Bleeding Heart Tattoo

Nate is the absolute best. I followed Nate from when he went from Cherry Bomb Tattoo company to Bleeding Heart Tattoo and can I say that he is absolutely the man you want to be going to for your tattoos. I told him that I wanted the water spirits from Avatar The Last Airbender and gave him some references and he made this absolutely beautiful piece of work. His work absolutely never disappoints.

Tommy did an amazing job for my first tattoo. He made the process super easy and is a super cool dude. Will absolutely be returning to get more work done by him !

Thank you Jared! Expected to have to pay a pretty penny for a whole new set of jewelry today (when i lost one small piece of the set 😕), which is great for fantastic quality jewelry like theirs; but he got me in and out for $10 with exactly what i needed which definitely suits the budget for right now much better. Love this place!

Started going to Jezabell months ago to finish a sleeve and get a cover up, since she advertises being a cover up specialist. She was certain she would be able to cover the previous work. The cover up looked good right after getting it done, but as it healed the work underneath started to show through even after multiple passes. After 4 sessions of trying to get a successful cover up, I ended up having to black out most of my lower arm because the cover up was ineffective. Lots of time, pain, and money was spent because of a promised cover up. Even though that didn’t go as planned, I wanted to continue working with her because, at that point, I wanted the work to match throughout the entire sleeve and I had already invested months of sessions with her.Additionally, in one session we were working in a different area of the sleeve and, even after careful planning and communication, Jezabell blacked out an area of the back of my arm that wasn’t supposed to be black. She spent most of that appointment talking to other people rather than focusing on my arm. After being told she would “fix” this mistake, she stopped responding to my messages about booking additional appointments with her. The completion of my sleeve and has been postponed and I’m in a wedding in a few months.I spent a lot of time at bleeding heart for several months and there are some amazing artists there and friendly people. But I wouldn’t recommend Jezabell. She overpromised, under delivered, and was unprofessional. The experience is highly frustrating.

Great artists and friendly staff make this place one of the best in the Metro area to get your new ink! Highly recommend coming here! My personal favorite artist is Jason, but from what I’ve seen, they are all talented!

Jason was AMAZING super chill demeanor which was perfect for my first tattoo. Went in nervous about having wonky lines and he quickly showed me he was a badass at tattooing he ended up free handing my tattoo. Highly recommend him and will be a regular with him.Good job dude, you killed it.

This is the best shop in the Kansas City metro area for tattooing. The artists are friendly and do high-quality work.

I wanted to make a review over my first tattoo. I just got it yesterday as a walk in and everything was perfect! Payton was especially nice helping out with questions and let us watch her prep everything for the tattoo. The artist who did mine is Tommy and i could not be happier! He got every little detail right, but more important he kept talking during the whole thing and made it even better of an experience. He made it very clear how to take care of the tattoo and I can guarantee i will be back in the future for more. Only thing is, you guys need better parking! 😂 Thank you!!!

Wonderful place, amazing artists. My husband and I got matching tattoos with them (our first tattos) a few years ago and loved them. Went back for my chest tattoo and the guy was amazing. I told him my idea and he designed an amazing piece. I have a pretty low pain tolerance and the artist was so calm and patient with me and made it a more comfortable experience. My husband went in about a week before that to get his ears pierced and the guy was a perfectionist. They came out amazingly. We plan on using them for our next tattoos and I am wanting to go back and get my own piercings done.

Vincent was awesome! I cant wait to schedule my next session!

If you want to be made to feel as if you are a bother and/or not worthy of a tattoo go to Bleeding Heart and talk to Jason. He will tell you that you are not about that life. He will also belittle you when he looks at your sketches by saying “are you an artist? I don’t do tattoos for artists”. And, rather than refer you to someone that could help you, he will act annoyed with you and rush you off.Funny, he had just done two tattoos for my friend and her husband earlier that day. Guess I wasn’t young or hip enough.His loss, I had money to spend and I’m a great tipper.

Place is amazing. As soon as we walked in we were greeted. They even have portfolios on a computer of everyone that works there. Everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable. I love mine. First time too!

I have both tattoos and piercings from here but this review is about the piercing. The tattoos they did a fantastic job on, no complaint. However, I went here for a septum piercing. When he pierced it, not only was it in the incorrect spot to where he had to force it through so we heard a pop noise, but it was so high up that when be put the jewelry in, it didnt even appear out of my nose. So he then had to immediately remove it and put a bigger ring in so it was very large in my nose. However when he removed it and fit the larger ring, it made another pop noise. So much pain and I ended up taking it out because even with the larger jewelry it STILL just barely showed from my nose. I went to a piercer in St Louis (Iron Age Studios) and he looked at it and was appalled at the placement saying theres a sweet spot for a septum piercing and they had completely botched it. I had to remove the jewelry, let it heal, and got it re-pierced at Iron Age where he did a fantastic job.

