Burning Hearts Tattoo Co.

Wes took great care today to give me my first and awesome tattoo of my badge while accentuating initials of my family members in the space between the cross. His attention to detail is impeccable and he did not rush through this job at all. Staff members are fantastic and very personable. I highly recommend Burning Hearts as your first stop for your first tattoo! Thanks again!

Made back to back appointments for myself and my daughter. I needed two locations re-pierced and one new location and she wanted two helix piercings. The normal piercer had gone home sick and so we were lucky to have Nicholas assist us.Nicholas first sat down with us and went out our wants and desires. After inspecting my piercings, we decided not to repierce my daith because it has sustained damage after being hooked on a dog’s nail a while back and was unlikely to take. I opted instead for two new locations; a room and a “faux” rook.Nicholas walked us through every step of the process, from sterilization procedures to the most thorough aftercare speech I’ve ever heard!I’ve been tattooed or pierced about a dozen or more times in my life and no one has ever been so thorough. The hot water spray technique is KEY!! I usually fight with the healing of my piercings but thanks to Nicholas’ amazing tips, am healing normallyfor the first time ever.The stupid has a cool vibe too. Amazing jewelry and was just an all around positive experience.

I brought my daughter in today for a second earlobe piercing and for a consult for me on daith piercings—Corey was phenomenal from beginning to end, super sweet and patient, and took their time when we were choosing jewelry. Any questions we had were patiently answered and we never felt rushed. Aftercare was thoroughly explained and my daughter felt comfortable in getting her piercing. She loves her new piercing, and we will absolutely be back! Thank you so much, Corey!!

I went with my partner to get their nose pierced for their birthday and we had an incredible experience with Corey. I’ve been pierced and tattooed a ton of times and was blown away by how meticulous and thorough they were. My partner had an amazing experience and was so reassured and comfortable the entire time, which is exactly what they were looking for. I definitely want to come back for myself!

Corey is the best. They were super professional, explained all the processes to me about sterilization, after care, and the piercing process. Corey really made me feel super comfortable, was super calm, didn’t rush me at all, and offered me all the encouragement when I needed it! I’ve gotten multiple piercings from Corey and they’ve all healed beautifully!!!

THE BEST HANDS DOWN. Last year I had my nose pierced in a different establishment and it was a disaster - redness, irritation, bump, and stud kept coming out. Had it repierced with Corey and it was flawless. There is zero irritation or swelling, and the stud is flat backed so even if I catch it on my glasses or scratch it by mistake it does not budge! The aftercare is simple, easy to follow and effective. Also appreciate the follow up and downsize opportunity! Corey is sweet, gentle and professional but what comes through most is how clear it is that she knows what she is doing - if she was your brain surgeon you would be okay with it. Highly recommend!

Went to get two piercings re-pierced and a new location with my daughter and left with one re-piece and two new locations for me and two new piercings for her.The usual piecer had gone home ill and so Nicholas helped us. I’ve been tattooed and pierced a good dozen times before and never before has anyone been so friendly, professional and thorough at the same time.Nicholas went over every aspect of sanitation, what he was doing during the process and the most thorough after-care I’ve ever heard.In the past, I’ve had trouble with ear cartilage piercings getting angry. My original helix (not done here) developed a keloid and had to be swapped out twice. It also aggravated my daith and lobe piercings. In short, it was a mess.This time, thanks to Nicholas’ very thorough instructions and additional cleaning techniques (no one ever suggested a hot water rinse before!), after three days, my piercings are healing perfectly normally, as are my daughters.This is my new shop. It should be yours too!

10/10 would recommend Carlos for your next piercing! He is a traveling piercer that I just so happened to get lucky enough to be scheduled with. He did 5 piercings for me - third hole in both ear lobes, forward helix, flat and conch. He couldn’t have been more patient from start to finish and kept the vibe up beat and fun. He talks you through every step of the process, making sure you understand everything, you’re comfortable with & understand each step, and his little praises with each piercing go a long way. You can truly tell how passionate he is about what he does and he is definitely in the right field! I would hands down recommend him for your next piercing if you can catch him next time he is in town!

I got my septum pierced here today, staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. They are so approachable and made the experience super fun and easy. Entire process took about 20 minutes and i love the results. Definitely recommend!

Corey did a wonderful job with my nose piercing and explaining procedure and cost. Theyre aftercare is equally awesome with additional appointments and written care updates. I needed this due to inflammation and my nose is healing even better. I highly recommend booking an appointment!

Amazing! Got my rook done by Nicholas today and it went so smoothly. He was so kind and made the process quick and easy. Will be coming back soon!

Wes is awesome ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ everything is very clean and sanitary. He makes sure everything is perfect and talks you through each step. My friend and I both got cursive small writing and they came out exactly how we wanted them. We will be booking more!!

I had my septum pierced in December of 2022. Corey made the experience so easy, calm, and comfortable. Not only are they extremely informative and knowledgeable, but also approachable and kind. Everyone in the shop is this way for that matter. I was so pleased with my first experience here, that when my Mom expressed interest in getting her earlobes pierced again, we made an appointment at Burning Hearts to see Corey. And again to no surprise, the experience was lovely. Corey made sure to help us work within our budget and was super helpful with jewelry choice. My Mom left the shop extremely happy with her new piercings and the overall experience. Thanks Burning Hearts, you guys rule!

Found this place on a whim and could not have been more lucky. I got my nose pierced here yesterday and I’m still thinking about how great the whole process was. The thing that stands out above all is the seriousness in which they take their cleanliness. I’ve been to several tattoo shops in the state and this place blows them all out of the water. I work in health care and am so impressed by Carlos’ knowledge of the sterilization process and the clinical yet welcoming feel of the parlor as a whole. Carlos was amazing from start to finish; he made me feel calm and his expertise shone through his work. I didn’t feel like a client he was just trying to get in and out- he took his time explaining every step including aftercare, answering all my questions, and assuring me anyone at the shop could help me should I have any concerns in the weeks to come. I’m so happy with my new piercing and will absolutely be back for more piercings and tattoos in the future! Thank you!

Got a nose piercing from Carlos a couple days ago and had a great experience! Place is extremely clean and really welcoming. Overall awesome experience. Carlos was super nice and made my roommate and I feel really comfortable. Looking forward to coming back in the near future. Seriously great place!

Nice clean shop, artists are very friendly. Dani is a phenomenal tattoo artist. They literally read my mind when I discussed what I wanted with them, and came up with a design that couldnt be more perfect. I gave them a basic rough idea and they turned it into perfection. I put alot of trust in them, especially with it being my throat and sides of my neck, and Dani did not disappoint. Thank you so much Dani, I feel a little more like myself with my new tattoo. You can find Dani on Instagram @vileblvck.ttt to see their portfolio

My peircer, Corey, was so extreamly kind. They were very thorough with aftercare and sanitization. I squirmed a bunch and felt bad but they were super nice about it.

I’ve been to so many tattoo and piercing shops I cannot express how good of a time I had honestly everyone that was there was great!!! Super nice and helpful! Not to mention one of the only shops I’ve found that make sure to put only implant grade for piercings and explain everything in a way that made everything feel safe and comfortable from beginning to end!! They genuinely care about what service they’re preforming on you instead of shoving whatever cheap jewelry in and getting a quick buck. 100% am absolutely making this my regular place from now on. Super happy it was recommended to me and I’ll forever recommend others to it!!!

