My first time at Mister Finster’s and definitely won’t be the last. This is my favorite tattoo by far and I can’t wait to come in next! The amount of details and time Fin took on this really show. The studio was also amazing and such a relaxing, chill space. Thank you !!
Ive seen Amy twice for jewelry changes, sizing, and troubleshooting assistance. Each time, she provided exemplary and efficient service. She took time to listen and ensure everything is to my liking, plus she explained what she was doing each step of the way. Overall, the studio takes cleanliness seriously and offers fairly priced gold and titanium jewelry options. I will continue to visit Mister Finsters for my piercing-related needs.
From the level of customer service to the quality of their work, Mister Finsters is a cut above the rest. I recently got a tattoo here and man does it look nice. I got my ink done by Rusty, the current guest artist and Im in love with it. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a quality tattoo to stop by here to check them out. Thanks again for the awesome job guys!
I’ve been going to this Mister Finsters basically since it opened and stayed loyal to the shop since. All the tattoo artists have their own amazing style but I’ve been going to James for almost 2 years now. James has A LOT of talent and takes his time to make each piece perfect and make sure you’re 100% happy with it. Each session with him have always gone by so smoothly and also enjoyable because he’s so easy to talk to, I get the most compliments from his pieces and I’ll keep going to him until I’m done with tattoos…which isn’t anytime soon.Thanks James, you’re the best!
The owner Fin is phenomenal. I have been a long time client of Fin and I keep coming back because of the impeccable service and amazingly talented artist he is. I am paralyzed and he always goes above and beyond to make sure I’m comfortable as he tattooes me and offers me any breaks if I need them. Great artist and great person with a stellar intent. His shop is always clean and a welcoming environment to relax and get some new art. All the artists there are very professional and their work is stunning. Can’t go wrong by checking out this shop but especially fin as I promise you will not leave disappointed. I am locked in as a life long client.
My first tattoo and was definitely nervous as I have a very low pain tolerance.Kara very understanding and gentle throughout - basically she was amazing! She made sure I was comfortable with both the design (we made several edits which she was more than happy to do) and the process.Will definitely go back for more once this one fully heals.
Excellent experience. Chelsea was super flexible when I had to reschedule, and when I finally had my session I was comfortable the entire time. Chelsea was friendly and professional, and did an incredible job with my tattoo.The studio is a very cool vibe as well and I loved the throwback alt rock playlist.
From the moment I walked in I felt the authenticity, personability, and warmth from everyone at Mr. Finster’s. Not your ordinary tattoo and piercing shop; the unique combination of kindness and talent are truly what sets this shop above all others. The shop is clean and spacious. Fin is a fantastic artist and a genuinely thoughtful human being. I highly recommend to both experienced in the seat and first timers!
My first tattoo and it really wrecked the experience. It was the most painful thing I can ever describe. So painful. So so painful. The line work was mid. I just got it touched up elsewhere. It felt like he was cutting into my bone. Could not recommend. For real it was so painful. The artist was definitely doing something wrong.
Located in the heart of Falls Church, Mister Finster’s provides a welcoming and collaborative environment for all Tattooing. Fin, James & Chelsea are all incredible and talented artists that will not disappoint. Traditional, Geometric, Full Color and Black & Gray are all represented!
Amy was amazingly patient with my 7 year old niece for her first piercing. She walked her through everything from jewelry selection, to the sterilization, and then the piercing process, and let her set the pace. She made my niece feel like the client and gave her agency over the whole experience.I also got a tragus to add to my collection, and it was quick and painless!Definitely recommend Amy for first-time and more experienced piercings.
Absolutely phenomenal shop. From the first email with concepts to the actual inscribing of the tattoo this place gets top marks from me.Fin responded promptly, and honestly to my email and set me up with an artist in his shop who he thought would be best to work on the piece/style I wanted. The artist, Rusty, was quick to reply to emails and had everything set and ready to go when I arrived day of.The shop itself is clean and tidy and the staff at the front were super friendly and quick to get my paperwork done up. The tattoo studio is orderly and as clean a place as Ive ever seen.The tattoo itself turned out great and Im pretty sure Ive found my shop of choice going forward.
Had a great experience getting my second ever tattoo here. I was a little worried after a less-than-ideal first experience at another shop years ago but Chelsea took great care of me and I felt totally confident in her. She was friendly and made me feel comfortable during the consultation and the actual tattooing. The shop was also clean and a nice environment. Will definitely return and ask for her again.
This is my fourth piercing by Amy and I can’t say enough good things about her! She is knowledgeable, thoughtful in her recommendations, and so calming. The shop is clean, beautiful, and has a cool selection of pieces from different companies. I am SO happy with the piece I chose and how it turned out!
Fin is a master of his craft! I gave him some photos of my cat and asked him to design a comic strip for my left arm. His design took into account an existing band of sea waves already in place. I could not be more pleased! Thank you, Fin!
I was a earlobe piercings-only person until I realized I wanted some ear cartilage piercings, and Ive only come to Mr. Finsters for those. I got a flat in my left ear by Mimi last year and had such a great experience, I knew I wanted to come back here.I got a flat & conch in my right ear recently even though Ive moved to Maryland. The people here are so nice, knowledgeable, and caring. Jess and Holly helped talked me through what jewelry I wanted, and Holly did the piercing. I super appreciate them walking me through their jewelry options because I really went in with no idea what I wanted.For the piercings, Holly was great at explaining the whole process and listening to all my concerns. I was mostly nervous because Ive never gotten 2 cartilage piercings in the same appt before, and I wanted the flat placement to match the one in my other ear. Everything went smoothly and I feel educated on what the healing process will look like. I highly recommend this establishment for your piercing needs!
Loved the process and how easy Fin made it to get my new tattoo. Did my research and looked at other tattoos he had done and just loved his style! The process was easy and Fin was great at coordinating the appointment and working out a design that was just what i was looking for. Thanks Fin for a great experience!
It took forever to get into the room and finally get my ear pierced, my piercer took two other clients before me who were late to their appointment, while I had showed early to my scheduled appointment which was at I believe around 4:30 and I didn’t get home until at least 6:30. It is also unnecessarily expensive, it was $140 to get one conch piercing with a tiny stud. So basically go somewhere else unless your parents are paying in my opinion.
Love this place. I got a nostril and daith piercing done by Amy about a month ago. She is so sweet and friendly, while also being very knowledgeable and informative. Both of my piercings are healing beautifully, and I truly believe its because of Amys correct placement and experience.Ive had quite a few piercings done at different studios, and this is by far my favorite and best experience. They have so many lovely pieces of jewelry to choose from, and the vibe of the space is so chill and welcoming.I took my friend here to get her nose pierced yesterday, and she was nervous because its been a really long time since she has gotten a piercing. Amy was really great with her as well, and shes really happy with hers and the process. Thank you, guys!
I recently had the pleasure of getting a tattoo from Chelsea and the experience was fantastic. Their attention to detail and artistic skill truly set them apart. From the initial consultation to the final result, I felt like my vision was not only understood but exceeded. The studio was impeccably clean, and Chelsea maintained a professional yet friendly atmosphere throughout. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented and personable tattoo artist.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I recently had the pleasure of getting a tattoo done by Chelsea, and I couldnt be more thrilled with the result! Not only is she incredibly talented, but shes also a delight to work with—patient, attentive, and genuinely passionate about her craft. The design she created was even better than I imagined, and the precision in her work is truly remarkable. The studio ambiance was welcoming, and Chelseas professionalism made the entire experience seamless. If youre looking for a skilled tattoo artist who creates stunning, unique pieces, Chelsea is your go-to. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking top-notch artistry and a fantastic tattoo experience!