The women there were very helpful, the men that were working lacked people skills. My mom went in for her first ever tattoo to commemorate her mom who had just passed- she just wanted a little infinity sign, I was going to get one with her to match. We got quoted $120 for each tattoo. Both tattoos being less than two inches big. Go somewhere that doesn’t price gouge and take advantage of their customers.

I had the best experience at Bleeding Heart Tattoo! Everyone was extremely friendly and I felt very comfortable. Its a very cool shop and exceptionally clean. Ill definitely be back.

Jeremy always does an amazing job. It is great every time, and I couldnt be more pleased with his work and the experience as a whole! Would highly recommend Bleeding Heart to anyone looking to get a tattoo. Thanks, Jeremy!

These guys are awesome! So nice and easy to talk to. My tattoo is amazing, and I will be going back for ear jewelry, too! They do have an amazing selection. This is my new tattoo place!!

Hard a great experience here at Bleeding Heart! This is the tattoo and piercing place I would trust and go to, the people. There are extremely nice and especially no exactly what theyre doing, totally recommended

Love this place. Great atmosphere. Vincent is amazing! Turned an old tattoo into a work of art!

I looked up “tattoos shops open on Sundays” and stumbled across Bleeding Heart. I’m so happy I did, because I plan to come back for many more tattoos. The piercers in the front were so friendly when I was waiting, and they got me in for a walk in tattoo relatively quickly. Tommy did my tattoo and he was quick, talented and personable. 10/10 recommend!!!!!!!

Scott did an awesome job and was super easy to work with.

I had my first tattoo done here by an artist named Jason Matthews. He did great work, added an artistic flair to my tattoo idea and was quite nice and personable. If I get another tattoo I will certainly go back.

Ive had 3 sessions with Nathan and have another appointment scheduled in the future. Hes EXTREMELY WELL QUALIFIED IN WHAT HE DOES! I have no complaints and have been BEYOND satisfied with his with his work!! Anyone wanting a good tattoo artist I highly recommend using Nathan Church to create your artwork!! He doesnt disappoint. Im not selecting good value SIMPLY because some things arent made to be discounted!!! When someone is tattooing my body I dont look for a bargain or a discount. You get what you pay for and Im Willing to pay for excellence!! Excellence is what youll receive if you choose to have great tattoo work done !! Highly recommend Nathan Churchs work !!! Hes reasonably priced for what he offers!!

Definitely a great experience! It was clean and the staff was friendly! Jeremy was super helpful on helping me figure out where to put my tattoos and sizing them. He was quick and the prices were very fair! Definitely would recommend people to go as I will eventually make my way back there in a few months! Best tattoo parlor I’ve seen inside and out, first timers would love it here!

Absolutely fabulous service! Took me and a couple others as walk ins. Friendly, kind, and willingly to tattoo. Super glad we came to Bleeding Heart. They will have my business again.

Handled my wifes piercings well and went above and beyond to make sure she had the right post length in the weeks after.They care and theyre good at what they do.

Went in for my first tattoo and Chris Layman took care of me. Very professional, very good guy. Would highly recommend and keep going back to him. He does awesome work and he made my first experience a great one. Loved my time at bleeding heart.

They already have a well earned great reputation as one of the best shops within hundreds of miles, but I can personally attest to that now, having a tattoo (my 2nd ever) from Scott B. I couldnt be happier. The whole shop has a great and positive feel and vibe thanks firstly to the people. Everyone in the joint is sincerely passionate about what theyre doing and obviously stoked about doing it together and at Bleeding Heart. The shop itself is cool too...the look and decor...its a tattoo and piercings shop but exudes professionalism and no nonsense. It inspires confidence and is just plain a cool place to be. They have a slew of regulars and are always busy, so dont count on a walk in tattoo. Getting work done here is a treat so dont hesitate. Ill definitely be back and see you there!

Best tattoo parlor in the KC area. Excellent atmosphere and down to earth artists. Great experience going to Bleeding Heart, and I look forward to many more trips to finish my work. Just ask for Jeremy, and if hes booked, have another artist hook you up! Only quality work from this shop 💯

If you get a tattoo from here; ask for “ TommyTwoFingers” he is incredible! Not only incredibly personable, but very patient and a brilliant artist! I spent over 4 hours getting my tattoo and can tell you Bleeding Heart is the ONLY place I would have ever gone! Very professional establishment; I wish I could give 10/5 stars—amazing!

