20 minute wait for a $10 septum piercing? By a cute girl? Sign me up. Before you ask, yes it does hurt a little, but the pierce is finished is 0.25 seconds. 4 stars because this place obviously isnt top-notch. If you need a piercing, theyre $10 on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

Loved the guy working there forgot to get his name he did me and and my boyfriends nose studs. Super quick not to painful didnt let me chicken out and take forever like my other piercers walked in and was out in 10minutes and super reasonable price he even replaced my other stud for me that I had accidentally pulled out earlier that day. Loved the experience very nice didnt even make fun of me for being nervous he actually hyped me up for it. Great guy(in the pic its my right nostril he did) also its perfectly even.

When she was piercing my nose it started bleeding a lot and she said the jewelry was hard to put in my nose so it was painful trying to get it in my nose and after they was done my piercing was crooked and when I told her she said it was because of swelling but it’s been a few weeks and it’s still crooked and you can see it’s pierced wrong. I’m going to take it out and go somewhere else.

I absolutely love going there to get my tattoos done, especially with Yenying! She did my first tattoo at 18 and since then most of my tattoos have been by her! She always explains the process so well, checks on me during, and is such a bright spirit. Just overall great sessions every time!

I should’ve asked for my piercers name, but he was so nice! He pierced my septum perfectly. I was so nervous but he did it so fast I couldn’t even feel it.

The absolute sweetest people! I had Bambi as my artist and she was just so amazing. I will be coming to her for so many more in the near future!!

Went Saturday night with my daughter to get a belly button piercing. I don’t know the guys name but he was super cool and quick. I would give 5 stars but the chick that was in there with him working was very rude! Not rude to me personally though.

They say when you get your first ink or piercing you are addicted. I brought my kids here to get a belly piercing and Yes its true because every time you look I am in that place! What I did recognize is the sterile procedures they go through, they are extremely strict about under aged teens, which is why I am always there with them. They even require birth certificates and Identification for all parties involved. I appreciate how professional they are. The assistant was supportive and any questions we had she was glad to answer and very informative to the point it was almost educational. The atmosphere is nice and I did not mind being there an hour or longer. Some things do take time and I appreciate they were not rushing because the place was full of customers. Believe me, nobody seemed to be in a hurry and everyone waited patiently and not a complaint once. This was a first time Ive witnessed ALL CUSTOMERS WERE CALM. Thanks guys, of course Ill be coming back with my kids until they are old enough to go alone. I appreciate that they cannot go behind my back and get piercings without my consent. We all had to be verified!

I will definitely be back here. The process was very fast and accurate. The workers and so nice and professional, and the hospitality goes beyond expectations!! If you are nervous for your first piercing, definitely come straight here!

This place was amazing, I went recently to get my septum. They were extremely professional, I was freaking myself out but they gave me water and sugar tabs before we even started to make sure i was ok. They let my friends sit next to me and it barely even hurt! The piercing never got infected and its in the perfect spot. I highly recommend this place

Review №11

Went get a nose piercing on Saturday , my total was $30 with the diamond stud and cleaning solution. Not sure if they still do the $10 special! Overall, Fen did a great job, great music, and vibe but seemed a little impatient. Nothing to worry about though.

The woman who pierced my daughter was so sweet and very careful. She walked her through the process and told her everything that was happening. Not to mention the awesome art in the building. 10/10 would recommend

Review №13

I just got my septum pierced here and it was a great experience. It only cost 20.00, I would definitely recommend it. The person who pierced me (sorry I dont know your name) was very nice and explained everything about the healing process. She made sure that it wasnt awkward and she let me use the mirror to see if I liked the way it was pierced.

Review №17

Derrick was one of the best artists I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with he took the time to perfectly line up my tattoo so it flowed with the ones I already have. I challenged him with the space I had and he nailed it! Derrick thanks for a great piece of art man I really appreciate it! If you’re looking to get some work done I highly recommend Derrick or from what I could see any artist there looks to have done some good work.

