New Addiction Tattoo and Body Piercing Melbourne

Have always had wonderful experiences here! Originally got my nostril pierced here a few years ago, got an adorable rose gold hoop for it from them. Yesterday I stopped in to get my nose ring out before surgery, they were happy to assist me and it took literally one minute. I came back today after surgery and had the piercer put the ring back in. Everyone is so friendly and helpful and accommodating, you should definitely come here for all piercings!

New Addiction is a fantastic studio to get work done. This studio is in a central location in Melbourne right off of 192 in a shopping center by the produce market. They have comfortable couches in the waiting area, updated equipment, and there’s no shortage of artwork to view. The studio is very clean and well lit. There is music playing but not loud at all. It’s a very calm and not overwhelming place. There is a restroom and lots of mirrors. I was able to do a walk in tattoo and Bliq nailed what I wanted! He did my sons tattoo by appointment and had some time to do mine after. He was very chill and made my sons first tattoo experience welcoming and low stress. If you’re thinking of getting tattoos or piercing definitely stop by here!

I have been to quite a few tattoo shops and this one is by far the best! The people who work there are crazy talented and all around amazing people! I couldnt have asked for better work and I will definitely be recommending them to everyone!

I got my nose pierced here, i love it so much!! The lady that pierced it was very nice, and same with the guy that helped me pick out a stud. Overall an amazing experience.

My son got his eyebrow pierced, he said it was painless :)

Had an amazing experience with Bliq. He of course did a beautiful job, and was also very kind, accommodating, welcoming, and easy to talk to. My partner met with another artist at the same time as I. They had great banter and it was an absolute joy to be in the shop with Bliq and Marc.

Such incredible artwork and cleanest lines I have ever gotten. Steven is definitely the guy to ask for if you want anything Black and Grey. Have followed him all over for his consistent work

We had mikey and he did an amazing job. the staff is very knowledgeable and they’re very safe with procedures and sterilization. i would go here every day for a piercing!!

What truly set New Addiction Tattoo and Piercings apart was the incredible tattoo artist, Bliq. Not only is he an immensely talented tattoo artist, but he also possesses an incredible personality that made the entire experience unforgettable. Bliq took the time to listen to my ideas, offering valuable insights and suggestions to ensure that the final design would exceed my expectations.Whats more, Bliq has an Instagram page @bliq86art that showcases some of his exceptional work. Browsing through his portfolio gave me a glimpse into his artistic journey and further solidified my confidence in his abilities. His online presence is a testament to his dedication and passion for his craft.In addition to his artistic prowess, Bliq fostered a friendly and welcoming environment. His easy-going nature and genuine interest in his clients made the entire process enjoyable. He took the time to engage in conversations, which made the tattooing experience feel like spending time with a friend rather than a mere transaction.Overall, my visit to New Addiction Tattoo and Piercing was an unforgettable experience. The combination of an artistically skilled tattoo artist, and Bliq genuine passion for the craft makes this place stand out from the rest.

We just left there... there were 4 of us.. 3 noise piercings one tragis all for my daughters 16th birthday. Randall did all of us... hes GREAT... SUPER FRIENDLY, professional, incredibly knowledgeable. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. I cant say enough good things!! If I ever get another Piercing Ill go to him.... I got a Daith Piercing from a girl there (cant remember her name.. was about 2 years ago) but she was also great. young girl at counter was really helpful and PATIENT , and I took FOREVER TO DECIDE WHAT JEWELERY I WANTED.

Brought my daughter here to get her nose pierced. I will definitely come back. Shop clean, staff personable. We had a great time. And for good measure I had them re-pierce my nose as well. Mikey was thorough during the consult and clear with my teenager about aftercare. Great choice!

New addiction Tattoo is my new addiction!!! I got my ears pierced last year and now just did a tattoo with Ally!!! They are welcoming to all your ideas. Definitely the place to go even if just starting out and have questions.

I have been coming to New Addiction since I moved down here in 2017. Mikey is always a pleasure to work with. They have a great selection of high end jewelry. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a new piercing and beautiful jewelry! 😍

Great place to go for a piercing. This was my first piercing ever (earlobes) and Mikey did a great job in explaining the procedure and after care process.

When in for a consult with Steve. His book has some impressive black ink work with beautiful shading. Appointment made for my work.The shop looked very clean, and had a wide offering for piercing jewellery. Looked like there were at least 5 separate tattoo artist stations.The lounge area furniture is definitely on its last leg, but still usable. Seems to be the least impressive part of the shop.Will update after the appointment.

Love it here for tattoos or piercings. Variety of jewelry to pick from. Different colors as well instead of the basic silver or gold. Best jewelry and to get tattoos. This has been my shop of choice for years. People can be trusted here. Also the rockledge location.

Great experience! They had a wide range of jewelry options. The team was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will definitely be back. Randal was definitely the man to see.

Ive had two tattoos and two piercings from here and I love them! I got my very first tattoo done here and then another a little later on, the artists who I worked with were both exceptionally friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. The lady that did my piercings was also awesome! Everyone followed all safety guidelines and did a great job explaining how to take care of my tattoos and peircings afterwards. They also gave me there cards so I could contact them with any questions or concerns. Over all I had a great experiences and will be going back for future appointments.

Ally was amazing! Got my first tattoo since I was 19. Highly recommend every artist at the Melbourne location. Deff give Ally a call. She was patient very thorough, and an amazing artist.

Bliq is a great artist. He is completing my tattoo at my pace. Hes flexible and sympathetic. The colors are amazing! Mikey took a look at my nipple rings and made sure they werent infected and helped me pick better jewelry for myself. He also recommended someone near my hometown that could help me if I had more questions. The shop was clean. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The music was good. Make sure you book in advance. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday afternoon.

