Old guy working the front is extremely rude, my daughter went to get a piercing and started to walk out to get something out of the car and because the wait was long, the guy stopped her and accused her of “looking in one of their rooms and pulling curtains back” which she didn’t do, I’m sure they have cameras and can confirm that. Would not recommend this place to anyone. Wish I could do zero stars other people have had similar experiences
I was so excited to get my belly pierced for my 15 birthday we went on one of the days that they do the 15$ piercing as we got there we were rushed and I understand it’s bc it was the weekend and you guys had just opened and it was already packed so we didn’t say anything as my piercing healed we had realized that the person who did my piercing did it crooked I’m devastated bc now I will be living with a very noticeable crooked belly piercing for the rest of my life. This is not the only mistake my family has went through with this shop my brother had gotten some of his body piercing there as well and he has had the same problem I had. I had to make a power point for my father to even let me get this piercing and I did my research on the shop as well I saw good reviews so you understand my disappointed when they ruined the one thing I had wished for. The only person I would recommend this shop to is someone I hate.
I was hesitant at first to get my eyebrow pierced but Kalynne, my piercer, did an amazing job making me feel comfortable and was really confident in what she was doing. An all around good environment and an amazing staff! Definitely the BEST tattoo and piercing shop in the county. Shout out to Kalynne, Wooooo!!!
My 2 daughters husband and I all got pierced here and every single piercing got infected and weve had to remove them all. Not happy. Permanent huge scars on all of us. 3 of us got industrial and my other daughter got her nose and ears 2nd hole. Never coming here again. Super rushed not friendly and not very sanitary either.
Absolutely terrible! I had my bellybutton done a month ago and the lady didn’t mark anything or even give warning. It’s so crooked but figured she was avoiding my scar. I decided to give her another chance and go with my friend and got my nipples done. I’ve had them done in the past here and the piercer that did them did them perfect! This time however, was the worst experience ever. So rushed, did not make any marks, no warning she was about to do it…all while talking to some random person that walked in while the curtain was closed for us. My nipples were not done correctly. She placed the piercings too close to the tips and they were not even straight. I returned the next day because I knew they were not right and she proceeded to tell me that’s the proper way and that she could move them back a little bit but they do not belong at the base of my nipple. Which is absolutely incorrect! She also proceeded to tell me that it looks so close to the tip because mine are large…wow thanks for blaming my body for your mess up.I ended up visiting another place and asking their opinion and they said they most definitely were not placed right. I even asked a friend who used to do piercing and they also said they were not right.It used to be so different in there now it just feels like they don’t care about their customers and care more about making a profit.
I have a dermal piercing from York ink as of a few weeks ago. I wanted a clear dermal. They only had green and purple. I chose green. I actually like the green dermal. In 2020 they pierced my tongue 👅 🤪 my navel and my nipples. NO complaints. Very professional. Great place to get piercings. They pierce super fast. Its always a lot of people. Its also Cheaper on weekends. So far no complaints with my piercings. Especially due to the fact I have extremely sensitive skin. Ill insert pictures later
Me and my partner got our septums and I got my second lobe, quick and easy. They give u a little card with aftercare instructions. Their $15 pericings on the weekend is awesome!
I had an awesome experience at this place!!! Upon arrival, there were 2 lines. One line to fill out paperwork and another to wait to be called inside. Everyone was so nice and professional! The lines moved quickly and efficiently! My piercer was very quick and efficient, (I wish I wouldve gotten her name...) which I really appreciated because I was nervous! They have a $10 weekend piercing special, which is nice!!! Would DEFINITELY recommend!
They tattoo different prices for different people. Got a little name tattoo was charged 150 for it niece got 3 butterfly 🦋 on her neck big size colored and everything she only paid 100. Make it make sense.
You get what you pay for. 15 dollars for a crooked piercings with the wrong jewelry. I used to come here for my piercings, but my last two piercings have been botched, and the shop cared little. I do not suggest this place. The staff treat you like cattle, just in and out.My helix was done crooked, and the shop offered to redo it after 6 months, as I was pierced by a apprentice, which was her first time alone.I just got my tragus done Saturday. They used threaded hoseshoe jewelry, and after I requested for a Threadless flat back, they refused. I went to a AMAZING shop nearby and they changed the jewelry for me a day after I was pierced. One side was just a little crooked but a little close to my head, but the other side was done so poorly that the back of the flat jewelry was IN MY EAR CANAL. I had to have it removed.Do not bother calling them out for their awful quality. They will delete your comments, and tell you to come in and walk to someone. They will threaten to charge you for harassment too. But in the end, it isnt worth it because they will not change their ways.I will not return. Spend a little extra and get done by staff who care for you.
Just went here today and was absolutely impressed with them. They take Walk-ins when it comes to piercings and I was amazed with the pricing ($10 per piercing on Saturdays and Sundays so with all 4 piercings and the cleaner, I only ended up spending $50). I really liked the atmosphere and the professionalism they demonstrated. They recommended piercings that would suit me and it turned out amazing. I was nervous but they made the visit enjoyable and I am thankful for their help.100% would recommend and Im definitely going back for some tattoos 🖤
Kalynne did an amazing job on my piercings!!I couldn’t have been happier with them! I got my third lobe hole and cartilage pierced, She made me feel so comfortable and explained how to take care of them! The shop was so organized and clean everything was spotless and sterilized! If you’re looking for piercings head over to York Ink! They are amazing especially Kalynne!!!
I got my Daith and Tragus repierced here plus my monroe put back in and a extra piece of jewelry and it was $45 total. My piercer was amazing and friendly. I loved her piercing method which was quick and effective. Definitely coming back here whenever Ill be back in PA.
Got piercings done this weekend and was extremely disappointed. One the piercer isn’t friendly, two they don’t use clamps to help ensure it’s straight, but they did my belly button and took way too much skin and when they put the needle through they stabbed me and cut me open in another spot. Never going there again
I never give 5 stars because everyone can leave room for improvement. I have gotten 21 piercings from here and I love each one. Did I have to remove my 2 daiths and a lip piercing, and have them done again, yes but hey it doesnt mean they messed up. They all have been super nice and will explain things to us if we ask questions. Not only did I get pierced but my husband, my daughters and friends we tell.We are so well known that when we walk in we get always get greeted with a welcome back and what you getting pierced today. Then they talk to us for awhile, they even ask to see the piercings, and say see you in a little. Haha yes we come back again. But just remember getting pierced is putting an open wound on your body as soon as you do it can/may become infected. Its not always the piercers fault, and yes she has told us no she wont do somethings we asked because we dont have the right anatomy for the piercings. Love York Ink, will definitely keep returning!!!
I went in to get my belly button pierced and it was cheap, very nice jewelry, and the process was very quick and the lady doing my piercing did a good job. Its been maybe a week since I got my belly button pierced and its healing well. I got pierced at Grindhouse before and I definitely think this place did better.
I give it a one star because it was my first time going there a few days ago. I had snakebites before but they grew up for the second time so i wanted them redone and a nose piercing.I got in there and she did clean my nose BUT.. there was no warning at all before she stabbed me which really threw me off cuz i didn’t think she was even ready yet and she did it so fast i didn’t even have time to respond. Before I knew it, she had already pierced my nose and both sides of my lip before I even had a chance to breathe which can make someone pass out.. it was like she was in a race for no reason whatsoever. I found that to be a bit rude cuz even the toughest of people need a second to breathe in between piercings.Furthermore, she obviously pierced my lips with the wrong piercings as well because they are trying to close in on the inside of my lip. Wouldn’t surprise me cuz when I asked what piercings they had that I could purchase from the front, they literally showed me one handheld box to choose from, using the same small piercings for different locations which is odd to me.Everyone in the lobby was nice but next time i think ill spend the extra money to go somewhere else. Piercer courtesy means the most to the ones sitting in the chair getting stabbed.👌🏼
Eh. Sure their piercings are cheep but I wouldn’t say that it’s quality. It’s a little sketchy. I have gotten 9 piercings done here, and have had to take out my bellybutton piercing because it wasn’t done correctly, so I don’t recommend getting that there. I feel as though they are less concerned about ensuring the piercing is done well and will last, and are more concerned about turning a profit. I’m not too bothered but I do have a scar on my bellybutton now, just a heads up.
