I had a great experience at Black Hole. I got my Helix pierced by Damian. They were very pleasant and helped me choose my jewelry. They ran through the consent form and asked if I had any questions. When Damian brought me back, he immediately put me at ease. He was very kind and made sure that his mark for the piercing was exactly where I wanted it. He gave me multiple opportunities to change my mind about it if I wanted. When it came time for the piercing, he walked me through everything he was doing. He helped me prepare and even made me laugh. I would definitely recommend Black Hole, and Damian, for piercings.

Damien is very good at what he does. I had jewelry exchange done, and he kept me cool and collected with his expert banter. All the while I was surrounded in a sterile, freshly wiped down and not still warm from the prior human environment.

I have not used my pierced ear in 20 years and I thought it was fully closed up. So I signed up for a new piercing. The folks here were so helpful! They were able to re-open my piercing with minimal pain and get it back in working order. They could have easily charged me 3x for this work and said it was not openable but their integrity was amazing.I booked an appointment a hour before I went in, they were so easy and accessible. Despite it being 105 outside their AC kept it under 80 inside.The guy working the front was so kind and helpful and made me laugh. Gave me lots of jewelry options for my piercing.Austin did my piercing. So funny and nice. Great experience. Clean. Fast. Communicative. Instructed me through breathing as he reopened and gauged my ear. Lots of smiles.I will be back if I ever get another piercing.Come here over Claires! Waaaaay better experience and they dont use some dirty gun with minimal training or cleanliness.

The team at Black Hole is incredible. I got the second hole on my lobes pierced and had the most enjoyable experience. As soon as you walk in, cost is made clear to you. Front staff lets you know the cost of the service and jewelry before you get pierced.Austin was wonderful! He did a great job making sure I was not only comfortable, but getting exactly what I wanted. We had a really fun conversation while he walked me through everything he was doing during the appointment.I’ve been here in the past to get some jewelry switched out so I knew they’d take care of me. I’ll happily be back to this location for any further piercing needs.

Great staff, great art, great experience. My only issue is that their location is not accessible if youre in a wheel chair or on crutches. Like, the parking is awful, and also, there is only one set of stairs in, no ramp, etc.

Black Hole was fantastic! Meghann and Damian were wonderfully open and kind both with me and with my daughter; they made sure there were no mysteries for either of us and that we were both completely happy with our piercings and our jewelry choices. Five stars, would absolutely trust them for any other piercings (or tattoos!)

The incredibly kind, personable service blew me away. We came in for a piercing for my daughter, and based on our experiences at a couple other shops, I wasnt expecting much - or maybe I was expecting to have a worry or disappointment. The personal care they took to my daughter was just *great service*. Very professional, knowledgeable, and they built a solid foundation of trust in this one interaction. If anyone in our family needs a piercing, we will only go here, and Ill recommend to all our friends. Austin, thank you! Front desk (Alex? Im sorry I forgot your name!), thank you!

Love these guys, the piercers are very kind and accommodating and I absolutely have loved every piercing i have gotten here! However, they have never once picked up the phone when i have tried to call (at least 3 or 4 seperate occasions w/ multiple calls each time - and they were open) so thats not ideal.

Austin is so awesome. Super professional. Super clean work. My photo doesn’t do it justice. I’m not photo savvy. I got both nostrils pierced and my septum ring changed out. He made it a great experience. 100% would recommend and will be back.

KADE WAS AWESOME! I got my first tattoo here a little under a month ago and I have 0 regrets. Kade (and everyone else I spoke to) was very kind and professional. Im a weenie when it comes to pain so I had my eyes shut and was holding my moms hand the entire time and I didnt feel judged at all. I felt comforted with a Trixie the drag queen barbie doll watched over me lol.

I took my daughter here to get her ears pierced. The staff was friendly and proffesional. Damien did a fantastic job. Quality materials for piercing jewelry, and safe and sterile practices make this a great choice for getting pierced in washington county.

Went in for a jewelry change for my nose ring and they made it so easy! I was able to talk through what I was looking for before I went in and get a recommendation. Steven did the change - which I’m terrible at - and he was so friendly and chatty (in a good way). HIGHLY recommend!

