HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Got my second tattoo there today and absolutely LOVE it!! Derek did a phenomenal job, I couldn’t ask for a better tattoo. The environment is very friendly and welcoming and the staff takes good care of you!! I will never go anywhere else for a tattoo, best experience I have had. My fiancé also got her second tattoo done by Summer and loves it!! Thank your Crown Tattoo, you have outdone yourself!

Derek was an awesome piercer to work with. He took extra care to make my double nostril piercings symmetrical. He made me feel comfortable and was really fun to talk to. The piercings were quick and didnt hurt that bad at all. Ill be coming back for any piercings I want in the future.

Derek was sooo great to work with! Called for an impromptu walk in while I had an unexpected layover at the airport. He was able to take me within the hour and dedicated his time to draw out my vision and made it look even better than I could’ve imagined!! He was so kind and patient and was just overall a really good vibe and great conversationalist. Was one of the first tattoo experiences I’ve had that didn’t feel completely transactional. Thank you so much Derek!!

My Husband has got supplies from this guy for over 20 something years, and today we went and found out, he no longer is selling individual products but, by the box and for us that is not helpful. We only do business as a hobby and so yea needless to say we were very disappointed to say the least.

No Stars , the lady was very sweet & patient knowing my sister was really scared to get her piercing . But over all the Guy was really RUDE constantly making rude remarks literally the Whole time and he was just Ina rush to get it done . like people are allowed to be scared it’s normal . I do not reccomend-1/10. also the shop was very Messy had boxes everywhere. Not a lot of walking space tbh

Visiting her from Texas and I absolutely enjoyed my experience here! Came for BFF tattoos and ended up getting another piece done also. Derek and his daughter were absolutely amazing to work with. I appreciated the knowledge and expertise he showed. Patience and professionalism were the key sellers in my book. I would definitely come back when I visit Charlotte again. Thanks again!

Chill environment, He is also professional patient and clean.. Awesome work.... Besides him telling his other clients that say who came in after me that I have dark tough skin I love my tattoos.. Definitely found my new tattoo artist.. I just wish he was up front about not doing face and neck tattoos and what he willing to do as in the tattoo details.. he refused to finished my tattoo because my guys was smoking a blunt and he said he doesnt do those details . I paid 500.

0 stars I felt rushed with my piercings to the point I didn’t even get it. He kept talking to me n my sister very rude. Also told me I am forced to get a bigger bar for my piercing because I am black. His assistant was even upset by the way he was acting. Hes very rude 0/10 do not recommend

Review №17

My septum piercing hurt so bad afterwards and the guy that did it didn’t even make sure I was ready or anything. I felt very rushed and my friend felt rushed as well. He said to the lady doing her nose “just leave it. She isn’t getting it, we have more important stuff to do” when my friend was trying to calm down to be able to get the piercing. Then the guy that did my piercing didn’t ask if I was okay, didn’t ask where I wanted it. He just shoved needles in places and didn’t even ask where I wanted it and didn’t even warn me when he did it. I wish I could do 0 stars, because I would NEVER recommend this place for piercings for anybody

This place is awesome. I have many ear piercings and have been to many places over the years. Derek actually cares about placement of your piercing and quality of the jewelry. Also he is great to get along with. Will be coming again and recommending to my friends. I have yet to find a decent piercing place in Charlotte and now I found it. 10/10

Review №19

Derek was absolutely great! Personal energy was great from the get go. Him and Maya were graciously accommodating when I wasnt feeling too well midway through my tattoo on Monday. I felt valued. Derek also gave me key tattoo advice on body placement going forward with my future tattoos. Always appreciate an artists feedback on my ideas. 30 years experience in tattooing, you cannot go wrong with Crown Custom.

I got my tattoo done here by derek, who was so nice. he made a couple changes to the tattoo design (he did run them by me first and made sure i liked them) and it looked incredible! he was very kind and welcoming, had extensive knowledge and experience, and was overall an incredible person. the shop is decorated so well, it is clean, organized and sanitary i will be coming here next time i have a tattoo that i want done. his personality, work and shop were all so amazing, i would highly recommend this shop.

I came in from a previous shop where I got my second lobe piercing done, and I was looking to find a second opinion since my ear was very irritated, and I found this shop. Taylor made sure to proceed and fix what was wrong. I cant thank Taylor enough; she made me feel safe and talked to me through everything. I never leave reviews anywhere, but Im honestly amazed at the professionalism and friendliness Taylor and her dad have. I will most definitely be coming again. I highly recommend anyone who is looking for somewhere to go for a piercing or tattoos to come here, Taylor and Derek are marvelous :)

Review №26

Derek is 3/3 on me. He doesnt miss. His approach is very mindful and present, he takes into account your body for what it is and doesnt tattoo you like its just a body. He will use a combination of colors, shading and weight (thickness/darkness of a line) to make sure your desired tattoo is visible at the right angles & distance and durable on your skin to the best of his ability. His line work is tight! Its been 5 or 6 years and Im still asked if my tattoo is new. Thats why I had to come on here and let yall know Derek Crockett is the truth. He is also as human as they. So dont anticipate that hell turn off his humanity and tattoo you like a tattoo robot but also trust that he wont ask you to be anything other than your full human self either. So be weird and/or set your boundaries, knowing that he is understanding and will be glad to know what makes you comfortable. Communicate at any point throughout the process and he will certainly do the same. Hell take great care of you and inform you of anything youre not sure about. Please dont assume anything until you ask, cause he will respond in ways that might renew your faith in people.

