Wonderful facility. I came in with a drawing I had of my idea. Dean took it and had a beautiful tattoo ready when I came back a day later. He helped me make sure that everything was spelled right and that the placement was where I wanted it. Couldn't be happier with the work that was done.

A friend of mine has gotten piercings here many times before. She has nothing but praise for them and especially her piercer Jeff. The facilities are clean and they do good work.

Went in for a memorial tattoo of many friends and family who have passed these last two years and for my brother who is passing now of cancer. I was so lucky to have Andy who took the idea in my head and brought it to life. I knew I wanted a frog standing up wearing a gray fedora hat with a horseshoe around his ankle and throwing a dart.
What Andy came up with was above and beyond expectations and his saturation and blending of colors along with cool little shadows were impeccable.
Give your tattoo artists the chance to do their jobs!!! Let them design...they will BLOW YOU AWAY with their skills! Andy....I LOVE LOVE LOVE! Super job and awesome awesome talented tattooer ~~

Walked in off the street, Told Nick what I wanted, 10 minutes later he had it drawn up, and we tried several spots for placement, 30-60 minutes later I've got a great tat with nice clean lines, and great shadeing! Not sure how long it took cause Nick was very friendly!
My wife and I are gonna get matching tats and I'm gonna request Nick to do it!

I was visiting Minnesota from South Florida. The purpose of the visit was to meet five grieving mothers who were members of a grief group I facilitate on social media. As part of the weekend, we decided to get a small heart tattoo in remembrance of all our children that had died. Anchors End was recommended to us. We went as a group of six and waited on November 11, 2017 for our matching tattoo hearts. While I was waiting, I started to look at the piercing area of the facility. Taryn walked over and answered some of my question and suggested a small diamond like stud for a nose piercing. She then did the piercing of my nose. I returned home to Florida 3 days later, continuing to use a saline spray I purchased from Anchors End, as instructed. After about one week, I was looking at the outside of my nose and I could not see the diamond stud., even though I could still feel it slightly. By ten days, the stud was completely invisible and I could not feel it. I looked inside my nose and the entire post from the stud was hanging inside my nostril all the way down to the base of my nose. In that I had never had a nose piercing before, I asked a few people about my concerns. They all told me that there was something wrong and advised that I seek out help. I was recommended to go to Piercing Pro in Boca Raton, Florida. When I called the owner, and explained the situation, he told me immediately that the piercing was done incorrectly and that he strongly suggested coming into his facility. He said it could be infected as well. I left work early and arrived at the Piercing Pro. The owner who has been doing piercings, and only piercings for over 20 years, examined my nose. He told me again that the piercing was done incorrectly. He explained that the diamond like stud was too small that was used and had eventually imbedded itself in between the outer skin of my nose and the inside. Upon further examination, he said there was signs of an infection growing with pus. He removed the piercing and strongly suggested I seek out medical care. I then followed up with a visit to the emergency room where I was put on a course of antibiotics for 10 days as well as a follow up with my primary doctor. I called Anchors End 3 days later in that my husband was taken to the emergency room the following day and was admitted for chest pains. I spoke to Nick at Anchors End and explained the entire story. I told him that not only did I have an infection now, and was told that the piercing was done incorrectly, but I had incurred a total of $545 between the charge from Anchors End, the kind owner of Piercing Pro and the ER. I asked to speak to the manager regarding having my monies refunded as a small token on their part for all that I had to endure. Nick assured me he would have the manager call. Three days went by and I still had no call from Anchors End. I called them again today, on November 27 and spoke to Taryn. I asked to speak to Nick but she refused to do so. I proceeded to tell her I had explained my situation with Nick prior and was waiting for a call back from the manager. She said "I know all about your story and we are not giving you a refund" I told her again what I had to go through and she said that I should have called them. I said that would not have been possible at the time, because I was in Florida. I reminded her that I did call 3 days ago after I got my husband back home and stabilized. She then ended her conversation telling me that I had signed a waiver. I responded that the waiver was to hold them harmless, but not for negligence. With that, the conversation was ended. I then wrote a review on their FB page, which Jeff from Anchors End responded back that I had sexually harassed one of the tattoo personnel during my visit with the other grieving mothers. I was appalled by this. I am a 63 year old grieving mother. At this point, I am left with a huge bill and no compassion from Anchors End.