Really nice jewelry options. I had several piercings done at once and the placement was excellent. Jay took a lot of time with me and gave me really great placement advice. I’m a picky person and am used to being only 75% satisfied with most services at best. But I am 110% satisfied with my experience and results from Jay at Black hole. I will be going back for more when these heal.

Got my tattoo re-worked by Kade and I’m really happy with the results! The shop was very clean too and relaxing music (soft rock) was played which was refreshing compared to other tattoo shops I’ve been to. I’d really recommend Black Hole Body Piercing & Tattoo!

Black Hole Body Piercing & Tattoo is a downtown Beaverton staple. The staff are genuine in conversation and care for what you want to have done by the artists or piercers. Ive had Cade and Anthony tattoo me each twice, and I appreciate how you both took time to see what I saw with my ideas and embellish my bod. Ive seen both my parents get tats here and one of my brothers. Two close friends got their ahems pierced at Black Hole and ALL of us always recommend this place to other family and friends. Youre the best!

Super clean and tidy environment, awesome staff and redirected me to get an awesome eyebrow piercing after they examined my bridge and found my anatomy would not like a bridge piercing! 😂 They recommended a spiked piercing for my eyebrow to match my spiky septum piercing and Ive never felt so good about my face!! 💖 I love it, thank you yall! 😊

TLDR; the artist who did my work was excellent. The artist that was next to him made me nervous and weary about coming back.I recently visited this tattoo shop and had a great experience with the artist who did my remembrance piece. Clean lines and the final result was exactly what I wanted. However, there was another artist at the shop who was working on a separate client and was very careless in her movements. She was hastily moving things and the floor would wobble (wooden planks) the bed. She even bumped into the bed I was on, causing it to shift. Despite this, she did not apologize or show any concern to me. She did say “oops” very nonchalantly. Just seemed pretty uncool. Thank god Kade is talented af! This lack of consideration made me uncomfortable and I would hesitate to go back to this shop knowing that the other artist may not take the necessary care when working around other artists’ clients. Which honestly sucks because I would love to have Kade do all my future work and touchups. Additionally, I’d hope when running a business you would be compassionate enough to not insult clients likes/their city. We all have our likes and dislikes we can be kind enough to respect that. It was rude and honestly disrespectful. There are some things you can think and keep to yourself, y’know? Please be more thoughtful with your words. Compassion matters.Overall, my experience was positive thanks to the artist (Kade) who worked on my tattoo, but the behavior of the girl next to him And unnecessary judgment in the shop was a major downside to my visit. Having said all that I do cherish my new lil addition. Thank you Kade! 5 stars for you Kade!

Have had 6 piercings done here and theyre doing great! People are amazingly kind, patient and knowledgeable. Shops clean and the piercers are really good about gloving up and sanitizing everything. Theyve even squeezed me in as a walkin when one of my jewelry pieces wouldnt go back in when I was trying to change it and I was worried it would close (septum). Nice jewelry selection too. Havent got a tattoo there yet but Im thinking about it. If I do Ill update the review. Highly recommend this shop.

Review №22

Hands down best piercing experience ever. Alex greeted me and was very professional answered all of my questions and was super nice! Austin was my piercer and he made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. The piercing process was quick but he really takes his time to make sure he gets everything symmetrical (I got nose piercings each nostril) and I can’t express how much I appreciated him making sure everything was right. He was very informative about the after care. Both amazing people and the shop itself is great. Would go back again for sure!!!

I luvvv this place the front desk guy is literally the best and is so so nice. Very informative too he always makes sure you feel like you get the jewelry you want, and is willing to go above and beyond to help. I go to this Blackhole bc of service like his. He makes the space inviting and comfortable esp since getting a piercing or tattoo can be a very personal experience.