I’ve gotten multiple piercings from here before. i’ve never had an issue, until i went in on 12/17 for my tragus. the lady piercing me was extremely rude and didn’t even mark my ear so i could see where i was getting pierced. she pierced me so close to my face that the piercing looks more on my face rather than my ear. the photos show my ear now (super messed up and infected) and the other photo shows it when i first got it done. i asked her if there was any other jewelry she could pierce me with, such as a flat back stud, and she said no in a very rude tone. instead, i was left with this massive and uncomfortable curved ring. it was ridiculous and i am extremely disappointed in york ink. i’ve gone here for multiple piercings and have never had issues until her. now, my ear is so swollen that it is the size of a pea and partially on my face. i would not recommend!!!
Best ink work around. This is where u wanna go if you want good work done.
My go-to place for piercings. Take advantage of their weekend specials!
Ive had all of my (12) piercings done by Ally here at York Ink. And all of my tattoos were done here so far. The staff are all really friendly and understanding. Prices are reasonable and the entire shop is clean. What more can you ask for from your tattoo and piercing shop?The tattoo I got today was a celebration of the 3 year anniversary of the day my life did not end, and my artist, John, was amazing. I could not be happier with my tattoo or this shop. Highly recommend to anyone who will listen to me.
I love York ink tattoos and body piercings especially their weekend piercings. But this time I kinda wasnt pleased with them. I was getting a certain piercing and my husband wasnt allowed to come back with me, no big deal. So the piercer closed the curtain, but then to have another person walk in (the curtain was already closed) unwelcomed and not knowing who she was, just start talking about CPR Training. I just felt for the piercing I was getting done it shouldve just been me and the piercer. Especially if my husband couldnt come back. Other than that I always come here for the weekend piercings never once got an infection.BUT I WILL NEVER get a tattoo here again. No I never got an infection just had a mistake done on my tattoo and brought it to their attention and never heard anything about it from them.
Lousy customer service. They cant handle themselves. There are much better places to go with much better service
Piercers were rude and were rushing. My septum piercing was placed terribly. Nasty attitudes 0/10
Got this beautiful butterfly from Ben, don’t let his young age fool you his a tremendous Artist, his clean, excellent detailing
Had my other side of my nose done here, the girl who did it answered my question about if I could move it a bit closer forward as I want to put a ring in on that side… then boom put it in without markinG OR WARNING . no issues so far tho.BUT TODAY, let’s chat shall we? I went on to my tattoo appt, same girl no worries. I had a picture of what kind of font I wanted for the two names I wanted. They didn’t have the exact font but we (the guys in the front) narrowed it down to the closest font possible. They have different prices for diff font sizes, I wanted the $35 one which is the smallest they offer (not so small) I wanted something slightly smaller. I was told they can’t do that cause they can bleed together and it will get messed up … 🤔 yall tattoo or not ?Moving on.. I was told to go to a space and wait, SLICK came on over and showed me what was discussed up front. I declined the one name due to sizing issues and where I wanted it and then when it came to the other one I asked can it be placed to see if I even want it ? She said “no cause then I’ll have to charge you anyways even if you change your mind & you don’t wanna get it done” I was confused, “its just placement to make sure it’s in the right spot & if the font is no biggie” she goes “yea but I still have to open everything” like huh? Why? When it’s just placement. Moved forward cause I thought it’s just $35 whatever. She places it. IM LOOKING AT IT & In my head I go “there’s no way” I move closer to the mirror and say “umm it’s crooked and slanted a bit” she goes”no it’s not , that’s where it should be that’s the middle where your collar bone meets” I start to feel through… it’s not. She adds “I do dermals there all the time I would know” but with an annoyed tone. I look at her and say “I get that but I don’t like it, it looks crooked can we move it?” she goes “no cause it’s gonna look just like that” ATP I’m at disbelief. I LOOK AGAIN & ask the girls standing there waiting to get their piercings “is it me or does it look crooked? Like am I the problem?” In a joking tone. She calls really loud for Jacob? Cody? The tall guy with a lot of piercing who usually grabs peoples desired piercings and moneys, to come look for a second opinion. He comes in the space and says “what am I looking at ?” I say “is it me or is it crooked? “ he goes “it is” almost immediately. Her face?!? PISSED. And says “no it’s not , it’s in the middle where it should be I do piercings there all the time” he goes “well tattoos are diff, that’s slanted a bit idk” so he walks away and she was gonna attempt to erase and try again but the way she was wiping rough and with an attitude I told her never mind I don’t want it anymore & asked “it’s $35 anyways right since you opened everything?”she said yes. LIKE IM NOT ABOUT TO GET SOMETHING PERMANENTLY ON MY BODY BY SOMEONE WITH HORRIBLE PEOPLE SKILLS & COMBATIVE COMMUNICATION. I said what I said. It was my first time attempting to get a tattoo from there & it was a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Felt super rushed to just get it done with.. not pleasant.
Waited in line for a little bit but not too bad.The pricing was amazing at only 15 dollars on the weekends! Piercing was quick!! I recommend for a quick and cheap piercing!
Hands down best place to go get a piercing, shes fast, clean, and she even compliments you after she stabs you lol totally awesome. The shops instagram page is worth checking out too, incredible tattoos! Been there twice and have nothing but great things to say!!
Worst experience ever, mind you this was my very first tattoo I’ve ever gotten. DO NOT go to Dakota for tattoos. I told him I wanted a red tattoo & he gave me a black tattoo. When he finished I said to him it was the wrong color & he proceeded to make it seem like it was my fault that I didn’t notice he was using black ink on me, then told me black is better anyways because it’s less likely to fade & if I got red I would have to keep coming in for touch ups as if that was supposed to make me feel better. Never once did he offer a refund or even a discount for his mistake. I left very disappointed. DO NOT GO.
My wife went there to get a piercing it was good, nice people. Long line though I would consider anyone whos getting a piercing in the weekends go in very early
I’ve been to this shop several times and have gotten several tattoos here. I’ve never experienced anyone being rude to me or any other customer while I was there. The shop is definitely clean and so is the equipment that the artists and piercers use. It’s sad to see the gang mentality that is happening within the comments and reviews judging these artists based off of their looks alone. Tattoos and piercings are a commitment and require responsibility from the person getting it as well. Check out your stencil before you start and take care of your modifications afterward. Of course mistakes happen sometimes, we’re all human, but things can be fixed and life goes on. I would definitely recommend my artist here to anyone.
Very professional and easy in and out location to get piercings done.
Workers are kinda rude right off the bat. Ive got three piercings from them and so I took my cousin there for one and a worker yelled at us the second we walked in the door cause they didnt have space in here. We didnt know we werent supposed to go in because no one else was outside. We waiting outside and they didnt even come out to say when we could come in or anything. Very unprofessional.
Went to get a simple outline of a small heart and everything went great and the tattoo artist was very nice- i was told after a few months i could/ should come in for a retouch for free since it was so small. had trouble with scheduling and when they finally scheduled me, they did it for a day they were closed and didn’t notify me that they were closed. when i contacted them again asking to reschedule since it was closed, they completely ignored me and left me on read. overall horrible communication
I received 4 ear piercings here in total and I am in LOVE!!!! Their discount days are especially wonderful… it is quick, but very clean and professional. The staff is amazing! I have passed out twice (lol…. I’m very bad with pain) and the staff was incredible. They took amazing care of me and I can’t thank them enough. From a freak about having clean and safe piercings- I Absolutely recommend this place :)
Been here for the discounted piercings on the weekend. I got my tragus, belly, and bought my daughter to get her nose pierced. Everyone was professional and I have had no problems with my piercings.
