I came to iron tiger as a walk in around 7 pm and was in and out within about an hour. I have been pierced here before and each time I have come in, I feel very comfortable and treated as a valued customer. Moe was the artist who tattooed my ankle and after showing him what I wanted, he made an even better design. He made my first tattoo experience incredibly comfortable and worry free. He distracted me while doing the tattoo and informed me of all the after care procedures I needed to know. I will absolutely be coming back to iron tiger and to Moe for more piercings and tattooes.

Man, so, I was so nervous when I went here. I am pretty new to Columbia, and haven't had a piercing since I was 16, and am 40!! lol....This place was great tho!! Wait was short, and the piercer totally made me feel at ease. I'm totally going back for more :)

I got my nose pierced last year here. It was a great experience. Explained why it is placed where it is and explained after care well. It healed great and I don’t regret it one bit

I had some simple ear piercings done with Sid and had a great experience. He was really nice and professional, and got the job done really quick. Highly recommend!

I have been to iron tiger for a majority of my work. I typically am extremely pleased. I've never had any issues. November of 2015 my husband and I got matching tattoos by Apache Collin.... I immediately had concerns when I seen how it began healing. Mind you, that was my 11th tattoo? So this wasn't my first time caring for it.
I reached out to Collin via Email within a month of getting the matching tattoos, (which is how he requested we contact him in regards to a touch up.)He said the tattoos needed more time to heal and to contact him again if we were unhappy. I recently contacted him AGAIN via email.. only for him to NOT RESPOND. So I reached out a 2nd time within a week... NO RESPONSE.
Well here we are, almost year later. Our tattoos STILL have NOT been touched up! The color, is faded terribly and they aren't even a year old.
Paying for a tattoo, and being snubbed when you need a touch up ISN'T okay. Period
We will never return.

Went there for a super small piece just this past weekend with some friends (one who was getting a tat and another was getting her septum) and Morgan was literally the best tattoo artist I've had. My design was simple and pre-made, so I can't really say much on her artwork, but she was super fun to talk to but also wasn't wasting your time. She got through my friend and I in MAYBE 45 minutes total, not even that, and the healing is going great. I was always a hard ass and said I'd only get ink done in St. Louis, but my mind is officially changed. Can't wait to have her do my next piece!

Went in for a piercing on Sunday, and I was wary because last time I came the guy up front was friendly but the piercer was "hangry" (so hungry, he was angry). This was a far more pleasant experience. The gentleman that was piercing was very nice, made sure I was please with the location of the jewelery before we pierced me, and cleaned me up a few times before I left. I highly recommend going on a Sunday to see who I assume was Sid, rather than going to Living Canvas.

I got my cartilage pierced at Iron Tiger about a year and a half ago. The experience itself wasn't too terribly painful and they give you good advice as to how to take care of it.
The reason why I am giving them 2 stars is because of what is happening over a year later. I originally got a hoop put in. Once it had healed, I replaced it with a stud. Ever since I have replaced it, I have not been able to get the hoop back in. When I try and do so, my piercing swells and starts to bleed. There has also been a bump behind my ear ever since I got the piercing done.
I have had cartilage pierced at other places and did not have any of these issues, which is why I am giving them the rating I am. I didn't have problems with the service, just the quality of piercing.

Jordan is the BEST! He was able to work up exactly what I was looking for! The ONLY place I go for any tattoos!
