Love love love my nose piercing from Christie. She was wonderful!! She really knows what she is doing!! The staff were so helpful with making sure I got the best piece of jewelry since I am sensitive to certain metals.

I have been to Time Bomb many times over the years for tattoos, piercings of my own, and piercings for my daughters (ears) as well. I love this shop- and all their employees are friendly, professional, very talented, and highly trained. The shop is always super clean, and well organized. On this particular day, I came in to have my lip repierced. I didn’t realize with Covid that appointments were required! However, they were very accommodating and able to fit me into their schedule right away. I was brought in, had my personal items placed in a UV sanitizer, and asked to wash my hands prior to entering the shop (very impressed!). One of the shop employees was also cleaning behind me, and then the high traffic areas of the shop while I was there (again very impressed!!). We picked out the jewelry I wanted from their vast selection, and then the piercer (Jasper) went back to the piercing room to clean it, and sanitize and prepare the equipment and jewelry. He was vey professional, explained the whole process, everything he was using and doing at each step and why, and my piercing was done quickly and painlessly. He was very gentle placing the jewelry too! I was given verbal, written, and emailed aftercare instructions; and advised to contact the shop with ANY questions or concerns. As always, a truly fantastic experience at Time Bomb, and I’ll remain a regular and dedicated customer here as long as they are open! In fact, I’m returning tomorrow for a dermal piercing that Ive been wanting too! Cannot recommend this shop enough!

I just got my nose pierced by Danni tonight and it was the best experience! The shop is clean and in a good location. The whole staff was very helpful and friendly! Their jewelry selection is excellent. Could not have gone better! Will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend to anyone who is nervous about getting pierced! The whole team made me feel comfortable and the process was fast! No appointment needed, I just walked in!

Sarah did my first tattoo a few weeks ago. I had such a great experience. I made an appointment, so she was ready as soon as I got there. She guided me in picking a font and suggested the best size and exact location. I am so excited with how it turned out. I have gotten so many compliments about how thorough a job she did (two people I know are already scheduling appointments with her). Will definitely be going back for future tattoos.

Everyone there was super friendly! The artist did an amazing job on the tattoo I got. I can't wait to go back and get another one!

Nice and welcoming location and staff. Very clean and professional. It was my 1st time ever getting a piercing, and I was slightly nervous. But Danni made me feel at ease, plus my piercing looks & is healing up great! 10/10 Will visit again to get more work done.

Holly Brewer

Got my nostril pierced two weeks ago and it was a great experience. Place was very clean and Capt. Gordon was very professional. There were so many options for jewelry and the girl at the front was super helpful and friendly. Piercing itself was quick and surprisingly not painful at all! Love it!

Makoto did my first (and only) tattoo. I was so nervous and he put me ease. I appreciated the way we collaborated together to make my vision into reality and how he added his professional advice along the way. The place is super clean and professional with computer equipment that made my design exactly how I wanted it. He was very clear in the aftercare instructions. Everything is super sanitized there and the environment is relaxed and not pretentious. Makoto also was very reasonable in his pricing. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! It's important to me that I can connect with the person who leaves permanent artwork on my body. I'm extremely happy with my art piece. I highly recommend him!!!!

Hair Doc Fox

Matt was an amazing artist. He did my cat memorial tattoo with flowers and it came out amazing!! He was very quick and detailed and what I thought would’ve been a 4 hour tattoo turned into 2 and a half 3 hour tattoo. The price was amazing and customer service made it all the worth while. If your in town and want a beautiful piece go to Time Bomb and have make do a piece for you!!