Review №26

I initially came in for a belly button piercing but after taking a look, Damian concluded that I didn’t have the correct anatomy for it. I was really grateful that he told me this to save me from a painful healing process. He also offered to give me another piercing and I thought, why not get the eyebrow piercing I’ve been thinking about? So we did it and I LOVEEE it. The placement is perfect and the jewelry is a perfect fit. I was sent home with thorough aftercare instructions and a bottle of saline wound wash. Will definitely come back for future piercings 😌

Got my nostril pierced by Austin. An incredible experience! He was funny, very informative, and helpful throughout the entire process. Also encouraged you to breathe through your piercing session which reduced the pain and nerves a lot! Front desk staff was very helpful and professional as well. Great experience overall and would come back for more piercings!

I brought my daughter in to have her ears pierced. They were so amazing with her. They made sure she was ready and comfortable as well as making sure she understood the process before the piercing. They were quick and made the process as pain free as possible. We couldnt have been happier!

I am a 73 yr old gramma who had an earlobe pierced and the other lobe reopened. (Originally pierced 60 years ago) The waiting room, and the procedure room were spotless, the front desk gentlemen was polite and helpful. The star had to be Austen. He was funny, calming, professional, and explained every step of the way. He explained why and corrected a piercing misalignment from the past. A wonderful and skilled craftsman who made the whole procedure a great experience. Highly recommend Black Hole.

I’m done being gaslit about my awful experience. February of 22’ I made an appointment with Rachel to get my Jestrum done. Went in, got it done, she told me to come back in a couple weeks to downsize. I went in to get my bar downsized, I then inquired that evening if I could purchase a smaller gemstone for my Jestrum. She was more than willing to help, she ordered the product there and then since it wasn’t in stock at location and took my card information for that order. She told me it should arrive in a few months and she would call me when available for pick up. I left, waited for months, never received a call. Went in March of 23’, discussed what had happened with a man at the front desk (tall, bald guy with a beard) and he checked the system for my purchase. He saw a $40 charge from that downsize appointment and told me it appeared that I had indeed purchased that gemstone during that appointment. He told me he was sorry for the inconvenience, handed me the order pamphlet of gemstones, told me to show him the one I had initially ordered, and then told me to pick another one off the pamphlet on the house (free) due to the inconvenience. I thanked him and he had me sign a paper with my contact information for pickup. I waited a month, no response. My mother was with me when I had picked out the two pieces of jewelry, she was confused why I had not been called about the purchase yet and worked near the area so she inquired the same man about the update on the purchase and it’s availability. The man said they were available but we had to pay $60. My mother was confused obviously as this didn’t align with the previous interaction. She retold the situation to him, he then started claiming that I never purchased the product to begin with and only came in last month to purchase the gemstones because I loved the prices. The man refused to acknowledge my payment and kept insisting that I intentionally WANTED to purchase the two gemstones. My mother got so frustrated with his lies that she started to get offended as he started stating that they would never offer free product and that isnt how their business ran, insinuating that we were LYING about the situation for free product. My mother left enraged at these false claims, she felt targeted as a foreign woman with a thick accent and felt these liar claims were deliberately placed on her because of that. I went back to Blackhole the day after to clear the air with bank statements. The same man was there, I told him the situation once again, he got visibly upset and said my mother was in there the other day and treated him and his shop poorly because they couldnt provide free product. When inquired about what she had said that was so bad, he had nothing to say, just stated that I should ask her myself. I showed my bank statements from March of 22 with the $40 charge towards during the downsize appointment towards the gemstone I never received. He pulled up the same statement on his computer, then began to say that the charge wasnt for the gemstone it was for the down sizing appointment? This of course frustrated me since he said I did indeed pay for it a month prior. His statement that the gemstones didn’t even cost $40 is strange considering he wanted to charge me there and then $60 for two gems (around 30 each). The man went on the same speech to me as my mother claiming we were trying to get free product (why would I waste so much time “scamming” you out of a poor quality plastic gem?) and he called me a “little girl” when I started sobbing. I’m a paying adult customer not a little girl, which is so incredibly sexist. I left infuriated in tears, being lied and accused of something Im not. I now realize I have been deceived and coerced into giving this business more money. It was all lies, he manipulated the situation to coerce myself as a vulnerable young woman into spending more money on the business. Never go here, this place is a scam, liars that lack a basic moral compass when confronted. Also sexist and xenophobic. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Very professional and clean. We went in for piercings as a group of 4. Our piercing pro was Jason and he was wonderful. We were able to all go back together which helped calm our nerves and made it more fun. Plus Jason was a fun individual and was a pleasure to talk to. Everything was sanitized between each piercing and Jason explained every step along the way so we knew what to expect. Also the jewelry is implant grade and they offer a large selection of gems and colors/sizes. I would highly recommend Black Hole to anyone looking for a professional piercing studio.