It was my very first time going to York Ink Tattoos and Body Piercing today. They were very polite and very professional. The store was very clean and had very many selections of jewelry to purchase. My piecer Slick was amazing and very quick. Thank you for everything today. Looking forward to stopping back in very soon.
Got my septum pierced and couldnt be more happy. Service was hygienic, fast and informational. Shouldnt have any problems with your piercings if you follow their how to care rules🤗
I would give a 0 star rating if I could. This company is a joke! Giving people nasty infections, misspelling tattoos, blocking people who come forward, refusing to help with any problems! There’s no customer service, attitudes are a problem as well. They shut off their Facebook ratings because of how poor they were. No one should ever go here. They need to be SHUT DOWN. Black mold is present throughout the basement and building which is highly alarming considering they’re leaving open wounds on people with that in the air. The owners will probably block me after this review too! Oh well! Just trying to save someone else from becoming a VICTIM after going here!
I have gotten all of my 7 piercings done here. They NEVER disappoint I live two hours away & happily make the drive everytime. The experience and service is absolutely worth it I never have any issues. Highly recommended & will be back! Thank you guys again🖤🤟
Got my piercings here a year ago and just took my son to get his nose pierced best place ever. Theres is a line but it goes quick and weekends always have a deal. Never had any issues with my piercings and my son hasnt had any problems with his yet. Definitely be getting all my piercings here.
I stopped by on Wednesday, the sign on the door said they were open but no one was there. I was not going to make that mistake again so I called to make sure they were open and scheduled an appointment for 3:15 today. I arrived at 3:15 but the door was locked. A kid came to the door and said no one was available and to come back after 4. I went somewhere else.
I got four piercings in my ears.. they don’t explain anything to you for being a tattoo shop they’re very unprofessional.. I had to reach out to a another piercing shop to get answers because I reached out to York Inc. through Facebook messenger I asked them 2 simple question and they blocked me, I think it’s very unprofessional for them to have a business but yet they can’t answer their clients when the clients give them business and support their families. Very immature on their behalf.. but don’t worry I’m going to spread the word and everybody else is going to leave a bad review as well and I’ll never take my business there!! I’ll go to a real tattoo shop in Akron pa and Ephrata!! Mastle tattoos is a respectful shop and has helped me more than your Ink… it’s sad because everybody I know they got their ears pierced they’re all infected! But your king doesn’t take any responsibility time to call the Better Business Bureau and get this place shut down
I would not want anybody to go there i went for snake bites and they messed me it all up
The lady who did my piercing rushed through it within the minute I was in the chair, didn’t ask anything and just put the piercing in wayyyy to far up and the piercing looks bad. I was too I need to remove the piercing and wait 2 months and I would pay again to have it redone.I’m giving the benefit of the doubt that she does more piercings in a day than any normal piercer would but it wouldn’t hurt to take a few moments to do placement correctly and check in with the customer before just rushing and ruining something that will take money and months to be able to redo again.
Very friendly when you first walk in. Also they did amazing work on my tattoo behind my ear.
I had my medusa and belly button pierced here well over a year ago and forgot to leave my experience. My medusa came out okay, the piercer slightly missed the exit point (which was my scar of my former medusa piercing that they used as the exit point) but not to a point where it was off center. However, when the same piercer did my belly button in the same visit, they hit higher than the exit point they had dotted with sharpie, and I was left with a piercing unable to heal due to my skin being pinched together from the missed exit point. No matter how clean I had kept it, the swelling was unable to go down because of the skin being pinched. This was my first time having my belly button done, and I still have the scar to this day. How the piercer thought it was okay to leave the piercing in and not own up to their mistake was beyond me. The jewelry was low quality externally threaded as well, which I learned can damage your piercing. This was a great reminder to never go anywhere to get a piercing on a whim without doing research. I won’t be coming back here for any piercings, and certainly do not recommend.
Everyone here is so sweet, caring, and welcoming! clean, cheap, and none of my piercings have been infected. grateful that they raised their prices in the new year because they deserve it with all that goes into what they do. really feel taken care of here. you’re in and out quick, yet still being treated properly. props to you guys for being so positive and helpful :)
I’ve been here twice and gotten 5 piercings and it’s always a good experience! My first one I got the right nostril and septum and it was so nice because last time I got it pierced (at a shop in Hanover :| it will not be named) they went through my cartilage and it hurt so much and I was traumatized. But I asked about it and they were so nice and told me they would do it right if my anatomy was right for the piercing and they did! It healed easier than any other piercing I’ve had honestly. Then, during one of their $10 piercing weekends I got my left nostril and my third holes on both sides of my ear and so far they’re healing nicely! I would definitely recommend, it’s a nice environment and everyone is very friendly. I felt very comfortable getting pierced !!
Be prepared to stand outside in the heat!! We waited about 30 min outside and 30 inside. Super fast piercing! If you want your piercings to be marked to ensure that they are even or in a precise location, go somewhere else. Overall it was a cool experience. Just one piercing is a little crooked. But what do you expect when shes doing 200 + piercings a day.
I went on Saturday around 11:45a and there was a line outside the door for them to open. I was discouraged at first, BUT when we went inside. They were so efficient, friendly and reassuring! I highly recommend them for your next piercing. And they run specials for piercings on the weekend! I love my new piercing!
Worse place around. My lip piercings got infected from here. They gave my mom a regular sized tongue bar so it had no room for swelling so it never healed right and got infected. Please stay away from this place!!!
I heard what they did to this one customer over the past week. They said they arent blocking comments but when you see 5 comments and click on it there are no comments. Really shows what theyre doing. Im definitely picking another tattoo shop for now on. They dont deserve anybodys money.
I went here on a Saturday morning g for $10 piercings. We had to wait about an hour but it really wasnt bad at all. The staff was very friendly and created a very relaxing atmosphere for someone who is nervous about piercings like I was. A girl was there the same day I was and had almost passed out from the pain of getting multiple piercings in sensitive places. They were quick to help her and support her and made sure she was okay. There were 2 separate piercers, but the piercer I had was awesome and super quick. I would definitely go back here.
Just really upset honestly. Before even seeing the piercer I told the guy at the front that I was hesitant to get my septum because I had gotten it a second time and it was pierced incorrectly, way too low. I told him I wanted it higher, where the original hole was. When I got to the piercer, I told her again and really tired to explain to her that I didn’t want it to be low. I didn’t want to question her but I needed to make sure it was where I wanted it to be. Well I got in the car to get a closer look and it was not in the right spot. I should’ve showed photos for reference. I went back, with my girlfriend this time because ANXIETY makes the confrontation horrifying and I explained to them that I don’t like the placement and if they could take a closer look at where the original piercing was, they didn’t even bother before telling me that they could have it removed, didn’t say anything about piercing it again (which is what I wanted) nor did they offer a refund. It was just upsetting especially to go through that pain which I was more than okay to go through again as long as she had pierced it correctly. Whatever walked out disappointed AF the whole process seemed rushed and you don’t really get that one on one experience. If we pay for a service, we should get what we asked for, they may be “professionals” and their opinions are respected BUT customer satisfaction should always be main priority especially if the person has previously had a bad experience. Empathy should follow 🤷🏽♀️
The young lady who pierced my 2 daughters noses was absolutely professional and sweet! We went on a Saturday for their Discount piercing and it was such a long line! We waited over an hr but its well worth it! Everyone we spoke to that works there was very kind and helpful even with the insane amount of people in line! They are also very sterile and practice safe covid precautions
Me and my friends decided to get our first piercings during one of their weekend discount days. The line was pretty long but the only way you can prevent that is by coming in early. The staff were very friendly and informative about the process. Overall I would come here again or suggest others to get pierced at York Ink.