I’ve been coming here for piercings since this shop was brand new and have been doing my tattoos here for about 2 years now. When it comes to piercings, I’ve truly never been to a better tattoo shop. Everyone is so kind, professional, trustworthy and super knowledgeable. George specifically has always done my piercings and he’s just the best, but I would put my trust into any piercer who works here. He makes sure you’re comfortable, answers all your questions thoroughly and always walks you through what he’s doing during the piercing. Not to mention the fact that all the jewelry is extremely nice quality. In regards to tattoos, every artist here is incredibly talented, but I personally go to Fin. He’s an amazing artist and nothing short of professional. He also takes the time to make sure you’re comfortable and always goes above and beyond with what he does, and it shows in his work. The shop is decorated beautifully and is super warm and welcoming with nothing but good energy. Highly recommend coming here if you’re looking for a piercing or tattoo!
First time here for double nose piercing. I can say by far this is hands down the best experience I’ve ever had. Staff was veryyy professional, friendly, and patient and walked me through the whole process. Took lots of time and care to make certain I got the perfect size and the placement! Would give 10 stars if I could, will definitely be back :)
EDIT- just have to say that I have never had a cartilage piercing heal so fast. It looks amazing and I’m so happy with it. George did such a great job!This shop is incredible!! I will follow Fin anywhere and I am SO excited and happy that he opened his own shop! He is such a talented artist and any artist he brings in is just as good too! The vibe is awesome and the shop is so clean. Also got my cartilage pierced by George and the experience was flawless and I love it so much!! He was so professional and made sure I knew everything that was happening.Also got some awesome writing with my best friend from the guest artist Rusty!
Just got my septum pierced and wow not only is the space super clean but the experience was super smooth. George did my piercing and was so knowledgeable and kind, took time to explain everything in a super detailed way and did a great job. Everyone else was super nice too. Would definitely recommend this place.Add: Amy just did my tragus clearly all the staff here are amazing. Have zero need to go anywhere else, will continue to get all my piercings done here and recommend them to everyone!
Took my teen to get her ears pierced and had a brilliant experience! George was very informative and very accommodating. He walked us through every step of the process - from choosing the right earring, sterilization, the actual piercing, to aftercare. If youre in the market for piercings, I would highly recommend checking out Mr. Finsters.
When he recently to get a tattoo. Very easy to book an appointment. The artist was on time, very knowledgeable, and did a great job. I absolutely love my tattoo. Would absolutely recommend for a visit!
My girlfriend got a tattoo today and it was the most wonderful experience. Finn was amazing - his line work is spectacular. Staff was so friendly and the studio was clean and well appointed. Finn made us feel very welcome and I highly recommend. Will be headed back to get my next tattoo!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. For both tattoos and body piercings, these guys rock.For tattoos: Fin. Fin is incredibly talented and respectable. I shopped around quite a lot before my first tattoo, and chose Fin about a year and a half ago, before he owned his own place. He was so easy to work with and created a beautiful piece for me. To this day it still looks brand new! Most recently, I got a larger wolf tattoo with a mountain scene, and the dot work and detail are pristine. It has healed wonderfully and no issues/reaction to his ink or tools. Aside from his talent and astounding portfolio, he is a down to earth guy that is friendly, respectful, and makes hours under the needle feel like a breeze.For piercings: George! George has a beautiful spread of jewelry, top-shelf quality. Not your typical chop shop at all! He even has the jewels under warranty. I never knew there was so much to know about piercings until I met George. He’s a wealth of knowledge. He takes the time to answer questions, provide feedback, and offer assistance. I have come to him now several times with issues I’ve had with piercings NOT done by him, and he welcomes the business openly and helps resolve the issue. For example, I’ve had this stubborn bump on my nose piercing and his change of jewelry material and knowledge in treating these common occurrences has helped it heal IMMENSELY. He puts your piercing and skin health above his business, and that is truly rare to find in this field. Needless to say, all my piercings from this point forward will be done by George.Check them out in their shop, or on Instagram at @mr_finsters_tattooMuch love guys.
I have been going to Mister Finsters for several months now. The shop is extremely clean and very chill. I have been going to James, I am picky and his artistry blows my mind. You will not be disappointed.
I had a wonderful experience at Mr Finster’s with Chelsea Darling, my first tattoo in over two years! Will definitely be going back to Chelsea in the coming months and years. She was thoughtful and attentive to the needs of myself and my partner, getting matching tattoos while taking account for size and body type, and never made us feel rushed or unwelcome. Would recommend Chelsea to anyone , whether a first timer or long time tattoo getter. 10/10 for Chelsea
I had the pleasure of getting my first tattoo done by Chelsea, and it was an amazing experience. Chelsea is super talented, and she made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a skilled and welcoming tattoo artist!!! Not to mention the atmosphere of the shop was a vibe!!
I love Mister Finster’s! The shop is immaculate and so fun to spend time in. Fin is not only an amazing tattoo artist but a wonderful person to be around. He has done several tattoos on me over the years with most recently a large chest piece of flowers. I constantly get compliments on it. I can’t wait for my next tattoo by him!
I went to see Amy for two piercings today. She was so knowledgeable, professional, and communicative during the process! The studio was also very clean. I had a great experience and I will definitely return!
James is the absolutely the best tattoo artist Ive ever gone to, and Mister Finsters has to be the best shop around! Ive gotten two pieces from James and each time Im beyond amazed. His linework, color, and shading are incredible and hes really one of the nicest guys youll meet. If youre into American Traditional, Neo Traditional, or really anything, he is your guy. Definitely a 10/10, Ill for sure be returning!
If you want a great tattoo, whether its your first or your hundredth, look no further. Mister Finster has incredible artists to choose from.This shop is hands DOWN one of the greatest tattoo experiences I have ever had. Fin is a joy to be around and will make you feel right at home and is such a phenomenal artist ta boot. Chelsea Darling is truly darling and am constantly being complimented on the work she has done on me.This shop is where it’s at and definitely a spot you should drop into and check out.
My husband got a tattoo by the apprentice, Kara and hes obsessed with it. Kara is AMAZING! The studio is awesome and has parking in the back. We will definitely be back for more.
I was in the shop about a month ago to get an industrial. From the time I walked in I felt a sense of calmness and the warmth of the shop. Everyone I encountered was extremely friendly and i immediately felt at ease (although my adrenaline was on overload lol). George made me feel comfortable and he was very thorough. Unfortunately he was not able to do the piercing I wanted that night but I did end up with another nose stud. I just had another appointment tonight to finally get my industrial and I was super nervous but once again George made me feel comfortable and at ease. If you decide to get any piercings I highly recommend this shop and George! He’s amazing!
My husband, brother, and I all got tattoos done by Fin, and we couldn’t be happier! Fin made sure each tattoo was perfect before starting, and ensured we all were comfortable during the whole process. We will definitely come back for our next tattoos in the future!