Review №35

I could not have had a better experience getting my helix (cartilage) pierced a couple of weeks ago. I was anxious and I had only had my lobes pierced 15 years ago. I have been wanting this piercing for a long time but was too anxious about it. Damian was patient and caring. Made sure I was as comfortable as possible and helped me with the anxiety. It has been healing great even with how sensitive my skin/ears are. I would give more stars if I could.

I had a navel piercing done by Rachael and my partner had their ears pierced, it was the best experience we could have asked for! The piercings came out perfect, and Rachael made sure to get consent for and explain everything she was doing which is comforting regardless of whether youve been pierced a million times (like me) or its your first piercing (like my partner). If youre especially nervous (or just want an amazing piercing) Rachael is definitely the person to go to!

These guys are fantastic. Over the past few years I have worked with several members of their staff & every experience has been exceptional. They have done 5 of my tattoos - currently working on a cover up from a bad one I got at Adorn years ago (photo below) - I have brought my two best friends and both of my brothers here for their first tattoos (also shown below). I have even had my nose pierced here twice and a couple different spots on my ears. They are always fun and very patient with my picky girly nonsense. I have had a number of pieces done elsewhere and I will never again go to anyone else. Their artwork is fantastic and their needle work is flawless. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Perfect! Costumer services is amazing. I needed my piercings to be removed due a medical procedure. I have a conch piercing, is hard to be removed and put it back on my own.

Horrible customer service experience, I called to schedule an appointment to install my piecing and I had to hear all about the person who did my piercing quit and left them hanging.

I dont think anyone has ever hung up on me - very unprofessional. I dont feel safe going into the Beaverton location to even pick up my jewelry - i want a full refund.

The staff was amazing and the piercing was great! Super welcoming. The only reason I only have 2 stars was because the website prices are not even close to being the end price. I paid more than triple the online amount and I drove 35 min to get the piercing and didn’t want the drive to be a waste of time. I was not happy about it at all but I’m too much of a people pleaser to have said otherwise so I just paid it. So definitely expect to pay way more than the online price

They allowed me to not only take my time choosing my jewelry, they explained (by writing everything down) the costs, medals and procedure completely.

I love the people here. I only subtracted a star because for my very first tattoo, the artist (and I dont remember his name) walked away to talk to someone about a tattoo, after telling me that when you leave it and come back, it hurts more. I love the work he did, solid color, hasnt faded in any weird way. That one thing really threw me off. Again though, I absolutely love the artists and piercers here, theyve done multiple piercings in my family and theyre all placed perfectly.

I went in to see if my lobe piercings had closed, and Rachel was able to re-open them (I guess they hadnt fully closed, so no re-pierce was needed).

It was just such a wonderful experience, I am now using them exclusively going forward.

I had my septum done at another shop, and the end came off. No one was available at the shop I went to, so I called here. They were great! I loved the atmosphere for one, and their customer service was superb. My jewelry wasnt compatible with theirs, and the jewelry ended up breaking because it had given him some hope and he was trying to save me from having to buy a brand new piece of jewelry. Im not upset that it broke at all, because I was super happy that they were trying to help me. I ended up with a new piece of jewelry discounted for the broken piece. I thank you guys for being great, and helping me out!

The whole experience was very professional, from scheduling to check out, and we appreciated all of their precautions around safety during COVID. Highly recommend!

I got my septum pierced by Colter the other day. It was my first piercing and it couldn’t have gone better. Everything was explained to me beforehand and during the process. Final price was comparable to what was advertised on the website, and communicated to me before the process started. 10/10 for kind, compassionate folks and a clean, sterile environment.