This place is amazing slick so cool does amazing work and clean 1000 percent recommend
I like them for piercings. I emailed them about a tattoo. I even attached the picture and said 2 possible places to put it. I got a reply asking what size and where. I answered then got another email asking me to add the picture of what I want and where..... I already gave that why are you asking again......🤷♀️
Went here on a Saturday for their $10 piercings to get a nose piercing. The system they use is very efficient, we didnt wait very long for the amount of people that were there. I was worried initially because $10 sounds sketchy but EVERYONE here is so professional and nice. I also have sensitive skin and the piercing has not bothered me one bit. If I ever need another piercing I know where I am going!
Got three helix piercings and had great experience. All the employees were very sweet and helpful. The piercer did all three piercings in about three minutes and seemed like she could do it in her sleep. Well worth the $30!!!
🔥🔥All I can say is WOW!! This place knows how to keep things organized in the most chaotic situations. 😁The amount of people on weekends for the $10 piercing is insane. Everyone was very helpful ,friendly and polite.They also make sure you understand and know how the aftercare process works. In my opinion I dont see how they make any money on these piercing. At 10$ that includes jewelry , I cant see them being able to profit anything. I will definitely be returning for future Tattoos. This place is very clean and welcoming. Make sure u have all the proper paper work needed to complete the check in process. They WILL NOT BUDGE ON THIS.. OVERALL I LOVE THIS PLACE CANT WAIT TO GET TATTOOS🔥
I went last week for their $10 piercing special and got my Medusa piercing. Barley hurt and done so well. I went back today for more $10 piercings and got my eyebrow and septum done and again didnt hurt one bit. The place is clean and super professional. They definitely know what theyre doing here and I highly recommend them.
I just went there for a tongue and nose piercing. I showed up at 7:52pm. Their website and sign on the door says 8pm. I tried to go inside and the door was locked. So I knocked. They all stood there laughing at me and my parent. They proceeded to ignore me and my party for the next 5 minutes until one of the employees came out with recycle and said.. sorry were closed. My mother had asked, well then why does your website and sign say 8? The employee said we closed early due to the fact that we havent had service in the last hour and a half and then you all rolled up right before closing. When we said then why didnt you put a sign up or anything. They ignored us and locked the door. I am giving 2 stars however because the last time they served us they were prompt and very polite. This time however, they were very rude. Shame on you for bad customer service. If you close early, put a sign up to make paying customers aware.
Took my daughter here to get her nose pierced. We had to show her birth certificate which is good because that means they have standards and are not going to just pierce whoever walks in there. The piercer made it as quick as possible. Very happy with them and would 100% go back.
I have done a review on here before but Ill do another one, went here today to get another $10 piercing for the weekend special and did my septum. This was the third time doing it because the first two was in NY and they were bad. Got Alex Slick and she did an amazing job! Would def go back to her again, everything went smooth and fast. Hardly any pain ☺️
I was recommended to go here by multiple friends. A few of my piercers I like told me to not go here because they are bad piercers, but I absolutely love this place! My fiancé got his septum done and I got my second cartilage piercing. It was fast, clean, and very professional. He didn’t feel his septum, and the piercer and I were talking about our funky hair color and how we dyed it while she pierced me. Great place, great workers, will come here more!
As soon as we walked in the store my friend was asked “are you getting anything done” and my friend said “no but-“ then the worker continued to say “then get out” my friend then finished his sentence and said he wanted to look at jewelry to buy but since he was told so rudely to just get out he decried not to. They also made my brother with a learning disability who can’t completely read or spell words to fill out a form and when i say they made him they did my mom started filling it out they made her have him do it. I have went here for 13 other piercings from 2019-2021 and have never ever been treated like this by their employees. There was only ONE person in the entire place giving excellent service and showing kindness. He was male with medium length, light brown hair. I even remember seeing him when I got one of my former piercings. Glad to know one nice person is there.
Slick was quick professional and I can say it only hurt a little 💜 It was my first time in York, it was easy to find. Everyone was welcoming and kind. They answered all my questions and provided us with appropriate jewelry and were very caring. Awesome service and customer care.
Theyve come quite a ways from where they were before. Im somewhat proud of them even. Never got a tattoo from them, but their piercings are decent enough. Only thing Id recommend is buying nice jewelry before you go, you get what you pay for when it comes to that aspect and its no different anywhere else. Ally or Allie apologies for the spelling was very quick and efficient with her methodology. I have not been pierced by any of the others yet. But yeah its pretty nice.
I have had multiple piercings done by them for their 10$ piercing deal on the weekends. I have never ran into any issue that wasn’t common with that kind of piercing. Only thing I don’t like about it is they give you the same sheet of aftercare instructions for any piercing you get. I don’t feel as though I should lower the rating since you can easily google it. They’re always friendly and very quick, they don’t wait around to do it. They use clean sterile needles and equipment. Everything is opened right in front of you. The overall shop is very clean and the staff is always friendly and kind whenever I had gone in for my next piercing.
Great experience. It took less than an hour from the time I joined the line outside to when I walked out of the door with my nose pierced. Staff was friendly, efficient and professional. Im very happy with the results.
Had gotten my nipples pierced here before and they were so bad! The girl rushed to do them and they were very crooked. Tried to make them work, but they refused to heal and kept bleeding so I had to take them out. Don’t go here, they don’t care what quality they put out in the world.
Beyond satisfied with my experience. Everyone there was so kind and professional and my Daith piercing came out amazing. I definitely recommend and I will be going back.
Terrible quality jewelry. 9/10 your piercing will reject.if you want a tattoo make sure you have the artist run thru spell check. they misspell words and blame their customers.Don’t forget the owner is a felon with many pending charges.
While the prices for piercings are nice it definitely shows in their quality. They don’t check to make sure you have the proper anatomy and will even pierce you in the wrong spot. Me and my friend went to get bully button piercings and they pierced my friend completely crooked and me way too low. Additionally the piercer was super rude and gave me an attitude whenever I attempted to ask her questions about the healing and aftercare process. She stated that she was in a rush as we were her last customer before her lunch break so she wanted to hurry up and get this over with. So if you want a poorly done piercing this is the place to go otherwise wouldn’t recommend it.
My daughter and I each got piercings done. Their system is very organized and we moved pretty quickly. The piercer was clean and professional. Great value!
I went there and got snake bites done. The staff is friendly and made me feel comfortable. The one guy with the half shaved head was in the room with me and the piercer because I have a tendency to pass out. He was making jokes and made me really comfortable, both of them made sure I was ok. The piercing was fast and pretty painless. The guy was super sweet and now me and him match lol.
Everything was actually fine, I got my nose and tongue pierced here. Nose went fine, a few months later I go to get another piercing. My tongue piercing ended up lopsided, not in the middle at all. I could tell from the second I got home. Thats all. Wont go there now.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. $10 body piercings on Saturday and Sunday. I was concerned about taking my daughter there simply because of the cheap price. As they say, cheap things are a lower quality than their expensive counterparts, but it wasnt a sketchy place like I had imagined! They used a surgical steel horseshoe for her septum, and even though the process was very quick, the piercer was experienced, explained the process, and gave us the aftercare instructions. So the fact that everything was done in the same way it would be at a location charging a much higher price, I was very impressed with the professional jewelry and service (I feel Im knowledgeable enough to judge after having my lips, septum, nostril, cheeks, labret, nipples, and belly button pierced at other shops) for only $10. During the week, piercings are only $20! They were also willing to pierce my daughter at 14. I needed to provide my ID, her birth certificate, and sign a parental consent form, which made me feel a lot better. Even though we had to go home for her birth certificate and go again the next day, I felt more secure with them requiring it. If theyd been willing to do it no questions asked, Id have known it was a sketchy place and left.
Two months later and my double helix hasn’t healed! they let me pick hoops as a option knowing it won’t heal correctly and on top of that both of the piercings are crooked. Never again.