I cannot thank Chelsea enough for my recent tattoo. The attention to detail in her work is unmatched, turning my vision into a stunning reality. The overall vibe in the shop is fantastic – a welcoming and creative atmosphere that made the entire process enjoyable. I highly recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for a top-notch experience.
A beautifully decorated and clean shop! My artist Kara was amazing. I had no idea for placement and she let me try different sizes and placements all around. She did a wonderful job and was great at communicating every step of the process. Everytime I go to the shop, I am greeted and helped immediately. High quality artists and establishment!
I had an exceptional experience at Mister Finsters Tattoo Studio, where Kara brought my vision to life with precision and artistry. The 444 design symbolizing my love for my wife is exactly what I wanted, and Karas skill and attention to detail made the process enjoyable. The studios welcoming atmosphere added to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend Kara and Mister Finsters for anyone seeking a meaningful and well-executed tattoo.
I found Mister Finster’s shop a few years ago and from the first time I met Fin and had my first consultation I immediately knew that I wanted him to design and tattoo my sleeve. Fins shop is like none I’ve ever been to. From the moment you walk in there is a warm and welcoming environment, from the natural light that fills the shop to all the plants that make it feel so comfortable, this shop you can tell was designed with a lot of attention to detail, cleanliness, care, and thought! Fin is incredibly talented, kind, and made my 20 year old dream of having a full sleeve come true!The other artists, Chelsea and James, are also so welcoming and talented!I have also taken my daughter to get her ears pierced with George and he made the experience so comfortable for us.If you’re looking to get a tattoo or piercing this is the place to go! I’ve been to many shops across the country but once I found Mister Finster’s I knew his shop would be the only one I’d return to for any tattoos/piercings.
Best tattoo shop in the area. Professional clean and the work is second to none. Chelsea is a beast, top artist for sure.
Mister Finster’s is one of the best tattoo shops around! The shop is clean and has such a cool vibe. You are greeted with warmth and quickly accommodated the moment you walk up the stairs.I’ve had the pleasure of being tattooed twice now by James Routzahn, who has done flawless work. The lines, perfect. The color, holy moly, insane. The designs, beautiful. James is friendly and welcoming from the moment you sit down with him, he makes sure you are comfortable and talks you through his processes. If you’re looking for someone who specializes in color, this is your artist!
Chelsea darlings tattoos are truly extraordinary. The level of detail she incorporates into her designs and her unmatched skill set her apart from others in the field. After an extensive search, I have finally found the artist who will complete my sleeve to perfection. If youre skeptical, I encourage you to visit her Instagram page and witness her talent firsthand!
I got a tattoo from james and it’s one of my favorites that i have. his colors are rich and bold, his lines are crisp, and mine has held up really nicely since i had it done! he offered for me to take as many breaks as i needed, was thorough in explaining the process & aftercare, and overall made it a really pleasant experience. i 100% recommend him and his work!!
Got my first tattoo with Rusty who did a fantastic job. The detail he achieved was insane and the experience was great - nice guy and extremely professional. Will absolutely be back for my next one. The shop is very nice and the booking process was also very smooth, and I appreciate how Fin helped match me with the right artist for the job.
We were actually recommended Mr. Finsters by another tattoo shop in Alexandria. You know it’s good when other industry shops are sending people your way! Staff was super helpful, and piercer was patient, gentle, excelled at making everyone comfortable, and was great with explaining aftercare.I don’t know what for, but we’ll be back!
Chelsea is such a joy to work with, and is a great artist. I gave her a set of ideas and she pulled them together beautifully for my half sleeve. I look forward to getting the rest of my sleeve completed in 2024. Cheers to @ohmydarlingtattoos !
Awesome place!! Love the selection of jewelry available, and staff are always so professional & friendly. Studios are meticulously clean, and the funky decor gives it a cool vibe. Highly recommend George for a piercing if you want a great experience!
I went in and had an appointment with Pheobe and had no idea what type of shading I wanted or would look best so I left it up to Pheobe and she did not disappoint. They look amazing and I am so happy with the result. I will be back for annual touch ups for sure. Book an appointment with her today, you won’t be disappointed.
Got a few piercings and a jewelry change done by Amy and it was such a easy and wonderful process. Amy was great and explained us through everything. Jewelry selection is beautiful too!
Kara showcased exceptional skill, bringing the design to life. The attention to detail is remarkable, creating a visually stunning and meaningful piece of art. The studios hygiene standards were top-notch, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience. Overall, a highly Kara for both artistic flair and professionalism!! Go see her!!
I had such a great experience here! The atmosphere is awesome, I felt comfortable from the beginning. It’s easy to tell that the people that work there enjoy it and take their craft seriously.I had a tragus and a conch piercing done by Holly and she was phenomenal. They have great quality jewelry and a really good size selection to choose from. She helped me pick out jewelry and held the jewelry up at the piercing site beforehand so I could see what it’d look like. I’ve had my fair share of piercings but she didn’t rush, she still went over each step she was doing and why which was amazing, because I still get that nervous adrenaline rush before piercings every damn time. She checked in on me with every step down to the piercing placement and why. The nerves and pain were so much easier to handle all due to her, and that’s saying a lot because the conch was easily the most painful piercing I’ve ever gotten. Holly also let me know they do follow up appointments 3-4 weeks later to insert a shorter post, which is refreshing and awesome!I’m not decisive enough for tattoos yet (it was hard enough to choose the jewelry for the piercings! 😂) but when I do, I absolutely will be coming back here for them. Really great place, it’s truly a gem.(Pictures: Holly pierced the tragus in my right ear and the conch in my left ear)
Highly recommend this shop. I took my time researching and looking for a new tattoo shop; I hadnt gotten a tattoo in over 10 years and did not know where to start. I had a great experience, the shop itself was very clean and awesome decor. Chelsea was my tattoo artist and was amazing to work with. She was friendly, made me feel comfortable from start to finish, and my tattoo turned out even better than I imagined.
This shop is clean and professional, they have some great artist. I got some work done by Chelsea, we sat down together and talked over what I was looking for in more detail, then she did her thing she is a special artist. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants some great artwork done.
Chelsea is a wildly talented artist amongst a team of other gifted artists at Mister Finster’s. Her work is clean, and her skill is unmatched. The shop is welcoming, warm and unique!
Loved my experience with Chelsea! My new tattoo is beautiful and I can’t wait for it to be fully healed. Chelsea was amazing and her work is excellent. Excited for my next one
I came to Mister Finster’s after doing quite a bit of research on piercers in NOVA for my septum. The ladies at the front are so unbelievably kind. Working with George was great. I was clearly nervous but he did such a great job explaining every step, it really helped keep my nerves down. Every measurement was carefully calculated and he walked me through all of his processes. He is super friendly and patient. The shop is incredibly clean and the sanitization process was really thorough. The piercing itself was so smooth and it didn’t hurt at all. They even scheduled me for a follow up appointment in a month to check in on how things were healing, which I’ve never had before with other piercings. Two days since the appointment and I have no pain or discomfort whatsoever, and I absolutely love my piercing. I can’t recommend this shop and George enough. I would gladly drive the hour to come here over closer shops any day, its clear that their clients are in extremely good hands.
Obsessed with these people. Fin did my first 2 tattoos 5 years ago and so I followed him to his shop. Since going, I have gotten 4 tattoos done by James. Love the man. The environment is great, George is an amazing piercer. I wanna gatekeep this place because I love them but honestly, everyone should know about Mister Finsters. Love yall.
