Took my 5 year old daughter to get her ears pierced for her birthday. Dwane was absolutely incredible with her. Made the whole experience so positive and special for her, she didn’t even notice when the needle went it. Can’t recommend him enough!!!! Thank you Dwane!!!

I had my ear piercing ( The Conch ) done by Dwane @ Modified Monkey , and it was such a great experience. He was incredibly gentle, thorough, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the whole process. He was also super friendly and took the time to explain the aftercare clearly, making sure I knew exactly what to do. He has a fantastic selection of beautiful jewellery to choose from, and I absolutely love my new piercing! I would highly recommend Dwane to anyone looking for a professional, caring, and knowledgeable piercer. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Will highly recommend Modified Monkey for any of your piercing requirements. My 16yr old daughter wanted a bellybutton piercing as her birthday gift, which I very reluctantly agreed to. As a parent I had a lot of questions and concerns, but Dwane was amazing. He met with us for a consultation where he was extremely professional, answering all my questions and gave us advise and reassurances regarding the type of piercing that would best suit her, the process, the recovery and maintenance. Thank you Dwane for everything, you definitely helped me “the concern parent” through this and I’m very happy with the outcome. 🌸🙏🏼

I went to Modified Monkey to buy new jewellery for my nose piercing after my old jewellery had fallen out. Dwane was incredibly helpful and very professional. The piercing site had shrunk a bit and Dwane was able to fit my new jewellry with minimal discomfort. All in all, it was a great experience and by far one of the best experiences I've had with a body piercer. I'll definitely be going back. (Also, all of their jewellery is made from titanium and is very affordable in comparison to their competitors.)

I have been to Dwane three times and he is by far the best, most informative piercing artist I have come across in JHB. He won't pierce without discussing if it's the right option for you. I highly recommend his services.

Dwayne from Modified Monkey recently pierced my daughter’s conch and it really was the most fantastic experience! She wasn’t sure what she wanted and was very nervous and Dwayne reassured her at every turn and talked her through exactly what piercings he would recommend and why. He is so knowledgeable and professional, seriously one of the best we have ever been to. When it came time for the piercing, he kept her calm with his dad jokes 😂 and he was the ultimate pro! She was still waiting for the prick when he told her it was over! His jewellery is stunning, his studio is a chilled vibe, his expertise was awesome, and it was just a super cool experience all round! 100 percent will be coming back!

I got my belly peirced by Dwane a couple days ago, and I highly recommend going to him for your next peircing. He's extremely friendly and I was very nervous as I have a fear of needles and he made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. I've never had such a wonderful experience with peircers, he made sure to take his time and make sure everything was done properly. He spend time measuring which I really appreciate and the process was completely painless. Even now, the peircing barely hurts and there's no swelling at all. Dwane is extremely professional and he was making jokes the whole time to ease my fear. I will 100% be going to him again for any future peircings

If you are reading this, this is your sign to go and get pierced at Modified Monkey. 10000\10. My piercer, Dwane is the best I've gone to. Its rare that I find a studio where advanced piercings are available in Gauteng. So I did my research and I found a reputable piercing studio (Modified Monkey) I made a booking for nipple piercings and a VCH piercing on their website. I then recieved an immediate response when I messeged on Whatsapp. Upon confirming Dwane sent a file informaing me how to come prepared for my appointment. At each step I felt safe and in good hands. When I arrived at the studio, Alex opened up (Thank you, Alex). All the staff are proffesional, friendly and always willing to answer any questions you may have. Now This is important! The environment of the studio is clean and sterile. I felt comfortable and safe as much as I was excited to get my piercings. Dwane is great! He knows what he doing. He checked my anatomy properly before going ahead with the piercings. He also made sure to have jewelry options ready that fit my style. I felt calm throughout and before I knew it the piercings were done. Dwane then gave aftercare instructions before I proceeded with payment. Best day ever! I left Modified Monkey feeling great and now my piercings are healing up well. Thank You, Dwane and team.