Took my daughters to get piercings with Corey. Very clean space and gave my girls every thing they needed to take care of their piercings in both product and knowledge. Also a nice selection of jewelry.

I had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Corey! In all my years of receiving piercings at different locations, this was by far the most communicative, transparent, and friendly environment I’ve been in. Corey walked me through all the steps, from beginning to end. The shop was incredibly clean and methodical, and it was clear that they prioritized a safe and healthy piercing process. I will definitely return for any future piercings!

Corey is an amazing piercer! They were informative, friendly, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. Highly recommend them! The entire shop was amazing and truly can’t wait to get more piercings done!

Will be returning! Nicholas is a very talented artist and treated me with care and compassion while at my visit to the shop. I felt confident in his abilities and also felt very comfortable. His work is beautiful! Looking forward to working with him in the future. Thanks for having me!

I managed to get a same-day appointment for piercing with Corey. They were super friendly and walked me through the jewelry options (absolute huge BVLA selection!). I felt zero rush while making a choice. Corey was amazing during the placement and piercing process and I felt like I was in excellent hands.Lots of attention was given to both the sterilization and aftercare - the visit even included a full size NeilMeds wash. I couldnt have asked for a better experience and Ill definitely be back next time Im in town!

Nicholas did my tattoo and the service he provided was amazing! I always recommend this shop as it’s one of the best in CT in my opinion. It’s clean and they do everything to make you feel comfortable coming in. Thanks again for the amazing job on my tattoo! Looking forward to my next visit!

My friend and I decided to come here to get Tragus piercings. Corey was our piercer and we are so glad we came here. Very knowledgeable and comfortable to chat with. We plan to come back again soon! Thank you!

Corey did my second nose piercing and was absolutely amazing and friendly ❤️ made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process and made sure everything was sterilized before continuing. walked me through everything before doing so and was super sweet helping me pick out jewelry for my new piercing and my old one. 🫶🏾 super painless and easy. definitely will be coming back!

Ive been pierced by corey four times and by nicholas once (who i think is focusing more on tattooing now) and i cannot recommend this place enough. corey is always so kind and caring and ensures that their customers have an easy and comfortable experience. corey always gets the placement spot on first try for me and all my piercings by them have all turned out beautifully. i have no plans to go to another piercer and i’ll definitely be coming back for more!! 10/10 experience every time!! thank you corey!!

Mickey was super friendly and nice throughout the entire process. welcomed me as soon as i walked through the door and was super chill helping me out with placement. answered any questions that i had with no judgment. He did such a beautiful job and made me feel super comfortable for my first tattoo. gave me the option to take breaks if i need to. Met Nicholas & Corey as well and they were super sweet. 100% will be coming back! so happy with how my tattoo came out 💖💖

My experience at Burning Hearts was so wonderful. Corey is so professional. They really take the time to walk you through the whole process and are so helpful with any questions you may have. I came in for just one piercing but ended up having them swap all the jewelry in my ears after seeing the beautiful pieces they have available. Thank you so so much for making me feel so pretty ❤️

My daughter had her earlobes pierced by Corey Torok, and I couldnt be happier with the experience. Corey went above and beyond, prioritizing her comfort and preferences over anything else. He was not only highly informative but also made the entire process enjoyable for my daughter, keeping her at ease and engaged in conversation throughout. Coreys care and professionalism shone through, making this a memorable and positive experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Corey Torok for an exceptional ear-piercing experience. Thank you, Corey!

Corey is the best. Very professional and thorough. They made sure everything was done right, had a strong attention to detail, and they were really cool and nice the entire time.I got my bridge and industrial done by them, and they came out amazing. It was the most professional and chill experience Ive had with piercings ever. I highly recommend them, and I will be coming back for more piercings

Corey had done my tongue and eyebrow piercing. They made my experience so comfortable and sat with me until I was ready to leave the shop. The shop is clean and everyone is very friendly and professional. They walked me through the process and went on my time making me feel more at ease. I was nervous to get my tongue pierced but Corey talked me through it and made the experience amazing, not to mention both piercings came out perfect.

Corey is amazing! I came in for a piercing consultation last week and they were incredibly patient and creative, taking me through all my options and providing insight into pain level, healing and aftercare, and all the beautiful jewelry available. Based on our initial conversation, they worked on a curated design for each of my ears with some recommendations for jewelry and placement, so I could see how it all comes together. I started with a tragus and flat piercing earlier this week and Corey and Nicholas are both so lovely to work with! Corey did the piercings under Nicholass observation, and with just a little pressure on my ear, it was over before I knew it. I felt really safe and comfortable here and I cant wait to keep working with Corey. Highly highly recommend!

I had an amazing experience coming here. The staff was super friendly and respectful and did everything they could to make me comfortable. Everything was very clean and they showed me all the sterile materials they were using. Their jewelry is very nice and elegant and they have a range of price options to fit your budget. I really liked the overall vibe and atmosphere. The staff here has a real passion for their craft and it shows in their work.

I just had the most awesome experience at Burning Hearts tattoo. I spent a year debating on if i should get a 2nd tattoo. I was in limbo because i felt like the artist would not be able to capture my vision and my feelings towards why getting this tattoo at this point in my life is so important.Burning hearts was my best decision i met this amazing artist Mickey who took the time to capture what i wanted; oh man! What a cool guy! He walked me through the process until i got every aspect of my vision represented in my tattoo.He was so thoughtful and cared about making sure the tattoo represented my sentiments.For the record i got beyond what I expected I got a tattoo experience. He gave me a very important piece of my life with his artistic abilities one I will never ever forget. He made this tattoo experience so much more meaningful. He for sure is a hidden gem. This place is clean they are professional and respectful. This place is beyond 5 stars and Mickey is absolutely phenomenal. Thank you so much Mickey! Live strong and strength always to you.

The service here is far above any shop Ive been to! Nicholas & Corey made my daughter & I feel like weve been coming for years! The process to book online was simple & everything was straightforward. (I do wish the jewelry was viewable online, but no matter) we were not pressured to spend (besides my daughter pressuring me to buy lol) everything was super clean & their process to show you the jewelry was sanitary was awesome! We were offered to have Corey do the piercing, which we both received lip piercing (Monroe & Madonna). Corey was just awesome! Cant say enough about their professionalism & kindness! Thank you for making our mother daughter experience beautiful!!! See you soon for check up & change out. 😊

I have had such great experience’s here ! The tattoo artist Yeshua does such an amazing job every time I have went to him and he is extremely talented . I will be coming back for lots more in the future !

I had the most marvelous experience at Burning Hearts Tattoo. This is, hands down, the cleanest tattoo shop I’ve ever been to. I had the pleasure of meeting Corey, who was super sweet and friendly, and Nick was my tattoo artist and did a fantastic job! Going in with the concept, Nick drew up two different sizes for me to pick from so that I could really get an idea of how it would look (unsure of the placement at first). Happy with my decision, the tattooing itself was done smoothly, patiently, and professionally, all during great conversations. 10/10 would recommend, tell ya friends!

