Excellent service, clean and friendly. Got my 7th tattoo today, first time with Jake. He has a very gentle touch, efficient, and really listened to what I wanted. I've never liked an artist well enough to go back twice but we definitely will for him. 👍

Sam was a total professional and helped me stay calm through the whole process of drawing up my idea to the last of the colors. Thank you so much Sam. 😊

I had a piercing done here earlier this year. I had a daith in my right ear to help with frequent migraines. I guess they were really busy that day, because my piercer (I don’t remember his name) seemed like he was in a rush, and was very rude. I literally almost walked out crying but was just happy to have it done. During the actual piercing procedure, he never asked (for deep breaths, breathing, counted), or any sort of warning. I got confused about how he wanted me to lay down on the table and asked "the left side?" and he said "yeah- the left side. I've been doing this (x) years I think I know what I'm talking about". I literally layed down on the table, he swabbed my ear with the cleaner, marked it and immediately pierced through without warning. I grabbed at his arm reflexively and he told me to “let go” like he was offended I had reached out. As he was handing me the sheet at the end I tried to ask him a couple questions about after care, even explaining that I wasn’t from that area and where I’m from there aren’t a lot of piercing shops. I tried to explain my left ear daith had rejected, and that’s why I’d come in to have the right done; and ask for any sort of tips if I started having trouble with the healing process once I went home (somewhat sensitive skin). He said “you won’t have any trouble if you just wash it with saline three times a day like the instructions say”. He handed me the paper, a sticker for the shop, and left without another word to go tattoo someone.
Now I have a second rejecting daith piercing, and no nearby piercer. Thanks for the help.

Got a really great tattoo from Pablo, but got a mid piercing at a later date. Didn’t land on the mark made for the location of the piercing but I think it’s still okay. Mixed experience here, but will update if that changes with a future visit

Super over priced. Wanted $200 for a 20 minute tattoo. If they didnt want to do it they should just say so.

Got two tats by them. Not a bad place great people great artists. This is the place to go for a tattoo when in Columbia. Friendly place, super nice. Pricing is a bit inconsistent, maybe that's just the artist Idk but what do I know about running a tat parlor.

The ghost and script are a year old. I got the Pisces watercolor symbol today. I made sure to have Carlos do my work both times because in 2020 I saw a review for his work and had a gut feeling. Believe me, it was worth feeling a little weird asking for someone by name I’d never seen. His line work is incredible, with the script I argued for thin lines and small script for a long time before we found a compromise, which you can see on my forearm. I was beyond thrilled with the result. He did the ghost on my ankle the same day. A year later, I made sure to request for him to do my shoulder tattoo. I was indecisive and unprepared as it was an impulsive choice, and Carlos was patient and worked with me along the way. He helped me come up with a design I liked that was within my budget. During the tattooing process he was quick, polite, and easy to talk to. My friend, who also got a tattoo, and I chatted throughout the process. 10/10 tattooing skills and professionalism.

I went and got my ear pierced yesterday with a friend. They were very professional and walked me through it all. Very polite as well