Piercers here are very knowledgeable and willing to answer any and all questions to make sure you get the information you need to have the best experience possible. They never fail to give the best advice and are just great humans! I dont have a lot of experience with the tattoo folks here, but the times I have talked with them and then sat while they tattooed others has been just as impressive as the piercing side.

Im a newer supporter here. However. I found BlackHole after having been a client at Paramount in Portland. I found with BlackHole & staff that its a much more personal experience. None of the feeling like being on a production line. Rachel was the piercer we got lucky enough to be introduced to and she was amazing. She walked my daughter (NOT her 1st body piercing)thru the piercing procedure step by step which she really appreciated. She educated her on properly caring for the new piercing and even gave her info for the long term. Quick, steady hands and a straight lineup with proper placement show just how experienced she was. On a personal level I consulted with her on some more extreme or complicated placement of piercings and her knowledge is vast! Really looking forward to having more done with her!!On the practical side..yes you may see some higher prices here over the conveyer belt style shops that focus on volume. Thats because its a more experienced staff using higher quality materials and equipment. Its well worth it!Yes, theyre booked months in advance at times..however, check frequently as they get cancelations. Again. Its worth the wait!

Second time Ive been here for a facial piercing and Ill be back for many more! They are very respectful, always asking for permission when touching your face, asking for your pronouns, and help you through the process of the piercing itself. None of my friends have had their piercing that was done here get infected or reject, and the quality of the jewelery itself is very nice. 10/10 would recommend

I gotta say Colton absolutely saved me last night when a 15 year old piercing I had became logged in my skin. He saw me at the end of the night with no notice. He not only fixed my piercing but had to think outside of the box in order to do so. Being a mother of three with one kiddo old enough to get pierced and the other two not farbehind, Ill be referring others and bringing all my future piercing needs to himThank you so very much !!!

Went in today because my Tragus piercing had fallen out and needed to be replaced. I called to make sure they would be able to do it (It was relatively late into the evening) and they were beyond friendly and helpful on the phone. I came in and was immediately greeted by two women, asked what I needed, given multiple options. I ended up leaving with new tragus and double nostril jewelry. They are so quick, friendly, informative. Absolutely amazing, I 100% recommend this place to anyone. I will definitely be going back.

Really sweet people! Wonderful customer service. I went in to have 4 ear piercings done today, my step-daughter had 2. Otto & Mateo provided service for us. They were instantly warm, welcoming, & sincere. Both thoroughly explained everything, gladly answered all our questions, gave great advice & suggestions and assisted us in selecting the right jewelry without any upselling motives or pressure. I really appreciated that. The shop and procedure was very clean and professional. Mateo was so endearing, personable, professional, made us feel totally comfortable and relaxed, and ensured everything was right and that we were happy. Highly recommend and definitely will return in the future. Thank you Otto & Mateo for a lovely experience & piercings.

I came in here with my eleven year old son because he wanted to get his ears pierced for his birthday. He ended up getting nervous and changed his mind at the last minute, but everyone was amazing with him. I believe Rachael was his piercer and she was very open, honest and patient. I really appreciate the constant vigilance about consent and what that means because it’s something I am always trying to teach him. Even though we left without getting anything done, I feel confident that this will be a great place to come again in the future. I also appreciated the attention to cleanliness, especially now.

I had a tattoo done by Mark on crazy short notice because Im super impulsive. I picked what I wanted and in less than 2 hours he had it drawn up and I was on the table. I absolutely love it and cant wait to get back up and add to it. I would also highly recommend Mike as well, hes done other work for me and it is hard to choose between the two of them. Ive been going here for 10 years now and it is still 100% top notch on all fronts. I love the gals at the front! They are so warm and welcoming and are always checking on me, cracking jokes, and making it an upbeat atmosphere. 10 stars for Black Hole!!!!!!

Review №101

My best friend recommended the location in Beaverton, as that’s where she had her piercings done. It was a bit far for me to go, so I went to the location on Glisan.The guy who did my piercing was funny and maintained a very clean working environment. I can’t say it was painless because all piercings hurt (at least for me anyway), but aside from that, everything was smooth and I can say it was even fun with the gal out front and the guy who did the piercing (Matt). They were patient while I decided on what piece of jewelry to get and helpful answering questions. The prices are reasonable and the customer service was great. My new nostril piercing looks perfect too. I highly recommend this place for piercings!