I’ve had multiple piercings done here. It is a very good business. They make sure you know everything they’re doing, including the sterilization process; this is a very clean place, not sketchy at all. The piercers are so nice and make sure you feel comfortable. Everyone is so friendly there.

I got my nose pierced by Corey and it was a great experience. They’re very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable. The piercing itself was painless and looks great. I’ll definitely be back ☺️

I got my Daith pierced by Corey and they were amazing in every way. Super thorough with explanations, comforting, and they really enjoy piercing, which I love. Everyone we spoke to at Burning Hearts was extremely chill and welcoming. I would 10000% recommend them and this place makes me wish I lived in CT.Also, you will leave with lots of stickers — who doesn’t love stickers?!

Got my first ever tattoo with Mickey, and I couldnt have asked for a better experience. Hes as professional and talented as he is personable and caring. He did a killer job and kept me as comfortable as he could throughout the process.The friendliness of the staff and their practice of sanitizing their tools in front of you is an extra measure of safety and reassurance that I made the right choice to come here. Ill definitely be coming back!

Years ago I had my first few tattoos done by Wes elsewhere and then I moved out of state. I want to start by saying I’m sure he is just as wonderful as he was then, especially because he owns this place now. I decided to get my first piercing in 7 or so years and chose this shop because I trusted that Wes would have only the best there. I was BLOWN AWAY by how amazing my experience was. I arrived early and was greeted upon arrival letting me know I would be seen shortly. Nicholas came out and started chatting with me almost immediately and answered the first few questions I had, as I was super nervous. It turned out they had a guest piercer working as well, and while I was initially nervous because I had expected Nicholas, they both chatted with me and explained everything and answered all my questions. I was ridiculously impressed with how they treated me as I was the only thing that mattered — having patience, giving me advice based on personal experiences, letting take my time, reassuring me, etc. The professionalism and genuine caring in this place meant more than anything to me. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone!! I also want to say that years on YEARS ago I had asked to get pierced elsewhere and Nicholas was the piercer there and he had turned me down bc he knew it would reject. He really knows his stuff and won’t let you down!

I’ve been wanting a nose piercing for as long as I could remember, and I finally decided to take the plunge and book an appointment! The booking process on their website is so easy, and explains what you are paying for, etc. I met Corey on Monday, and I was incredibly nervous. Corey put me completely at ease, explained the entire process from start to finish, and made sure everything was safe, sterile, and placed properly. I barely felt a pinch, and it was over! I left with a sweet piercing and a bunch of cool stickers, one of which included care instructions (super neat!) I highly recommend visiting Corey here at Bleeding Hearts Tattoo Company for all of your piercing needs!

Best piercing experience I’ve had! Corey is the bees knees! They are so kinda and knowledgeable, and their attention to detail is impeccable. They do a great job of making you feel comfortable and explaining every step of the way. I will be back for all future piercings!

Scheduled my appointment a week ago for my septum, and was super nervous about getting one because of what ive seen online prior. Went in today to get it, and my piercer (Corey) was super thorough and really nice about the whole process. Corey explained everything and told me what I needed to do in my part to make sure it heals properly. The whole experience was awesome, and I would definitely go back again if I wanted to get another piercing or a tattoo.

I had my septum pierced by Nicholas at Burning Hearts. He was extremely professional, gentle, and clearly committed to his craft. He went out of his way (including seeing me on his day off!) to ensure that I was satisfied with my piercing. I love it and could not have asked for more. If and when I decide to get another body piercing, I will without hesitation get pierced by Nicholas again.Also, the studio itself had a friendly atmosphere and was incredibly clean. The sterilization process was explained to me in detail and there were many safety “checks” throughout the piercing experience. Nicholas always explained what he was doing before he did it so I felt completely comfortable.10/10 I will recommend Nicholas to everyone!

@cariannxxx did my tattoo today and did an incredible job. The building is very clean and bright. Was pretty quiet and very welcoming. Easy to schedule and good pricing

Yeshua was great to hang out with and did an amazing job on the linework and shading

I have so many great experience’s here . The tattoo artist Yashua does amazing work . He is super talented and I will continue going for more work in the future !

I had an amazing experience! They were super flexible with time and both very professional and made me feel safe. Extremely thorough with sanitation, and super cute jewelry. I will definitely return for any other piercings I may get.

I had two piercings from this place, my first cartilage and my conch. They are firstly ridiculously overpriced, which I did not know until I went to another piercing parlor. Secondly the bars they put in your ear after it’s partly healed are way too small. My conch piercing was so messed up I had to get it pried out with pliers after the skin started growing around it. My cartilage piercing became so bent I had to let it close up.Would not recommend there are so many other places that are much cheaper!

It was my second time having the pleasure of getting pierced by Corey :’) They thoroughly explained the entire process to me as they were piercing me & were completely transparent throughout the whole experience. I highly recommend getting pierced by Corey if you’re in the area. Such a pleasure as always :’)

Got my nose pierced by Nicholas in June 2021, then I had him check it and change out the gauge 6 weeks later. He was so knowledgeable and informative and the shop follows super strict sanitation and cleaning procedures. I really felt safe and comfortable. I also left with the instructions on how to properly care for my piercing to keep it healthy and let it heal fully. (When I had my nose pierced at 20 years old at the Milford mall it was infected and removed within less than a year - care instructions were basically nonexistent.) I just went back to Nick to have him change me to a hoop and was again super pleased with the whole experience. 10/10 would recommend every time!

I got a conch and tragus piercing from Corey. They did an amazing job. They made me feel calm, and comfortable. Not to mention, they did such a thorough job throughout the whole piercing process. Will definitely be using them for all future piercings! :)

Had a great experience with Corey for a jewelry consult and change-out! They were very friendly and considerate, and I felt comfortable and definitely like I was in good hands. Id absolutely see them again for any future change-outs or piercings!

I got my septum pierced by Nicholas and the experience was 10/10! The shop is spotless and covered in beautiful artwork. Nicholas and their apprentice were friendly, professional and made the whole experience comfortable and fun. I’ve gotten piercings in half a dozen other shops, but I’ll definitely be returning to Burning Hearts!

Got a daith piercing done a few weeks ago by Corey and they did a fantastic job! Nicholas checked over the placement and supervised the piercing, which Corey executed wonderfully. This was my 9th piercing and is definitely healing the best so far. Would highly recommend Corey and Nicholas!

Awesome shop right in the center of Hamden. Ive been getting tattooed for 18 years, this place is clean and welcoming as soon as you walk in. Wes is the owner and does killer work. Ill definitely only come back to Burning Hearts. Rest of the artist are really nice and give off a chill vibe, unlike other shops Ive been to. 100% recommend to anyone from now on.

I have been coming to BHT for the last 1 1/2 for my tattoos and piercings. Everyone there is amazing and so cool. I’ve always had issues with my piercings but ever since Nicholas started piercing me I’ve never had an issue, always the most smoothest healing process ever!! He’s so nice and genuine. Will always be coming here the next time I need another piercing!

