I came here to change my tragus earring and my start to finish experience was excellent.I DMed the shop and they got back to me quickly. When I went to get it changed, the sir was friendly, professional and quick.The place is clean, comfortable and the music was trap, which I love.

Called 3x before closing time to ask a question and each time my call was rejected. Called 3x because I thought maybe their lines were down but each time, the phone rang at different intervals. Never even got to speak to someone

My sister and I got our noses re-pierced here. I was nervous because I heard it was $30 and it came with the ring, so naturally I assumed it would not be too great however Franky was pretty good. He was very clean and fast. I think my only thing (and it’s minuscule) is that it wasn’t how I pierced my nose the first time (which was from inside out and the nose ring doesn’t have a screw) but you get what you pay for. My nose piercing has felt fine I’ve been cleaning twice a day and with tea tree oil, it has been 5 days and it feels just fine!

The person who did my piercing was nice and didnt charge me for my septum because we couldnt get the needle through. However, my rating comes from serious missteps that someone who doesnt know piercings could be in trouble.Firstly, he used a piercing gun. Big no-no that could leave serious damage. My ear which has a hole already just needed it repierced is aching horribly. Left with a massive headache because of the pain.Secondly, didnt offer after care for my piercing. Which I do know is a must or at least educate the customer on how to keep it sterile. Granted, I know what to do but I have no after care supplies and wouldve appreciated some.Thirdly, and this is my experience. He couldnt get the piercing entirely through which I think is due to a low grade needle. I bled a lot. While I did have it done before and scar tissue makes it more painful and bleeds too. But I think the amount of pain I was under to the point of fainting is indicative of something going wrong on their side.Overall, I wasnt happy with the service but I do agree he was a nice man and didnt charge me for a service he couldnt complete.

Didn’t wash hand after placing piercing or picked up my jewelry after choosing And haven’t gave an explanation of the side affects of the jewelry etc.

Ive been going here since 2012 & I have no complaints. The majority of my body piercings were done here, as well as a tattoo. Of course, I plan on going back to do more work. Its a great place, with great service & great people😉 Two thumbs up

As someone with multiple tattoos, I am very familiar with how the process of getting a body modification should go, and this is NOT IT! Very unprofessional service, unfriendly, cold obnoxious demeanors, besides the fact that the phone number is not in service. When I walked in to inquired about the service I was interested in, the guy in the front, called another guy, that made a sigh as if he did not want perform the service, they then begun to have a side conversation in front of me, en español , about not wanting to work. Not knowing I could understand them, to make my unsatisfactory experience even worse, I wasted an entire trip being that their payment processing machine “was not working” although I witnessed the customer prior to me transact with card.

I got many tattoos done here. The artist change all of the time. U just have to ask to see their work before u get anything done there. Frankie is good he has been there for six years and has done many of my piercings. He tattoos as well but is the main piercer there. Again ask for the artist work before getting anything done and u will save yourself from getting into a bad experience.

I got a tattoo here . It’ll make three weeks Monday and my tattoo is still ugly and looks sick honestly. I went to another artist and they said it looks this Way because the machine was running low on in ink so it didn’t sink in my skin properly I paid 60$ for it but 110 overall in the shop. I’ve been emailing and calling getting an answer on either. If I were u just go somewhere else it isn’t worth the risk of permanently ruining your skin. And still three weeks later no email or phone call back.

They have the worse customer service ever. They have a thing for wasting people’s time. If you ask them a question they answer with a completely unrelated question. Their tattoo work is sloppy and they aren’t good with working on darker skin. The man at the front desk of this location is super rude and has bad manners.

I went for a ear piercing for my left lobe and took like 50 bucks thinking it will be at least 30. But when I went there the guy did mine for 5 bucka. I was surprised by how cheap the place was. The guy did a good job and did it in the right spot.

Called the location and spoke to someone who informed me they were open, and I didn’t need an appointment they close at 9pm. I told them I was coming for 6:30pm but he said it would be better to come in for 8pm. Get to the location the door was locked and someone from inside yelled they were closed. So why tell me to come for 8pm if that was the case. Horrible customer service from the start.