Im sad to say I was disappointed with my experience at Bleeding Heart. While some of the staff are polite, the majority seem to have a dismissive attitude towards customers and act as if theyre in a rush to push you off onto other staff--staff who are likely unavailable. Getting answers to simple questions is very difficult at Bleeding Heart. The person you need to talk to is probably unavailable and theyll tell you to go find that persons email address.They dont really seem to mind if you walk out the door as clueless as you came in. I imagine this is because they are solidly booked for appointments and can afford to lose potential customers. I would compare the attitudes of a lot of the staff to those of exhausted retail workers with a sprinkling of ego mixed in.When I was able to speak to an artist I felt that they were annoyed by me, or, just having to deal with yet another customer. The conversation felt almost like I had to convince the artist to take me on as a client. To that I have to question how many infinity symbols and Live, Laugh, Love tattoos theyd probably already done that day, considering I was just interested in doing business. It was an unusual dynamic.I do have something of a unique perspective on the tattoo business because Ive worked in a tattoo shop as a counter person, and my role there included booking appointments and answering questions for customers. My employer wouldve never allowed me to be so dismissive to customers and let so much money walk out the door. But this is maybe a negative indicator of Bleeding Hearts success: they make enough money that they dont really need your business.All that said, Im prepared to go out of my way to explore other tattoo shops in the area and hopefully find the right one for me. I wish Bleeding Heart well and Im sure theyll do fine without my business. I would personally not recommend this shop to first-timers or people who may feel intimidated by tattoo culture.

I was seen by Chris. It took lots of patient communication over two months, especially due to the pandemics affect on shop operation, but I was not disappointed. This image was drawn by Chris and it turned out beautiful. I was allowed in early and everything was very clean. Chris took his time and still moved quickly and the process took less than an hour. The tattoo was a reasonable price, determined after the tattoo was finished and only cash was accepted. I went in the evening and was the only one in the main part of the shop at the time getting a tattoo. Chris was very casual and held light conversation while he worked. This is my second tattoo at this shop and I liked the experience.

Honestly one of the best experiences Ive had at a tattoo shop in years! My significant other and I went to the bleeding heart to get our septum piercing redone, and Jared the piercer was wonderful with his degree of customer service and customer care! He went above and beyond in my opinion, even going so far as to check if our previous piercing were still open, and they were, saving us the price of the piercing itself. I am extremely impressed that he took the time to check when many other shops would have charged us for the piercing regardless. I would and will gladly make the drive all the way from independence just because of the care and service we received today. Thank you very much Jared! 10/10 would recommend to anyone in the metropolitan area!!

My friend recommended me to Bleeding Heart for piercings because they have the best jewelry selection. Although the jewelry is pricey, the quality product you get is definitely worth it. My friend wanted to go there for a new septum ring so I spontaneously decided to get my navel pierced for the first time (my birthday is in 2 days after all!) When we walked in we were immediately greeted and helped. They recognized my friend and excitedly welcomed her back and greeted her with a hug. They also greeted me with a welcoming smile and handshake. I could tell they are very knowledgeable with piercings because they always begin by thoroughly examining the anatomy of the area that the client would like pierced. They do this to carefully decide what type of jewelry is best for the client based on their anatomy to ensure the piercing heals best and is a success for the client. I do not remember the piercers name (I am bad with names) but he made me feel very comfortable during the whole piercing process. He was gentle and did a fantastic job on the piercing. This piercer normally works at a different shop but he sometimes does work at Bleeding Heart. The guys here were so kind that they decided to give me and my friend discounts since she is a good customer and I am her friend. They even gave me a bottle of wound wash for free since its almost my birthday! Ill definitely recommend this shop for any piercings because of excellent customer service and knowledgeable and skilled staff. I might have to return here for a tattoo because their work looks impressive too.... :)

I got my first tattoo here! I was a walk in, and wanted a simple memorial piece for my angel babies. Tommy did and absolutely amazing job and was so professional and patient! I could not have asked for a better experience. I keep looking at it and smiling!

Literally EVERYONE in here is great! I love it!! Brigitte hooked me up with my piercings and did such an amazing job , Cory suggested the best jewelry for me. Thank you guys!!!

First time tattoo with the wife. Was nicely greeted by a peircer out smoking who was a friendly guy, updated us on how their status was right away which was cool. Chris met us quickly and talked about getting us in. Could have gotten a better description for our draft but he actually was amazingly spot on. Fixed it with some tweaks and gave a great quick quality experience. With what seems an excellently done work! Definitely showed me he had some good skill and great at his craft. Place was nice and clean as Id hoped it would be. Id recommend it. Id give it the current 4.7 stars! Keep up the good work!

Every experience Ive had here has been top tier! Piercings and tattoos. Incredible service.Stopped in today to get a piercing removed before it tore. The staff were incredibly helpful and understanding! They are the best!

I saw Scott yesterday. He did a fantastic job on my tattoos. They look exactly liked I had hoped for. He listened to me and gave his insight too. He made me feel very comfortable and did a great job. If I decide to get any more he will be my go to guy.

Everyone is great, me and my wife have been there a handful of times and our experiences each time has been hands down the best. Everyone is friendly and accommodating and all the artists are very helpful with designs without being too pushy about art direction. Unless the world burns to the ground, Bleeding Heart will always be my first choice for tattoos.