Just left from getting my nose pierced by Nicholas. Cant lie, I was very nervous at first (usually I dont do great with needles outside of getting tattoos) but he made me feel very comfortable and much less anxious than when I originally walked in. While I was there, we had great conversations and that definitely made the whole experience awesome. Hes super knowledgeable, thoroughly clean, precise and accurate, and took his time to make sure everything was lined up and perfect. 12/10 would recommend anyone looking to get pierced goes to see him. I will definitely be back in the future!

The staff are nice and knowledgeable. They carry top notch brands for piercings so they arent your average run of the mill tattoo shop.

Corey was amazing. They were extremely knowledgeable about piercings, they kept it professional, and clean. 10/10 would go back for another piercing, thank you!

Shout out to Corey, apprenticing under Nick, for doing an AMAZING job piercing my daughter. The level of cleanliness, and explanation of the sanitation process, and follow up care was superb. It is currently 72 hrs post piercing and this is the first Ive ever seen without any redness or crusting around the piercing.Thank you Corey for making the whole ordeal as painless as possible for a young lady who has been begging for years for her nose pierced.

This was such an amazing experience! My partner and I went and got large gauge piercings (he 00g and me 0g) from Nicholas and Corey(hope that’s how you spell it). They made sure we knew what was goin on, and were professional, cleanly, and above all else kind. Always feel safe and welcomed in the shop and will definitely be back. Thank y’all both so much! Could not recommend you more.

9/7/21 I scheduled a septum piercing with @nicholasthegeezer. I went into the appointment very nervous but he made me comfortable and feel at home in the shop. I could tell he genuinely cares about his clients and the quality of work he provides to them. I won’t recommend anybody else! UPDATE 3/14/22 I went back with my brother to get our nostrils pierced by Nick’s apprentice, Corey (@hfod_rfop). Corey did a great job with my brother as this was his first body modification and he was nervous… quick, easy and looked great. Mine was a little more complicated as this piercing had to be lined up with my other existing nostril piercing. In addition to that, this jewelry Corey helped me pick out is a flat stud so there was no room for error or it would lay crooked on my nose. Needless to say they did a fantastic job and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.

Never had a piercing before this experience - got my nostril done here. Extremely clean and professional environment. Nicholas is so rad - walked into the shop anxious as no other, left feeling so happy with the experience. Def would recommend.

Corey is an excellent piercer. They were vey kind, calm and professional. They helped ease my fear of getting my nose pierced. Thank you for my great experience.

Absolutely incredible. The shop is clean and professional, with a friendly open and welcoming vibe. No one is treated like a stranger here. Wes did my work and he is a master in the craft. Nicholas chatted with me throughout the job, providing needed relief. However, they were good to let me listen to music and sit quietly for a bit too. They followed me on my choice to chat or not.I cant wait to get my next piece here.

I came to Nicholas with my sister a few weeks back to get our piercings done. She was getting a nose piercing and I was getting my industrial. Never having walked into a tattoo parlor before, I was so pleasantly surprised to see how clean, professional, and nice this place looked! Also being semi-anxious I talked to Nicholas about my concerns around getting my piercings and completely took care of all my worries and deescalated my anxiety. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for both my sister and I. I 10/10 recommend going to Nicholas for piercings as his gentle hand and entertaining nature that can get any piercing over and done with quickly with complete satisfaction! Thanks Nicholas!

Amazing experience with Nicholas who did my 2nd and 3rd lobe piercing on each ear. He was extremely professional, attentive, and super knowledgable. Im also incredibly paranoid about cleanliness and I could not have been more impressed with the shop as a whole and with Nicks space. Clean from top to bottom. I love my piercings and cant recommend them enough!

Corey is an awesome person inside and out! So sweet and kind and verryy knowledgeable. They carefully took their time to make sure I had the straightest possible vertical labret and they did not disappoint! Also gave me tons of free stickers which I enjoyed :) 10/10 Worth EVERY penny!!!

Ive been going to BHT for about a year now, I will only use this shop. Staff is friendly welcoming and very knowledgeable. Shop is extremely clean. I work with the owner Wes and absolutely love the work hes done. Recommend this place to anyone looking to get tattooed or pierced.

Wes has been doing my tattoos for years now! Wes and the rest of his team are all extremely professional. Every time I have an idea for a tattoo, Wes is always excited and enthusiastic to get it started! I have also gotten piercings and they do a phenomenal job of explaining what is going to happen before they proceed. As far as the space is concerned this is the cleanest tattoo shop I have ever set foot in! I highly recommended Wes and the rest of his staff!

Nick is super personable and I had a great time for the two tattoos I got from him. I admit I’m not the best sit but Nick worked through it and gave me two masterpieces. Will be going to him for all my future ink

Overall great experience! Corey is the best! Very easy going, professional, and made me and my friend both feel really comfortable during our piercings! Would highly recommend!

Corey is so welcoming! They allow you to feel so comfortable through the entirety of the process. I have been impressed with my experiences at burning hearts!!

Nick was super nice and patient. Me and my friend went and both got a helix and a daith piercing. The jewelry was very nice but more on the pricey side. We definitely paid a lot more than we planned on paying for piercings but are very happy with the end results. My only complaint was when it was time to give the tip. We actually tipped based on the total which we didn’t think about until afterwards considering the earrings were on the total. there’s no reason to tip for earrings just for the service. But other than that I would definitely recommend this place and go back there again for sure

We came to Nicholas and Burning Hearts for a snake bite lip piercing for my 16 year old because NY was not allowing these piercings due to COVID. It was well worth the two hour round trip. The shop is clean and uses all the right safety protocols. Nicholas is knowledgeable, professional, and communicates the process and the aftercare clearly. My kid’s mouth is not symmetrical and Nicholas took the time to line up the piercings perfectly before proceeding. He also has a gorgeous collection of jewelry that I have not seen at other shops. I would not trust anyone else with my kid’s future piercings so we will be doing a lot of future driving up to CT!

Came here to have my nose piercing that had closed up re-pierced by Corey. They were so professional and friendly and explained each step of the process and how to take care of the piercing. The piercing itself was quick and easy and I didn’t have any redness or pain afterwards. Highly recommend this place and Corey!

I LOVED this place. My friend recommended it to me and I am forever thankful for her. I was immediately (and warmly) welcomed right at the door and felt totally at home and at ease. Corey was so patient and thorough during the whole process, and just a pure genuine soul. I will forever be raving about them and this place! Easy 5/5.

My friend and I got tattoos done by Mickey who is apprenticing at Burning Hearts Tattoo. Mickey was great from the start; I booked with him via Instagram and he answered all of my questions ahead of time. Once we got there he was very welcoming and greeted everyone who entered the shop. Mickey was very conscious of how my friend and I felt and made sure we were comfortable the whole time. He asked us how we were doing during the tattoo, let us know if we didn’t feel good to let him know, etc. I was very happy with his professionalism as well as his work! Thank you again Mickey!