So amazing. I was recommended this place by two people and im definitely NOT disappointed. I was in from out of state for a while so I decided to get a new tattoo because I grew up here. My tattoo was done by Steve. Amazing guy! he was super nice, super friendly and easy to talk to. He gave me exactly what i wanted, and im super happy with my tattoo. Im aware It was a super simple and basic tattoo but its exactly how I wanted. Also my friend said she gets all her piercings from randall and she loves him, they are all healing great. All the staff in here is so so amazing and friendly 10/10!

Tirza is a very experienced piercer. She always gives excellent advice. My piercings have all been almost painless and healed quickly.

Highly recommend. Got my nipples pierced (first time) here versus others nearby based on their good reviews and use of implant grade titanium. I have a metal allergy and given the issues people normally complained about with this type of piercing, wanted to have the best start possible. When i called for pricing start point and best time to walk in, they were extremely helpful. they have a nice selection of jewelry that are at least the titanium. I got purple rainbow (anodized?) bars.Mike, the piercer, was extremely professional and quick. Given the location of the piercing, it hurt but was over as soon as it started and didnt hurt afterwards (i do usually have higher pain tolerance). Outside of a little soreness for a few days, i have had no issues with them at all. i followed his advice to just leave them alone and rinse in the shower. Ill definitely be back for a couple more piercings.

My new addiction, from the moment I walked in, I had no reservations. The whole staff put me at ease. The shop is clean. They addressed my worries and concerns, they patiently answered all my questions. They included me in all my piercing decisions. I had to let go of my anxiety and worries, and let them lead, they truly know what they are doing. I will not go anywhere else.

Mikey and staff was AMAZING! I got my nose pierced and he was very knowledgeable and the process was explained to me every step of the way.

I just want to give a huge shout out to this place. I have had 5 sessions here in the last 2 weeks. Austin, Kensley and Trinity have all given me tattoos. Thats alphabetical order not order of whos the best lol. Its so nice to come to a place and not have to worry about who is going to work on you. I get work done on a whim and just show up. They all are AMAZING. They all have their own skills that make them unique and desirable as artists. Clean lines. CLEAN. Wonderful personalities, attention to detail, they take the time to get it 110% right. Im blown away by the pursuit of perfection these artists achieve. I will ONLY come here for tattoos from now on. Another thing that really surprised me are the prices. They are so affordable. Thats why I tip so good. They deserve it. I almost feel guity getting such great work done at such a low price.That was a big surprise and just makes me want to get more done before this hidden gem is discovered. Everything here is top notch. They have such a beautiful facilty here. I will ONLY get my work done here from now on. Even the bathroom was super clean and tidy. Thanks so much for always giving me amazing art on my skin and a smile on my face. See you soon. -Clayton Rigby

Mikey is so knowledgeable when it comes to piercings. I would highly recommend this place, I’ve gotten 8 piercings from him and all of them have been perfect!

Looked good when first done. Too bad tattoo didnt look complete when healed. Gaps n spots, artist hasnt contacted me back when I ask for a touch-up either! Marc is not returning msgs or phone calls! Not happy! GOING BACK TO AGAINST THE GRAIN, & have them fix it I guess. Cant say about any other artists, but I wont be returning if this is the grade of work they let go thru!!!!

My sister and I had a great experience here! This was my first time here but, my sister’s third or fourth. Firstly the young lady up front was the sweetest and very friendly. Along with being helpful. Our piercer was Randall. He was amazing. Very knowledgeable and great communicator. He eased my nerves and made my septum piercing experience a great one. It was quick and barely felt a thing. The shop itself is clean and had a good atmosphere. Highly recommend this place!!!

Everyone there was very friendly. They were very professional and it was a comfortable atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place.

Tirza is amazing! She walks you through every step of the process and is so sweet. You can tell she takes pride in what she does. 10/10 recommend!

Me and my boyfriend went to go get a tattoo on Sunday and his looked good when it was first done now looks terrible.

The only place we go to get piercings. Mikey was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He helped ease my mind during the whole process. Store is very clean and they have a large selection of jewelry. Cant wait to get more!

I had a lip piercing the guy who did my first did it twice and I have a scar Nathan whaaaaat! He did it simpler than the first hurt less and he was funny the fact he lined up my second lip hole perfect Neigh Neigh thank you

Had my nipples pierced here. Very professional, my body medication specialist had an intern who actually marked out the placement. Both of them were great. 18 months later they are healed and perfect. The initial healing took about two weeks, and I dont leave them out long enough to know if they are completely healed yet. Puerder did inform me it takes about a year or so for them to completely heal.

I got my first tattoo here 3 years ago and I knew when I wanted to get a certain piercing this was the only place I trusted. I drove an hour to get my nipples pierced and it was so worth it! The piercer was so professional and so knowledgeable , she’s honestly the best I wish I could remember her name but if you plan on getting a piercing or even a tattoo this place is amazing. They can be on the pricier side but it’s worth every penny, because you’re in good hands 100%!

Referred by another piercing place as they are a member of the Association of Piercing Professionals. Clean, friendly and professional.

I paid $ 260 for an ear piercing thru cartilage for the earing to fall apart !Was thinking about getting a Tatto from here but not now ! Very disappointed !

I got my first tattoo from here, and I could not have asked for a better experience. Marc did an incredible job and I will definitely be coming back.

Got a tattoo with my friends by bliq and gotta say I’m very happy with his work. Wasn’t heavy handed and was very skillful with his artwork on each and everyone’s designs. Definitely coming back again to get my next tattoo by him.

Such a great team! Mikey did a great job at piercing our daughter’s ear and making her feel at ease. Knowledgeable, skilled and funny! We’ll be back with our youngest when the time comes haha. Thank you!!

