Big Top Tat2

This is my GO-TO for ALL my piercings. It’s gotten to the point where, last time I visited I asked my piercer what HE suggested I get pierced. He asked me what type of job I had and I told him I work in Customer service/support. He suggested starting an ear project and I’m SO HAPPY he did! He pierced my tragus & 2nd holes (same day) talked me through the ENTIRE process, and there was very minimal pain. He was QUICK, and very confident which made me confident. He’s also done my double nostril a few months before (I attached a photo, I changed the jewelry myself) Whether you are a PRO at getting pierced or more on the timid side, I promise you will be in good hands with these guys! The shop is VERY clean and organized, parking is great (with easy access to the building for people of all ages and abilities) the staff is knowledgeable, courteous, and it’s obvious they ALL take pride in their art. I will never go anywhere else and I can’t wait for my next piercing! Thank you all so much for always providing myself and my family/ friends with an extraordinary experience!*They accept walk-ins*The accept Cash/Debit** I included a photo of the proper solution needed to properly and accurately clean your new piercings!!

Thank you Rachel for these cuties. Everyone I met at the shop today was friendly. Will definitely recommend!!

After 7 years of waiting to find someone to make my dream tattoo come to life, I was referred to brandes through a friend and after reviewing his portfolio, I set up an appointment. From the beginning he was patient, kind and professional trying to figure out what I wanted. Then…the day comes and it was everything I wanted! My vision was brought to life! Highly recommend Brandes!

Went here to get my Bellybutton pierced and have a tattoo done. The staff was amazing and the overall environment of the store was comfortable. Getting the piercing went completely smoothly and Rachel did an amazing tattoo on me. Definitely will be coming back here in the future.

My tattoo has shaky lines missing some of the outline on a couple beads . The tattoo just passes me off everytime I look at it. Especially since it signifies my time in the service and family. The owner did it . It was a couple years ago I just started to look for someone to fix it and saw there shop and had to post a review.

Brandis did an amazing job on my froends and Is matching best friend tattoos. He has a light hand and amazing artist.

Best place in Peoria to get a tattoo! Call ahead to book reservation. They do walk ins but to get a good artist, there is usually a a months wait time. But soooo worth it!

Brandis did my tattoo, it was my first one and he explained everything well and told me what to expect. He let me take breaks and seemed to always know when to give me a few seconds. It was great! I told him what I was wanting and he designed it perfectly!! It was also really well priced! Definitely recommend!!

Great atmosphere! Got matching tattoos with a friend last minute before I moved to another state and they were very accommodating. Prices were great. Very clean and professional!

Best artist around I have tons of work done by Johnmarc from big top everything is always on point with that shop

Johnmarc was awesome. He made my daughter feel comfortable and is very personable. Definitely recommend!

Love this place. I go to Brandes Albert for all my tattoos. He is an amazing artist. I also just got a piercing here as well and the guy who did it was great. Answered any questions I had. They make you feel at home.

My casket will be buried at big top tattoos. Brandes sees me at LEAST once a month. love his work and always look forward to coming back.

I won a giveaway off Facebook with a COMPLETELY FREE WHOLE DAY SESSION!! My arm was bare before this session. I was super nervous and wasn’t sure I could do the whole day. John Marc is an amazing artist!! He helped calm me and make this a great time. Even in the worst spots, he kept good conversation and helped me push through this whole session. Not to mention how beautiful his artwork is. He takes an idea and knows how to turn it exactly into what you wanted, but better than you could have ever imagined. Big Top is a very profession, clean, comfortable environment. As soon as you walk in the door you feel very welcomed. All the staff is super nice and has amazing talent. If you want to have a good time, while leaving with something more amazing then you could have ever wished for, Big Top is the place for you!

This place is awesome. Friendly staff, clean beyond imagination, almost a brand new machine for each use. Got mine done Friday 13th (was well worth the wait) sanitary from start to finish. Was my first tattoo but I will definitely be going back to Big Top Tat2. I did not catch the name of my artist but love the job and how attentive to detail he was

Hand down the best experience I ever had! I love my tattoo done by johnmarc, and will for sure be going back for many more! Everything was clean and well kept. I felt welcome and comfortable through out the whole process between talking about what I wanted to setting up the appointment to going and getting my tattoo! I would highly recommend going to Big Top Tat2!

Brandes is awesome. He has done 4 tattoos for me in the past month (3 new tattoos and 1 cover up) He is always so nice and very friendly when I come in to the shop. Always can count on quality work from him and the Big Top Tat2 crew. I recommend Brandes and all the artists at Big Top Tat2.

Called just after opening about nose piercings for myself and my sister for her birthday since there had been a mix up with another shop for our appointments the day before. Big Top squeezed us in and saved the day! Everyone was very friendly, helpful, and welcoming and this made for a very pleasant experience!

I always have an amazing experience at Big Top Tattoo. I have many tattoos from various artists, it is a sterile environment with wonderful staff and great atmosphere. I definitely recommend setting up an appointment as you will not be disappointed.

Came in with my mother (Im 19, shes 38) we were there to ask for a estimate on a couple tattoos. We arrived said hello didnt hear no answer even though we saw someone there. Waited for about 5 minutes and werent helped nor approached. For first time being in a local tattoo shop, it wasnt great. Not planning on going back.

Ive got piercings and Tattoos done by the amazing artist at big top and I have no regrets. They do an amazing job and they made me feel comfortable during the entire experience. I definitely plan on going back to get more incredible art by some one of a kind artist.

This was our first piercing experience other than basic lobe piercings, and it was incredible! Not only was our artist extremely helpful and friendly, he was super cautious & cleanly!! I got my daithe done, and my best friend got her belly. Mine was very painful, but my artist talked me through the entire process & helped out immensely!! 1000/10 would go back!!

Jon Marc and his staff has treated my wife and I with the upmost courtesy and respect. I have been to other shops but Big Top 2 is the one Ill go to to keep getting AWESOME work done.

I just got my nipples pierced 10/02/21 for the spooky season. And the guy who did them did an excellent job pretty much completely painless & he was very good at his job. 100% will be back.

Just got my fourth tattoo here. Brandes is really kind, professional, and overall it was a fair price/turned out beautifully. I will return in the future to get my ugly tattoo cleaned up by him for sure.

Amazing!!! Brandes touched up my owl tattoo and it looks absolutely amazing

Great people and phenomenal work!!

John Marc is a great artist with a great shop near Bradley. Check out some of his work on Facebook and instagram.

They got me same day they were very nice and professional!! I am absolutely in love with my new tattoo!!

My daughter got her septum pierced here. It was a great experience & we will return for all of her future piercings.