Called Bleeding Heart, after reading all their amazing reviews, to make an appointment to get my daughter’s nose pierced. Jay was amazing. He was extremely polite and very informative over the phone. When we arrived we were helped right away. Jay, their body piercing expert, was patient and answered all our questions with detailed explanation. Would definitely recommend Jay and the Bleeding Heart Tattoo & Piercing. Will definitely be returning!! 😉

Me and my boyfriend came in and got 3 piercings each, Nicholas the geezer did all 6 of them and he did a flawless job! I gotta say I’ve tried a lot of piercing shops out here and have really struggled to find an awesome piercer, and it looks like my search is finally over, I would definitely recommend to go here for your piercings. The environment was really nice, clean and comftorable and he really took his time to make sure everything was even and perfect which I appreciated a lot(:- came back in a few weeks later to downsize everything and get 2 more piercings, I got a vertical labret and a tongue piercing and once again they were done perfectly and I’m so obsessed with them and how perfectly symmetrical they are, I now have 5 piercings from nick and they are all perfect, do yourself a favor and go here for your piercing needs(:

Recently had my septum pierced by Nicholas and was blown away by the incredible service! The shops cleanliness certainly puts you at ease, as does the very thorough steps taken by Nicholas to ensure you know exactly what is going on during your visit! His kindness & professionalism makes it a great experience.

Had some jewelry changed out and a new septum hoop put in by Nicholas, he was absolutely fantastic and great to work with. They had some really great gold options (my personal favorite). I would highly recommend him for any of your piercing and body jewelry needs!

Super kind, clean and professional! I just got a nostril piercing from here and had a great experience. Nicolas and his staff are really nice and you can tell they know what they’re doing. Definitely recommend this place

Privileged to say that we have watched and supported this locally owned and operated business grow. Burning Heart Tattoo Co. has opened this new facility now in Hamden and we still follow and support as they’re recently renovated and super clean. Staff is amazing and friendly as well as accommodating. We will continue to visit anytime we need ink/piercing therapy. Thanks Wes and staff!

My partner and I were pierced by Nicholas, who is such a sweet and genuine dude along with his apprentice Cory. We were walked by every step of the process and everything was super clean and organized. Would 100% recommend for piercings!

Mickey did a great job on a cover up tattoo for me. I love it and I’m grateful for it. I have dozens of tattoos and this was my first tattoo since being diagnosed with a medical condition that unfortunately increases my anxiety. Mickey was patient and professional. I would get another tattoo by him and I would recommend him. He is newer to tattooing but I have no doubt he will do great in this career!

My First Tattoo experience was second to none!!! Wes absolutely killed it on my forearm piece and bands around both arms. The place was immaculately clean and very welcoming. Everyone was extremely friendly. I will definitely be getting future tattoos done here!

I already left a private review, but i just had to review this place for everyone to see!this place = AMAZING. the environment is so friendly and clean! coming into the shop, i was greeted by apprentice, Corey, who was incredibly sweet. they asked me what i was here for, listened to every single concern i had, and was able to make me feel relaxed even though the circumstances were stressful.i, unfortunately, did not get my philtrum pierced at this shop. i got it done at another shop, but i so wish nicholas did my piercing. both nicholas and corey took the time to explain to me why the piercing was done incorrectly and took the time to tell me what my next steps are.i got my philtrum piercing removed here, it hurt like a b (unintentionally ofc, nicholas made sure i was okay the whole time) and he let me know that he would see me in 8 weekshe gave me a long, detailed aftercare list which i am forever grateful for.i can not wait to make an appointment at the 8 week mark so he can check me out so i am ready to be pierced again!if nicholas or corey are reading this, i did walk out in tears which is why i rushed out so fast so i am sorry i didn’t get the chance to give you a proper goodbye, but i feel instant relief on my lip and the bubble is starting to go away. thank you guys so much again and i hope to see y’all in 8 weeks!

I Went to Burning Hearts for a piercing. While the offered jewelry was beautiful and certainly of top quality, $530 for a single 10mm hoop was completely unexpected and out of my budget. Unfortunately only one other option was available, an implant grade surgical steel horseshoe for an additional $55 bringing the price of an ear piercing to $110. The price of the piercing, $55, does not include jewelry as I have grown accustomed to. The staff was courteous and professional, the shop was immaculate. But I still left disappointed, confused and honestly rather embarassed. Sadly, I would not return to this shop in the future.UPDATE: I received a response from the shop and wanted to clarify that the cost of the piercing is $35 for a total of $106.35 after tax and jewelry is added. This is apparently stated on their booking site which I missed. With that said, this is still quite a bit above the market range. I was able to get my piercing done at another reputable shop for $65 which included taxes and a titanium fixed bead ring.

This is my second time at Burning Hearts for a piercing, and both times, Corey was so professional and helpful! They have a steady hand and a calm energy that helped keep me at ease while being stabbed by needles. Not an easy feat. Would definitely recommend Burning Hearts (and specifically Corey’s work) to anyone who needs some new holes in their face.

Taylor is the best piercer..dare I say...ever??!! At 46 I got my first helix, and she is phenomenal!! GREAT bedside manner, and is super knowledgeable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!! And a very, very reputable tattoo/piercing shop!! Go..GO!!

Wes and the shop great to deal with. Very clean and neat. Wes is a very talented artist that I completely trust him with mine and my wifes tattoo needs. We have been going to burning hearts since they opened and would not go anywhere else. I would highly recommend this shop for all of your tattoo and piercing needs.

I a few weeks ago got my lower lip pierced by @nicholasthegeezer and I will say it is the best piercing/ tattoo shop experience I’ve had.. He was very kind, very chill, and explained everything super well. It was super cleanly and well kept shop. A great vibe. As soon as I’m back from college I’ll be heading back for another.

Someone had referred me to Burning Hearts for this peircing. I was incredibly hopeful that I was making the best decision to see Nicholas for a piercing after reading many good reviews. He was professional and very knowledgeable. However my experience is nothing like all the other reviews Ive read that made me confident in seeing him. When you book your appointment with a deposit the fine print lets you know that if you are more than 5 minutes late you forfeit your appointment. I respect that rule and the professionals time. Although that doesnt appear to be reciprocated to the customer. I showed up 15 minutes early, provided my license, signed a waiver, and choose jewelry all before my appointment time. I first felt uncomfortable when it came to selecting jewelry. I was asked to pick one in a display case to then realize that it was over 500 dollars. I had laughed because I thought Nicholas was making a joke. And he looked at me so seriously and couldnt even crack a smile for the fact that I had no idea. I did not read anything about the high expense of the jewelry they provide. I was made to feel pretty uncomfortable to not know this. I had then chosen the most basic jewelry and paid for it and the service before it was performed. At that point you can also provide a tip, which I did...but it was hard to know what to tip when I was already uncomfortable and the service didnt happen yet. I then sat in a room for 30 minutes while the equipment was being sterilized. I understand they do this when you are there and have you initial the sterilization strip as a comforting process of knowing they take sterilization very seriously. Which is great. But I was left alone in a room during this time only feeling more anxious. When the sterilization was done and Nicholas came into the room I had been debating walking out without the service. His demeanor was very transactional. I felt like a number, not a valued customer. Everything he said sounded very robotic and quick. I did not receive the personable experience that Ive read with so many other reviews. It made it very hard for me to relax. Truthfully if he had smiled even just once, I think it would have made a drastically better experience. I completely understand we all can have bad days. He may have had something personal going on and I understand that. But I also would have appreciated even having the appointment rescheduled, if that was the case, so I could have a more pleasant experience that would make me want to come back and refer someone else. I appreciate the time he took to provide the service. Im hopeful his expertise and explanation for after care will leave my piercing in good health.