Review №19

Mitch is my artist, took my art and turned it into an amazing tattoo. he saw my vision and made it a reality. very chill, made me comfortable for my first tattoo, did the first half of a medium sized tattoo in one session. my 3 star rating is because my 40 minute tattoo took 3 hours. my appointment was at 4, the sketch and revised sketch took 1 hour, making the stencil took a while, we got ready to do the tattoo but he realized he left something at the other location, left for over 30 minutes, then took 40 to begin and finish my line art. Very nice tattoo experience, but professional brevity was lacking. arrived at 3:40, left after 7:00pm. If you have a day to spend planning and executing a tattoo, this is a good place for it! Thanks Mitch. had lots of fun.

Great service. Bought my 18 yr old daughter her 1st tattoo for her birthday. The artist was pleasant and made my daughter fill comfortable. Her ink art came out sweet! Im next to get myself a 5th tattoo and I will be going there for my next inking.

Review №23

The guy was rude and didn’t even put the flowers I had asked for, I have drawn a flower like that since I was 5. Plus his lines were WAYYYY too think for the dainty tattoo I wanted and a year later some of the flowers are already blending into blobs. Don’t get your tattoo here

Bambi so far has done two of my tattoos and the experience has been so good with her that I cant imagine getting tattooed by anyone else now. She does amazing and is the friendliest artist Ive ever had.

Review №25

I called ahead we had 5! Walkins and they accepted us politely all of us and the work they did was incredible we were all very satisfied with it it has a interior interior and the line work was perfect. When I gather all the photos of our tattoos Ill post them they did great !!! 10/10 will come here again

Review №26

My experience was absolutely horrible and this business doesnt deserve the one star given. I went to this shop after 6 days of getting my first lip piercing because I wanted to get spider bites. So before they even prepared me I told them Im scared and nervous, so can you be a little gentle? They then told me You should be fine. So then a man proceeds to clean the area of the piercing. As soon as he put the clamp on my lip I began to freak out, it was entirely too tight and it hurt really bad. He then realized he had put the clamp on my 6day old lip piercing, imagine my pain. So he tried again and I told him it was still too tight and I couldnt take that pain. He then took it off and began to complain about how he could have already pierced my lip if I would stop stopping him, not even trying to loosen the clamp for me. I then got up to show my friends and he quickly put everything away. Next telling me no refunds and I couldnt get it pierced unless I pay again bc he put everything away. This business is absolutely inconsiderate, impatient, and unprofessional in every way. I advise everyone to find another tattoo/piercing shop in Lafayette because Ink Gallery is a joke.

Review №27

She was so unprofessional she took a person that came three people after !!! I confronted her about and she going to say she didn’t know when she piercing she doesn’t have time for that . She didn’t even ask who was next! She stay high as it is !! I feel like she’s so lazy and doesn’t like her job. I’m so disgusted !

Review №29

I heard about there $10 piercings and called multiple times through your the week leading up to the Tuesday no one answered and when I showed up it said cash only on the door so I went and got cash and then came back just for them to tell me that they no longer do the $10 piercings it wasn’t much of a difference it was $20 a piercing which isn’t much but it’s already pouring down rain and I’ve already had to drive to this place twice when they could have just picked up there phones

Review №36

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! I walked in two days ago and there was a guy sitting in a room by the door. He was on his laptop. He looked at me and never said anything to me. After just standing around looking stupid after a few mins I asked if he worked here, and he said yea, what u need a piercing or tat. I told i had a question about a piercing that I had done a few days ago in Houston. He was so rude. I was looking to see if there was piece for my nose ring that could stop it from falling out my nose at night when im sleeping, he was no kind of help at all! My piercing had started to close, so I was thinking about getting it repierced, and possibly get my tongue pierced too. But after his nasty attitude, I was done! I went to another tattoo shop and they took real good care of me! I ended up getting two piercings and tattoo!

Came to this location multiple times for piercings. All 5 of them got infected. Ive gotten piercings from 3 different establishments. This is the only place ive gotten infected piercings and bad customer service EVERY TIME I went. And the other location is no better. I went to another tattoo shop after the infections cleared and had them repierced with no issues at all.