Review №103

This is the only place I go to for piercings any more. I have had both Rachel and Matteo, and they are both fantastic, and if you are scared of needles or have a low pain tolerance, I highly recommend either of them for receiving a piercing.(TL;DR at the end, as this seems like an essay.)For reference, I have a very low pain tolerance, and an extreme fear of needles, so I typically need someone there with me to keep my mind off of the fact that I am receiving a piercing, and experiencing, in my opinion, excruciating pain.When I was getting my second lobe piercing done a few years ago, my mother was in the room with me, holding my hand, and talking about One Direction to distract me. Rachel immediately jumped in with my mother to talk to me about One Direction to keep me distracted. In most environments, I am heavily judged for being an adult and liking One Direction, but Rachel made me feel like I was in a safe and non-judgmental environment the entire time, and I barely felt the piercings because of it. I have not had someone so kindly jump in on a conversation about One Direction with me since.With Matteo, I have not had my mother in the room when I have received piercings from him, but he sets a calm environment from the beginning, and is polite the entire time, even if others in the room are being rude. He made me feel comfortable from the get-go, and when I was getting a friendship piercing with a friend of mine, he had me go first, as I was the most anxious about getting my cartilage (helix) piercing, so seeing my friend receiving her cartilage piercing would not cause any undue anxiety on my part, and I was fine because of it.Both Rachel and Matteo have made my piercing experiences safe and comfortable, and they are 2 out of the only 3 people I trust in the entire world for my piercings, with the third being in Dublin, Ireland.I have also had great experiences with the people in the front, as they are always kind, and I never feel like I am being talked to condescendingly as I have with other places, as I am not covered in tattoos, nor do I have many piercings that can be seen immediately.(TL;DR)For anyone who is scared about receiving piercings, or has a low pain tolerance, I would highly recommend Black Hole Piercing & Tattoo of Beaverton, Oregon, as the people at the front desk are very kind, and both Rachel and Matteo provide the safest environment when getting piercings.

Im a super impulsive person. So Ive been thinking about getting this tattoo for A WHILE. but never really did anything about it. Until today, I impulsively called them and asked if they could do it today. Not only did they happen to have time today, but it turned out SO FRIGGIN AMAZING. Brianna (hope Im spelling that correctly) was so sweet and when she drew it up (after me giving very little description, sorry😬), she drew EXACTLY what I wanted without me even knowing before hand that was what I wanted it exactly to look like. She did such a beautiful job! I LOVE IT SO MUCH! And also it being my first tattoo, she was so nice, understanding and just, everything. I couldnt of asked for a better experience. thank you guys so much. Im so happy with my tattoo❤❤❤.

I have been going to Black Hole ( Beaverton ) for 5 yrs now. Street parking has always been available. Since COVID, they have changed visit protocol. Otto was very professional and friendly. He was able to clearly explain the check in process as they are now appointment based. I have been seeing Rachael for all my piercing needs. She is very knowledgeable and patient. Never judges you for your questions. Always pleasant to have a conversation with. I dont ever feel rushed to pick out my jewelry. If piercings didnt take as long as they do to heal, I would probably be here more often!

My 4.5 year old has been begging to get her ears pierced since she was 3. We decided it was time. Even though their shop policy is usually a minimum of 5 years old, they told me to bring her in and see how she reacted to the environment. Definitely understandable since they cant be flailing around.Thankfully Matteo was there to pierce her ears. He was outstanding with my daughter. Shes been going around telling people about the funny guy that pierced her ears. He cracked jokes with her and made her feel completely at ease. He was even a nanny at one point in his life.Everything was very clean and sterile and we have had no issues with the piercing. Of course, she cried a little but she was so brave and it definitely helped having a great piercer. Thank you Matteo! And thank you to the lady at the front desk. I think her name was Lainie. She was very friendly and helped my daughter feel at ease too.