The experience was amazing! a you get what you pay for and i’m not mad about it! The environment was super neat and clean. Nick made it comfortable and explained what he was doing specifically. 10/10 .. i’ll definitely go again for my other piercings.

Got a couple piercings here from the piercer Michayla a couple weeks ago! She did such a good job, was really helpful with any questions I had and was very friendly. The shop was also really clean and open, I enjoyed the atomosphere made the entire experience so much better. Would go back for my next piercings!

My sister and I went to get our noses pierced and we had an amazing time! Nicholas was very kind and fun to be around! I will 11/10 come here for any other piercings I want to get!! Very clean and professional!

Ive gotten two tattoos by joe so far and have had a great experience! Hes very professional and friendly. He does great work and is definitely worth the 2 hour drive from MA. The entire environment is very clean as well. I will always continue to come back :)

Absolutely love this place! Great atmosphere and everyone is always so friendly while youre there! All my tattoos have been done by Wes. I am getting two more small pieces in a few weeks! He takes pride in all of his work no matter how big or small. Honestly, cant go wrong and I recommend this shop to everyone I know. :)

Awesome experience. I had two cover up tattoos that I needed done and Wes did both of them. They came out absolutely stunning and I couldnt be happier. Wes is an incredibly talented artist, courteous, very down to earth, and easy to talk to which is great because it made the time fly by. Everyone there is very professional, friendly, and the shop is very clean. I already plan on going back for more very soon. Absolutely worth it!

I have never seen a more sterile environment… Very clean, this place was immaculate…2 ear piercings were EXTREMELY expensive .The price listed was totally misleading…The price was $60 for two ears listed on website. When I called we were told jewelry was separate… which I understood. BUT there’s a CATCH!! the earring POST and the GEM are sold as two separate pieces and prices… making the jewelry itself come to $150 in addition… PLUS a $10 fee for after care directions and solution which should have been included for the price or at least be given the option of whether we wanted to purchase the solution.…I was totally blindsided…Although the piercer Nicholas was extremely thorough and Knowledgeable and made the experience comfortable… I felt this was a bait and switch tactic with the earrings themselves… I did not see any prices on the website or in the shop for the jewelry so I did not even think it would HELP be even close to that…If the prices were there I never found them. I suppose we could have not gone through but my son was already too excited to turn back and I did not want to disappoint him…⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️sterile clean environment💰 💰 💰 💰 Price( I understand we are paying for quality )🙁👎🏻Extremely disappointed in the hidden fees and kept telling us to refer to the website which wasn’t helpful. In ADDITION we have to go back in 6 weeks to get posts removed and Replaced with shorter ones for an additional $10 plus additional cost for the shorter posts..Like another 60 bucksUnless you are a Germaphobe freak or have a ton of money I would NOT recommend going here to get a SIMPLE EAR PIERCING……👍🏻 however other body piercing sites require this type of environment and in that case this place I would recommend

My husband and I got a tattoo from Joe. He was phenomenal. He did an extremely great job and went above and beyond to meet our needs. The place was clean and everything was well packaged and opened in front of us. Also, he stood working late just to get us in. We are appreciative of what hes done and would recommend him to family and friends. Thank you Joe for a fantastic job.

Got nose pierced today by nicholas! Super sweet and made the process very comfortable. Very knowledgeable and precise and explained every single detail and step he was going to do. I 10000000% recommend Nicholasthegeezer for piercings. I will also definitely be booking for a tattoo real soon

I’ve been looking for a new tattoo artist since mine left the industry, and through a recommendation reached out to Burning Heart Tattoo (BHT). First off, I want to say just how clean the shop is. Everything looks immaculate, and the crew follows all COVID protocols. I really felt as comfortable as possible during my tattoo. I worked with Cariann and she was incredible. My tattoo was a small one, but she paid as much attention to the detail and craftsmanship as if it were something much larger. I already booked more work with her! Overall, an awesome experience. If you’re anywhere in the area, or even have to travel, I highly recommend BHT.

Super clean place! Wes (owner) is a great guy and has always been friendly toward me! Here Ive only been tattooed by Eric Coffin, but hes amazing and I love his style! I never have to worry about getting infected or getting oogled at in here. Highly recommend!

I just got my first tattoo and im in love with it, everyone is super nice there. Ive also gotten my belly button pierced here and both my experiences were great. My piercing and tattoo both look great, if youre looking for high quality body art, go here!

The moment you walk into this place you know youre in a professional environment. Its not a dive shop by any means . They are so clean follow covid guidelines. Right from walking into the door to leaving youre treated so nice and by everyone not just the artist youre working with. I had Wes as my artist and it was the most calming experience I have ever had and I have been to a few shops lol. His work is beyond amazing the quality I mean I wish I could write as neat as him lol . The talk was great while he was doing the work which helps . The price was without a doubt reasonable I would have paid double because my experience there and his work is so good . If your looking for a new tattoo this is for sure the place to go !

The only shop I will ever go to. I’ve been tattooed by Wes, Eric, and Cariann over the past 4 years. Each experience was amazing. Everyone is so welcoming and accommodating. Walk-ins are not only appreciated but they will make time for you if they don’t already have appointments booked. The appointments are worth it. Each tattoo has come out beautifully with amazing color, opacity, and linework. I have never felt so comfortable. I hope to get at least one piece by everyone in the shop because everyone is so amazing.

From the moment you walk into burning hearts you can tell you are in the right place. Completely clean and organized. All the artists were incredibly friendly and personable. The artists had a variety of flash available and were equally talented in creating a piece just for you. I already knew what I wanted and spoke with Wes about size and scale. I wasn’t 100% sure on the exact location on my hand I wanted my piece but Wes helped me with the proper placement to really help the piece come to life. I’d strongly recommend to any to give burning hearts a go you won’t be disappointed.

I only trust wes to tattoo me! My experience with him and his shop has always been very pleasant. Hes professional, and friendly. My oldest daughter had her first tattoo done by him on her 18th birthday, she also was very happy with her experience. he helped put her mind at ease, as she was very nervous being her first tattoo.

I was a little nervous for my first tattoo, but after reading all the amazing reviews, my cousin and I decided to come here. Eric was amazing; Im so happy with the way it turned out! The place was very clean, and Eric was able to answer all the questions we had, even the day after. I would totally recommend this place to anyone!

Had a great experience with this shop’s piercer, Nicholas. Jewelry change for nostril and a new septum piercing. Super professional, knowledgeable and put me right at ease. He also carries high quality jewelry. Could not recommend him more!

My first tattoo and my daughters first tattoo by Wes. Been following his work for a long time. All amazing tattoo artist there. People were cool and curtious. Also my daughter got her nose pierced the same day. Just down to earth cool people, made us feel comfortable

2 years, 2 tattoos and counting! My artist is Joe Murph. His style is unique but traditional and he adds his own touch to his work. I absolutely love his work and am so proud of the two pieces he has done on me. He takes his time and puts his heart and soul into his work. The great attention to detail, color, and artistic ability is what drew me to choosing Joe. Great artist who really makes sure youre comfortable at every step of the process. The other artists do some pretty amazing work and you can see it from the shops social media pages and through customers public posts. Definitely a great experience and shop and theyre very reasonable. I look forward to getting my next tattoo from Joe soon! Keep up the good work!!