A little heart to keep Instagram happy… but there’s no hiding this jewellery. ❤️ For this look, we used the polished Titanium CZ Pavé Face Nipple Ring from Adora Jewels . The circular design frames the piercing beautifully, while the full row of CZ stones adds plenty of sparkle without making the jewellery feel bulky or overdone. I love how a piece like this can completely change the way a nipple piercing looks. It becomes more than just the piercing, the jewellery becomes part of the feature. If you’ve been considering a nipple piercing, or you’re ready to find something different for the one you already have, we can look at the options available and put together something that suits you. 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #nipplepiercing #bodypiercing #adorajewels #titaniumjewellery

Two fresh piercings, two different-sized tops… and one beautifully balanced new look. This client saw our September Double and came into the studio on Tuesday with a double helix in mind. For the jewellery, she upgraded to the Gold PVD Stella CZ Tops from Adora Jewels . We used the 2.5mm and 3mm sizes respectively to create that subtle ascending look. I love how the difference in size gives each piercing its own little bit of sparkle, while still making them feel like they belong together. Swipe through for a closer look at the fresh double helix and how it fits into the rest of the ear. ✨ Our September Double gives you any two qualifying piercings for R800, with basic implant-grade titanium jewellery included.

One small change, one fresh piercing… and suddenly the whole ear feels different. This appointment started with a downsize for the helix. Once the shorter bar was fitted, we upgraded the jewellery to the Petal Fan Top and then added a fresh conch piercing to bring everything together. For the conch, we chose the Aurora Bloom Top from Adora Jewels . The seven-stone floral design gives it plenty of sparkle, while still sitting beautifully within the natural shape of the ear. I love how the Petal Fan Top and fresh conch complement each other without making the ear feel overdone. Swipe through for a closer look at the Aurora Bloom and all that sparkle ✨ 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #conchpiercing #helixpiercing #adorajewels #titaniumjewellery

Sometimes, the smallest jewellery change can completely transform a piercing. This client came in a couple of weeks ago to upgrade the jewellery in her healed nose piercing, and we fitted the Eclipse Twist Clicker from Adora Jewels I love how the twisted design brings the CZ pavé detailing together. It catches the light beautifully and gives the piercing something a little different without feeling overdone. Swipe through the carousel to see how perfectly this piece sits from both angles. You don’t always need another piercing to create a fresh new look.

July was a pretty amazing month. 🖤 A month filled with new piercings, jewellery upgrades, ear styling, returning clients, new faces and plenty of conversations in between. Sometimes when you’re busy working, you don’t really stop to look at how much you’ve actually done. Putting this reel together gave me one of those moments. Every piercing, and jewellery upgrade, here belongs to someone who trusted me with a little part of their story, and I never take that for granted. Keep working. Keep learning. Keep building. And maybe don’t tell everyone your dreams… just let them watch you make them happen. 🐒🖤 Thank you for an awesome July. 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #bodypiercings #awesomejuly #instagramreels #thankyou

What an awesome appointment this one was. I love it when clients come back for downsizing and then decide to get another piercing because the first two are healing so well. Three months ago we pierced the helix and flat, and this week it was time to downsize both bars. Downsizing isn’t just about making a piercing more comfortable, it also allows the jewellery to sit the way it was designed to. With everything healing beautifully, we could finally add the finishing touch… a fresh conch piercing. For this project, we stayed with a black theme throughout the ear, creating something bold without feeling overdone. 🖤 Helix – Black Stella Blaze Top 🖤 Flat – Black Stella Prong Top 🖤 Fresh Conch – BK/CZ Regal Fleur Sometimes it’s not about adding more jewellery… it’s about knowing when it’s time to add the next piece. Thank you for trusting me with another step in your ear styling journey. I absolutely love how this one came together, and I would love to do more projects like this🫶🏼❤️ 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za 💍 - Adora Jewels #modifiedmonkey #earcuration #conchpiercing #titaniumjewellery #blackjewellery