I got a beautiful floral chest tattoo done by Fin today and it was a wonderful (and calming) experience! Very professional and easy-going guy with amazing art skills and an eye for design. The shop was also decorated really nicely, so you were never bored looking around. 11/10 rating; I cant wait to go back!!
I LOVED my experience here!!I got an industrial and my friend got his nose pierced. George and the rest of the staff were amazing. He was quick, gentle, and his placement is perfect. His trainee was also really knowledgeable and friendly. Ive been thinking of getting a tattoo there and she helped me find all of the information I need to look into it.The facility was spotless, clean, and had a vibe that made me feel right at home. (Im a huge plant person and their plants all look so happy.) Its clear that the people that work in that space take pride in it and what they do.I will recommend this place in a heartbeat and definitely be back for more.My ear is a little bit swollen in the picture, obviously, but I still love it.
I can’t say enough good things about Chelsea. Today I got my second tattoo from her, a portrait of my dog who recently passed away. She’s the only one I trusted with such a meaningful tattoo. It looks just like my girl Luna and I cried when I saw it. My husband and I drive over an hour to come and get our tattoos done by her and will continue to do so no matter where we live!!
My daughter (7) had an earlobe piercing here and we are so pleased. George was so patient with her and really took his time as she was a little nervous. He was also super careful in making sure the placement was right and matched her other piercing really well. Super clean and professional. Plenty of cute, quality earrings to pick from too. I will be recommending this place. Thanks guys!
I just had a tattoo done by Fin and it was such a pleasant experience! he made sure the tattoo was exactly how I wanted it and even redrew the whole thing before we got started. highly recommend, would give 6 stars if I could.
I had the best experience! Very professional and welcoming staff! All sterilization procedures were followed at the highest standard (and I know this because I work in the healthcare field) All the details were explained to me in advance and during the piercing. It was pain free, my piercing looks great! I was very impressed! I highly recommend! They are top notch!
Fin did my very first tattoo, and he made me feel so comfortable and not nervous at all, he is so professional and i HIGHLY recommend going to him! i came back today for another tattoo after the grand opening to his new shop and i am always so impressed with his work. the new shop looks amazing! he makes sure your tattoo is perfect/ flawless and i always put my full trust in him when it comes to my tattoos. i am so satisfied with my art, and will continue to come to Fin for more!George is also an amazing piercer, very sweet and kind, i always feel so welcomed when i come in. check him out as well for piercings!!
Highest recommendation for anyone wanting a tattoo or piercing!! The shop itself is beautiful spacious and clean. Fin did two tattoos for me and I am beyond happy with how they turned out!! Super talented and nice guy. I did a ton of research and drove up from Richmond to see him! Thanks Fin!
Fin is amazing, he made feel super welcome and comfortable. I truly appreciate him and will definitely be coming back!
George is an outstanding, professional body piercer he makes you feel comfortable in his chair and super efficient regarding the actual piercing itself. All his techniques and practices are hygienic and make you feel confident that he knows what he is doing. I have gotten 3 piercings from his and every single one has been super quick and minimal discomfort, especially the nose piercing you can tell he has much experience because it was literally a quick pinch and it was done! Thank you so much looking forward to more piercings~
Fin told me to say he’s the best; better than Chelsea, Kara and James. He’s also good at guitar. He’s really insistent that I leave this review but said if I did it he would pay for my drink :)
I love my new eyebrows! I have gotten so many compliments and they are exactly what I wanted. Phoebe was excellent at helping come up with the type of brow-look that I wanted and walked me through the process. I had no difficulties during the healing process.I went for a subtle and natural look with combination powder/micro-bladed eyebrows. I wanted to keep the shape as close to my natural eyebrows as possible, but fill them in and shape them subtly. After years of over-plucking my eyebrows needed the help!
I got my forearm tattoo done by Chelsea, and I cannot recommend her enough! It was exactly what I wanted, I couldn’t have asked for anything better. She was so sweet and patient with my mom and I, and she is absolutely the best. I will only be letting her tattoo me from now on, she is beyond talented. I have SO many friends booking their next tattoos with her! Highly recommend ❤️
I just finished up my second tattoo with James, and I’ve got another on the books…needless to say, I couldn’t be happier. He’s super easy to work with and a real professional through the whole process, making sure you get exactly what you want.Check him out @jxr.tattoo on Instagram!!!
In February I went and got a nose piercing at the tattoo expo. I’m now healed and the original post was too long and irritating. I went in after work and was greeted by the receptionist. After explaining what was going on, I was introduced to Holly. I went over what I needed and she took a quick look at my nose since I didn’t know the gauge or anything. She advised me of my options afterwards. She replaced the post for me and it took no longer than 2min! I had a few questions after I was done and she graciously answered them. I will be back as it felt very welcoming there and they were all super nice.
I had my ear pierced by George today and scheduling an appointment was really easy and nice! The price was reasonable and the jewelry was ethically sourced and made which was important to me! I thought that the jewelry selection was perfect. I was a bit nervous but it was painless and looks great! I highly recommend George for piercings as he has years of experience and it was worth every penny!
Ugh this place is incredible!! The tattoo artist, Fin, and George the piercer are both so talented and amazing guys. I have worked with them both, and each one is so kind and down to earth; they really make the experience enjoyable. Fin has a light hand, so the pain is manageable and the art heals well. He is also magical with line work! The location is great; parking available, and the studio beautiful. I live in Maryland, but come here because it is just great talent and energy.
I had two earlobe piercings today by George. He was incredible. Extremely helpful, kind, patient, and knowledgeable. I have had different piercings in the past at different places, but George and Mister Finster provided the absolute best and most professional experience. I will definitely be coming back in the future. I cannot recommend them enough.
I have been in a few time for help with irritated piercings. Both Amy and George are so kind, helpful, and informative with assisting with piercings. I will only come here for any hep and new piercings!
Phoebe is awesome. Cosmetic tattooing was not something I was familiar with and Phoebe was great walking me through the process from start to finish. The location and space was very clean and she is very professional. I absolutely love the shape and fullness of my brows. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for this service.
James is the best!! Ive lived in the DMV for under two years and already have 3 tattoos by him. Cant wait to have this baby so I can get many more!
I had my eyebrows done by Ms. Phoebe and they are amazing!! I have a large scar right through one eyebrow and now you would never know. The color she chose matches perfectly. I had my touch up today and she adjusted and corrected for the change in contour between the left and right sides due to the scar. She is an extremely talented artist, professional, caring, and an absolute pleasure to chat with during the session. I am so happy that I am already planning to return to her for lip blush.
I could not have asked for a better experience! Admittedly, I wasnt sure what to expect with having my septum pierced as my only other piercings are in my ear lobes and I knew my nostrils were a bit on the crooked side - I have a deviated septum. My unique anatomy was taken into careful consideration and George did a fantastic job of lining the piercing up to perfection by carefully marking the piercing site. I was expecting some pain but I can honestly say it was painless thanks to his ability to ease my nerves and perform the transition from needle to piercing jewelry in record time. The rest of the staff was not only friendly but incredibly helpful in answering questions and providing the aftercare knowledge necessary to keep my piercing site clean. I wouldnt go anywhere else in the future and have already been recommending Mister Finsters!