This place is worth driving out of your way for. I’ve only seen Chris Edge here, but all of the other people here who work here are always busy, friendly and their work looks great as well. Strongly recommend if you’re looking for some extremely high quality tattoos. Chris Edge is a very skilled and talented artist- I’m very thankful I decided to choose him for my tattoos

My experience with Burning Hearts tattoo company was great 😊 everyone was very nice and the place is extremely clean sadly I had to get my earring removed due to scar tissue but once it heals in 8 weeks I’m definitely going back and letting Corey do it she’s Amazing. Go to Burning Hearts tattoo company you won’t be disappointed

This place is great! Super clean and they go the extra mile to ensure the tools they are using are sterilized. I had my nose pierced by Nick and He was so personable and answered all my questions. He’s extremely professional and very experienced. This is the place to go!

This is such a little hidden jem! I’ve been pierced (many times) by Michayla, and she’s fantastic! Very knowledgeable, clean, patient, and professional! She knows her stuff!! We have a little piercing project going on, and I cannot wait to see the final result!!I highly recommend this shop! Everyone is so welcoming, chill, and kind!!

Cariann and Eric are amazing! Love them and their work! 😎The shop is always clean and organized when I go in.Pro tip: any time you want more than one tattoo done at a time, make an appointment. It’s a tattoo shop, not a Dunkin’ donuts. Don’t just walk in, especially on a weekend, and expect them to do more than one thing on you or your friends. They will most likely already be booked for the day. 🤷‍♀️

My go to for tattoos and piercings. At this point most of my tattoos have been done at this shop and I’ve never had a complaint. Everyone I’ve interacted with has always had a great attitude and I always suggest Burning Hearts to people looking for new tattoos or piercings. Love this place

3 tattoos Ive gotten here all from Cariann. This place is incredibly clean, neat, organized, professional and they really listen. All of my tattoos have come out better than I ever thought. Ive also gotten a piercing here and Ive had no issues.

Got my nose pierced by @Nicholasthegeezer and he was so sweet! Made me very comfortable and explained all about it and the cleaning process so well. He even wiped the tears after I was done:) Great experience for me!

I see alot of these reviews are good but they tried to force my girlfriend to buy their expensive jewelry. This place is not affordable at all. They wouldnt do the piercing without her buying over 500 dollar jewelry.

Since my first tattoo here, Burning Hearts will always be my first choice when Im looking to get tattooed; specifically by the hands of tattoo artist Joe Murph. All of my tattoos are from this talented guy, as his warm & friendly presence gives me a craving to continue getting work done from him. Not to mention, Joe pays CLOSE attention to detail when you explain your idea to him, and executes it with PRECISE craftsmanship during the appointment. I am very picky with tattoos..and Joe has always seemed to hit the nail on the head in executing the vision I have for the tattoo. This shop is SO clean, professional, and friendly, to the extent where my hour-long drive for a tattoo from this place is more than worth it. I would recommended Joe to ANYONE looking to get a tattoo because he masters VARIOUS tattoo styles, and has every intention of giving you something worth showing off. Very compassionate guy that genuinely cares about his clients & truly loves what he does.

Corey did my eyebrow piercing and it was a super clean, professional and painless experience! I would definitely recommend them

Went to cariann for a tattoo! she was extremely professional and talented. i love it! michayla, one of the piercers, pierced my mother’s ears for her birthday. she was thorough, clean, friendly, and all around an amazing piercer. would totally recommend them to anyone looking for a tattoo or piercing!

Although I have not had any tattoos personally by joe, I have first hand seen the amount of time and effort he puts into each and every clients piece. His attention to detail, dedication to his work, creativity, and professional demeanor is shown with every tattoo, as I have seen hundreds of them on my friends and coworkers. Whenever I am asked who to go to for tattoo advice and needs, I automatically say Joe, and have heard nothing but positive feedback. :)

I got my first tattoo from here and was so nervous. The staff made me feel confident and relaxed. Everyone is so professional and the studio is very clean. I will definitely be coming back for another!!

Absolutely amazing place for piercings! actually professional piercers, sanitized everything and has actually body safe jewlery! absolutely no issues.

Went for a nose piercing and the head piercer, her name is Bell, she is the best. Omg. She is amazing and really made me felt at home. Did it with ease and will definitely go back to her. Highly recommend this place.

I got a GORGEOUS tattoo during their annual toy drive on by their incredible artist, Dani! So fun, everyone was so nice and just chill to be around, super great experience and I’m so in love with my tattoo! This place is amazing go look at their insta! @burningheartstattoo

I have a beautiful dermal on my face done by Chayla. She was so nice, professional and everything was really clean. Healed up nice and she answered all my questions. This shop has such a great vibe. I will be back, either to see Chayla or book a tattoo apt with Joe Murphy. Thanks guys 💜 next time Im grabbing a t shirt.

Corey did a great job and was very thorough ! got an ear lobe piercing and felt no more than a pinch.

Just got my nose pierced here! @nicholasthegeezer was very clean, precise, and most of all had a great personality. Will definitely be going back for any future work.

Overall the experience was ok. Had a 7pm appt, wasnt attended to until 740ish with nobody else in the shop. It would be nice to have a price range of the jewelry posted online or somewhere in the shop.

Great experience!! corey was incredibly kind and professional, while still keeping the whole process fun. they seemed very passionate about what they were doing and kept the entire process very simple for everyone.

Joe Murphy is awesome. Great artist and all around guy. A lot of talent at Burning Heart. Im seeing some reviewsabout price, this place has great pricing and very affordable. I drive an hour to come here because it is worth it.

Friendly and talented staff, very clean environment. Helpful every step of the way from finalizing the design to after care of the tattoo. I have been three times and will continue to support this shop.

Had some work done a little while back by a guy named Joe A. I felt the tattoo its self was poorly done and the artist was in a rush and could care less. It on my arm and is very visable ask me all the time if its colored in with crayon or why its off. Just a poor job all around. I asked to speak with a manager multiple times to try and get this fixed no one ever reached back to me. And I debated on posting a review but I dont want people to have to deal with what I have dealt with!! Will post a picture of my awefull tattoo in the Google Picture.

Nicholas was super friendly, professional, and assuring. I had a great experience with my piercings and would highly recommend him to anyone!

I got a nose (nostril) piercing, and it looks amazing! The shop is super clean and the piercer really knows what he’s doing. Highly recommend!

I got an industrial piercing done by Corey. They were absolutely amazing and very kind. I love my piercing and it was very affordable.

Top notch shop with top notch artists. A great environment for the seasoned tattoo collector or the newbie going for their first one. I have gotten tattooed by Wes and will be going back for more.Go in and talk to the staff and see it first hand for yourself.

Have to agree that the piercer here (Nick, I believe) is absolutely amazing. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, professional, and cares about every person seeking help. Thanks for everything, Nick!

I go there regularly and get work done by an artist named Joe Murph. He is very professional and very precise with his art. Ive been to several different artists from all over and this one has got to be the most detail-oriented, caring, flexible artist Ive dealt with. You can tell he puts heart into his work and doesnt just do it for a paycheck. If I were to recommend a shop to anyone, this one would be #1 on my list. And they can have Joe Murph to thank for that one.

