Archer Avenue Tattoo & Body Piercing

My girl and I were excited about her getting a tattoo. I even called off work bc I wanted to be there with her. But when I got there. They told me I wouldn’t be allowed to be with her. On top they put dividers so I wouldn’t see. Something that was supposed to be a great experience turned into a disappointment. Never again are we coming here again. Wouldn’t recommend getting a tattoo from here with your partner.

PIERCING EXPERIENCE:
Eddie is your guy! I went to Eddie after I read several good reviews. I was not disappointed. He pierced my daith and I had to go back for more! He has now pierced a forward helix and anti-tragus as well! If you are unsure of what you want or what will look best for your ear ,he will happily consult with you. He is professional, fun , educational and CLEAN. The ambiance is chill and has positive frequencies. You do not need an appointment to get pierced. Their updated hours are as follows : 2pm-10pm.
FYI : tipping makes it hurt less*

I came in to do a Ashley piercing which goes through the lip and comes out through the back. I met with Jr to get it pierced we used a straight bar and it was placed too low for my liking. I ended up getting my nose pierce but paid for the jewelry of my lip. Ok cool. Told me to come back and I didn’t have to worry about next time it was “cool”. I came back after it healed. Met with the apprentice told him about my last encounter. I wanted a straight bar and in the middle of my lip. He seemed a bit fussed he insisted with a curve piercing. Jr agreed. But was the same person who pierced me with a straight bar. Long story short. It’s again not in the middle of my lip. We’ve made many marks and finally agreed the placement and still. Not where we decided. They changed the piercing 3 times and ended up putting a straight bar . I paid a fee and tipped. I am very disappointed. I have to now wait again and to get it pierced. The takeaway, listening to the clients wants not getting passive aggressive. I lost money and what my lip had to go through twice is not right.

Great people, Eddie has done great work on some piercing for my 15 year old. What I really liked is the 101 teaching he gave her to look out for in the future when getting piercings and how to look out for sterile tools. We were happy with our service we went back for a 2 nd piercing and are planning for the 3rd.

I had a great experience at Archer Ave Tattoo and Body Piercing. I am very happy with my septum piercing. I was very nervous at first (being my 1st piercing) but Eddie put me at ease right away. He was friendly, professional and informative. He did an amazing job measuring correctly and putting in perfectly straight. I absolutely love my piercing. Highly recommend!!

I’ve been a client of Eddie’s for many many years, and there isn’t any other piercer I would recommend to family and friends. He’s incredibly professional and insightful. I always trust his process and recommendations. Even when I walk in not having a clue what I’m there for, he’s patient and walks me through my options. He makes me feel calm and comfortable when I’m anxious about pain. His sense of humor makes getting pierced fun for me (I hate pain). The jewelry he uses has never given me any issues. I’ve kept some original jewelry in for years with no problems. He has many options to chose from and explains what he thinks would look best, which he is never wrong about. He’s informative about aftercare, and even checks in a few weeks later with you. Anytime I, or someone I referred, sees Eddie, we always walk out very happy. Again, there is no other piercer in my book.

Got my septum, I was nervous. Really isn’t as bad as I thought. Definitely recommend coming here, the service was great!

Went in last minute to get a tattoo and Diana did mine. She did the exact tattoo I wanted and was patiently doing my tattoo because it was my first one. She was super friendly and took her time. She kept asking if I was holding up which I appreciate because I know some friends who have gotten tattoos and their artist just rush it through. Tattoo didn’t really hurt and I was very satisfied. I would recommend this place!!!!

Awesome experience, clean and friendly staff! They make you feel at home and comfortable while getting your tattoo! Ivan did my tattoo he had a great humble personality and was very creative with the idea of tattoo I wanted. Will definitely be back and recommend my friends and family!!!

I went to get my naval re-pierced yesterday. It was done last year at another shop but it rejected. Eddie explained to me it would be best to do an inverse piercing on me. No pain initially and none today either (day after). It really is a major difference between the last time it was done and this time. He knows what he’s doing! Super funny guy as well, which helped with my nerves. I’ll definitely be back to see him. Thank you so much 😊