I’m so happy that I chose Mr. Finster’s shop for my first tattoo! Fin is an amazing artist and did a clean job on my foot piece. He exceeded my expectations and I’ve been recommending him to everyone I know. If you’re also looking for a great piercer, I recommend George. Super easy to make appointments with and super chill guy. GO HERE!!
I absolutely love the entire staff here! Fin is my guy and he never fails to amaze me with my tattoos. He is the only person I will ever have my ink done with, he is so sweet and really cares. He takes very good care of me every single time, always making sure I am doing alright throughout the process.I also just got my eyebrows shaded and mircobladed with Phoebe. She is so amazing! I literally am so in love with my new brows. She took her time, made sure I was doing well during the process and kept me updated throughout the whole thing. I will never let anyone else touch my eyebrows except Phoebe. Once again, I love the staff here, they are all wonderful!
Took my 9yr old to get her ears pierced. Mister Finsters was clean and well lit. They ran the autoclave while we were there so you knew all the equipment was sterile. Lots of jewelry to choose from! My daughter is so pleased with her new bling! When they were going over aftercare Jess noticed my daughters color changing and they quickly moved into healthcare mode ensuring my daughter didnt faint. George talked us through why she was having this reaction and what they were doing to get her back to normal. They were very sweet, patient, and wouldnt let us leave till she was back to normal. This was a great experience! I was already impressed with the atmosphere but the care given was top notch. I will be back to get some of my holes redone in the near future!
This is a great place, the people and the environment is welcoming. Phoebe did my brows and did an amazing job at keeping them just as natural as I wanted and so good at helping me with aftercare. 100% recommend :) I will be done with brows but looking to get more tattoos through other artists here soon!
Fin does beautiful work, he has done all my tattoos in the photos. I will always go to him for my future tattoos! He’s the best, highly recommend!
Had an amazing experience adding to an already existing tattoo! Fin did an amazing job of making me feel comfortable and creating a beautiful design! Will definitely be going back
Laurin did such an amazing job on my tattoo! She captured what I wanted perfectly and was very patient with helping me figure out where to put it. The tattoo studio was extremely clean and the process was smooth. I am obsessed with my new piece and would recommend this tattoo studio to anyone looking for good quality work!
Ive been going to Fin for years now to get all my tattoo work done, hands down the best in the NOVA area. Super professional. 100% recommend to all my friends
I went to get my tattoo done yesterday by Fin, he was very nice and understanding. He took time to get everything right with how I wanted my tattoo. I was nervous about my tattoo so I brought my friend to be there as support but he was so friendly and great about everything. When tattooing his touch was light and not digging in which I’ve experienced with other tattoo artists 10/10 would recommend and definitely will be getting another tattoo by him in the future.
Got my first real piece done on Thursday and it was an awesome experience. I had been super nervous all day, but when I got to the studio the atmosphere was so chill that it totally calmed me down. Fin was awesome and made me feel right at home the whole time! The piece he made for me was everything I wanted and more. He walked me through the whole thing, answered my questions while he worked, and made me feel really comfortable with the process.I absolutely love my ink and will 1000% be going back to continue to work with him. Great experience and great people, would absolutely recommend checking this place out!
I’ve been tattooed by Fin and just got pierced by George. Fin is great, he’s incredibly talented. George was WONDERFUL! I’m always nervous before a piercing but he was so kind and talked me through every step. It was also the cleanest place I’ve been to. I would give it more stars if I could. I will absolutely be back and would recommend to anyone!
Got a tattoo with James and absolutely loved it. The shop is super clean and does great work. Will for sure be back again!
I had Fin do a full sleeve. They have an extremely talented crew. I can’t say enough about how great of work they did. I got multiple quotes and during the finding phase Fin even gave me referrals of other artists. I went with Fin because of his talent, passion, and love for the work. I wouldn’t want anyone else working on me. Fin is an incredibly talented artist, business owner, and an amazing individual. He is worth the wait. Check out his Instagram handle through the website for his portfolio.
I have been coming here for a handful of times now and i will keep coming the environment is very friendly and welcoming, my artist Chelsea who takes care of me and does amazing work, her work on me is perfect and exactly how I imagine it to come out can’t wait for more artwork from her she is very talented and is great at communicating with you to make sure you are very satisfied with what you get and a great person!
Chelsea is by far my favorite artist I’ve ever gotten tattooed by. She’s so meticulous and patient and makes sure her work is perfect.
Hello,I had the pleasure of working with Fin, let me start by saying- WOW!!!! I have several tattoos and love almost all of them. Fin tattooed me last week, I cannot get over how perfect this tattoo is! Fin is professional, kind, gentle and just an absolute amazing artist! You know when you go in to get a tattoo you want it to be perfect and sometimes they are but Fin will MAKE sure his work is perfect and you will be very happy with his work! The shop is clean and beautiful, the music was awesome, the staff was pleasant, I cant sing their praises enough!! I have found my forever artist! THANK YOU FIN for giving me something that I will treasure for years to come!Sincerely,Kelly Cole
Kara did a tattoo on my fiancé leg. She did an amazing job, and was very professional! Definitely will be going back to see her for my next tattoo!
Absolutely amazing experience! Fin is a master at his craft. We worked together to design two custom peices for me. I gave him the general ideas and he customized them to meet my requirements. He actually exceeded them with his product. He crushed it!!! Hitting the mark and inked two awesome peices. His staff, facility and service are all at the utmost in professionalism. I highly recommend him for your tattoo, the experience is world class!
George is definitely an awesome piercer!!!!! I came in for consultation for a few piercings/re-piercing. George took his time to listen to me and gave me all the info I needed to know. He even took time to see which piercings were open so it wouldnt cost me extra money and I would only pay for insertion. He sanitized every tool he used on me from checking the piercing for opening to piercing my nose. It makes me comfortable that he sanitized his hands changed his gloves in between prepping me and piercing. Needless to say, he changed the gloves again and wiped down the area I was laying on during the process, which also tells me that he cleaned the area properly before I got in there. During the piercing, he walked me through each step he was going through. Such a thorough job!!! And not only that, but they scheduled me for a follow-up/check up on the piercing. Definitely coming back for my cartilage and tragus piercing
Let’s just start with PHOEBE IS AMAZING!! I have been wanting to get my eyebrows for years but have always been to nervous. A friend of my daughter recommended her and I could not be happier. The time I save from not having to do them every morning makes my routine so much faster, not to mention the struggle to get them even.Phoebe took the time to explain everything to me to make sure my nervousness was eased. She took her time to make sure they were perfect and picked the perfect color.I would recommend her to anyone!!! The only regret I have is not finding her sooner!Thank you Phoebe!!Cyndi
I’ve had 2 tattoos (one by Finn a few months ago and one by Laurin today) and an industrial piercing with this shop. Every single step of all experiences was professional, comfortable, and well-executed. They checked in with me to make sure I was comfortable and happy with the work and my experience the whole way, and good conversation too. Pricing is fair for the quality of work, which is high! I highly recommend both artists and the whole shop, but truthfully the credit for this review should go to Laurin! Outstanding work!!!
I went in yesterday with a friend to get a few ear piercings done by George. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and funny! I told him my ideas and he talked me out of getting too many done on both ears at once because it could be painful to sleep on. I really appreciated his honesty because it showed me he prioritized and cared about my experience over making money. The jewelry was good quality (although I wish they had more selection to chose from), and the studio was welcoming and clean (a really cool space tbh and they decorated for Halloween). He made sure I was happy and knew what he was doing during every step, and the piercings themselves werent very painful (2nd lobe piercings and a tragus). I dont have the highest pain tolerance but honestly my pain was at a 2-3/10 right after and a day later I barely feel anything. Definitely recommend.
