Got standard earlobe piercings done by Tony (recommended by Vivi) for $48 bucks with the Yelp discount! Tony is such a sweet guy and certainly knows what he's doing.
Even though my ears closed up from 2 years ago, Tony listened and advised me every second of the way, even telling me when to breathe in & out before he stuck in the needle. I'm certainly glad i chose to go with a professional piercer instead of the germ-infested gun at Claires!
Tony is AMAZING. I was skeptical coming to get surface anchors by someone who hasn't pierced me before (I usually go to Aerick at Fura in Castro Valley)... but I'd go back to Tony in a heart beat. He took his time lining up my anchors so they were even and made sure he got them where I wanted them. He talked about the procedure and told me why he was doing the things he was doing (i.e. warming up the skin prior to the piercing, etc). When it came to the actual piercing, he was quick and swift and it was virtually painless! I walked away with two perfectly placed surface anchors. Super +!
Another + for Tony, he gladly gave me advice on my stretched ear lobe. Three days ago I stretched myself from a 9/16 to a 5/8 and tore my ear up pretty bad.This morning my tunnel fell out and my ear looked NASTY. Needless to say, I left my 5/8 tunnel out. Tony gladly advised me on how to fix my F-UP and didn't scold me too bad for using Hot Topic jewelry. :) He also sold me some glass plugs (downsized to 7/16) to allow my ear to heal. When I go back for a check up on my surface anchors, he's going to check out my ear too... even though its MY hack job.
Yet ANOTHER + for Tony- he talked to my boyfriend who didn't even get a piercing and advised him on how to take care of his snake bites! My boyfriend had asked Tony to check out his lips because he was having problems. Tony thoroughly explained what caused the problems, then gave him some advice on how to get them back to normal.
Tony was very glad to invite is both back to talk about any other piercing problems we might have. I'm so excited to go back to Anchor Bay for more piercings by Tony.
If you're in the area and looking for a piercer... go see Tony. Seriously.
I got my industrial done by Tony and it was a really exciting, comfortable experience. I emailed him a little before going to get it done. I went on his website and looked at his work and I asked about his availability. I appreciated his honesty about what to expect. He was right when he said the piercing wouldn't hurt "too bad". Going to get it done I was a bit nervous going into the room, but the piercing wasn't too bad. Tony was well versed in performing the piercing and it was over before I knew it. I am really glad that I got it done and it was well worth the money. It's been almost two weeks and my ear is doing great! Just remember to breathe when you're getting it done.
Review Source:Super nice guy! Answered my text late at night and adjusted his schedule to fit mine.

I got my Monroe done. I lost a bet and had to get another piercing so I just went with something in my ear. He marked a spot that I didn't like but was happy to change it.
The piercing routine was clean. Clean as in hygienic. Everything was sterilized, my mouth included. I have several piercings so this wasn't my first rodeo. I was in and out like in n out.
My only gripe is that I SLICED my hand open getting into the chair. There is some metal on the side, and I found someway to encounter it. He didn't have a bandaid, which kind of made me laugh, but gave me a paper towel to stop the bleeding. I was about to get two piercings tho, what's a chunk out of my palm gunna hurt?
I raced home to check out the new Monroe, and disinfect my battle wound.
The total was $93.?? Including upgraded jewelry for the Monroe. I gave him 100. (tip your piercers, they really appreciate it)
4.75 stars, but I'll round it to 5 for the love of Kanye.
I was a little anxious getting my piercings, however Tony made me feel comfortable with his easygoing and friendly personality. My friend and I tried using his Yelp deal, however the website was down. Fortunately he was kind enough to still offer this deal. It's only been a few days, but my piercing is already healing wonderfully. I think I'm done with piercings, but I will definitely recommend him to my friends
Review Source:Tony is really great at what he does. Â Before meeting in person, he was very attentive and friendly over the phone. Â He accommodated his schedule to fit my own, his rates also seemed quite reasonable.
Once I was in the shop, he explained to me the procedure in detail (double nipple piercing) and followed it to the letter. He allayed my anxiety and was gentle, clear, and most important fast! It has now been three weeks since I had the procedure done and it has been smooth sailing. I followed his post-procedure guidelines, and encountered no problems; my piercings look and feel great! I will definitely be making the trip out to Hayward from San Francisco for future body work with Tony.
Tony was so awesome. Very informational and was so patient with my 21 questions about my new anchor piercings. He made me very comfortable and helped me pick out the perfect jewelry. I love my new jewelry and I'd recommend any and all of my friends and family. He knows his stuff! Business was great the wait for my jewelry was so worth it. Definitely check him out at Anchor Bay! I'll be back for more for sure.