This isn’t a stretch… IT WAS A 6mm LOBE PUNCH. Last Wednesday, I had the opportunity to perform a 6mm lobe punch for Bansho , followed immediately by the insertion of implant-grade titanium tunnels for healing. Julian wanted his tunnels to be gold, and because we were using titanium, we were able to anodise them to 65 volts, giving them that rich gold hue without compromising the material. This procedure isn’t for everyone and shouldn’t be taken lightly. A section of tissue is removed during the procedure and, should you ever wish to reverse it, it can only be reattached surgically. Because of this, it’s a long-term commitment and something that requires careful consideration. After numerous discussions and assessing Julian’s anatomy, we decided that starting his journey at 6mm was the best option for him. He may decide to go bigger in the future, but for now, he’s happy to enjoy the 6mm look. For me, body modification has never been about performing the biggest or most extreme procedures. It’s about understanding anatomy, respecting the craft, and delivering work that is both technically sound and built to last. Watching the transformation happen was incredible, but seeing Bansho leave with exactly what he had envisioned was the best part. Thank you for putting your trust in me, Bansho. And a huge thank you to kylebtattoo for allowing us to invade your beautiful studio to perform the procedure. Kieren Herholdt also had his ears stretched from 8mm to 10mm on the day, but unfortunately I didn’t manage to record that one. 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #lobepunch #bodymodification #titaniumjewellery #tunnels

The conch was upgraded with Adora Jewels Front & Side Pavé Clicker, the tragus received the gorgeous Aqua Bezel Set Marquise, and we finished the styling by changing the rook over to a 2.5mm Aqua Stella Prong Top. I love how the subtle aqua stones tie everything together. They’re just enough to catch your eye without stealing the show, while the Front & Side Pavé Clicker gives the conch the attention it deserves. You don’t always need another piercing to create a fresh new look. Sometimes, the right jewellery is all it takes. 📍 Inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #earstyling #jewelleryupgrade #adorajewels #conchpiercing

Sometimes it’s the jewellery that transforms a piercing from beautiful to unforgettable. My client knew she wanted something that said “look at me,” so we built this fresh nostril piercing around our Snowflake Cluster from Adora Jewels . Safe to say, I think we understood the assignment. It’s bold without being over the top, catches the light beautifully, and suits her perfectly. 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📱 WhatsApp: 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #nosepiercing #bodypiercing #adorajewels #snowflake

I had so much fun styling this ear with my client, Mel. We played around with a few different ideas before finally settling on this combination… and I absolutely love how it came together. For this project, we added three fresh piercings and built the look around Gold PVD jewellery from Adora Jewels In the tragus, we used the Marquise CZ Cluster with Round Centre. The Triple Bezel Gradient found its home in the high conch (still one of my personal favourites)😍, and we finished everything off with the Bezel Set Pear in the lower conch. I love having the opportunity everyday to be able to help clients build something that’s unique to them. It’s not about choosing the biggest or flashiest jewellery—it’s about creating a look where every piece works together. I’d say this one came together beautifully. ✨ 📍 Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #curatedear #goldpvd #conchpiercing #traguspiercing

One of the best parts of a healed piercing… The jewellery upgrade. This client’s daith had healed beautifully, so it was finally time to swap the starter jewellery for something with a little more personality. I absolutely love how this piece follows the natural curve of the ear. It doesn’t scream for attention, but it definitely earns a second look. 👀 😍 This is an awesome reminder that getting pierced is just the beginning. As your piercing heals, your jewellery options open up, and that’s when the styling really starts.🤩 Sometimes, all it takes is one jewellery change to make you fall in love with your piercing all over again.❤️🥰 📍Based inside Jaded_Ink 📲 WhatsApp 084 600 5263 💻 www.modifiedmonkey.co.za #modifiedmonkey #daithpiercing #jewelleryupgrade #adorajewels #earstyling