Got my ears re-pierced, friendly staff, very clean piercing room. They graciously took me in as a walk-in, but appointments are usually required. No issues with my ears this time, a nice clean heal.
Mimi was SO informative, knowledgable, and accommodating. I paid for a right nipple piercing with two opal stones. I love it! The service was clean and thorough, with a wide selection of beautiful jewelry. She explained everything to me and was incredibly patient. I originally came to repierce my navel but she suggested that I not get one due to previous scarring (I had forgotten to mention to her.) The prices were extremely reasonable. Can say I will DEFINITELY be coming back for more (and wish that I had gotten my piercings done here first!!)The aesthetic and overall atmosphere was very pleasing to me. Love this place.
Accept no substitute. I’m looking forward to getting pierced here again. Professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful service. Really neat curiosity inspiring and clean atmosphere as well.
I can’t say enough good things about Fin and the staff at Mister Finsters. I got my first tattoo done there yesterday and had the best possible experience. I was extremely anxious and everyone made me feel right at home the second I walked in. Fin is the man and clearly elite in his craft. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back.
Amy has the touch of 1000 butterfly kisses and every piercing she’s done for me in the last 5 years has healed like a dream. Highly recommend 🩷
Phoebe did an amazing job on my powder brows! She helped me figure out what would be best depending on my lifestyle and picked the perfect color for my brows. I’d recommend her if you’re interested in getting your eyebrows done!
I visited the shop recently to get a small, traditional, black & gray tattoo from James. Ive visited the shop a few months back to get a nose piercing from George as well. The shop is lovely, clean, and everyone is always professional.I enjoyed working with James to get my perfect tattoo and would absolutely be back again.
Without a doubt the best piercing experience i’ve ever had. George explained everything before he did it, from the sterilization, to the marking and his technique, and made the whole experience super comfortable for me and the piercing process itself was a breeze. The shop is beautiful and everything is super professional and clean. Recommended to all of my friends. Go see George!!!
I can’t say enough good things about Fin! He helped me bring to life the idea I had to commemorate my mom with a simple and beautiful tattoo. He’s a true artist, takes his work very seriously, and was a ton of fun to just hang out with while he was working. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Best way to get in touch is through email and totally worth the wait. Design is crisp, shading is perfect, price was right.
Absolutely the best piercing place Ive ever been to and Ive been to multiple places in Richmond, Norfolk and Virginia Beach. I found Mister Finsters randomly when I was staying in Falls Church for a medical rotation. I was a little skeptical at first because the owner and piercer, George, was younger than me. (Im in my early 30s.) I thought, how could he be good at this so young. However, I was extremely impressed by his professionalism, knowledge and how at ease he made me feel through the entire experience. The place was immaculately clean and well put together. The jewellery there is not only beautiful, but unique. I have several septum pieces from there and get complemented on them all the time. I didnt get my septum pierced there, but I wish I did. George changed out of my septum piercing, as it was newly pierced from a place I would not go back to in Norfolk. He walked me through everything, including how to maintain hygiene while changing out my pieces. I have to change out often, as I am a medical professional and need my septum hidden during work.Side note: While I didnt get a tattoo, I was able to see the work in and out as I visited the store multiple times. Gorgeous work, great lines and shading. The clients all walked out excited and happy to have amazing artwork on their bodies.Highly, highly recommend this place! I live 4 hours away, but will definitely be going back to get anything pierced and to get more jewellery. Thank you, George!
I do not recommend getting pierced here. The placement of my rook piercing was incorrect and led to me having to take it out. Right away I noticed that the jewelry kept drifting upward and was pressing awkwardly in to my ear. I thought it might be swelling, but after the swelling went down I could see that the placement was too high and I needed to remove it unfortunately.
My tattoo experience was so great and I will definitely be coming back here for future tattoos! Fin was patient, professional, detail-oriented, and overall a really chill person. The shop is also pretty cool. I highly recommend this place!
Brow down before the queen!I had been following Phoebes work on social media for several months to make sure she was the right one for my special brow needs. Over a decade ago, I had thin brows tattooed on at the same place I got my nails done. Those brows have since faded to an ashy grey-blue that needed to be redrawn every day just to look normal. Needless to say, my expression makers needed some love. Phoebe was able to step in and quite literally saved my face. Her technique is superb; she took the time to measure my facial structure every which way to find what looks best on me. After living with my thin, overplucked late 90s style eyebrows for the bulk of my years, I was apprehensive to thicken them up (change is hard, right?). Phoebe was able to fill-in and cover my old tattooed brows to achieve a more natural look, all without causing drastic change. Im still amazed at her ability to ride such a subtle line and give me the exact brows I needed. Give that gal a crown, Phoebe is the queen of brows.
Came across Phoebe on Insta as I was looking into getting cosmetic tattooing. Cosmetic tattooing was something I was not familiar with and Phoebe did a fantastic job explaining the process. We met for a consultation and a few weeks later I got my brows done. A few more weeks later, I met up with my besties and sister and no one noticed my new look! It just goes to show how good Phoebe is as her trade. Thanks Phoebe!
First and foremost, this is the CLEANEST shop I have ever seen!! I got a cartilage piercing by George and could not have had a better experience. The guy is rock solid - incredibly knowledgeable, professional and very personable. I wish they had a larger selection of jewelry, but that in no way affected me from finding something I loved. I will definitely be back for more piercings and more jewelry!!
I had James tattoo an eagle on me and I am not only absolutely obsessed with the work but I’ve also found a favorite artist that I’ll continue to go to! He puts so much time and effort into all of his pieces and you can truly tell. He’s super professional and easy to talk to! I highly recommend him and the shop as a whole!
Ive known about Fins work for awhile, and couldnt wait to get a tattoo from him. When I walked into his shop I was blown away by the ambiance and the customer service. Fin did an amazing memorial piece for me. I highly recommend Fin as an artist, for his attention to detail and his dedication to providing an unique experience for every patron.
My friends and I go to George for piercings and he’s been great!! Super friendly and informative. He tells you what he’s going to do before it happens so you aren’t left with any surprises— total genuine guy that’s willing to help you out and answer questions over anything. Recommend to anybody! **also cleanest shop I ever encountered. HUGE plus**
The place was very clean and the staff was so welcoming straight from the start, the piercer walked me through every step he was doing and was fantastic. They also got me scheduled for a follow up appointment to check on the piercing, which I have never seen a place do before. Fantastic work from everyone, highly recommend this place
I’ve had the pleasure of getting tattooed by Fin, and I must say he is a highly talented professional artist with great attention to detail. Likewise I’ve gotten pierced by George as well as had him change several of my previous piercings. George is just as precise and professional. I would highly recommend these two to anyone in need of a tattoo or piercing.
The second you walk in you feel like you’re home. It is, truly, the warmest tattoo shop I’ve ever had the pleasure of setting foot in. I got my first tattoo from Fin a couple years ago and have only been to him since. Not only is he personable, he is detailed oriented and puts so much care and effort into everything he does. 10/10, will always recommend
The whole team here is just amazing. I had a piece done tonight by Rusty, a guest artist from California. He handled the whole piece from start to finish, including the original design. It’s truly a work of art and he went above and beyond even my highest expectations.Everyone made me feel super welcome and looked after me during the whole session, which took about eight hours. Trust ‘em with your art; you won’t be disappointed.