Review №27

I got my ears pierced by the owners daughter, she was amazing. She checked my old spots to see if she could just re pierce the old spots, and got a second opinion from the owner before preceding.I was so comfortable in the shop that I decided to return a week later, to get my memorial tattoo done. (I miscarried twice before learning about my infertility) the owner of the shop was thorough, he made sure to size the tattoo for my arm, he also made me feel relaxed and comfortable as he brought my memorial tattoo to life,He truly makes at because I nearly cried when I saw it all done

Review №29

Was looking at finding the nearest piercer and this happened to come up and after looking at reviews, I decided to call and check if they were open and available. The girl on the phone was lovely to talk to, straight forward and answered my questions without making me feel like Im a pain in the butt 😊 Once I got there, I was able to check on with Maya and they had me fill out paperwork and provide valid identification along with some COVID-19 paperwork. She was nice and got me prepped so I would be ready for Derek and getting my piercing done. I had already had my right ear tragus pierced years ago and wanted to match it on the left side. Derek listened to my overall concerns and answered all my questions and was knowledgeable, skilled and efficient which is what you want in a piercer. The whole experience was great and I highly recommend him and this shop!

Review №32

Words cannot describe how amazing my tattoo is. The movement of the piece was perfectly complimented with the colors we chose together! The attention to detail and creative spirit of this man cannot be captured in words. This is my 10th tattoo... but until this last one, I never knew what it was like to have a complete experience. If you are looking for someone with some serious skill, heart and creativity... this is your guy!EDIT: I had to have an MRI for an injury, and his skilled staff was able to remove 25 year old cartilage piercing without blinking an eye! I was convinced I was going to have to cut the earring out !!!... THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! :)SECOND EDIT: Had some issues with my ear piercings, and recieved expert advice on ear care and time frames for healing! My fears are always put to rest when I visit the shop for my piercings and tattoos! Thank you so much for the wonderful attention to every minute detail. Will be back soon I am sure !

Derek is an amazing artist!! He did a scar cover up piece for me (last minute as a walk in) and gave me a great price. He was consistently making sure I was alright and he was very reassuring when he realized it was going to be a scar cover up. He kept me and my sister laughing throughout my appointment. I don’t think I’ll ever get a tattoo from any other shop but his.

My experiences at Crown have simply been AMAZING. Derek not only sang softly to me while he tattooed me, but he rubbed my feet afterward and held me while I cried. Im totally kidding.

Review №55

I see some of the reviews on this shop that are poor reviews, however.. This shop is AMAZING. My neck tattoo, arm tattoos I have from him are great. The only ones that arent are the ones I did not have done by Derick himself. They are from different shops and because of that I no longer will go to anyone else. He fixed my snakebites and my ear piercings done by another shop. I seen reviews saying hes not on time.. Granted, maybe you dont always get into the shop when desired but he has a tight schedule and tries to please everyone. This man does not rush his work and that should be appreciated if anything. Some appointments may take longer. As the artist youd have to take into account placement, the healing process of where its going and etc.. He does this. He will not do a tattoo if he knows its not going to hold up. As far as personality goes, he has a strong one! The owner isnt rude by any means. He is great and I highly reccomend this place!

Let me start by saying I am very pleased with the ink laid down at crown. I started my day by looking for a shop that was open on Jan 1. I went to all the well known shops in Charlotte of which 2 of them I had the pleasure of getting ink laid at a high price tag. When I entered crown the first impression was this is a hole in the wall shop not some were I want to get a tattoo but he was Laying a chest piece on a guy . I really didnt like what the guy was getting but to each their own. I was interested in the artists line work. He was clean and fluid. I then showed him what I wanted and without hesitation he said he can do it with a bit of excitement then told me the price and I was sold. Still skeptical I came back and was very happy with the result. Thank you 👑 I still have enough in budget for next tattoo.

We randomly picked the closet tattoo place we was near and was not disappointed. Derrick was not only super friendly but also AMAZING. Will definitely be going back and I highly recommend.

Could not have asked for better service, care, or result. The environment was well maintained and clean, the work was careful, the artist was kind, considerate, and walked me through the whole process, and the result was exactly what I wanted. I would 100% recommend Crown Custom Tattoo studios!!!

I visited Derrick today in search of just a new nose ring....turns out the issue was not my nose ring itself but the way the previous shop in Gastonia pierced my nose and the type of nose ring they used :( Though I was not prepared and on my lunch break, Derrick was able to look and locate the issue, and correct my piercing as well as provide quality jewelry. I trust him sooo much I am going to see how much it will be for a tattoo correction!! (moral of the story - get it done right the first time - By Derrick @ Crown Tattoos :) :) Thanks again Derrick!!!!
