I am so glad I chose Primitive Impressions for my nose piercing. Â Jason was fantastic in every way. Â He answered all our questions, was patient, personable and thorough. Â He explained everything as he did it and even explained how he sterilizes his equipment. Â I felt completely at home there. Â I don't think there's anything else I need to have pierced, but if I did, I would go back in a heartbeat.
Review Source:I've had piercings done here and other places and the difference is amazing, I love this place! Jason's great personality and expert advice is definitely what sets this shop apart from all the others. Your comfort is always the number one priority and be prepared to laugh!
If you are considering a more exotic piercing or a genital piercing, Primitive Impressions is definitely the place to go, Jason has done it all, done it well, Â and won't charge you an arm and a leg
Jason could possibly be my favorite person ever. I would never go to anyone else for piercings.
I've been going to him for quite some time now, and he always remembers who I am. On the many occasions when I have had one of my piercings acting funky, and being sore or bumpy he has always helped me for no charge at all. When you get a piercing there he is always helpful and kind. He makes jokes to try to calm you down, and explains everything he is doing. He is very talkative and always has tons of stories to tell you.
Getting a piercing at primitive impressions is more than just getting a new piercing, it's an experience.
I haven't lived in Rochester for over 15 years. I have been coming to Jason since I was in my teens. Even living over 400 miles away has not stopped me from coming here. Whenever I was in town, I would stop by and pick up new jewelry or get a new piercing. While unfortunately over the years I have been forced to remove many of them due to my career, I still have my monroe and nose. And probably won't be taking them out for as long as I live. Jason is amazing. He is a great person who really knows what he is doing. I can always trust him with any piercings or concerns. He is extremely kind and very easy to work with. He is not all about making money, piercing you and bringing in the next person. He genuinely loves what he does. This is the best place to go in the world. I would never go anywhere else again - after being pierced somewhere else and getting a serious infection.
This spot has been around for YEARS. And deserves it.
I've been going to Primitive Impressions for my (many) piercings for close to 10 years. Â The shop is always spotless and has a very calming vibe, which is nice when you're getting ready to be stuck with needles. Â The owner, Jason, is amazing - extremely knowledgeable about piercing, healing, etc., always willing to answer questions, explains every step in the process and is meticulously clean. Â He also has the most calming voice and is always ready to chat with nervous customers. Â More than once I've felt a bit woozy after a piercing, and I've never felt like he was trying to rush me out the door to get to the next person. Â Absolutely the best piercer in Rochester.
Review Source:This place is great... seriously... I went Thurs to get my labret pierced. I had done a ton of research, and decided to come here. I am so happy I did. I was so nervous, when we went in, the place was nice and small, it felt very personal and not like a "ok next.. thanks..bye.." kind of place. It was very eccentric.. just like, Jason. He was so awesome, very calming. Very very patient. I was very nervous and I really liked how he kept talking to me. I know the process probably should have taken about 15 minutes shorter, but luckily, he knew I was nervous.
Jason had incredible bedside manor, he was so clean and hygienic. He changed his gloves twice because he realized that I needed a longer bar for my lip. Everything was sprayed, cleaned, etc right in front of me. The tools were in sealed sterilized bags and he also opened them in front of me. He explained everything to me, what he was going to be doing. Because he was so calm and kept talking to me, I started to calm down.
I didn't feel anything until it went through the front of my lip, thats when I yelled an expletive :( He laughed, said I could have and he has heard 1000x worse haha. Apparently, I lost some color and didn't look to well, so instead of telling me; he just kept talking to me, gave me water :) Made me laugh. He explained everything soo well.
I was also nervous that my lip would swell very badly and I would be in pain. My friend had gotten hers done back where she lives, and hers wasn't done as good as mine :( She was asking him questions about hers. He was extremely nice and patient and gave her advice. He didn't "knock" the guy who did hers.
I highly recommend him. My 2 other friends went this evening and got their rooks pierced, and he was the exact same way with them as he was with me, only exception, they weren't nearly as nervous and I was, therefore, their process took a bit faster haha.
I have gone here for every one of my numerous piercings (except the only one I have ever had a problem with....) Jason (the guy there with the ponytail and the chaps?) is such a genuine, wonderful person. He's very kind and knows how to make you feel comfortable when there's a needle half through your skin. He knows how to do everything I've ever asked him about...he has a LOT of experience. The whole shop is very clean and has a chill vibe to it, always great music playing. I suggest this to everyone that has ever asked me about piercings, and they have all agreed- he's definitely one of (if not number one) the best piercers in Rochester.
Review Source:I cannot recommend this place enough! Â I was actually recommended to go there by my coffee barrista at Spin and I have never been disappointed! Â
So far I've gotten a total of 4 piercings there and every single time, the piercer (whether it be Niki or Jason, the owner) has been completely great explaining everything and talking me through the whole process. Â The owner makes his own custom jewelry and while I've never gotten anything done, the work I've seen come out of there has been IMPRESSIVE. Â
Overall clean, safe, friendly, and DELIGHTFUL!