I got my nose pierced here and it looks so good! but then i went back and got my belly button pierced, and it is so crooked. i know multiple people that have had the same issue with their belly piercing… i recommend getting anything BUT you stomach done here.
This place had been recommended to me for good, cheap piercings for years. Decided to get my cartilage pierced on a whim one day. The piercer didnt clean my ear, and pierced it with an earlobe earring... she put the back on as tight as possible so when it swelled it was very painful. Its now 6 months later and its still not healed well. However, the guy at the counter was very nice and helpful when I was picking out jewelry for my other piercings! Maybe I just had a bad piercer, but you get what you pay for I guess.
The people who work here are really friendly and kind! I was a little nervous and not quite sure exactly where I wanted one of the piercings in my ear. They all took the time to calm my fears, offer placing advice and cleaning advice. They are very professional here and know what they are doing. I have gotten 4 piercings from them so far, as all of them turned out great and without infection. Trust them! Plus, weekends are $10 piercings - what a great deal!!
Ive gotten six peiricngs at York ink. A nose piercing and five ear piercings. I am happy with all of them. The weekend peiricngs deals at York ink are the best prices you are going to find and they do a great job. The process was quick and the staff is very nice. Everything was very clean as well. I will definitely be going back.
Clean & Friendly. They have a nice process for piercings and I would definitely travel again for their services. I’ve read some of the bad reviews and I can’t understand how some of the problems occurred if you came prepared to get pierced or tatted. So in my opinion… ignore them (the bad reviews) 😂 this place is great and worth the travel (if you have to).
It was amazing. Alex Slick the piercing specialist and all of the workers there were very nice, polite, and professional. Everyone there was very informative and gentle knowing that I had never been pierced. Everything was sterile and clean. Im very happy and will definitely go back
Went in today for 2 piercings. Horizontal eyebrow and to get my tongue re-pierced after not having it for almost ten years. It was a little crowded when I got there but I was in and out in under half an hour. I only go there for my piercings. They did my septum two years ago and its perfect. Very clean and everything was quick and as painless as ever.
I took my 13 year old for her nose piercing. They were thorough with the paper work and going over how to take care of piercing. Just make sure to have cash.
Okay its been a year and 2 months now and Im finally going post one I went here with my friend for my 20th birthday to get my second ear piercing and here it is a year later STILL NOT HEALED I have to go and get it taken out elsewhere. Ive gotten piercings from here before an do had a problem with every single one of them my snakebites the ars were too small and got infected same with my Medusa piercing as well, I always took care of my piercings hence the reason I have my septum still done but I got that from a different place. youre ink is not the place to go they will mess your piercings up youre better off paying $40 somewhere else
My girl was nervous about her piercing , she was hyperventilating and told the girls but they were a little cold about the whole thing , told her to stay still cause if not the piercing wouldn’t come out right . Instead of assuring her that everything will be okay and relax or simply just make her feel comfortable would of made a big difference. It felt rushed and none caring no connection with customer She told me afterwards. The job was done and she’s happy with it but ladies work on your delivery, You have to treat all customers special.
(Hoop in my cartilage. 13 piercings total)Only piercing I have had legitimately 0 problems with. Quick, easy, in & out. Would definitely recommend!!
I cant dock a star for anything because I had an overall great experience. $10 piercings above the waist, it was a good deal.The staff was so chill and helped a lot with our questions and uncertainty. Music was great. Clean and quick. They helped us get even more pumped and it made the experience that much better.
My daughters and I had piercings done this morning and it couldn’t have been a better experience. Everyone was kind, patient, and helpful. We’re all thrilled!
The piercing was fine and of course it’s dirt cheap but none of the employees were wearing masks which is super dangerous. Especially when it comes to a nose piercing where neither of us have a mask on and we’re inches from each other’s faces. I probably should’ve left but the price was so good. Anyway I wouldn’t go here if you’re trying to be responsible with the pandemic and you’re unvaccinated and everything.
Super popular tattoo shop and a very efficiently operated business. Ive frequented here twice, and Im always greeted and welcomed. Work is clean. Parking is tricky and somewhat limited, which can sometimes be a problem if you go during peak hours or on the weekends.Clientele tends to run on the younger side of the spectrum of early twenties to mid 30s, since they run an awesome piercing promotion on the weekends. However, with that being said, I do not fit into the younger demographic, and I still felt welcomed.A great choice-- although I am a newer client, I do NOT get the feeling that this will be a fly by night operation and it will instead be a reliable choice well into the distant future.
My son got his nose and tongue pierced. The staff is very friendly and professional. Everything is very clean and freshly opened in front of you.
It was amazing, I was so nervous the lady made me feel so comfortable. Even the actual piercing was smooth. I was able to convince my friends to get something done. Michelle is amazing, and you seriously cant beat $10.00 with the piercing included.
I got my ears done here several years ago no problems. And I just got some flash done during the sale the other day. Great little shop
My fiancee and I were here on a Saturday to get her ear piercings. The place is really packed, but the line moves pretty quick, so no more than a 30 minute wait. Its cash only, but there is an ATM inside. The staff was super nice and cool, and answered all our questions and helped us understand the process. Everyrhing is clean and steralized. Our piercer was really cool too. $10 ear piercings are an unbeatable price. Limited lot parking.
The people were so friendly and talked to us like they knew us. I felt comfortable and it was a very clean work space. I recommend them to everybody I know. Me and my fiance are very happy with the service we get there and I dont doubt that you will too.
I brought my son here to get his ear pierced for his birthday. The were very friendly and efficient. My daughter has been here a few times for piercings. She wont go anywhere else. If you will be taking a child that is under 18, you will need a copy of their birth certificate to prove your guardianship.
This is a very fun and clean place. I got my nose pierced back when they were located near the M&T bank on Market st. They were very helpful when I was getting my first body piercing. They made sure you knew about the type of piercing u were getting and how big it is. As well as how to take care of it. I went on a sunday, which is one of the busiest days due to the $10 deals, but they did took their time which each of the customers.
Theyre not joking when they call Michelle the Piercing Ninja. She is very fast, and while she is no-nonsense and professional, she is very pleasant. They offered a nice variety of jewelry to use when I got my micro-dermal piercings there. The only part I didnt love was that they only accept cash, but most places do the same, so I should have been prepared for that. This is a very clean establishment with fair prices during the week, and sales on the weekends.
Actually my daughter and I went here for piercings. I had my nipple repierced and she had her tragus pierced. Our piercer did not have a lot of time to be social due to the sheer volume of clients wanting pierced. But we went in the front door, filled out the paperwork and told them what we wanted and both got pierced all within 15-20 min. My daughter is already telling me to be thinking of my next piercing so we can return. I was EXTREMELY please with the whole process and the fact that EVERYTHING was clean and new!!!!
Not too bad just the service could be a lil better but definitely a good place to go get Pierced ,havent had any issues on that side but Customer service could be better a lil rude but oh well
Everyone there is so pleasant and nice. The piercers do wonderful jobs. So far I have 5 piercings from them and have never had any issues with them. 10/10 recommend.
Wow, I was blown away by this place today! Took my 14 year old daughter to get her nose pierced. The building, the process to get in was all well designed and thought out. But what impressed me the most was the people. Friendly, helpful, genuine good people. I hope to be able to visit again soon!
Great piercing experience. So quick and professional I didnt evenhave a chance to be nervous
I love the place! It’s clean, it has really sweet people working. I just came in a few days ago to get my labret done and it was done nicely the piercer was so sweet. I just wish they pierced with hoops. The stud I got the ball keeps falling out and I don’t know what to do about it, I don’t want it to get infected. I genuinely love all my piercings and take care of them but my labret is making it hard to keep clean. Like I said the ball keeps falling out. Plus it gets stuck in my teeth and gums so it hurts a bit, but if I had a hoop I think it would be easier the manage. I recommend maybe piercing with hoops for it.