Went to Mrister Finsters to get my eyebrows done. I ended up with Poweder Brows done by Phoebe. That are absolutely everything I could’ve wanted. She made me feel comfortable and confident and was extremely professional. I would absolutely recommend coming to her if your looking to get your eyebrow done.
I’m from PA so I wasn’t really expecting to go get anything done, but the service was really quick to get me an appointment and George did an awesome job on my septum piercing! He made sure everything was super sanitary especially considering COVID guidelines. I’ll probably come back sometime when I’m in the area because it was a really good experience.They don’t take walk-ins so you have to call in advance, FYI!
Kara is the absolute best, she was so gentle when it came to my tattoo. She is the absolute bees knees. Would highly recommend
Phenomenal experience. Had my eyebrow pierced and couldn’t be happier! Professional staff, professional attitude, clean shop. As a healthcare provider I’m seriously picky about who is going to poke holes in my body and George was great. This will be where I go for any additional work without question!
Highly recommend Mister Finsters. Ive come to Fin for years and trust him and his crew for my entire family. The shop is so clean, his art work is incredible, there simply is no other choice as far as Im concerned. Thanks Fin for all you do for everything.
Fin did an amazing job on both my girlfriends and my tattoo. He gave great advice on what he thought would look good and made sure that both of us left with the tattoo we wanted. For reference, she got a line based tattoo and I got an illustrative shaded rose. Both turned out great.
Ive had three piercings done by George - tragus, daith, and flat. He is very knowledgeable and took the time to make sure I was happy with the placement. He was clear with what to expect both during the piercings and after. All three of my piercings have healed quickly and without much discomfort. Looking forward to my next visit!
Mister Finster’s is a very professional and welcoming tattoo studio. On top of the beautiful location, Fin is one of the most professional & skilled artists I’ve ever been to. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences every time. Highly recommend!
Phoebe is phenomenal! I went in for microblading and was very apprehensive, but Phoebe quickly put me at ease. She explained the best type to get (microblading vs powder brow) for my brow line and face shape and showed me several pictures of how it would look. She explained the process from beginning to end, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results! Will definitely continue seeing Phoebe for all my brow fillings!
Laurin did my tattoo. She literally did exactly what I wanted with her own little twist. I am so in love. Highly recommend. Fin (the owner) is also very talented and a fun guy to be around. Overall just amazing shop. I will be coming back in the future!
Wonderful day at Mister Finsters! First - a custom piece by Fin for my forearm. Fin is so great to work with - he listens to your ideas then makes them better! Next- an earlobe piercing with George. George makes you feel at ease, explains everything clearly, and has a great touch. Cant say enough great things about the shop and these two young men. Thanks!!
Had nose piercing done and my daughters ear lobes pierced. Super friendly and professional, knowledgeable staff. Very clean. Highly recommend for piercing. Havent had a tattoo done there, but the work I saw while there was beautifully done.
Super clean layout, very open and inviting atmosphere, Nothing to hide here! These guys have customer service and a professional demeanor down to a Science! I had both of my daughters pierced here AND my wife and I got matching tattoos that came out better than we could ever imagine. Thank you Mr. Finsters!! We will be back!
My gf just got pierced by Mimi! She was so professional and informative about everything. My gf originally came in for an industrial but Mimi advised not to because she cared about the issues that may occur future. I really appreciated the fact that she took her time with prep work and made sure my gf was comfortable. Mimi made sure that my gf was also happy with the placement and made a lot of precautions leading up to the piercing. My gf ended up getting a helix instead and she loves it. Mimi was a delight to be around!Overall a 10/10 experience!Thank you Mimi, my gf says she’ll be back for more piercings in the the future!
I came to get my septum pierced and I already love this place so much . It’s very clean and George is an amazing piercer ! He really took the time to mark where the jewelry would sit and explained the entire process . 10/10 do recommend !
I brought my 17-year-old daughter in for a nose piercing and worked with George. He was very efficient and professional and made sure that every step was done properly. The space is open and attractive and the location is convenient. Cant say enough good things about our experience.
I visited Mr. Finster’s just to check it out on my lunch break. I ended up getting a piercing while there. The place is so clean and inviting. The piercer, George, is awesome. He explains the whole process while doing it, and makes you feel very comfortable. I will definitely be going back in the future!
I got my monroe (re)pierced by George. It was one of THE BEST experiences I’ve ever had in a shop. He is extremely knowledgeable about his craft, but lacks the aggressive ego of many other piercers.
I had a great experience! The place was really nice and clean and had sort of a lobby area and a couple rooms for piercing. The room where the piercings happened were super clean and looked like a doctors office with all the sanitary supplies. I believe George did my nose piercing. He was very professional and seemed to know everything there was to know about piercings.
Kara did a Marvin the Martian on my thigh, and she did amazing. Made it very easy and comfortable. Definitely recommend!!
I got my first tattoo here and Fin was awesome! He was patient, helpful, and professional. A place I went to before was rude and tried to overcharge me but the pricing at Finsters was more than reasonable. I will definitely go back here for my next one!
If I could give more stars I would ! Mimi is insanely knowledgeable and when I discussed why my navel piercings (done elsewhere) have never healed and left horrible scaring from many attempts. I found out I didn’t have the proper anatomy which caused them to migrate out. I wish I would have known about this studio , and Mimi . It might have even been prevented with a different style of jewelry! I truly appreciate the time Mimi took to discuss and explain everything.I wish I would have known the difference between quality piercers in the past , would have saved me a lot of pain and money and scarring.Thank you Mimi!
Phoebe made my eyebrow dreams come true! Ladies If you are ready to throw away your eyebrow pencil and gain time back in the morning go to Phoebe for amazing brows!! She was so sweet and great to work with. So happy with the results!
Had a nose piercing done at another place and wanted to change the screw to a straight post instead. The person who helped me was George I believe. He was great, literally answered every question I had and assured me that I was going to be okay healing wise. Everything was sanitized and clean. Great experience, will definitely be coming back.
I absolutely love this place! Everyone here is super friendly and professional! I got a few body and helix piercings from George and lobe piercings from Jess, and theyre both wonderful!! Im already planning on getting more stuff done here!
Beautiful new studio, great location, super friendly and knowledgable staff members and fantastic work. It was very nice to walk in and see a professional and most of all clean studio! The two shop owners are the head Piercer George and head Tattooist Johnny (Fin) both are so nice that youll feel at ease asking any questions you may have. I would recommend this place to anyone 5 freakin stars
Eyebrows…wanted to get mine done for soooo long and so very happy that I chose Phoebe to do them!! She did an amazing job keeping with the natural look I wanted! She made the entire process a pleasurable experience from start to finish. I only wish I’d done it sooner❣️❣️❣️
Got my helix and conch pierced today! The piercer was very knowledgeable and thorough! Definitely one of the better piercing places Ive been to. Everything was very clean and the atmosphere was inviting.