Jared the piercer is the best in the whole KC area. Had a great selection of jewelry to choose from. He was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly! Will definitely return to him for all my piercing needs. Strongly recommend to everyone! 😊😊😊

My mom and I got tattoos from Nathan Church at bleeding heart, and we loved our experience! The shop is very clean and all of the staff members are welcoming and helpful. Nathan was very patient and knowledgeable and his work is great! I would highly recommend Nathan!

My mom has always wanted to have her ears pierced again to have her second holes 😁 She Was super nervous but Jared made her experience wonderful! I live in Florida, so knowing that she is in good hands, if any questions were to arise, puts my mind at ease. Thank you for taking care of my mom like she was family! Will defiantly recommend yaall to everyone!

Jared with Crystal Point Piercing was amazing! Its been a while since Ive had a piercing, but he showed and explained every little thing he was doing.I was so surprised that my daith piercing was painless. He has gentle hands and is extremely talented in what he does.

Great place! My husband and I had several sessions with Jeremy and will be back for more. What a fantastic artist! The relaxed but professional atmosphere at Bleeding Heart Tattoo makes customers feel comfortable and the work speaks for itself. Keep up the good work Mr. Angotti!

2nd piece Ive had done there. Great shop, all the artist are laid back, and easy to get along with.

Went in for my first tattoo and had a great experience there thanks to my artist Scott, very professional and makes you feel comfortable while working on your tattoo. Trusted in his expertise and my tattoo came out perfect, thank you Scott. Alyssa and I are looking forward to come to you again on our next tattoo date.

Me and my daughter had the best experience at Bleeding Heart Tatoo! The staff was the bomb and Lamya our tattoo artist was amazingly patient especially with this being my first tattoo!! I definitely recommend this location to anyone looking to get a new tattoo!

I love this place, the vibe is chill and relaxing in my opinion. But prices for tattoos can really cost you an arm and a leg. Quality of tattoos here by these amazing tattoos artists are incredible, making it worth their prices. Yes its expensive depending on what you get but my tattoos were worth it.

Jareds done three of my ear piercings - helix, conch, and an industrial. All three experiences were great. Hes been amazingly helpful with aftercare instructions and resizing. I had an emergency with a piercing near closing time a couple weeks ago (snagged the back of my helix on a screen door), and he stayed open to help me out. Always a friendly face at the shop, with an awesome selection of jewelry. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I’ve been tattooed here four times now, my previous artist moved out of KC and I just had my first piece by TJ. Seriously one of the best experiences I’ve had. Will absolutely be back to him for many more. Shop is super clean and the atmosphere is great.

I love bleed heart tattoo I have gotten many tattoos there by mike and he is always kind and does exactly what i want and does a beautiful job! Also I have bought some amazing jewelry and the piercer was super nice and helpful as well. Also yesterday when I was in the piercer had some really rude clients come in and he handled the situation in such a calm way I had to get on here and applause him for that! These women were the (your not going to please them no matter what type) and the piercer really handled the situation well while he was incredibley busy!

Me and my sister both got piercings today. the staff was friendly and patient with us even when choosing our stud/earrings. Amelia pierced us both and she was friendly as well as calm and explained her methods too. id come here for my next piercing no matter what ❤️.

I walked in here a couple months ago and asked if I could get a piercing. The pro Jared at crystal point body piercing was there happy to greet me! (Very big smile on his face) He was able to answer all my questions, explained everything thoroughly and made the whole experience of getting a needle shoved through my nose a wonderful one. He did my septum and its turned out perfectly! Its healed up now and is straight as can be! I couldnt of left with a question except what size did I get again? Execpt he had that covered sending me an email with a receipt that I can look back to or ask him any follow up questions! (Perfect for someone a town away!) I would recommend 100%! He takes walk ins too!

Ryan did my nose piecing! He was phenomenal and super kind too. They were clean and awesome! Absolutely love them! They use top jewelry, so be prepared to spend a bit. But worth every penny. Wouldnt go anywhere else

Usually love coming here. We have had a few tattoos done by Scott and would recommend him to anyone. The artist that did my daughter and Is tattoo just wasnt out favourite. She didnt really listen, wasnt very personable, but, the tattoo came out okay. I would definitely recommend but would suggest using Scott as your tattoo artist if possible

They will definitely work with you. Ben is a wonderful artist. Everyone there is super friendly. Their jewelry is outstanding in quality. Their decor is super great and entertaining. Its spacious and very comfortable. The paperwork for tattooing is also digital. Which is super neat and easier to deal with than paper. Their art book is also digital and gives it an extremely classy look. Like its definitely worth the price or drive.