I got a piercing there just today and normally my body reacts fine to piercings, but in this particular case I almost passed out. the woman who did my piercing gave me water and something to eat and sat me down and was more supportive and caring for my well-being than I could have asked for. everyone there was so polite and friendly and talked to me like Ive been there friend forever. she also walked me out to the car to make sure I got there alright. I wish I could give this place higher than 5 stars. I dont care what anyone says, if you want a piercing get it here for sure.
Kimmy was absolutely amazing!!! My tattoo was perfect. The lines were impeccable!! I am scheduling all my future appointments with her!! My daughter also got her first tattoo today with john. It was exactly what she wanted. She almost passed out when it was all finished and the staff all came running to tend to her and make sure she was ok. I couldnt recommend this place more!!! They were all amazing!!! Thanks guys!!
Absolutely love this place!! DIL & I went in for piercings, 7 total. They were professional. Fast. And courteous!! Very busy place on the weekends. Will definitely go back for more! Highly recommend!!
I’ve came to this shop many times for years and used to love it and always recommended EVERYONE here for piercings and today i came and they made me so uncomfortable i didnt even get a piercing done anymore they made me go outside because i smelled a bit like my medical vape and even came outside and sprayed me INFRONT OF PEOPLE before actually letting me back inside with my sister. i would never come back here again that was humiliating over the fact i have my medical card and offered to show it to them and they ignored it.
I got a Septum piercing two weeks ago. It was not painful at all. The piercer knows what she is doing. After the first day of my piercing and the swelling went away, I didn’t feel the piercing at all. Very professional. Clean and sterile environment. If you want to get a piercing... I do recommend this shop.
York Ink has terrible Customer Service and does not take responsibility for their mistakes.Their artist do sloppy work and don’t know how to spell. They spelled a tattoo with the word “exceppt”, and are refusing to make it right and blaming it on a “font issue”.
Long story: lowest prices around, but its for a reason! A lot of the jewelry they use has a butterfly back, instead of a barbell. The piercer was very rude, and I felt like she didnt listen to me with regards to placement. on the $10 weekends they just want to get everyone in and out. They dont care about having a happy customer.I had four piercings planned, but the piercer refused to do the two Helix piercings. A lot of people get their Helix piercings so that the stud goes directly back through the crease of their ear but because of my ear shape and the depth of my ear crease, I like mine to have a little more space so I like my Helix piercings angled toward the flat of my ear. I have two other Helix piercings angled this way in my other ear. They healed wonderfully, and I like that you cant see the ugly back of the earring because its behind my ear. I think it would look tacky to have a bunch of earring backs sticking out along the outside ridge of my ear. The piercer absolutely refused, and she was very rude about it.I also had my R conch pierced. She looked at the placement of my L conch piercing and said in a pitying voice, oh dear, what did they do to you? I dont like it. Personally I LOVE the placement of my conch piercing. Its toward the outer edge of the conch and i wear a hoop in it so it appears a nice snug fit. So had drawn a dot where I wanted the conch pierced and also a line along my ear so that she could see the angle that I wanted the piercing to go through to the back of my ear, so that she could see how I want a hoop to hold in relation to my other piercings. She did not follow the line, so the hoop swings up in back instead of straight through. I took the piercing out, and Im going to let it heal and get it redone elsewhere.She also did an upper lobe piercing for me. I had come to the shop having drawn dots myself, since I am particular about placement. She wiped the dot off to clean it, which was fine, and then redrew it. But the dot she drew wasnt in the same spot as it was before. She erased it and re drew it several times at my request and she seemed, again, very annoyed and rude. Like she felt like she didnt have time for it. In the end this one was peirced exactly where I wanted it :-)
Went here for the $10 piercings on a Saturday. There was a line but the wait was not bad and when you get inside the process is pretty fast. Clean place. Recommend if you want to get something done.
I love everything about this place, specially the weekend special prices for piercings and tattoos. Also, I got tattooed with Kimmy on Saturday and I highly recommend her for names or word tattoos (I loved the fact that shes a perfectionist!). I havent got tattooed with anyone else there but judging by Kimmys work they have to be awesome too!
Tell your customers to stop parking in front of peoples homes in the neighborhood. You cant even get up down the streets because they park like garbage. We have width issues as it is and when you have these events the neighborhood is a complete mess with vehicles blocking eachother in. We have to park blocks away from our homes and carry groceries to our houses.
I went here to get my nose pierced because they do the $10 piercing on Saturday and Sunday... it is worth going somewhere else and paying full price!They don’t do piercings right at all, they put the needle through then take it out then put the jewelry in2 days after being home with the new piercing I realized that the outside was sinking into the piercing hole making it very very soreSo I went to a different tattoo and piercing shop thinking this ring wasn’t for me I needed a hoop or something and I was told that whoever pierced it didn’t adjust the nose ring right.They had to take the nose ring out adjust it and put it back in... talk about painful!I wouldn’t recommend going here to my worse enemyI never gotten a tattoo here but I was looking at the books and most of there work is shaky then they wanna charge $100-$150 an hourA tattoo and piercing place is suppose to be clean and sanitized... they had carpetAnd based off of the the response they put they obviously lieMy significant other was sitting there watching it get doneDO NOT GO! Your better off paying full price to have it done right
This shop came recommended for piercings to me. I wanted snake bites so bad. I fill out the paper. The woman pulled out small DERMAL bars. I asked if we could do large horseshoe rings because my lip swells badly. She said no.Fast forward, she hands me the jewelry. I go to stand where I was told. Well i asked the one girl to watch her prep my stuff. Was told no because its a privacy issue. There was no one else in the room. The girl who pierced my lip didnt change her glove after leaving the room to go help someone.I let her pierce me. Two days later the inside of my lip is so black and blue and swollen that i drove 2 hours to go see my regular artist/piercer. As soon as i walked in he said no they need to be changed. You never use a dermal bar.Yes, I seen plenty of red flags but these professionals need to listen to their customers concerns. I will say they were friendly but they really make you feel rushed.
Was there a few days ago and the one lady was very disrespectful when i asked her to give me a minute to calm my nerves because i felt as if i was going to pass out. She had a very poor attitude after i said i needed that one minute and proceeded to say i dont have all day, i have a whole line of people waiting i then said yeah and ive been here waiting for 45 minutes already. She then said and ive been here since 11 am get over it. Either get it done or leave and dont get anything at all. Very unprofessional and disrespectful. And ive gotten every single one of my piercings here and have never been treated this way. The other ladies were always very respectful of someone panicking or feeling like passing out.
The Peircer was amazing. Im 14 years old and I was getting my ears pierced for the first time ever. I admitted that I would likely cry and Sh was very sweet and gave me a few minutes before doing the second and Made sure I was okay while she peirced my mom for her migraines. Even though my mom had originally messed up the place the Peircer double checked what she wanted and gave her the one she intended to get. The quality was wonderful. I plan on going back for a nose piercing when I turn 18
My friend and I decided to get piercings done together during the $10 piercing event. I got my tongue pierced here on one of the $10 piercing days. It felt organized, but once in the building I was separated from the person initially came in with. The piercer had me sit down, pierced my tongue, and that was it, literally. Didnt have me clean my mouth out beforehand and/or afterwards, wasnt personable at all.
I got my second piercing on both ears and my helix cartilage on my left ear. The staff was helpful and made me comfortable. It was a quick process for me. Very cleaned and sterile store and equipment.Would go back and reccomend to others.
Kimmie did an awesome job on my tattoo. All the staff we interacted with were great. I drove over an hour to get there and it was WELL worth the travel. When i get another tattoo, i will definitely be coming back to York Ink
Best place to get piercings...$15 on Sat n Sun!!! The gal that did our piercings was quick n no pain...Perfect!