If you want anything pierced go to Tirza ! She is the sweetest and most patient pieced i have ever had and she totally takes all the anxiety out of the experience

Absolutely speechless with the magical atmosphere Bliq provided for my tattoo. I came in with a tattoo that desperately needed to be fixed on my hand and not only did Bliq transform my tattoo into the vision i had, he FREEHANDED beautiful vines and just absolutely created the most magnificent piece i could ever dream of having. Truly beyond grateful and through all of my experiences at other shops and with other artists i can finally say i found my artist and my shop. Nothing but peaceful vibes all around from everyone and Bliq calm aura and good vibes turned a tattoo into a memory that’s imprinted for life!❤️

Mike was great. Not sure if what they charged me was adequate. I won’t say how much it was. But I will say it was just ear piercing and she did buy “Gold earrings” . So I would like to ask others how much did you pay for that service? After I see the answers I will base my opinion. Thank you in advance.

I only get piercings, but it’s phenomenal!!!

Love this shop and Mikey is amazing. He pierced my septum and it was over in less than 3 minutes. It was absolutely the least painful piercing I’ve gotten (I’ve had 6) Definitely recommend coming here and I’ll be back the next time I’m in Florida.

I would highly recommend Mikey if youre looking at getting a piercing! He was very professional, kind, and personable. He was thorough when going over the aftercare and answered all my questions. You wont be disappointed coming here. The entire staff was amazing!

They did our girls ear piercings. They look great and are still clean, fabulous and not sore girls approved...I also got my tattooed touched up and its night and day. Adam did a fabulous job. Everyone there is amazing friendly, professional, and so helpful.I completely recommend them!!!And we drive from Orlando to go to them

I am very pleased with getting my piercing here. I’m from out of town and saw the reviews of New Addiction. The guy who did my piercing practiced great sterile technique and was very nice! Would highly recommend going here! I also loved all of the options they had for jewelry.

Huge shoutout to the guy who pierced my ear the other night i sat there and whined like a baby cause i was so scared after my previous bad experience and he stayed w me until they closed and was sooo nice and so chill. also did a great job piercing i completely forgot i even got a new one. i haven’t had any pain or irritation at all. i feel so bad about being there so late the other night but now i can’t wait to get my next piercing fr ❤️ coming back here next time for sure

The girl at the front was crazy busy the day i came she kept moving she kept smiling was efficient and friendly she helped me choose my jewelry 😊. The young lady doing my piercing was cute as a button most importantly professional, confident and efficient she calmed you without trying I swear this was the most painless procedure I have ever had done no pain at all she was great. If i ever get anything else done I will come there the tattoo artist I saw seemed friendly.

Ive gotten alot of replacement jewelry from here. Excellent quality. Brought my daughter to get her nose piercing and the piercer did an amazing job when my daughter jumped. We really appreciated the fast service and the quality of the service. Staff was very polite as well. Very informative and very helpful. We Will be going back for more piercings and jewelry!

Professional environment and super friendly people! The lady at the front desk was helpful and attentive despite the number of people in the lobby. I was seen quickly and all my questions were answered. Mikey was knowledgeable and patient! The room was super clean and organized...perfect for my OCD. I felt safe and well informed about my piercing every step of the way. Im looking forward to my next one!

Mikey was awesome! I got my septum and it was my first piercing ever, so I was super nervous, but he was amazing! He kept me calm and was super nice and funny! He did the piercing so quick that it was over before I realized it had started! Definitely go see him!

Chill cool/nice people, good piercings/tattoos 10/10

I walked in wanting a fine line red ink butterfly tattoo. The artist was so nice and accommodating, but when I got up and looked in the mirror i realized one side of the tattoo was darker than the other side. I made sure to do my research on fine line artists and I know I made a good decision Im just not sure if it was a bad day or whatever, but months later it has healed and one side is darker than the other. Im not sure if i even trust going back in for a touch up... but heres a picture of the tattoo and im really hoping someone from the establishment or anywhere else can help me fix this, because i love this tattoo, it just didnt come out right. Ive gotten piercings from here before so i know its a reputable place, this tattoo just really makes me want to get it removed :(

Very busy the day we went. Waited for instruments to be cleaned. Female piercer was friendly and knowledgeable. She gave clear instructions for care, cleaning, and recheck. Did not price check with other companies. We paid around $90 for the nose piercing and the simulated diamond stud. Very clean and professional.

I went in with my sister for her to get a tattoo for her birthday. I’m not one to write reviews so for me to do this says a lot. Adam was extremely rude from the moment we walked in. He acted as though he didn’t want to tattoo my sister and just left a sour taste in my mouth. He was impatient while my sister was on the phone with our mom. We left because we didn’t have time to deal with the horrible services .

I was referred to this studio for piercings and was definitely not disappointed.Mikey, the gentleman who did my piercings, helped me to re-open an industrial and put 4g jewelry back into my lobes, as well as a cartilage dermal punch.After much deliberation (on my end 🤦🏻‍♀️) with jewelry.. he threaded two spirals through my second and third earring holes (on both ears).His work (and work environment) was extremely sterile, LOL, even reminding me not to touch.Mikey was extremely polite and answered all of my questions, even explaining how andiozation works to change the color of the jewelry. 🖤🖤There were a few people that came in for piercings while I was there, and everything was run so efficiently. From the lovely young lady behind the counter with the jewelry, to the extremely polite and well knowledge Mikey!Would highly recommend (10/10) going here!!

I got my philtrum done and my girlfriend got her Monroe done in late April this year it was such a great experience! Mike took great care of us and we both healed very nicely! I just finally got my bar swapped out and I gotta say I was so nervous to go in there late and I was kind of broke but I lost my gem and super needed to replace it. The staff and Mr Mike both took such great care of me I dont care if kind of a drive for me this will be the only place I go. Its cleans its cozy. The artists are amazing and the whole place makes me leave with great experiences.

Welcoming environment, friendly staff and very professional! I adore these guys, the piercer was very gentle with my Helix piercing. She was kind and patient with me while i was picking my jewelry and even helped me decide! I appreciated the individual care and this was a great, refreshing experience from other shops Ive been to. I will for sure come again!!

Service was absolutely phenomenal! Mikey and Melanie answered all my questions and concerns during my visit. I would definitely recommend Mikey if you would like a piercing done. He made the process easy and painless :)

I got my septum pierced by Randall and he was so helpful with the process! He also made everything very easy and included good detailed aftercare instructions! I would recommend going for your next piercing!

