing and made the whole experience really fun. I would highly recommend him to anyone with children getting their ears pierced! He’s fantastic!
