Fat Kat Tattoo & Body Piercing

I can’t say enough great things about this place! My granddaughter had a nose piercing gone wrong by not coming here in the first place. Misty took care of us and never made my granddaughter feel bad or scared. She was amazing!!

Came in as a walk-in for a septum piercing and I was super impressed! Everything was super clean, the staff were super friendly and knowledgeable, and I was in and out pretty quickly. Misty was a great piercer and as a person with anxiety she made me feel super comfortable. She walked me through each step and my piercing looks great!

Made an appointment about 1-2 weeks before yesterday. Then when I arrived yesterday I was told I needed a birth certificate with a notary and both mine and my parents ID. I had a notary and my father and I both had our ID but that did not matter in this case. I’ve gotten both my nose piercing and stomach tattoo done here and the birth certificate wasn’t needed. But now for a navel piercing it is? I do understand however they should go through this thoroughly and not be such an A hole when talking to customers. Drove 30 minutes for nothing.

Huge shoutout to Misty for being the best piercer I’ve ever had! She’s super sweet, very thorough, informative, & reassuring. She’s done 3 of my piercings (septum, nostril, and belly button) and each time she discussed the piercings with me, talked me through the whole process telling me exactly what she was doing & what I was gonna feel, went over the cleaning instructions as many times as I needed, answered all my questions with expertise, & still managed to make small talk in between! She even helped me put in a septum ring I had bought at another location that I was having trouble with. Getting a piercing can be very anxiety inducing but Misty has such a calming personality & aura around her you can’t help but to be relaxed. I absolutely love her, she’s definitely earned me as a lifetime customer. Whether you’re a seasoned body modder or a first timer, I highly recommend booking her for all your piercing needs. I’ve only ever been there to be pierced but the rest of the shop has a very relaxed, laid back vibe & you’re bound to feel comfortable no matter where you’re at inside. I highly recommend visiting Fat Kat, you won’t regret it. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

I was coming in for a septum and was thrown off to learn that the piercer I scheduled an appointment with online was not the one to pierce me when I came in. I got an email the day before stating that I had an appointment with Misty Dawn, and wasn’t given prior communication that I’d be seen by someone else. Because the piercer I scheduled my appointment with was a woman and I learned the day of that the person who would be actually piercing me was male, it created a lot of discomfort for me, especially for it being my first piercing. I wish I could have been informed before. This could also be due to capacity, but when asked if my sibling could join me in the room that I was being pierced in, my piercer didn’t allow it, thus creating more discomfort. The piercing itself was quick and efficient. I also received different aftercare instructions from my piercer, the slip that the piercer gave me, and the person I spoke on the phone with so I had a lack of clarity for something very important.

Got a septum done by Misty! Very sweet, quick and professional. Was nervous at first as it was the first piercing I ever gotten by myself but after talking to her, I got over it quickly. Very informative and I was there in and out. Nice, clean and welcoming atmosphere inside and everyone else was friendly. Love my new piercing and would definitely come back in the future!

I have been going to this shop for over 2 years now for piercings and tattoos. I have gotten most of my piercings from Misty. She is amazing, I almost passed out during a piercing, and she gave me Capri sun. When I had two piercings that were trying to reject, she was so helpful by taking them out when I couldn't and helping me bandage them up. I have gotten tattoos from several artists at this shop but will always love Edwin the most. He has done over 30 tattoos for my patchwork sleeve and we are on the journey to hopefully finishing it next month and then starting my other arm soon. It is the BEST shop in Jax, and I recommend anyone to come here no matter, the customer service from the employees is out of this world!!

I NEVER thought the first time I would walk into a tattoo shop would be with my 10 year old, but today was such the day. We let her ears close up due to infection and she has wanted to get them re-pierced for a while now. I cannot thank Misty at Fat Kat Tattoo & Piercing for taking such great care of us.

My bride and I got our first ink done yesterday and all we can say is “wow”. To say we were happy is an understatement. Chris G was our artist and his work was phenomenal. We already have plans to be back for more! Chris was very personable and entertaining! The staff in the whole place were flat out awesome. The shop was spotless and exactly the type of place you want to get ink done.

Misty was so wonderful! She’s friendly, fun, and so accommodating when I had some issues with my piercing. Super highly recommended, this place is a gem!