Jared Silverman has done my nose piercing for the second time (first was removed due to work) and I cant say enough good things about him. He uses the highest quality jewelry and supplies, he has a sterilizer IN his office, is extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of piercing and will educate everyone he speaks to, and he refuses to do anything for you that could jeopardize your piercing / health or cause issues down the road. I brought him the jewelry I wanted to use and he explained to me why he wouldnt put the cheap, crappy jewelry in my nose that I brought. He has gorgeous jewelry in his cases and the customer service he provides is incredible. Ill be going to Jared for as long as he does piercings! :) Thanks Jared!

Lamya is AMAZING! Go to her if you want awesome animal / Neo-Traditional work! I gave her a concept and a backstory to the idea, she ran with it and exceeded my dreams of what it would look like. I will be using her for future work!

This place used to be great, did great work and had good affordable prices. But then the police got involved, they had unlicensed tattoo artists and recently had to move after having half of their staff removed. I am writing this review as a conserved citizen. Do not get your tattoo here, there is a big risk of infection with unlicensed tattoo artist. Bleeding heart thinks they can just move locations and all will be forgiven but do not be fooled they cut corners and are not a trustworthy company.

I had a walk-in tattoo done by Justin yesterday. He was awesome. I showed him exactly what i wanted and he 100% delivered on it. While he was doing the tattoo, he kept engaging me in conversation to keep my mind off the pain since i dont do so well with it and made the experience very pleasant.I highly recommend bleeding heart tattoo. I didnt talk to the other staff members but I over heard their conversations with other customers and they all are very professional and friendly.

I have 3 tats from Jason at Bleeding heart. I love them. Worth every penny and gorgeous 😍.

I love trying new piercings, and it has been hard for me to find a place I trust until now. I got my Tragus pierced here a few months back, and I will definitely be back for more. Jared is so knowledgeable and I instantly could tell a difference from other places I have been.

Stopped in and met Anya Arcane. I shared with her an idea of what I would like to be tattooed on me and she designed the most amazing Peony flower for me!! I was stunned.. the flower was so much more awesome that I could have imagined!! she is such a great artist I cant wait to see her again for another Peony!! Thank you Anya!!🏵

I can’t say enough about this place! I’ve been going here for years and have always received nothing but the best tattoos and experience! The quality of what you get is top notch and ALWAYS exceeds my expectations. I’ve referred several friends who are also now Bleeding Heart lifers. Thanks Jeremy Angotti for the dopest tattoos. You guys are amazing!

I used to love this shop when it was off 3rd street in Lee’s summit. I’ve gotten at least 3 tattoos from them. The new location the people they have now haven’t been friendly and I’ve been in this shop on three different occasions. The first time I went went for myself and I want to have my smiley piercing changed and the piercer had me lift my lip and all he said was “that’s ripped and it’ll fall out soon. The second time my mom wanted her nose ring changed and they said it was too soon which it wasn’t (I have 16 piercing so I know). The last and final time my friend and I went in to see about getting his sleeve finished. When we walked in no one greeted us and we stood there just kind of waiting to be acknowledged and nothing happened. So as we were walking out the piercer asked “do you guys need some help” and we said no and walked out. That was the last and final time for me. Each time after I went for myself has been for other people wanting to go there but my money must not be any good there.

Thank you Amelia for a great nose piercing! You did an awesome job of walking me through the entire process, taking great care to make sure everything was properly sterilized and answering all of my questions!! Super friendly and professional!! Thank you Amelia!! Highly recommend!!

Not good people at all. my boyfriend went in there today to use the restroom and they cussed him out and told him to leave and that the restroom was for “customers only”. totally disrespectful and rude. i understand if you only want customers using it but cussing him out was no where near necessary.

I wasn’t going to leave a review, but because I read one that stated BH’s may have a problem with Black people, I thought I should share my experience getting my very FIRST tattoo here.First of all, it was a Saturday and the place my girlfriend frequents was 8-10-deep-waiting with literally NO social distancing and people just kept going in! We searched for the next nearest spot and arrived at Bleeding Hearts. I was already nervous with it being my first tattoo. We call, they were hella polite and said there may be a short wait, but to come on over. We were greeted outside when we arrived and were checked in immediately on iPads. We were asked what we wanted , quoted the prices and were seen shortly afterwards. Justin drew the most beautiful Ankh and placed it perfectly on my wrist. I’m really pleased with my first tattoo experience, the cleanliness and the professionalism of the staff and I will be back!

The staff is amazing and very professional. Great work and very passionate about the work. So happy I found this gem in downtown Lee’s Summit!

My husband and I have both had tattoos done here and they turned out great! We did walk ins and received fast service and great pricing

I love this place! I got a huge koi piece done free hand by Brian a few years ago before leaving for the military. Now that I am back home I plan on having most my work done by this shop. That is how much of a impression they had on me. Let me say with proper care my tattoo looks as clean and beautiful as the day I got it done. I love it.

