--- type: best_category_state name: "Best piercing shops in Iowa" category: "piercing" state: "Iowa" abbr: "IA" shops: 16 url: https://www.localtattoos.com/best/piercing/iowa/ --- # Best piercing shops in Iowa 16 shops in Iowa that reviewers mention for body piercing, each with at least 25 Google reviews. ## How this is ranked Shops are ordered by a Bayesian-adjusted rating: (n × rating + 320 × 4.79) ÷ (n + 320), where n is the shop's Google review count, 320 is the median review count across the directory and 4.79 is the directory-wide mean rating. Only shops with at least 25 reviews qualify; ties go to the shop with more reviews. Ordering is computed at build time from two facts per shop — its Google rating and its Google review count. One listing per street address, and nobody paid for a position. ## Ranked shops | # | Shop | City | Rating | Reviews | Reviewers mention | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | [The Crow's Nest](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/dubuque/the-crow-s-nest.md) | Dubuque | 5.0 | 1,800 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 2 | [TDF Tattoo and Body Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/sioux-city/tdf-tattoo-and-body-piercing.md) | Sioux City | 4.9 | 262 | Aftercare Products, Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 3 | [Neon Dragon Tattoo & Art Collective](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/marion/neon-dragon-tattoo-art-collective.md) | Marion | 4.8 | 518 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 4 | [Heroic Ink Tattoo & Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/ames/heroic-ink-tattoo-piercing.md) | Ames | 4.8 | 456 | Fine Line, Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services | | 5 | [Iron Lotus / Cedar Rapids / Iowa City Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/cedar-rapids/iron-lotus-cedar-rapids-iowa-city-tattoo.md) | Cedar Rapids | 4.8 | 422 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services, Flash Tattoos Available | | 6 | [Maya Modification](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/sioux-city/maya-modification.md) | Sioux City | 4.8 | 273 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services | | 7 | [Thorn-Side Tattoo & Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/sioux-city/thorn-side-tattoo-piercing.md) | Sioux City | 4.8 | 245 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services | | 8 | [Warrior Tattoo Studio](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/waukee/warrior-tattoo-studio.md) | Waukee | 4.8 | 235 | Piercing Services, Cover-Up Tattoos, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 9 | [Iron Heart Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/des-moines/iron-heart-tattoo.md) | Des Moines | 4.8 | 218 | Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs, By Appointment Only | | 10 | [Clover Tattoo & Body Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/windsor-heights/clover-tattoo-body-piercing.md) | Windsor Heights | 4.7 | 238 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 11 | [Cedar Valley Tattoo & Piercing Studio](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/waterloo/cedar-valley-tattoo-piercing-studio.md) | Waterloo | 4.7 | 253 | Piercing Services | | 12 | [Addictive Tattoo-Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/sioux-city/addictive-tattoo-piercing.md) | Sioux City | 4.7 | 290 | Piercing Services, By Appointment Only | | 13 | [Lucky Gal Tattoo & Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/des-moines/lucky-gal-tattoo-piercing.md) | Des Moines | 4.7 | 533 | Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs, Tattoo Removal | | 14 | [Tooth & Nail Tattoo & Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/davenport/tooth-nail-tattoo-piercing.md) | Davenport | 4.7 | 544 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services | | 15 | [Lucky Gal Tattoo & Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/ankeny/lucky-gal-tattoo-piercing.md) | Ankeny | 4.6 | 240 | Aftercare Products, Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services | | 16 | [Wildside Tattoo and Body Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/cedar-rapids/wildside-tattoo-and-body-piercing.md) | Cedar Rapids | 4.5 | 704 | Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs | ## Related - [Piercing shops by state](https://www.localtattoos.com/best/piercing.md) - [Tattoo shops in Iowa](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa.md) - [The best tattoo shops in Iowa](https://www.localtattoos.com/iowa/best-tattoo-shops.md) --- *Source: [LocalTattoos.com](https://www.localtattoos.com/best/piercing/iowa/).