The shop is clean, staff friendly and helpful. Jay took care of piercings for a party of 5, he is patient, personable, and he knows his craft. I would highly recommend this plce

I had the pleasure of getting my ink done by Cariann and she did an amazing job of bringing my idea to light. I will definitely be coming back again for another tattoo. Great service and business! Need a tattoo they’re the place to go. Thank you Cariann 💪🏽

Wes has done a few larger pieces for me! The entire shop staff has been nothing short of courteous, friendly and professional at all times!I recommend Burning Hearts often whenever I get asked about those particular pieces.

Its amazingly clean and very professional. Wes does excellent Tattoos and Taylor did a piercing that I did not even feel. I stick with what I like. Im not going anywhere else.

Ive gotten a few tattoos done by the talented Joe Murph Atherton. Ive been very content with my outcomes.

I have West do all my tattoos! He does a amazing job every time!

Such a great clean place. Chris is awesome and such a nice down to earth guy. My tattoo is awesome and can’t wait for my next appointment with him. Thanks Chris for the great work

Always a great experience at this shop! very clean nice facilities, knowledgeable staff, and amazing artists. Ive gotten two pieces by Wes and couldnt be happier with them. Very professional yet down to earth atmosphere.

Wes and Chris are great artists, and Burning Hearts is a clean, professional environment. Thanks guys!

A wonderful shop. Professional, friendly, and hygienic shop. Cariann was extraordinary: beautiful art, beautiful execution, and she made this old-timer, first-timer, feel welcomed and comfortable. 6 out of 5 stars.

Very glad to have chosen Burning Hearts for my first tattoo. Very clean and everyone I dealt with was pleasant and helpful. Wes is an incredibly talented artist.

Ive seen Wes about 3 times for myself and a few other times when he did work on my friends and everything time whether its me or my friends he never disappoints. Whether you see Wes or not every artist there is a pleasure to work with

I had an amazing water color coverup done by Cariann. Im absolutely in love with it. She was very organized and professional. I would definitely recommend her :)

Most tattoo parlors have a similar vibe, sort of dark and edgy. This place was different. Great staff and amazing work. I will be going back again and recommend you visit as well.

Taylor, their piercer, is great. Shes kind, thorough, knowledgeable, patient, and really takes her time explaining her process and aftercare. Highly recommend.

Wes is unbelievabily the most understanding of how I wish my ink to appear and be interupreted. Excellent Repairs to cover scars. Clean and sterile way beyond the highest standards. I wouldnt go anywhere else. Not before or after my Transplant or Cancer or Amputation.Taylor is awsome, only one I see.

I got a messed up tattoo from Blue owl tattoo so it had to be redone and Im really happy so far, I have to go one more time to get it completed but very nice artist, very polite and a good artist. I already booked another appointment for a different tattoo because Im that happy so far

Got my tats done here twice and I love the awesome people here and their skills are on point. Very nice people. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a new tat.

Such a rad shop with super talented artists and piercers. I’ve had both tattoos and piercings done here - 10/10 would recommend!!

I have gotten 2 tattoos from here so far and im not willing to go anywhere else. They have a few artists who all have their own style. If you want a tattoo you should look in to this place.

Everyone at this shop is absolutely amazing! I get all my work done here. They are all very nice and will work with you with your design. This is my place to go. I very much recommend everyone here.

Ive been to two other shops for ink years ago before coming in for new ink with Wes. Fantastic!! I cant wait for my next piece. Great experience!

Great clean professional shop. I have multiple works of art done there and will continue to go there. Everyone is approachable and and down to earth. Would recommend and will be back for sure.

I called Jay Mynahan ask Jay Mynahan questions and jay just said book an appointment online without answering my questions saying the pricing on there is what he charges jay told me to go make an appointment it says body pericing are 45 to 85 so i booked the appointment then he doubles the price to 150 and jay excuse is on the website its general pricing but it clearly says body pericing but they ended up talking to me and we had a misunderstanding but he did keep his word and he did the pericing so at the end of the day more communication and everything would been good but jay Mynahan did an amazing job his skills are on point

Nicholas was friendly and professional. I was nervous for my piercings but he was so thorough and reassuring. Thanks!

We went to get our daughters ears pierced. Nick was excellent and we all had a really great experience!!

Extremely clean shop. Talented artists and very reasonable prices. I highly recommend. Wes in particular is a great artist.

I really hate having to say I dont recommend this place but our experience wasnt the best tattoos are permanent and should be done beautifully its not the actual tattoo thats regret its the artist we choose. Do you research before going here.

Will never go anywhere else :) this place is amazing, and I’m for sure a life-long customer now. Thanks, Nicholas!

Wes is one of the best in the game. Friendly service, one of the cleanest shops I have ever been in and the work is flawless. Highly recommend if youre in CT.

Everywhere I go people ask about my tattoos, and everywhere I go, I tell them Burning Hearts. Wes & Eric are not only extremely talented, but super friendly, professional, and prompt. Thanks guys!

Great place! We brought our 16 year old daughter for a nose piercing and Jay was awesome! Highly recommend

Great service and awesome people in general. Gotten a lot of work done here. 8 tats.. 7 piercings. Lots of jewelry for the piercings.

Had my first tattoo br the apprentice Cary Anne.. I loved it. Enjoyed her patience and deft touch. Ill look forward to something by her eventually

Very professional and informative. Answered all of my questions on my new piercing and was very happy with my experience. Would recommend.

I had an amazing experience at burning hearts. Got tattooed by Joe and he did a phenomenal job. He was super nice and professional too!!

I went in to get a tragus piercing and everything was great, the lady who pierced was super nice and I’m definitely coming back to her to get my nose bridge pierced

Clean friendly shop. No judgment and every artist is down to earth. I would recommend them to anyone, for a first or 100th tattoo.

Been going here to see Joe for over four years now. I wont go anywhere else everyone here is friendly and its a very calm atmosphere. Love it everyone is very sweet and talented.

Very clean and great atmosphere. I was very comfortable at this shop and the artist I went to (Joe) was very skilled and patient. Overall it was a really great experience.

Got a nose piercing for my teen daughter, wonderful care and experience!

Jay makes holes! Hes the best piercer Ive come across! Quick, informative, clean, and relatively painless.

Have been coming here for 5+ years, great artists and piercers! They are by far the best around, only shop I will go to

Jay is such a great piercer ! Highly recommend. The place as a whole Extremely clean and professional.

Thank you thank you thank you for this beautiful nose piercing Michayla! Cleanest and most welcoming place ive ever been i cant wait to come back. 💙

Very cool. Very professional. Clean. Right on! Thank you Mickey for the awesome tat! You are a star 🌟 🤩

Great place, i went to wes. depending on what u want theyll let you know who to go to. work in progress takes a few sessions to finish your masterpiece

Went in for a simple nose piercing, quick clean and super professional not to mention Sunday hours rock.

Had a sitting with a artist there and every thing was pleasant from begining to end. Clean comfortable and the music wasnt even blasting which to me is a great thing.

Wes, the owner, is who Ive gotten most of my tattoos from and he is clean, professional and does an amazing job.