Trenton Matthews did a Punisher tattoo for my boyfriend while Anya Arcane did a beautiful job on a dragonfly tattoo for myself. Both tattoos look great, we couldnt be happier with how they have turned out!Jared Silverman also offered me some great advice on a piercing (from another place) that Ive been having issues with. Great place with awesome people.

I got my tongue pierced and a tattoo here and they are awesome. The piercer jared is very nice and Nathan did my tattoo that came out awesome! I get plenty of compliments on my tattoo. I recommend this shop to anyone !

Ben Thomas was referred to me by a close friend, Ill be back to see him soon!

This place is amazing! Its super clean, the staff are all super nice and strive to answer your questions to the best of their abilities. My tattooist was Lamia and she was amazing!

Fabulous customer service! Contentious of cost and figuring out exactly what we wanted. Jared even went the extra mile to see if our previous piercings were still open; saving us paperwork and money! 10/10 will be back.

Two months to get a tattoo appt... really. No thanks. Such a classy response to my review. I see that you have a new place since we had work done there. Your customer service is clearly lacking as you let your successes go to your big head. Let me tell you, bad customer service WILL get around and it WILL impact your business and your reputation. Good luck.

Jared Silverman is the piercer there, and he is extremely professional, has such a delicate touch, and genuinely cares about finding jewelry and placement of said jewelry that will fit your personality and body best; hes not just trying to make the sale. Ive had many pericings, and my experience with him was by far the best I have ever had. 10/10 would recommend him to anyone wanting any kind of piercing, or even just wanting new body jewelry.

Tommy did a great job! First tattoo with this shop and everyone made me feel comfortable and was nice!

Excellent customer service by the ladies I talked to. Went in for a piercing; whole process was perfect. Will definitely be coming back even for a tattoo but would absolutely recommend for anyone wanting a piercing.

Went there when they were in the old building next to the day care, and the guy that did my tattoo was rude, did god awful line work, and too thick of a needle on my flower. It’s only been a year and my tattoo that was done is blending together and is extremely blurry, then about two weeks ago, I went with a friend to bleeding heart because they were the only ones open on Sunday and he was really wanting a tattoo, what he got was not very big at all, smaller than a business card, and was charged an excessive amount of money for it. His tattoo now looks bad, and it’s only 2 weeks old. Smh. Wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. Go to Purgatory instead.

Friendly staff. Have been numerous times, and have always had a wonderful experience!

I love this place because the guys have always been so cool! My tattoo artist Scott is my favorite. I am so bummed bc on Sunday June 30th I called and was told over the phone that it would be fine to do a walk in with my daughter for her bday. Her and I wanted tiny tattoos for our bdays since they are 3 days apart. We walked in and was rudely greeted by the one dude that Ive never cared for. Hes got long curly hair and pulls it up in some crazy messy half up, half down do. He said, we close at 6. I told him we called and that we were given the go to come on in. It was not even 5. He was just standing around. I dont know if he had someone coming in or was just done for the day. Scott wasnt there. I dont mind being told no, but he was so rude and interrupted me on my next question that my daughter said Cmon mom lets leave, I dont want him touching me anyway. I agreed and we went to kc and got our tiny little 5 minute tattoos done from this awesome shop! I have a pic of rude guy bc last time I was there over a year ago he photo bombed a pic of my neices and I when my niece was getting her 1st tattoo before going into the Air Force. I will always remain loyal to Scott but never again will I let that dude embarrass me again. Not cool.

Jared was AMAZING! I was a little nervous but he talked me through my piercing & was super nice! I will DEFINITELY be a returning customer! I recommend 100%!!

I chose this place because of a recommendation from a friend! Not only is it clean and the jewelry selection beautiful but the staff was amazing and so personable. I got pierced by Ryan and the experience was quick and painless. Ill be piercing and purchasing from here in the future for sure.

Very Bad Service. The staff is very rude and unprofessional. Amilla lied to my daughter and I and said the smaller piercing change would be free. When I complained to the owner about the experience that occurred from Amelia he said teenagers don’t listen and they hear what they want to hear. I would not advise anyone to support this business. I have made better business bureau complaint. Business like this need to be shut down. Horrible service.

On Feb 5th my daughter and I went in for Helix piercing with Amelia. Amelia was very professional and was clear with the process and aftercare. I would highly recommend!

Crystal point piercing inside bleeding heart tattoo. I want to see that theyre amazing, patient, very knowledgeable very helpful more than willing to help. Jerry thank you for so much for your patience and your expertise.

Mr Vincent is cool as a fan, easy to get along with, and has a super fresh style!Only thing more solid than his work, his word.Thanks Mr. V!

My husband and I came into the shopChris did our couples tattoos he was absolutely awesome he really made my husband and I feel comfortable and welcome!!! Id let Chris do my work anytime!!! Ty Chris for the great experience!!!