Aaron, is AMAZING. Very detail, love his work. HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😊😊 I been seeing him for about 2.5 years already!!

Mikey did my nose piercing. He was very nice and professional, I have anxiety and one of the things I do is fire off about a hundred questions and he answered all of them and even made some jokes to help me calm down. The piercing is titanium and really high quality, worth the price in my opinion. They sanitized everything right in front of me and showed me a card that changed color to show it was sanitized properly. Definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone looking for piercings 😊

My sister and I both got our piercings done here and we couldnt have been happier! Tirza was so friendly and had a gentle hand. She answered all of our questions and greeted us as soon as we walked in, which we liked very much. We will definitely be back for our next piercings!

Got stood up twice my the tattoo artist with the excuse of they are out sick. As a person that works 10 hour shifts my time off is valuable. Both times nobody called me to let me know they werent coming in so I wasted my time driving there. Great place for piercing but I wont be going for tattoos (Went to Reef Side Tattoos in Wickham and got the tattoos done there the same day, check them out).

We went into today to have my daughters ear lobes pierced. The staff was wonderful. It may cost a little more but everything is super clean and the jewelry is the highest quality. No junk jewelry! My Mother and I also ended up buying earrings from there because we both have metal allergies and were so impressed with the quality of earrings and the piercers ( Mikey) knowledge and friendliness. Thank you Mikey and staff at New Addiction, your costumer service was impeccable. I highly recommend this shop.

Awesome staff! They really know what theyre doing and theyre all very chill. My tat was PERFECT. Exactly what I wanted, even though my description wasnt the best. They fit me in late on my birthday and had it done in 30 minutes. Would highly recommend and HAVE highly recommended to a few friends.

Amazing shop! I stop in quite often, both for new tattoos and piercings. My 3 favorite people there are Adam, my tattoo artist, and Mikey and Randall, the body piercers. Adam does amazing work! So far, 5 out of 9 of my tattoos are by him. If Id discovered New Addiction sooner, all of them would be by him. I even got my mother to get a tattoo. Shes 55 and has always said she would never get one. Adam made her feel comfortable and gave her little breaks as she needed them.Mikey and Randall are very knowledgeable in their profession. Theyre honest with what jewelry will work best for the piercing you want. Some people complain about the price of the jewelry, but you have to remember, youre getting quality jewelry.Overall, an amazing, clean, entertaining environment. Highly recommended!

Got a tattoo here and cant get touch up without paying. Not cool

Liz is an absolute doll! Came in missing a ball from my nipple piercing and wanted to upgrade my nose ring to real gold and they had exact what I needed. My other piercer is in Kissimmee but I will definitely come back here since it’s so close to home! Thank you so much again!

I had a great experience here. Service was quick & friendly. Very clean place. Friendly receptionist. Mikey helped with my dermal piercings . I had a top stuck on my dermal for years . He was able to get it unstuck and change out my jewelry within 5 minutes . I would definitely recommend him for all your piercing needs . Thanks new addiction! & Thanks Mikey !

Had an amazing experience. My artist, Bliq, created such an easygoing and peaceful environment. Can not recommend him enough. Found my artist for life!

I’ve gotten all of my tattoos here but I recently got a piercing. I’m a pain freak meaning I hate pain. The slightest pinch hurts , BUT Mikey just Pierced my nose it literally didn’t hurt my eye didn’t water or anything. The most painless process. He was professional and nice and quick !!!! I didn’t like the size of the ring but he changed it for me . I would get my nose pierced again with Mikey highly recommended and that’s coming from someone who has no other piercings than my ears !! Thank you again Mikey !!! Such a great experience

The people are friendly enough but I didnt come spend money here for pleasantries. The nostril piercings I received from the male piercer(not mikey) are noticeably uneven and now ill have to take them out, let them heal and repierce. It would have been nice if they offered a refund, free repierce or something(I wouldnt have accepted) but they did not, which would suggest to me that they dont take much pride in their work. Or at least the guy at the register doesnt.So If you insist on getting pierced here I would suggest giving the girl or Mikey a try.

Adam is the best. Hes done all my tattoos, and love them. I keep getting compliments on his work.

Justin is amazing. I have gone to him for a few of my tattoos now and he just blows me away every time. He is amazing at cover up work!! Clean lines, great colors and a seriously skilled, phenomenal artist!!! The shop is clean and has a comfortable, chill vibe to it! Highly recommend, hands down the best tattoo shop in town 😀

Very experienced staff! These guys really know what theyre doing! Very friendly atmosphere. My husband and I go here for all our tattoo and piercing needs. Excellent collection of jewelry to choose from too.

Just an amazing experience Would recommend Piercings and Tattoos from any of the staff everyone is super professional and does great work. I dont go anywhere else besides the Rockledge New Addiction Location.

I cannot say enough good things about this place! First off, when you come in it is a fun, clean environment and the staff are so helpful! They are playing great music too. I came in for a nose piercing and the piercer I had, Mikey, was amazing. He made sure to show me where the placement would be so if I wanted to switch it to a ring I could. And we moved it around to be perfect. Afterwards, I got an email with care instructions and what to expect the next couple of weeks. They are super responsive on Facebook and are open to answering any questions. This is the place to go to!

Super friendly and professional staff. I got my navel pierced (very poorly) at another studio and Tirza helped me pick out better jewelry for my anatomy and changed it out for me. Very impressed and happy and will return for more piercings!

Came in on a busy Friday night to get pierced, had a group in before me but Mikey kept letting me know he would be right with me. Was a great experience, everything was really clean and very professional. He helped me pick out some really nice jewellery and explained everything really well. He did a great job on the piercing and made it a really comfortable experience, would recommend him to anyone!

Ally was great very professional & friendly. Everybody in the place was friendly and interested in you and your tattoo.

