To my clients, both future and present-

​

   My name is Coyote Black. I am a Father, Husband, Professional Piercer, and Jewelry Consultant from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. My piercing career started in 2008 in the wonderful city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Since that time I have been an active member of the industry and contributed to various outlets that push the boundaries of modern body piercing as we know it.
 

   When I came to Mantis, I did so with the intent to offer the safest, highest quality, most beautiful piercing and jewelry services in the world. I wanted to bring the feel of a high end, couture fashion shop to the world of body piercing and I am proud to be able to say that we have achieved this goal and able to share it with all of you!

 

   Of course, everything starts with the person behind the counter and it is important to me that all of you have a good understanding of who I am, and what my skillset is. Below you will find my personal piercing credentials.
