I went to this shop after searching the internet to find a good Piercer and read nothing but good things... I went there and Lauren was so nice and easy to talk to. I went in to get both of ears pierced (conch) and she did an awesome job and I would definitely recommend her if you are looking to get a piercing. Lauren is very knowledgable and answers any questions you may have.
The facility was very clean and the staff seemed super nice. Highly recommend this place.

Good art. However messed up the design of my first tattoo ever. Never really had the nerve to say that though. Still looks nice though. My problem is the ignorance they have towards lgbt. Danny decided to blurt out “there’s only two” meaning two genders which even if he was joking, just really through me off. I prefer a place that’s not ignorant. Artwork is good however and place is very clean and neat. Overall I just go there for the art. Not the hospitality. Lauren is great piercer though!! did my snakebites, and eyebrow. No complaints on that one.

Great place to get my first tattoos done. Chriz was very helpful and helped keep me calm during my session. I didn't get super complicated, or detailed tattoos, so I did not get to see his full artistic potential, however his portfolio is very impressive. The place is very clean and sanitary. I would definitely recommend this place and I will definitely be going back if I ever want another tattoo done.

I've gotten my belly button pierced and my first tattoo here. Jason did a fantastic job. Service is great, the people are friendly. Definitely coming back for any future tattoos.

I went to this shop on 1/08/2019 and consulted with the owner named Chriz about a simplistic tattoo. Chriz informed me he could do the tattoo and he quoted me a price and scheduled me for the appointment the following day.

on 01/09/2019 when I arrived for my appointment the owner greeted me but someone else came out who he introduced me to and he informed me they would be performing the tattoo. When I arrived in the shop no other customers were present and they were not busy at all. I consulted with the new artist about what I wanted and he said he would need 20-30 minutes to perform a sketch.

While I didn’t care about waiting I was already noticing things could get shaky. The events that started to unfold was not consistent with the original plan that was addressed 24 hours prior. I was informed by the owner the sketch of what I wanted would already be completed and he would be executing this mission.

When the new artist returned from his room he showed me a nice sketch but he quoted me a price that was 50 dollars more than the original price quote I received from the owner 24 hours prior. I would also like to add that the tattoo looked a little smaller than what I originally wanted. I opted not to get my tattoo done here because When I brought this to his attention the new artist didn’t say anything and when I inquired about a military discount he said no because the whole area is military or related.

I respect everyone and how they conduct their business however to me this was totally outrageous. I feel given the current state of affairs I can’t spend my money with an establishment that doesn’t stand by their original statements or acknowledge when a issue has taken place and try to correct the problem. My issue has nothing to do with discounts it was just the principle and how things unfolded out of order. I did have enough money to get the tattoo but the miscommunication about prices and who was doing the work was not professional in my opinion.

The owner Chriz is extremely COMBATIVE, DEFENSIVE, and PROVOKING.

I came in with my partner in October to get matching tattoos of a simple infinity design. The artists Daniel Dmitry and Jason Lampel did our tattoos. Jason did my tattoo and charged me $150 for the 3 inch wrist tattoo which he completed in 10,15 mins.

I immediately realized the issues with the line work; and, after three weeks, I was not satisfied with the way my tattoo looked at all. The line work was splotchy and very uneven and seemed to disconnect in certain parts. We waited the three weeks for the tattoo to heal like we were advised by Chriz before we came back in to get mine re-worked.

That’s when we experienced the EGREGIOUS UNPROFESSIONALISM of the owner Chriz. He lied about not giving refunds to customers saying it was in the contract I signed (of course, the contract mentions nothing about customers not being able to receive refunds) and he made up excuses as to why Jason’s tattoo looked different than Dmitri’s tattoo, even though the two artists spoke with my partner and I about the agreed upon final product.

I’ll end with this: If you care about reaching a resolution as a potentially unsatisfied customer PLEASE. LOOK. ELSEWHERE. The owner stands behind all of his artists’ work and will do anything to cover up a genuine error on his staff’s behalf. I’m truly disgusted and disappointed with how this entire situation played out being that this was my first tattoo.

I would not recommend this tattoo shop at all because of the disgusting unprofessionalism displayed by the owner Chriz.

Went there to have my 10 year old daughter's ear ring cut as she was having pain from time to time and it isn't something that could be removed. They cut the ear ring promptly and at the perfect spot so that it could be removed easily. Further, it was so quick and so well done that my daughter didn't even feel it. When I got ready to pay for the service they said they were not going to charge me for that. They even gave my daughter a lollipop before they took us in to cut her ear ring. They were friendly, professional and competent.

Horrible consumer service. DO NOT GIVE them any deposit. Once you set up a appointment, you better wish nothing major happens that prevents you from calling to reschedule because if you don’t then your deposit is gone. I set up a late appointment and I was with my wife at the doctor and by the time I had signal, it was way after closing. Told them right when they open the next day but was told if I want to reschedule then I would need to give another deposit. I find it hard to believe anybody would give another $50 to reschedule with this tattoo shop. Take your money somewhere else.

I had a great experience!! This was my first tattoo and Chriz did an amazing job. I am 100% going back for my next tattoo and recommending him to all of my friends.

Clean shop, friendly people, all around great time!!

Today I got a tattoo done by Jason. Awesome work. His skill in tattooing is one of best that I've seen. I have 3 previous tattoos done by other guys. He puts them to shame. This was my last tattoo at 50 but if I was going to get another he's my guy. Thanks Jason
