TL;DR -
1 step forward 2 steps back!
- Disrespecting the Transhumanism movent in guise of fausly representing the Transgender movement.
For a community claiming to promote the trans movement; I felt disrespected, picked on, and isolated when expressing my identity.
Upon sign in, when asked to give your official information, one of the questions is your preferred pronoun.
I gave mine, which is "Dingus": a made up word from the children's show Adventure Time.
After my piercing, I was asked to never come to the shop again, and I quote "We feel you were disrespectful by your answer on our questionnaire. We have trans people working here. "
I offered my sincere apology, was turned down when I offered a tip for the service (which I was happy with), and I felt unable to have a solid discourse; instead the owner's mind already made up.
Again, this is not a transgender friendly business, rather a trans-trans phobic house of oxymoronic Idiocracy!
I wish the business and employees the best of luck on their journey of "finding self". Here's a tip: don't judge and ridicule the very people who make up your group ❣️

I love it here! Beautiful jewelry and excellent people. The price is reasonable from piercing to tattoo. Some of the most well known local artists are here and the business has been well established since 1995. I'm looking forward to my tattoo especially after having such a great experience with my daughters septum piercing. Different person but neither would have been there this long if they were subpart. I'm sure there are other places in town but that's not the answer when you consider what you will be living with for the rest of your life. The piercing is very clean and they strive for perfection. Make an appointment if you've ever wanted a piercing or tattoo. You won't regret it!

I custom ordered a piece from Anatometal through Primal Decor. I couldn’t even get other shops to call me back or answer the phone but Primal staff picked up every time I called with a polite and professional attitude. They helped me through sizing and pricing without a hitch, and the jewelry came sterile and shipped sealed in plastic inside the envelope to avoid tampering. Honored original price. Beautiful piece! Exactly as ordered. Would definitely order here again.

Louis has given me 7 beautiful tattoos over the last several years. Today I got 2 tattoos in memory of my daughter's sudden, recent, passing away. Louis again, gave me beautiful tattoos. One included "Love You, Mama", in her hand writing. The rest of the staff are extremely nice. As always, Primal Decor make it a very positive experience.

This place is beautiful! Not what you would expect a typical tattoo shop to look like, so many different choices for GOOD quality jewelry. The piercer Valente is amazing. So thorough, so clean, and quick! Hardly felt a thing. I've had several body piercings, and he has truly been the fastest and most respectful piercer I have ever been to.

UPDATE to show other side done in October by the other awesome piercer, Valente!
I’ve had my nose pierced for about 3 months now and it is healing beautifully, thanks to Xochi!
She really took her time and made sure she had everything clean/set up. I work in the medical field so-I have a different level of appreciation for that kind of thing🌞
I will have to get back in to get the other side pierced❤️

One of the only good places around from what I've seen and read from local reviews. Can be very pricey compared to other piercing shops, but will not have the same guarantee of quality experience. I went during covid (even pricer, but worth it) to get two second lobe piercings plus the jewelry and had a great experience. Amazing piercer, friendly, precise (literally measured with a small ruler to make sure they were even), and walked me right through the process making sure I was prepared. Also VERY COVID SAFE.

The cleanest friendliest and most professional shop hands down...