UPDATE US WRITTEN BELOW, THE OWNER WAS SUPER HELPFUL WITH RESOLVING MY ISSUE!Only reason I’m giving 1 star is because of the lack of communication the shop has. I looked at the site and I loved the work from all artists. In particular I wanted to have Laurin do my tattoo. I wanted to get inked for my birthday which is June 5th and attempted to schedule an appointment ahead of time so I could have it by my birthday. I’ve sent 4 emails and even sent her two direct messages on Instagram and no reply! She responds back to one email and says “unfortunately I cannot see any of your email, please resend” I did that and again NOTHING! I’ve even called the shop and left a message for her to call me back twice and guess what?? NOTHING! I liked the work and the reviews, however I give up. If a shop can’t keep good communication with a potential client then I should probably spend my money elsewhere. Hopefully this review will make you guys more aware, as a potential client I felt disregarded, let down and as if my business didn’t matter.UPDATE: I spoke with Fin who assured me that this was not the norm and had no issue scheduling me in for a consultation. Laurin called and apologized for her lack of communication with me and Fin was also very apologetic. I am happy to have a consultation with this shop, as I mentioned above, their reviews are amazing and seem like a shop I can trust. Thanks for rectifying the issue Finn, it means a lot!
My artist was Chelsea and she was wonderful! The work she did was everything I wanted and more. Truly amazing talent!
Got tattooed but Kara this past weekend and she did such an amazing job! Would highly recommend her she’s the best!
James is the man! Hes still in his apprenticeship yet hes already better than most of the tattoers in the area. Already been back to see him 4 times. Not hard to see why the whole shop is so in demand. Everyone there does quality work!
Talk about a great place. I booked and appointment with Georgie (Super Master Piercer) Georgie was wonderful! He has extensive knowledge and experience. He provides excellent bedside manner and really cares about his clients. He performed 2 piercings on me and made sure I was aware of aftercare and healing. He wanted me to come back in after a month for a checkup, I have never had a piercer want me to come back in to look at the healing process. For my one month checkup he told me it was healing great! (I think its healing so well because Georgie made sure I knew what to do, when to do it, and how to do it) Mister Finsters has an HUGE selection of jewelery and I purchased a Black Opal flat stud for one of my piercings. Georgie sanitized the jewlery and help insert as well. I cannot even think about going to another piercer, Georgie is top notch and Mister Finsters is a professional and clean shop. Thankyou for the wonderful experience, I am excited to see you all again soon. ❤️
Had a great experience with Mimi who did our piercings. She was thorough, helpful and enjoyable to chat with. Beautiful shop and had same day availability for piercings.
Chelsea does phenomenal work, any tattoo done from her has top notch detail!! Highly recommend
Finn is a very professional and patient. I was walked through the whole process and felt very comfortable. I was very impressed with the vibe and over all feel of the shop, not like your typical dark and gloomy tattoo shop.
Without doubt the best place for ink ever! Corey and Fin are just two top guys. Super friendly and always willing to help. Corey has done my art so far and he has killed it with everything. Guys, your awesome and I wouldn’t go anywhere else, and your studio is super clean which is a huge bonus. Cheers mates! Nick
If you want great work Chelsea is your girl.. she is the best artist I know and I need to get more work from her!
This is by far the best studio in the DMV! A little jewel in the midst of Falls Church. The cleanest studio Ive ever been in, cool tunes but mostly the artwork was nothing less than brilliant. Fin took my idea and put it to ink. Results speak for themselves. Do yourself a favor and book with this artist you wont regret it. #XOXONZM
Great service and cute shop! Me and my sister got our first non-clair’s piercings, it was so easy and comfortable, very well done, 10/10 experience
Big thumbs up to George for piercing my jestrum! He was welcoming and was very careful with the placement. Can’t wait to come again and recommend to peers :-D
Kara is the best she placed my tattoo so Perfect and took her time. Definitely coming back to see her
My mom brought me here and i got my nose pierced by George. It was very pretty inside and their nose jewelry is very cute. My mom is planning on coming back to pierce her ears. We had a great experience.
The team is great and made our daughters ear piercing experience fantastic. Would highly recommend for childrens ear piercing!
Freckles my Phoebe which I adore! Second time at Mister Finsters; great location, awesome atmosphere, and vintage/thrifted decor pulls my death strings.Not to mention a visit to Liberty bar after, ask for Nick ;)
Best, most professional piercing experience. Highly recommend
I had a great experience with Fin for my appointment. He was professional, thorough, and his work was amazing.
Cant recommend enough...went to Georgie K for a piercing (third earlop and ear cartilage)for my daughter. They followed all the rules and spent an hour with us walking thru the whole process...Super clean, super professional...great job.
George is the BOMB when it comes to piercing!!! I got a daith piercing and I barely felt it at all (just some slight pressure). If you are interested in getting a piercing, go to George!!! SERIOUSLY!!! Plus, this is the cleanest place I have EVER seen!!!
I just walked in and Holly got me in right away for a piercing! She was so sweet and accommodating, 10/10 would recommend to get pierced by her!
Chelsea - glad I finally found an exceptional artist I can connect with when it comes to getting something I will have forever. Would strongly recommend.
Top notch tattoo/piercing shop with friendly, down to earth artists. Ive gone to Finn and Corey for tattoos- both are super talented and easy going. Highly recommend!
I dont usually do the review thing but I couldnt hold myself this time, I did my nose pricing yesterday, and the customer service was amazing, and they do have a lot of options. Im in love with my nose pricing ring.
I’ve gotten two pieces done by Fin now and they are both amazing. I came in both times with a very basic idea and fin was able to use his outstanding artistic ability to give me exactly what I wanted. I Can’t speak highly enough of this place.
One of my first tattoos and I can do nothing but speak highly of all the staff, James did a bang up job of helping me with what I want, and executing it. No doubt will be back for more!!
Fin was super accommodating and made sure the tattoo was just right before starting. Absolutely love the finished product. Best tattoo artist in the world.
Absolutely I love with my Letter A. The shop is very welcoming and clean. I love the whole layout. Overall, the best tattoo shop I’ve been at so far.
If u wanna get a belly button piercing beware! they might tell you your belly button is weird shaped with odd “anatomy” and won’t do the piercing. So i went to a different store in springfield and they did it no problem and said that saying unable to pierce naval because of different shape is unusual and lazy.
Went on Sunday and got a conch piercing at a whim, the attention to detail and cleanliness provided by George was top notch and so very appreciated the Customer service was awesome and it’s an overall really cozy spot! If I could give more stars I would.
Oh My Darling tattoos is the best if you want great work go to my girl Chelsea
Fin is awesome! I’d highly recommend him for your next tattoo.

I got my ear pierced by George. He was very professional, and it was over in a second. I will definitely go back to get another piercing by him!
Johnny and crew are amazing highly recommend, I waited 20 years to finish my sleeves and now Im happy I did because Johnny did an amazing and awesome job super happy with it
Lovely experience, thank you Amy for another amazing piercing I 100% would recommend!
I got my brows done by Phoebe, and I could not be more happy with them. They look so natural, and the process was way better than I thought it would be!
Amy was awesome. Super patient with me, quick service. Highly recommend.
Total perfection! George and Kara are fantastic! The shop is spotless! Great ambiance!
Ive gotten my helix and rook pierced here (on different occasions) and Ive had a great experience both times.
Great place to get a professional tattoo, clean and tidy. Positive and happy staff and artists. Make sure you use the parking round the back!