Not impressed , horrible experience and services was poor. The manager was also rude. I wouldn’t recommend
I have gotten my nipples pierced and a tattoo here. Both experiences were fabulous! Staff was super friendly and efficient. The lady who did my nipples did not mark them not used a clamp (which im ok with) however they turned out perfect. Its a little unconventional, but it works 😌As long as I live in York, this will be my place for all tattoos and piercings.
Worse service ever rude disrespectful will never go back again treated customers super bad tried to educate me on piercing when I know I have several will go pay more at another spot to have it done right
The girl who did my piercing was very nice and she did it well. My concerns about this shop is that since its extremely cheap to get a piercing on sat and Sunday, a lot of people come in and theres usually a long line. Consequently, I dont think the piercers have enough time to throughly educate the client about how the aftercare should go. I dont even recall them having a paper with info on proper aftercare. With cleanliness, they are clean for the most part the shop just looks unpleasing, dusty, and old. But thats just my opinion because I like going to a place of a service that just looks aesthetically pleasing. I went there and got my medusa done and it hurt, Im not gonna lie but it wasnt too bad. Idk why they never put in a longer bar to begin with to accommodate swelling. Another thing the piercer never told me about. All in all, its a cute place to go to if you really want a piercing but dont wanna spend the money. Imma just say you get what you pay for :)
Even though the line was horrendously long. They moved everyone pretty quickly in a professional aspect. Very kind people. Definitely recommend going for their $10 piercings on the weekends.
I just got a tattoo done today 2-21-21 by Kimmy. Let me just tell you this girl is nothing short then amazing and what a wonderful job she did. I just found my new tattoo artist. I love her work and will be going back again very soon. You want top quality work done go see Kimmy.
Got my navel pierced on 10-23-16 and had an okay experience. The piercer was quiet and didnt ask if where she marked my stomach was okay. I ended up having to go to different tattoo parlor and the other piercers there said I was pierced crooked and with horrible jewelry that was too short and now its infected and I have to pay MORE to get a different barbell thats not made of horrible quality. Id give zero stars if I could; Thank god Its only $15 out of my pocket, otherwise Id go back and demand a refund. DO NOT GO TO YORK INK FOR PIERCINGS!!
Ive has my nose pierced 4 times. The first time I went to piercing pagoda in the mall and paid about $80-90. The 2nd and 3rd time I pierced it myself and the 4th time, in December 2018, I went to york ink. Paid $10 and it’s been in and clean with no problems ever since (no almost May 2019). Got my tragus done February 23rd and haven’t had an issue since. Paid $10 for that also. Went in yesterday (April 27th,2019) and got my belly button pierced. $10. Never had a bad experience and I would 100% recommend going here for piercings. Although the lady may be pushy and somewhat “rude” sometimes, it needs to be understood that she has a lot more people to pierce and needs everyone in and out in order to get everyone done. I don’t think it’s anything personal🤷🏽♀️
Me and my friend went down there today for the 10 dollar piercings, and my experience was fine. Everything was clean and prepared correctly that I know of, but my friends experience was terrible. The woman that did it with all the tattoos on her arm and the short blonde hair, was very mean. And extremely RUDE!!!My friend was very nervous about getting her nose pierced, because after mine my eyes were very watering, and she was not sure about the look on my face while I was getting it done. So when she was about to sit the lady basically was ready to go like didn’t even give her a chance to get comfortable, and about to jab her nose and my friend kept asking me questions, like how badly did it hurt? And so on. And my friend wanted to hold my hands to calm down and the lady was like “you can’t hold her hands, or it’ll go in your cheek!” The lady was not friendly at all. She was very fast and not a pleasant person. Me and my friend will not go back if she will be doing the pierceings!!! She didn’t even have many people after us. But she was just very rude!!!!
Went here today for the special piercing price on weekends and was the first in line!!!!! Was fast service. Deff will be back in the future.
Awesome shop with awesome prices especially over the weekends. $10 per piercing you can’t beat that. My daughters were really happy! Place and employees are clean.
Three $10 piercings for me and three for my bf. All have turned out fabulous :-) :-) Since they have moved they have gotten better. All jewelry is pre-sterilized and individually packaged. My bf got his lobes and helix done. I got my nose, rook, and my auricle redone. Love them!!
Only place ill go for piercings. the atmosphere is super laid back and puts you at ease. the guy who did my piercings answered all my questions and made the process so much easier :)
Got my industrial pierced probably a week or so ago, and they were nice and comforted me since i was panicking cause I got my septum done at the same time and it hurt. But unfortunately my industrial piercing started to dig into my ear and the top hole wasnt healing, it stayed swollen and I couldnt even really touch it. So sadly I had to take it out because it wasnt healing and it was making my ear swell up more.
My friend and I traveled an hour and half to come for the $10 piercings and these incompetent people pierced our nipples with a belly button ring!! The gauge is also smaller than the standard size so there isn’t even jewelry available to change it. I would not recommend anyone to come here for any type of piercing. they do not care about you they only want your money.
I’ve had a few piercings done here. They pierced my surface tragus with the wrong jewelry and it rejected within a few months. I want to get it redone and they refuse to pierce it with the correct jewelry, a surface (staple) barbell!
I went in on fri the 13th with my son for the tattoo special. We waited in line,which went very well. The staff is friendly and the shop is clean. John was my tattoo guy and he is great. I will definitely be scheduling an appointment with him.
We have gotten 6 piercings here over a couple months and have had a great experience every time. Very quick, easy, professional, and pleasant. Great pricing too!
Daughters ears were pierced and she wasnt scared. Very professional
DO NOT GO HERE. I had to park in the lot outside of this tattoo shop to quickly grab my food from the place next door. There was no parking in the lot for the Brickyard Grill, so I had to park here. I was the only car in the entire lot when I parked my car. When I went inside to grab my food (which took under two minutes) one of the employees from York Ink came out of the store with a gun drawn. My girlfriend was in the car (which is stick and she can’t drive stick) and he threatened her to move the car, mind you with a gun out. She had to sit in the car with a gun drawn on her until I got back. All because I had to park in the lot for two minutes. He was outside when I parked and did not say a word to me when I was in the lot, instead he pulled a gun on my girlfriend. I understand I am in The wrong by parking in the spot, even if it was only for two minutes. But he could have said something to me while I was in the lot, and not threatened my girlfriend with a weapon. That’s not how you treat people. I never write reviews but I felt it was necessary after how insanely rude and aggressive the employee was.
Ive been to this shop twice. The first was with a friend who was getting a tattoo and it went pretty well. The second was when a friend and I decided to take advantage of a charity special they were running. That time? What a disaster. First the woman who did our tattoos was extremely rough, I have 6 other tattoos 2 of which are major and large pieces with a lot of intricate design and none of them felt anywhere near the pain from this small tattoo. Then the girl didnt wrap either of our tattoos before we left the shop, and by the time we were nearing home both of us were still dramatically bleeding from the site. Ultimately they healed terribly as well. The shading on the colors are patchy and even have spots missing and places where the color expanded from the outline. If youre looking for a good artist to do a great tattoo please look elsewhere.
My plugs were screwed tight so much that they became slightly infected on the inside of my ear piercings.. my girlfriend had to use pliers for 30 minutes just to get them unscrewed. The store itself is fine but a little unprofessional and ridiculous how freaking tight they screwed my plugs. Ill get my piercings elsewhere.
I come here only for piercings. I think theyre all very talented piercers. Every time Ive come in here theyve been quick and kind and made sure I knew how to take care of them afterwards. So far I have amazing results. Its also very clean.
I really like the woman who pierced me. but unfortunately the jewelry they use is low quality. none of my piercings started to actually heal until i got better jewelry put in. kinda bums me out but you get what you pay for.
Every since I’ve been up here around Harrisburg for school, I be been going there to get my piercing. I got my eyebrow, septum, snakebites, snake eye, surface tragus piercing, and today I got my double forwards helix done. I mostly get the same piercer. I can’t think of her name rn but she’s the only one that has snakebites i think. She amazing! I love going there on the weekends. Definitely going to continue getting my stuff done there.
