Experience has always been good except one time, I e been here many times. I was getting my tragus pierced, the piercer did the first side no problem but the second side was a different story. He was causing me so much pain my ears started ringing and I was about to pass out, this us not normal for me. He finally decided to wait until the owner came, he was on his way. Come to find out the first guy hadn't pierced it straight. The owner gave me my money back for all piercings I received that day which amounted to $120. So horrible turned into not so bad.

Went to get matching tattoos with a friend and though I have had multiple tattoos done here by a different artist I am so monstrously disappointed. Our tattoos do not match, and as much as I was convinced I was just being dramatic during the tattoo process, she and I both have scarring and ink loss in the same exact spot. These were pieces done almost 2 weeks ago and are still relatively painful to the touch, and up until 3 days ago were cracking and bleeding. I now have a 2 1/2” scar on my arm without much ink in it. The only reason I am giving a 2 star instead of 1 is because dude was very nice and had great customer service (but pricey) i will not be returning, or recommending people here for tattoos which I have done for a few years now. Just so bummed out.

Only place I'll get my tattoos and peircings from. Been to some other places and did not have the same fun and exciting experience that I did a expo.

Ripped me off, bought a product for 40 and my bank card was charged 52.80 and they said all sales are final. Nice business plan

It was a decent place but the people there were unfriendly. I wouldn't suggest my friends to go there