Came in here 4 years ago to get my naval pierced. They turned me away because I “didn’t have the right anatomy for a naval piercing” and said she couldn’t pierce it. Way to make a 17 year old feel bad about their tummy lol. Well, I went somewhere right after and they pierced it no problem and were very professional about it, I’ve had it for years and it’s healed perfectly and never migrated. I still don’t know why they told me that and wouldn’t pierce it, they pierced my friend that came in with me no problem and had the same exact looking “naval anatomy”.

I brought my 8 year old daughter to get her ears pierced for her birthday wish. She was nervous because the last time she had her ears pierced at Claire’s, it was very traumatic and painful. We ended up taking out her earrings and the piercing closed. So we decided to try again at The Black Hole. TBH I wasn’t sure how it would go, but I read the good reviews and hoped for the best. Well, they FAR exceeded my expectations and made my daughter’s birthday wish come true! No tears and anxiety with this piercing thanks to Matteo and the lovely Burr!!! You guys made this Mama so happy because of the huge smile on my daughter’s face when she saw her new sparkly earrings. Thank you all so much!!!

I recieved my first tattoo on Sunday at the Beaverton location and am absolutely thrilled with the results!! I went in with a drawing and an idea and some colors in mind (only took ke 40 years to figure out what i wanted ...lol). Everyone in the shop was EXTREAMLY kind and professional! I was very impressed with the cleanliness and brightness of the shop. Jay listened to what i wanted, and made some recomendations. I gave him my drawing and set up an appointment for the next day. I was super excited, when finally it was the next day and time for my appointment. When he showed me what he came up with from my drawing and just by talking to me i felt tears come to my eyes, its like he pulled the image right out of the picture in my head. He was extreamly patient and explained everything! Its been 3 days now and Im still absolutly amazed at how awesome it is! And to top it off the price he originally quoted me was more than what he ended up charging me when all was said and done. I would highly recommend Black Hole to all my friends. (I already cant wait to go get my next one) Thank You Jay for an amazing tattoo!!!!

I couldnt be happier with my experience at this shop. My piercing and other times Ive come to see friends piercings have all been done very quickly and professionally, and the quality of work is flawless. Thanks Matteo!

Very busy, we couldnt even talk to someone for 20 minutes. This place is very knowledgeable and you can be sure they wont lead you astray just to get a sale. Plan ahead and dont expect to walk in and get a piercing done ( like my 15 yo did).

I have my septum pierced and the piercing had come out. (Granted, I didnt have it pierced at black hole, but you would assume a piercing place can help you put it back in). I go in a couple Fridays ago and it was busy, but I figured it only takes two seconds to put it back in (I know I should be able to do it myself, but my nails are long and I cant....get over it). The girl at the front counter said we dont have time for an install. Thanks for understanding. All in one sentence. First of all, no I dont understand. And second of all, right after that I happened to go to rite aid and the girl behind the counter had the same piercing, I asked her to do it, she went on break and did it! 😂😂😂😂 #riteaideknowscustomerservice #thanksfornothingblackhole

They were so friendly! I came in to get a lobe piercing that had partially closed re-opened, brought my own jewelry, and they did it all free of charge!

Horrible customer service. Was told I could be fit in for my 6p appointment early. Ended up waiting another hour. I understand Covid and hope things get better. At least better front end customer service would be helpful.

Michael did a great job fixing a tattoo from a previous artist. He was sort of funny while also being kind of a jerk and douchey tho. Unfortunately when wanting to add on to it with some flowers, he really didnt capture what I wanted at all. Upon coming back to let him know he was nonchalant and could honestly care less. He also wanted me to pay more for HIS permanent mistake on my skin. I definitely do not reccomemend him for flowers lol.

Not impressed with the reservation service. Waited outside for 20 minutes for my appt only to have the person working inside tell me I shouldve gotten an email stating they had no one to help me purchase a piece of jewelry. I did not get any email, but did get a text confirming my appt. Very inconvenient.

I came in to get a piercing re-done. I bought two pieces of jewelry for my ears and the piercer was able to punch through my previous piercing and which in turn saved me the piercing fee. - Happy Customer

They are the place I go to for all tattoos and piercings. I got a tongue piercing in california. And I still call them with questions because they are open later and either always answer or call back when they can.
