I love getting my piercings done here. I've had 6 piercings done here so far and I absolutely love them. They are clean, professional, and really quick. They always go through the procedure and ask for any questions. They're all really friendly too.
They also have a punch card. The third piercing you get includes free jewelry and the 6th piercing is free.

I've gotten both piercings (with Liz♥️) and tattoos (with Michela♥️) done here and I will continue to go only here until I move out of state. Feels like home when I walk in 😭♥️

I’ve gotten many tattoos done by Luke aka Menace. Every single time the shop has been clean and sanitized and Luke has done an absolutely amazing job on my tattoos. Luke is very thorough during the whole process from consultation to the end, and the only person I trust to tattoo me.

Most excellent service. Maggie and the front desk lady were great. I kind of had a meltdown (grieving mother) and they were so kind and reassuring. Maggie stretched my old piercing holes so we were able to put my daughters earrings in. Followed CDC guidelines & protocol so I felt safe. Thanks for everything. I will return for future piercings.

I am SO beyond happy with my experience here! I got my thirds (lobe piercings) done here. Not only were they the cheapest place that didn't use guns, but they were super friendly. I'd spoken to them several times via email about the piercings I would be coming in for, and they always answered promptly. They were more than willing to answer any questions I had, as well as the several questions my aunt had.
We had a bit of a wait, but that's because they take their time so they do it right, make sure the client knows how to care for their piercings, and they clean thoroughly before the next person.
Jennie, my piercer, was very caring and nice. She made extra sure that I was doing okay through the whole process and was extremely careful in lining up where my piercings would be.
My only complaint, if you can even call it that, is that I wasn't told which jewelry would be best until after I'd chosen some and gotten the piercing done. However, that could be my mistake for not asking as well, which I didn't think to do because I was a bit nervous.
I will definitely be coming back here for all of my future piercings, and I've already recommended them to several people.
I am extremely happy with my experience and my new piercings!

My cousin & I wanted to get tattoos. We decided upon this place because it was the only place open later than 8pm.
First off, the receptionist was extremely rude. She tried to be nice, but came off as a rude type of “nice” for lack of a better word. The type of atmosphere that makes you unsure if you came to the right place to get a tattoo. She wasn’t helpful, at all, and just kind of sat there. Yikes.
Secondly, all we wanted was a SMALL heart, literally not when the size of my pinky nail — and after talking to the receptionist, it would be $80 for their shop minimum. Okay, fine, we know that shops have minimums and whatnot. So after the receptionist goes to one of the artists who were there, he comes out and tells us $100. $100 each for a tattoo that will maybe take 10 minutes, if that. I’m curious to see how the price jumped up $20, not including tip.
** I would also like to note that this was around 8pm, maybe a little bit after and the shop was not busy.
Safe to say, we didn’t get a tattoo that night and are happy about our decision.