I am two days past since mike did my black widow spider on my foot. It is absolutly amazing! He listened to what i wanted and made it look so realistic. I have two other tattoos and niether i am very happy with (done at different shops) so i really didnt know what to expect. Mike over dilivered for sure. Everyone that sees it says how realistic and 3D it looks. Top notch group of people that work there. I was there two and a half hours and felt right at home. Place was clean and well orginized. He was set up and ready to go the minute i got there. Because the tattoo was on top of my foot it was of course uncomfortable but if i asked for a short break he had no problem doing that. Wish i could give them 100 star rating.Travis

First off my body piercer name is Jared Silverman awesome guy i loved my experience i got my tragus pierced and also purchased a different ball for my tongue ring the piercing experience was quick and easy and not painful and very sanitized and jared knows exactly what hes doing i will definitely recommend him

Mr. Vincent was fast, detailed and overall a cool guy. Strongly recommend him. Also heard positive feedback about Scott and Nathan, from friends and family.

Same as Christopher Anderson below. They act like they are doing you a favor! Not happy with their attitudes... you are getting something that is going to be with you for the rest of your life, they need some customer service skills for sure!

Nathan is amazing! Not only as an artist, but he is very caring and easy to brainstorm with on your ideas. Looking forward to completing this and several more projects with him!

Jared with Crystal Point Piercing, located inside Bleeding Heart, is amazing. Knowledgeable and friendly. Did a great job on my micro dermals. Definitely recommend!

We came in late but the piercer was incredibly nice and amazing letting me and a sibling get a piercing. Would definitely come back and get a tattoo in the future! Great service and people!

If i could rate no stars, or if I could post a picture I would. I wouldnt ever recommend getting piercings here. He screwed it up, has to repierce it. Then I left, and it starting being really crooked. And then I had to sneeze, and my whole nose started bleeeding and my peircing came out. If I could post pictures I would but Google review wont let me. WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER BEEN TO GET A PIERCING. 80$ for what? An ER visit for my messed up nose? Thanks bleeding heart 😂😂😂

Jared was great got both my conch done love the way they look and he also was very Informative I will be coming back for more piercing and going to get tattoos there to GREAT JOB JARED

So far Ive had my septum and lobes done here, and this is the best place to go, hands down. I reccomend this place whenever the chance arises, and everyone is so helpful and they will fix you up right! Very knowledgeable, clean, and youll get the best jewelry here. 10/10 would reccomend 👍

Amazing tattoo artists, my tattoo turned out perfect. I love the vibe of this tattoo shop and that to me that is priceless to feel comfortable, all things considered. 10 out 10 would highly recommend.

Went in to get my nose ring replaced (ball popped out) and met Kaden! You know that feeling when the universe harmonizes? Yeah. That happened. Ive been stretching my ears over the course of 18 months and Im one step away from my target size, 0g. I decided off the cuff to have him do it; something took over and I asked him about it, only realizing after I asked that I actually asked. Ive heard nothing but horror stories about how 2 to 0 is the most painful, but something was just telling me to do it. The jewelry selection is no joke and Kaden was very helpful and patient. I settled on some sweet steel tunnels and the rest was smooth; hippy, vegan lotion/butter smooth. He got the first taper in with almost zero resistance. The second one smarted just a little but then also slid right in. So happy that I finished my stretching journey and got to meet some amazing people in the process. Go here. Just go.

The entrance wasnt kept squared away the ground in about a 3 in a half to 4 foot raidus around the front door is covered with cigarette butts. No accomodating seating space for potential customers that are waiting to be greated and or waiting for service. After all that the conversation is kinda fake its more like the people that work there are reading from a script rather then actully trying to enguage in genuine human interaction. Also me being a person that is very in tune with body mod piercing tattooing so on forth, I lean twords the rite of passage rather then the this is trendy and cute ill do this to be cool aspect of the process. So in that they seam to think just because you pay a large some of money for something, (witnessed a man talk a woman in to spending $275.00 on a earring piercing) that it retains more value then something thats cost less. Seeing how I am a tattoo artist I know this to be false. They also do piercing or rather place presious metals (gold, white&yellow) and rose gold plated pieces in fresh piercings rather then sergical steel which I feel is dangerious due to the durability of the metals gold and silver gold plated jewelry is very can be very porous. As apposed to surgical steel is smooth sanitary and not porous. My visit to this was on account of my younger sister she wanted to get her nose pierced. Im all for people working and making a living for themselves but this is rather rediculous. The above stated are facts of what I saw and heard. Everyone has an opinion I have only stated few based on how I think these rites of passage should be applyed when choosing to contribute to the body mod community.

Chris is absolutely amazing, I won’t go to any other tattoo artist ever again. Stellar work, accommodating, and as gentle as he can be ♥️ Could NOT be more impressed

These guys are always great when i come in. Ive gotten a tattoo and a piercing from here and could not be happier with the service and price. Shout out to Jarad for being open and honest and not just trying to get a sale.