Ally was able to squeeze us in last minute and did a beautiful job! The area was sanitary, the line work was sharp and precise, and she was super quick. She did an amazing job and has given me and my sister a forever memory!

I pulled out my L bend nose piercing in my sleep and it wouldnt go back in. I got wonderful jewelry here to replace both nostrils and a post for my tragus, the piercer was quick and I was only there for 5-10 minutes.

Went to get the other side of my nose pierced. I had the right side and my septum done already. They were prompt and answered all my questions and were patient while I took forever to pick out jewelry. Mikey did my piercing and he was very quick. He did mess with me because my nose was bleeding pretty bad after the piercing, which I haven’t experienced before so I was worried. But I think he could tell I had a sense of humor and it was all jokes lol. I got a laugh out of it. He told me it was fine. Also, apparently ibuprofen can cause you to bleed more. I broke my finger and have been taking tons of ibuprofen as suggested by my doctor for healing. I probably should have mentioned that beforehand haha. So if you are on any blood thinners, even ibuprofen, it might be worth mentioning to them. The piercing is symmetrical with the other side and looks great. They also had a great selection of jewelry. It was very quick, and yes it hurt, most piercings do, but somehow not as bad as my other side and my septum piercing (both I got done at a different place). So I appreciated that. I’ve gone to only one piercer for most of my piercings, he is a professional. But since I moved to Florida, I’ve been hesitant to go anywhere else. I’m really glad I came here as they did a great job and made me feel comfortable. A+ rating.

I was really nervous on getting a nose piercing and trying to find a place to go. A lot of my friends told me to go here and see Mikey. To our luck ( my mom got one too) he was working, which he normally only works weekends. He was professional, everything was clean and he made me feel very comfortable. After meeting him I wasn’t so nervous and he did an amazing job on both of our piercings. Barley even hurt! If anyone is ever hesitant on where to go, don’t be and pick Mikey at Against the Grain.

I’ve come here before(a long time ago) to get my piercing done, and I’ve come back to change the back(a little while ago). I just recently came back to get a new earring for my ear. Would definitely recommend, very quick and easy I am always shocked when they say ‘we are done’😁 great overall experience

Amazing place for any sort of piercings and tattoos! Went in for my nose and a few earrings, plan on going back to get more :) I forgot the wonderful lady that had done my nose for me but she was great, very informative w/healing tips and nice throughout the process. Its been about a few weeks since I have gotten it done and it is healing great!

Got my upper lobe and cartilage piercings done here and they healed very well. Was pricy but still because it was something for myself I don’t mind and I loved it in the end. Thank you again ❤️ definitely going back and I recommend Mikey

Just got my tattoo done by Ally, she does phenomenal work. The lines are so clean and she took the time to make it perfect without complaint. I will definitely be going back for my larger work. The people are easy to talk to and very nice. Will recommend to everyone!

I got my septum done by an amazing piercer named Randall, the price was a bit more than expected, however, it was definitely worth it! After having my ears pierced previously (first and second holes) then going straight to facial piercing, I was kind of nervous as it was a step up. However, Randall was cool-headed, reassuring, and the piercing process was smooth as silk. No pain, I didnt bleed, and it was over quickly. High quality jewelry used, charming ambiance, and a very experienced piercer! I would go back!

I got my first tattoo here by Aaron, an amazing watercolor crystal. Today i got a very cute simple sad clown by Ally. This place has so much talent from simple tattoos to big detailed tats. Everyone is really nice there. They give you exactly what you ask for (as long as its doable of course). I recommend getting tatted by the best here !!!

I went to purchase new jewelry. I also had a few questions. Tirza help me. She was super friendly, super helpful and she took the time to answer my questions. She also gave me her business card if I have more questions I might have. Now that is customer service. Will be returning for all my piercing needs to Tirza.

I have been very pleased with this shop. It appears to have been recently renovated and looks quite nice. More than that, the work they do is fantastic. My girlfriend and I came here for below-the-belt piercings and Randall really took care of us. This was my first piercing and probably her 400th but we left equally impressed. Both piercings were done free hand and are perfectly aligned. Randall also did a great job of following up and fitting me with new jewelry at no extra charge. We really couldnt be more pleased and I highly recommend New Addiction.

Thank you Mikey! Once again you helped me out with my daith piercings. I love them (!!) but they are difficult to change out. I sincerely appreciate your patience and gentle touch. Highly recommend Mikey for all your piercing needs!

Completely professional, amazing jewlery and piercing environment. I got my bellybutton pierced here and as a minor i was really nervous, but i was talked through, and made to feel really safe. And if you need any help you can just go back anytime. theyre super nice.

The lovely young lady at the front was fabulous and it only got better from there. Mikey pierced my nose and did amazing. He made me feel very comfortable and relaxed! Awesome studio I highly recommend them!

Mikey did an awesome job on my nose piercing. I had my nose pierced twice before and had issues with the jewelry and healing both times. I wasnt told how to properly care for the piercings previously. Mikey was extremely knowledgeable and listened to my concerns. He made sure I ended up with exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend him for piercings!!

Omg! I got my noes pierced here and the girl that did it she was very nice and walked me through the whole thing and it didnt hurt as bad as I thought! Recommend this place

Ally was great to work with. Very patient with my 100 questions. Loving my new tattoo.

I have head from friends nose piercings hurt so I was expecting pain and a lot of it when I got mine. However, Mikey made it so relaxing and somehow hardly hurt at all! Will be going here for all of my future piercings!

I was a walk in for a bellybutton piercing. Mikey was very nice and walked me through the whole process - including picking a jewelry shape right for my body type (most important so I look good!). Other people have complained about the cost but take it from me it’s worth it. I have allergies to most jewelry but what Mikey carries I can wear. It’s high quality and worth the money. I’ll go back for future piercings!