Claim to be open Mondays but in fact were not. Not a good business look...
The $10 piercings every weekend is unbeatable. they’re clean, totally safe, and great at what they do. almost every piercing i have is from the $10 deal and they’re all fantastic!
Had a terrible experience with a nose piercing. Everyone in York knows not to come here, don’t be fooled by the high reviews.
I have done my nose piercing twice here. my daughter got hers done at a mall with the gun and it kept getting infected and painful. Months later, i brought her here to get it redone (which i wanted to do since the beginning but she got desperate). She has not have any problems with healing at all! These people are very professional and clean! I strongly recommend them
Got my nostril pierced a while back and it was great came back for my septum and its crooked. not even slightly but its highly noticeable.
Most of my piercings are from them! I was a little hesitant about them doing my christina piercing but they ended up doing amazing.
I got my first tattoo today from Kimmy. She was very good at making sure everything was lined up correctly and evenly. Line work was amazing. I definitely plan to go back to her for my next😋
Beyond disgusted. If I could give a negative number i would. A young 15 year old girl got a double lip piercing known as a spider bite by this place last week. She was having pain and the lip was swollen. She called twice and was informed she just needed to take care of it. It was how it was to heal. However she went in today and the girl who looked at it.. immediately removed the two bars. She said that the bars were too small for her lips and it should have been done with a bigger bar. They than told her that was all they could do and sent her home. if they are a professional place of business they should have KNOWN that a bigger bar was needed and should not have pierced her not once but twice with a too small a bar. Than to not apologize or offer to fix the mistake after the lip healed. They let her go home. She went to the Dr and has a massive infection and is on meds now. Yet this place cant even refund her money or offer to make it right in the future. DISGRACEFUL & DISGUSTING! I wouldnt trust my dogs or my ex husband to this place. Take your money and self to a reputable place where you might pay more but at least you get competent work! Such RIP OFF artists.
If you enjoy tattoos that look like they were drawn by a child, overpaying, being treated in an unprofessional manner and getting a SKIN INFECTION then this is the place to go!! Dont bother trying to contact the owner after said skin infection because she will lie about calling her insurance company and then have your name red flagged if you try to call again. This place is absolutely the worst. I have no idea how they are still in business. Do not go here! I repeat, do NOT go here. If I could give ZERO stars I would!
10$ piercings on sat.n sun. If I showed yall my girl piercings yall be jealous
Came here to get my cartilege done and 3 more pairs of ear peircings. Staff was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. I went there on a weekend because they have a $10 special.
Very nice staff, no waiting. Very clean
Ive gotten a lot of piercings here over the years. Always fast, friendly, and clean. Also, $10 piercings on Saturdays and Sundays most weeks, so its awesome.
Literally just left from in to get a septum and I was in and out ! It was bout over 10ppl and u would’ve thought u was gonna be in there forever . I say 10mins lol . My piercing was QUICK N PAINLESS! It don’t even feel like anything is in my nose lol. The lady who did me was awesome!! THANK YOU GUYS!! ONLY $10 & I LIVE IN NYC AND IT WOULDVE BEEN $50!!!
Weird how the employees enforce 6ft distance and do temperature checks but absolutely none of them wore masks. Most customers did but the employees didnt, which seems unprofessional because theyre directly having physical contact with us.
Ive had my belly button, tongue TWICE & my nipples done. ALL by York Ink & I never had an issue, they all healed properly ! Love them, honestly the only place Ill go for piercings ! Going back today for something else.
Got my first tattoo, a nose piercing, and belly button done here. Great experience all around :)
I got my Daith pierced there a few months ago and was nervous. Tish was calming and it was so fast I felt practically nothing. I had blood draws more painful than that piercing. It healed nicely. Im going back for my Tragus this weekend since the Daith worked for the headaches hopefully the Tragus works for weight loss.
I got my daith pierced on both sides at different times. I had heard about it alleviating migraine pain. It works! The piercer was quick, clean, and I felt like she was knowledgeable.
My friend and I got spur of the moment $10 piercings here on a Saturday. They are very efficient and do good work. And you can’t beat that price!
Fast and so easy...very professional. We went for the piercing special, and they operated like a well-oiled machine!
Got my nipples done on a saturday. Only 30 bucks and the girl did a great job. Was done super fast. Sat & Sun $10 piercings
Iv had a couple of friends already get infections here and with the post that’s going around this place needs to take some accountability or there gonna be losing everyone.
Kimmy is my artist and shes pretty great. All other staff were very kind and quite hysterical honestly. Im going in for a touch up but, so far sooooooooo good!!!
Don’t do it. You could get a better tattoo/piercing in a cleaner environment with proper spelling in a sketchy back alleyway than at this place.
Very nice staff. My daughter went in for 2 piercings, was out in less than 5 mins. Very reasonable prices
Ive always had a good peircing experience at York Ink. However i just went Sunday March 4. I was peirced by a tall woman with short spikey blonde hair. She did good with my nose. However she was horrible with my ears. She never have me do breathing in and out, didnt tell me she was doing it. What made everything bad was she did not even mark my lobes. She just peirced it and they are COMPLETELY uneven. When i look straight ahead you can’t tell i have my second lobe on one ear because it is so low and the other one is so high. I’m dissapointed with how this visit went and unsure if what to do.
I got all of my piercings done there and they are amazing and highly professional and very kind and are very understanding with questions and fears
Took very good care of me once I passed out from getting my belly button pierced. Everyone stopped what they were doing to help out. Excellent service.
YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR, look it up on facebook, terrible customer service, blotched jobs, manyyyy piercing infections and screw ups, don’t risk your body/health go somewhere else!
This is my fourth piercing from this place! I love it. Always go for the special they have on the weekends!
I got my belly pierced and I LOVED IT, great service and everything! I am getting a septum this weekend. Great place 👍🏻🫶🏻
First time there. Got my nipples pierced. Was very nervous. Piercer did amazing and it was quick and pianless! Would go again. I reccomend them.
So went in for both of my nips and the girl was absolutely amazing ...between walking inside the shop, getting pierced and out to my car took less than 10 minutes super fast , a very very clean shop, and hella friendly I was nervous af but the girl who did my piercing was helpful amazing and fast no pain no bleeding no issues whatsoever (so far) I would definitely keep coming for more piercings
I got all my piercings and tattoo on my foot here. Wouldnt go anywhere else almost 2 years later my tattoo looks brand new. I would recommend this tattoo shop to everyone! Friendly service and great work!
My daughter gets piercings here on the weekends for $10. So far no problems. I night have to get something the next time.
John Hughs was absolutely amazing. We love our matching tattoos. We will be coming back to him again. Thank you for such an awesome experienceTresa & Joanne
Absolutely will not support this business after hearing all the horror stories of their poor piercing and tattooing skills.
Horrible place to go, customer service is horrible. don’t waste your time or money. workers are rude with attitude and simply aren’t considerate of their customers.
Fast and easy I got a dermal they did great the talked to me the whole time and its inexpensive. Ive always gone here for Peircings. 7 of them all good
I went to their $10 piercing on a Saturday with 3 of my girls. The line moved fast and everyone was super nice and professional.
The line was long, but worth the wait. The staff was friendly and helpful. Knowledgeable about their product/service. The establishment was immaculate. Social distancing enforced . I will visit again.
I started going to York Ink for my piercings and I love everyone of my piercings. But this tattoo means a lot to me and I would never have went anywhere else to get it other then york ink. There very clean and gental.
I just got my medusa done and a 2nd nose piercing. I dnt normally write reviews LOL but Im happy with my service. Im very satisfied.
Loved It And The Piercer Knew Exactly What She Was Doing,,She Got My Mind Off Of My Industrial Piercing,,And She Was So Nice And Clean About Herself,,She Deserved The 5 Dollar Tip I Gave Her!! Found My Next Favorite Place!! ☺☺