Phillip recently did a forearm tattoo for me and needless to say it turned out amazing! Hes also a very nice guy. They will continue to have my business.

Got us right in. Artist Ben was amazing. Very very sanitary. Watched him clean his hands after taking a pic. I won’t go anywhere else from now on.

I went in, AFTER talkimg to the tattoo artist, explaining what i wanted on my hand. I was given a time to come in. I get there, hes with someone else and has a different artist come talk to me. He REFUSED to do my tatt on my hand, even tho i have my left hand tatted. Making excuses that what i wanted wouldnt fit. I wanted 3 small words. Theyd fit. I wasted my time coming in this place and will never be back. I am sticking with Jeremy at Dark Lotus.

Justin was great! He drew up our design and had two of us done with matching tattoos super fast and they are beautiful!

Made an appointment and took someone there to get a piercing and they were amazing! Super friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend.

Staff is very personable and professional. Mr vincent did my tattoo. I got exactly the tattoo I asked for and it turned out perfect! Already contemplating my next

If youre wanting a piercing Jareds the guy. Extremely professional, knowledgeable, and hygienic. He offers great pieces for the piercings as well.

Ive had work done by TJ and Nathan, and theyre both fantastic talented people. The environment is clean, and the artists are conscientious about sanitation. Highly recommend this spot.

I went to get a custom tatto very small and simple. I overpaid and got ripped off. I took very good care of tattoo but still is not filled in an all and all very poor quitly very nice and funny people though. First tattoo. Very disappointed

Got a piercing here from Jared and let me just say he was the best!! Cleanest and most friendliest place I’ve been. I’ll definately be back!!

These guys go out of their way to take care of you. Theyre work is incredibly and they have high standards when it comes to who they hire. Raymond is always my go to guy.

I’ve gotten two tattoos here from Jeremy and I’m very pleased with them, turned out great and exactly how I wanted them. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Friendly, professional, and fast. Love my new tattoo and am planning on a return visit.

Everyone was really friendly and nice. Justin did an awesome job on my tattoo. They also have a gorgeous jewelry collection.

Nathan the tattoo artist (did my olive branch) and Jarod the piercer (did my nose piercing) are great! I’m very satisfied with the end result ❤️

Excellent time got a piercing this and crystal point is amazing staff the atmosphere with the tattoo artists is great definitely my place to go for any tats or piercings

Amazing place to get tattoos and body piercing. Nathan Church started a forearm piece for me and I cant wait until its gets color.

Clean shop with skilled artists and a dedicated piercer. Everyone is very welcoming and professional. Great selection of quality jewelry too.

Sat with Nathan for a large forearm tattoo. Had a wonderful experience and absolutely love my new tattoo! Thanks, Nathan!

Thank you Jeremy for making my walk in experience professional and comfortable. I luv my nautical star memorial to my dad. See you next time!

Staff was knowledgeable and straight to the point, no pun intended. They do everything they can to make you comfortable and happy with what youve selected to have done.

Weve always gone to Mike Mudrow. Love his work. Guy does good, usually does sci-fi geeky nerdy stuff.

They have an excellent piercer as well as tattoo artists. There is no need to worry that you will come out with a mistake on your body.

Jason did my husbands Woodstock tattoo and Tommy did my Snoopy! Both did amazing!

Tj did a fantastic job on my tattoo, Im very happy with it! Everyone was super nice and friendly, Ill be back again Im sure!

They do amazing work!Great location and the staff is great to work with and they actually have a personality. You don’t get that very often.

Firendly environment. Mr Vincent is the real deal. Talented, fast and reasonably priced.

Super clean place and the two piercers were great throughout the whole experience!

Incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, and TALENTED staff making every step of the process a breeze.

Jared is the best, I had a retainer in my belly and it came out, he came back on to put my original jewelry back in.

Absolutely love the shop and all the artists are cool and make you feel like family

Nathan has been amazing to work with! Highly reccomend and enjoyed having as my artist!!!

The apex of their league, you wont find a better skilled, more professional, or more caring staff. They are amazing.

Love the tattoo that I got for my birthday! Vincent did an awesome job! Thank you!!!

Great artists. This tat of Jessica Rabbit was done in one session for $300. I recommend them.

Went in to make appointment but got taken care off right then. Love my tat. Ben knew exactly what I wanted.

Love this shop I get every tattoo done here they are very nice people and its very clean.

If your speaking with the gril that works here just leave. She is just a waste of time. Tells you one thing then turns around saying another. Straight lied through her teeth to me and my mother.

Got my side done aAnd it was my first tattoo but they took care of me and ben done an awsome job. Defiantly would go back in the future.

Great experience with Nathan. Recolor of a 25 year-old dragon looks awesome.

This is where I go for tattoos.. they have so many great artists, you cant go wrong. Plus, the space is inviting.

Great place..... Jarrod knows his piercings.... fabulous... I will definitely be back ❤️❤️❤️❤️