I came in to get my septum jewelry changed that Id bought from a different shop. The ring was much too small and quite painful. Unfortunately I didnt catch his name, but the gentleman who changed my piercing for me was lovely. He stayed conscious of my tender piercing and took his time while removing it to ensure I wouldnt experience any further discomfort. I was on a tight budget, and he still took his time to give me options for new jewelry that was in my price range instead of trying to push a bigger sale on me, which I very much appreciated.

We went in for nipple piercings.. The person did not get down to a eye level to draw the lines. After jabbing my wife, they came out crooked. My wife was offered another job attempt. My wife said no. They offered a discount for the botched work. Beware!! 7/31/22

Mikey did my Marilyn Monroe piercing. Hes great. Very gentle, knowledgeable, and sterile. Great choices for jewelry also

Every time Ive gone to New Addiction, it has been a pleasant experience. Theyre all very educated and passionate about their work and helpful to achieving whatever you need. The quality is great and the environment is clean as well as comfortable. In comparison to other shops Ive been to, New Addiction is my favorite.

Talented, great people! Calm atmosphere, friendly staff, and a perfect experience. Adam Kozak made me feel very comfortable ( this was my first tattoo ) while still maintaining a professional attitude! They really care about you here.

Soooo, I had a nose piercing a year ago and after traveling to New Orleans recently, I decided to change original ring to a hoop!!!! Well..... lets just say it didnt go well. After being home for 3 days it started feeling irritated.... irritated to the point that I needed it out! I went into one shop and after waiting for 8 minutes I decided to leave. Went out for dinner then called New Addiction 16 minutes before close. I was told if I arrived within 5 minutes they would look at my nose. Talk about, time, passion, compassion and understanding!!!! Best service I experienced in a long time I will be back!!!!!

Mikeys the best, hes got an amazing way of making you feel comfortable & only 1 thatll ever pierce me & my daughter!! Awesome selection of quality jewelry & if they dont have it, theyll get it. Rockledge location is beautiful & def worth checking out too❤️

Piercer was very helpful. Was able to walk right in and be helped. While there at least three people were in and out for jewlery. Looks to be a good trusted location amongst locals. Would highly recommend!

I’ve had Mikey help me with a nose piercing and a few other things. He is wonderful! Didn’t even feel it! Justin is amazing. He does beautiful work and I can’t wait to get my next tattoo from him. Don’t go anywhere else; this is the place 😁

I have 3 tattoos from New Addiction and they are all exactly what i wanted and more. I just got a tattoo by Mark of my daughters names and it came out so beautiful, better then i visioned it in my head. Everyone there is super funny and laid back. Great shop and great people👌👌👌

Been here once before and had a great experience. Came back because of the great experience for a consult for another tat. The guy acted like he wasnt very interested in what I wanted for a tat and didnt really want to do it. Wont ever waste time or money here again.

Went in and got my nose peirced and my sons nose pierced! Randall was great! There was no pain, he was fast and reassuring, he calmed my son down when he felt a lil anxious! We will be back in the future!

I had mikey he walked me through everything made me feel very comfortable for my first facial piercing. i would definitely recommend going for tattoos and piercings.

Had a great experience getting my nose pierced by Mike. He was very helpful and I learned a lot from him. I have recommended them to others and I will definitely be back to get more stuff done very soon.

The blonde girl behind the front desk was a little rude she could be a little more welcoming. However the piercer himself was very knowledgeable and makes you feel very comfortable. 5 out of 5 on my end for that; after all you’re there for the piercing.

I really enjoyed my experience here, I got my nose pierced here about a week ago for my 17th birthday and I felt really safe here. The piercer walked me through the whole process and made conversation with me. Overall great experience here!

It was okay. The line was kind of long. Waited almost 2hrs. I paid $200 for just a dermal piercing and a nose ring jewelry with a saline spray. I checked online and it shows that them type of piercings are only $60 and a nose jewel is only $20. I felt they jacked theyre prices up just because. But if they need it that bad. Have it. Lol. It was weird cause before I got the saline, she told me my price was $180 for just the piercing and nose ring jewelry. But she then told me the saline was $10. She saw $200 in my hand n told me my price was $199.99. I didnt argue, just gave it to her and walked out.

Everyone in the store was nice just very expensive. I went to get my belly button pierced and they wanted to charge me $131. I clearly said no thanks but my boyfriend got a tatto here by Aaron. He did a great job and did it at a reasonable price.

Mikey is an amazing piercer! He cares about the quality of what is going into your body and he makes sure you are informed about every aspect of your piercing. I would only recommend him for any piercing you need!

Ally Kat is the BEST tattoo artist I have EVER had !! I highly recommend her !! I will definitely be going back REAL soon!! Love you ALLY KAT !!! ❤️🐢

Professional staff in the front and back. Nice, clean, and knowledgeable. I have been tattooed and pierced all over the USA I would come back here again 💯 . Face dermal and 6ga conch on this visit.

Mikey removed some dermals from my chest done at a different shop. While a piercer takes their time to make sure the piercing is done correctly, Mikey took his time to minimize pain and scarring while removing my piercings. He did a fantastic job!

So I got my tragus pierced here and the girl didn’t put the right size bar in my ear so when my ear swelled up the whole piercing went in my ear so I had to go back for her to put the right bar in and then GET CHARGED for her mess up and so now I have a keloid in my ear bc of her so thanks! She had no knowledge at all!! Oh and it gets better when she was re doing my piercing she didn’t even sterilize the needle!!!! How disgusting I will never go back here

Ive gotten many piercings from Mikey. My first 3 were from someone else but once I went to New Addiction and saw Mikey, I could never see anyone else again. They are the best.

