Friendly Staff Efficient Service Reasonable Pricing

I went there to have them help me with my nose piercing that was semi closed up and the ring was stuck in my nose. TJ was so friendly and welcoming and had it removed and reinserted in less than 90 seconds. I was so afraid it would be extremely painful since I couldn't get it out myself and he had it fixed and I didn't feel a thing. He also didn't charge me because he said he just wants to make sure people don't hurt themselves trying to fix piercings. 10/10 would recommend and will recommend.

Great Service Good with Kids Cute Photo Op

TJ is the absolute best! I took both my daughters to get their ears pierced when they were 6. He did an excellent job and is great with kids. Plus they have a cute photo op area.

Friendly Staff Professional Great Atmosphere Body Jewelry Highly Recommend

Friendly and professionally smooth staff, lots of atmosphere upon walking in the door. Piercing, body jewelry, and tats here. I bought a couple pieces of jewelry and the staff inserted them for me, so gently and carefully. Highly recommend, and I know where to go for future body decorations.

Wonderful atmosphere Attentive staff Unique style Professional service Clean environment Good aftercare

Dark Heart has a wonderful atmosphere and the staff is very attentive. Inviting and unique style. I drove 3 hours to be pierced by the mustached legend himself. Tj is truly a professional in the piercing field. Extremely clean, quick, and easy. I was even offered a popsicle afterwards as well as free aftercare solution. 10/10 would let stab again.

Professional Comfortable Humorous Customer Service

I came to Dark Heart to get my nipples pierced. This was my second time getting them done. TJ was incredibly professional and made me feel comfortable through conversation and his comedic sense of humor. About a week or so into having the piercing, I came to conclusion that the bar was too small for my body. TJ allowed me to come back and get an elongated bar free of charge and even swapped them out for me for free. I would recommend dark heart to anyone and everyone.

Great Place Great People Great Vibe Professional Service Quick Service

Great place, great people, great vibe, I would probably just wonder in off the street to look at the stuff one day and end up throwing a quarter into the flash machine and coming out with a tattoo.
TJ Kruger did my lip piercing and he was very professional, concise and quick.

Professional Friendly Talented Reasonable Prices

Seriously everyone here is so nice and professional yet down to earth. Not one person had a bad attitude here. Kyle was my tattoo artist and he did an amazing job! He was fun thru the whole session and took the time to continue to rework my design until I was happy with it. He put my mind at ease since I was a little nervous; didn't even hurt. Best experience! I'm glad I found this little gem and I will definitely be referring everyone here and coming back myself.
P.S. The price was spot on, so kudos to Dark Heart for being an honest company with honest employeesβ™‘

Clean Shop Friendly Staff Immaculate Work Safe Environment Highly Recommended

I was tattooed by Dani last October and I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Dark Heart in Crystal Lake. The shop itself is very clean and there’s tons of cool flash and art decorating the walls. Everyone I interacted with before my appointment was super nice and made you feel right at home. I had gotten a flash piece from one of Dani’s flash sheets and her work is immaculate. It looks just as great as it did when it was fresh. She really does everything to make sure you feel safe and comfortable throughout your tattoo experience. As a healthcare worker, I also really appreciated the fact that they still have a mask policy in place. They just want to make sure the clients, as well as the tattooers themselves are protected. All in all, you really can’t go wrong with any of the tattooers at this shop depending on your personal tattoo style preference. I highly recommend Dark Heart to anyone!
