Best piercing and smoke shop in Newport, very comfortable to get a piercing from Greg, and I've been there for several friends getting them too. Clean environment and helpful along the process. Highly recommend.
EDIT: And after just a few months the store has been revamped into what I think is the best shop in Rhode Island!!! Awesome!

lost the ball to my septum and they helped me find the correct size and replace it with 2 really awesome ones. Great selection fair price and awesome service!

Got my nose pierced here, and it looks great! Fantastic customer service, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a piercing!!

Such good vibes lots of love for my people

Husband stopped in. Owner / worker was amazing and helpful. Completely stopped ordering online and will only shop here locally. Help this shop make it through COVID yo. Use cash ♡

I went in on my Birthday last minute looking to get my nose pierced and Greg squeezed me in between appointments. He was very accommodating and made me feel less nervous. You can tell he loves what he does and he is very professional / clean with his work. He knows what he’s talking about!

Great customer service

These two strippers recommended this place to me and I could not have been happier with the service. 5 stars from me!

Greg is the best! Pierced my lobe. It was quick and looks bomb! 10/10 would recommend. Newport’s go to for any piercings! Great prices and excellent service!

This place is sooooo good. The workers there are very welcoming and nice. The piercer is such a perfectionist and wants to make sure your happy with what you get. He is very nice and helpful and makes u few comfortable at all times. This place is probably the best place to go in Rhode Island for piercings. Definitely recommend!

Did a great job on our Helix piercings 🙂

My first time ever getting pierced and he was awesome! He really took the time to make them even. He mentioned he has 12 years of piercing experience and it shows! Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

I got my nose pierced while visiting from Ohio! They did such a good job and got me in at last minute . They all were so nice and friendly ! They had such cool stuff in there and the vibes were everything . I completely recommend !

Awesome selection of glass and clothing and very knowledgeable and helpful staff!!!

Great place with a lot of options to choose from! Beautiful pieces as well as outstanding service right when you walk through the door. The man who was working was super helpful and deserves recognition at the least!Visit and see for yourself because it’s totally worth stopping in even just to look around at all of the beautiful glass !!!!!!

My friends and I were on girls weekend in Newport and came across High Hopes. We all were privileged enough to be pierced by the G.O.A.T — Greg, of course. He was so professional, knowledgeable, pleasant, fun etc etc! We loved him!!! See you soon Greg ( . ) ( . )

If you are in need of ANYTHING, come here. To start off, Greg was amazing. He was such good help, knew all of his material, and had a great store for all your necessary purchases. While I was here I went to two other places, but nothing beats High Hope. 100% recommend!

I would highly recommended Greg for his piercing. He took his time assuring that they were in the proper position and I was satisfied. He wanted to follow-up and encouraged you to call if there were any issues. Very pleased with his service.

Amazing place, gentleman who runs the store is super nice and welcoming. Definitely recommend 11/10

I made an appointment to get my industrial done. Susie was super nice at the front desk when I went in and very positive and reassuring me it was going to be okay because I was nervous. Greg did an awesome job measuring my ear and picking the right bar for my ear size. He was quick and it was relatively painless and it looks freaking awesome. I've wanted this piercing done for more than 5 years and I'm so happy that I was able to get it done at High Hope because they did such a great job and they were so welcoming! I would definitely go again to get something else done in the future, and I will be very soon! Thank you so much Greg and Susie I am so beyond happy with my new industrial bar!!!

I went in here on Valentine's Day to get my nose pierced, it was something I wanted to do for over 10 years. After reading all of the wonderful comments about Greg and his staff, I finally did it. He and everyone made me feel very comfortable and at ease. The place is clean and well maintained. I'm happy I made this my choice to have it done