Im not the type to complain about that things but I feel that my situation was absolutely ridiculous. I got my septum pierced at New Addiction the day of my 18th birthday which was a few months ago, a girl pierced it and actually ended up piercing it extremely crooked. At first I thought it was cause my nose was swollen, but the jewelry was so tight in my nose because how crooked it was that I couldnt even move my upper lip much without discomfort. I went back to get it taken out and see what they can do, I had to come back in a month to get it repierced for free. They told me to schedule an appointment via email to get it done. I emailed them to get it done, and they never emailed me back. I finally got frustrated because I spent nearly $100 dollars on a piercing that was done horribly and Im not even getting good customer service after something that was their fault. They tried to say they never got my email though I sent it to the correct email that was on the business card. They were honestly very disrespectful and werent even apologetic for the inconvience they caused. Definitely would not recommend to anyone.Update: Mikey from New Addiction did reach out and try to make amends, it was much appreciated that he did so.

Everyone was super nice and friendly. When discussing ideas, they werent rude about it if it wouldnt work like most artists I have talked to. They explained why it couldnt be done and recommended many solutions. The pieces that I and my mother had done turned out amazing. I know I will be recommending New Addiction to all of my friends and will be returning myself. Thank you New Addiction!

Ally is amazing!!! Very professional and so talented! She took my idea and ran with it in the best direction!! So happy with my tattoo and will definitely be back and I have recommended my friends to go there too!

Ally was amazing!! She fit my sister and I in last minute and delivered the cleanest lines and Ive ever seen, she did each of our tattoos in about 10 minutes and they came out amazing!!!

Got my septum pierced here a while back. Not only did the piercing not turn out straight, it also remained painful for several weeks after the fact. I ended up having to take it out, but not before going to another shop where they said that the guy did it totally incorrectly. I now have a mass of scar tissue on the right side of my septum, which is pretty frustrating.

Went in with my girlfriend for her to get her second nostril and septum. Mikey was well educated and very skillful, we drove from Stuart and were not let down! Very well may be the best in all of Florida.

Staff was super nice and pretty efficient! I went in to get my nose pierced and I was pretty nervous but Terza really calmed my nerves and was so nice and professional! Fair prices too :) 10/10

Always amazing and professional service! Return customer for both tattoos and piercings. Highly recommended! Clean? Sterile amd friendly associates! We will be back!

I got my septum done a few weeks ago and just got my nose done yesterday and I love them, the piercers are super nice and make sure everythings clean/sanitized before they do anything, its the best place Ive gone too and Im definitely going to keep going there.

I get all my piercings here and all my jewelry as well. They are amazing when it comes to any piercing!!!! I wouldnt go anywhere else. ❤ The jewelry is one of a kind and its definitely worth every penny.

My daughters have been here 3 times between the two of them to get their nose pierced and my oldest to get her belly button piered. Always had a great experience!!!

Terrible service. Walked in and explained my sentimental tattoo that I wanted done and the kind of design I wanted, and it was smaller not too big. The guy that talked to me acted like me and my mother were the stupidest people on the planet and that this tattoo couldnt be done unless it was big, and my sisters literally have the same tattoo that I wanted the same size as theirs. Very rude attitude and acted like he wanted nothing to do with my tattoo because it was small. So I got this tattoo done somewhere else where the people were true artists and supported and helped me with whatever I wanted. I got the same tattoo that these people here couldnt do for me. Highly dont recommend going here unless ya want some huge tattoo done! They wont be able to do it otherwise, according to their own words.

AMAZING STAFF! I have multiple piercings and every one was done here. This is the only place I feel safe and comfortable getting pierced. Prices are fair and staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

Got my lip changed out with gold flat back that cost 70 bucks. Who knows if it is actually real gold. Had it done on a Saturday, was lost by Monday. I think it was a faulty piece of jewelry that now I can’t even prove was faulty... I went from not being able to get my lip ring out for 2 years to loosing it in 3 days. Gotta wait for my roomba to eat it up and sift thru the sand.Moral of the story: don’t spend 70 dollars on a lip ring without any gold authentication or guarantee. Buy a bundle online.As much as I want to support small businesses, it’s moments like the one I just had over the phone with who answered the phone that remind me that it’s always an SOL situation.

Thank you Ally Kat for the great tattoos today! My wife and I are very appreciative of the Alzheimer ribbon and running foot respectively you provided us today. Great shop, great staff, highly recommend them!

I was going to get a tattoo here because I heard it was great but the lady they assigned me to had no people skills. I asked for a consultation appointment and they dont have those according to her. Other shops have them. She seemed annoyed to be there. I dont think Im going back. I didnt like the vibe I was getting.

Love this place. The artists are great and give a fair price. Theyre very clean and take great care of their equipment. Ive had four pieces done at this location, and each visit has been a pleasant experience

I had the artist bliq I’m Visiting from California came to get a tattoo with the friends I’m visiting he made it very inviting and peaceful took his time and wasn’t heavy handed, amazing artist

Got my very first tattoo today. Highly Recommend Adam K. He was super friendly and talented. Extremely pleased with the work he did. Id definitely come back!

Gotten multiple tattoos here and a piercing. Everyone is always so nice and informative. Very nice atmosphere. Prices are extremely fair. Almost everyone I know comes here for their tattoos/piercings! Love this place ❤️

This place is wonderful! The staff are exceptional people! Marc did a tattoo for me that I get the pleasure of cherishing forever! Thank you marc for doing an exceptional job! I’ll definitely be coming back!

Even though it was a busy Saturday I was in and out quickly. The piercer was very professional and kind when coaching you through that moment of getting pierced. I would recommend. 👍

I have had several tattoos done here, and brought multiple family here to get piercings. Justin does amazing tattoo work, and Mikey is an awesome piercer. Would highly reccomend it.

Called to try to make an appointment my 84-year-old mother wanted to get her ears pierced again they said that was a walkin service went there shes in a walker sat there for 15 to 20 minutes then when I ask how much longer it was going to be another 15 Yes there were people there but Im sure the people would have let my 84-year-old mother go before them Guess seniors Dont matter to them feel sorry for their parents and grandparents

Got a tattoo there about five years ago and getting another tomorrow. Very professional and clean and talented. Highly recommend.

I recommend Mikey to everyone!!!!!!! I came n to get my monroe repierced and the lady I went to before n Alabama tried to shove a taper through and said I had to get redone because there was no hole. Well when I came here since on vacation and had money to get done I mentioned it was pierced 2 weeks ago but the ring got ripped through lip....he was like u dont need it repierced! He used something and put it right through. He is the only certified piercer within 100 miles from here. He is the top notch. And I will be back for more and to get dermals swapped out.Summer

Absolutely fantastic experience. I got a tat and my wife got a piercing. This is by far our new place. Mike is awesome and Justin does amazing tats.

The piercer was super kind and super to work with. He answered all my questions. He was very patient and very customer service friendly. Def give two thumbs up. And 5 stars across the board.

Mike put in an industrial piercing, and did an amazing jon. All the staff arw very friendly, the place is clean. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting a tattoo or piercing.

Amazing artists. Justin is above and beyond the best tattoo artist Ive ever had work on me. I would recommend him or any of the other artists to anyone even my mom!

I went to new addiction to get a piercing, I was very nervous at first but Mikey did my piercing and he did a great job! I would recommend him to anyone looking to get a piercing!! I will go to him for any of my future piercings I plan to get

I got my first Florida tattoo today. I believe it was Steve’s 2nd day Working for this company . He did a great job. I will be back for more. See you soon Steve.

I highly recommend this place for piercings! The famous Mike does an awesome job! Explained everything to me thoroughly and was super nice along with the rest of the employees.

Probably one of the best places in town for piercings. theyre very knowledgeable very friendly and are willing to work with you as far as the schedule goes. Their selection is excellent.

The staff is so helpful and Mikey is absolutely amazing. I had a ton of septum piercing issues and he took care of me :) THANK YOU! I was so paranoid 😋

Very helpful for deciding what piercing was best for me. Extremely nice people.

I just got my belly button pierced by tirza and she did an excellent job, very gentle, she walked me through the whole process and made me feel very comfortable. I wil definitely be back for more!

I got my daughters nose pierced here this morning and we couldnt be happier with the experience! Highly recommend this shop if youre in the market for this.

Experience was quick and easy. Piercer was great. But Outrageous jewelry prices. Cost us nearly 150 for a belly button piercing.

Great experience, theyre hilarious and the piercer is awesome. 10/10 would go again!

They have done almost all of my piercings and always go above and beyond when I need help. Highly recommend.

Aaron Smith not only is talented but has a great steady hand for lines! My to go guy. Heads up he’s booked three weeks ahead

Piercer with the beard was amazing! He was so quick and or double noise piercings didnt hurt at all due to his obvious experience. Thanks a million!

Ive had tattoos and body piercings at this place and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for amazing work and very professional staff. Huge thanks to Aaron on such great work on my tattoo.

Got my nose done here a year ago, never got infected and the lady was very professional and sweet. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a piercing.

Adam was great! Professional but very personable. It was certainly a great experience and Ill definitely come back for my next tattoo here!

Costumer service was trash. Not professional at all. talking about personal issue in front of other costumers making me feel very uncomfortable. randel was very rude and disrespectful. 0/0 you need more work on how to talk to people and when to not say the wrong things.

My daughter got her first tat done by Justin and it is beautiful!! The shop was clean and ppl friendly. Great experience and we will return.

Got my septum pierced by Tirza. She explained everything as she went and answered all of my questions with ease. It was a great experience.

Justin was really great! He helped with placement and design and made us laugh while giving us some pain! Planning our next tattoo already!

We have been there now for about 5 piercings and every time its clean, friendly and very professional.

Adam was awesome! He was completely booked but called us with a cancellation. He was patient, kind and caring. His artwork was fantastic!

Had my nose pierced and they were all great. Very accommodating and professional. Clean friendly atmosphere. 👍👍

They gave us plenty of time to decide what jewelry was right for us. No pressure to hurry. Piercing looks great and jewelry was top of the line. Thank you Mikey!

They are very friendly and absolutely amazing at what they do, I will not get piercings from anywhere else and Mikey is the best at it

Helped us get a piercing fixed that was done at a shop that closed down with out notice! Great service! Definitely recommend

Marc is a great tattoo artist. Had 2 pieces done by him including a cover up. Highly recommend him. Not sure about the other artists tho...

The guy laughed at me, for wanting a cowboy silhouette. He had no idea the reasoning. Then he proceeded to put a clip art design together on his ipad totally didnt get my vision.. Really said because this place was recommended to me :(

My friend had her nose pierced there. Everyone was professional just hated that the paperwork was never ending for a nose piercing you would have thought we were donating an organ.

I got my Felix doneIt was a little pricey but it was very professional and sanitary, they have wonderful customer survive and a great location. Im very satisfied.

Very professional. Mikey did an excellent job and is extremely knowledgeable. The piercing jewelry is very high quality, and prices are reasonable.

My granddaughter got her nose pierced & the gentleman was so professional...made her feel comfortable & the facility was VERY clean...

Been here twice with my niece, she was the one getting tattooed. The people are very nice & my niece loves her tattoos & plans to go back for more.

My first tattoo by Justin. Have no words to appreciate your work. My ugly scars got new shape. 100 stars for your incredible work

Never disappointed. I like small tattoos and they deliver exactly what I want

The place was amazing inside and out. Once you walk in theres no waiting, they see you and ask what your getting. Very very respectful people and highly recommend this place

Adam did an amazing job on 4 tattoos for 4 people!!! Recommend him to anyone looking to get a tattoo. Thanks again Adam!!!

The best place for tattoo I loved , very clean place, excellent service, excellent price, Aaron incredible artwork and cleanest lines

Doesn’t tip their delivery drivers. In a business where tipping is common, you’d think they know how it is for others. I won’t waste my time and money driving out there for them.

Tattoos from Marc and Aaron done 11 years ago still look good. The bandaid on my knee is a favorite. Owner seems like a wimp though..........ha ha

The guys that do the piercing and girls up front are so nice. Always there to help.Tattoo not there yet.
