Freaks on Broadway

RACIST! I went in looking for a specific design and was referred to Caleb, who’s demeanor is very rude. He showed me one variation. Which I revised. He then went in the back and drew a different design, he came out with a racist “caricature” of a person of color. With VERY EXAGGERATED FEATURES. Like so obvious it was over the top! Will never go to this shop again, and I will not support any business who upholds this kind of behavior.

Cara was absolutely amazing! She pierced my nose and my friend's conch. She was so friendly and very gentle. And she took the time to answer all the questions I had afterwards. It was 100% worth the wait. I'm from out of town but visit frequently and I would absolutely come back here.

They don't do appointments for piercings, it's first come first serve. So be prepared to wait on busy days. We went in on a Saturday and had to wait an hour and a half.

James did an amazing job! He drew my artwork, based upon my request. Thirty minutes later, I had this amazing gift! Excellent price! Great staff! My first tattoo at age 42 and I'm so pleased with his work! Thank you, James!!

Great group of people that work here! Been here for both my tatoos and nose ring and would deffinetly recommend it! I got my nose pierced here over 7 years ago and of course i forgot some of the info they tell you in the beginning...... i walked in with questions and an issue with it and the guys where able to educate me in some stuff i was doing wrong and were so sweet to help me for free!! I walked away feeling much smarter and very happy! lol! Thank you so much!! You guys rock!

NOSE piercing review. I don’t recommend going here for a piercing. I went here for my SECOND nose piercing. The price is affordable and the staff was friendly . But I had to take my nose piercing out because it KEPT getting infected. I did NOT have this issue with my first piercing (I got it in Michigan though so I had to go elsewhere now that I’m in KC).

Also .. they only pierce with a specific kind of jewelry . They don’t do flat backs. They make you use the L shaped one then say u can change it later. Again.. this was not an issue with my first piercing . I was able to get a flat back .. it healed just fine with no issues. I was given proper aftercare instructions etc. The piercer I had (in Michigan) I could tell was VERY knowledgeable. She knew what she was doing. I wasn’t given aftercare instructions here or anything. The fact that it kept getting infected makes me question the jewelry.
Just because someone has a piercing already does not mean you shouldn’t give aftercare instructions etc. The staff is nice but they could use improvement in the piercing department. Now I have to find someone else to pierce my nose again 😩🙄

Spontaneous trip with my friend. We got small matching tattoos and they turned out GREAT. Super small and dainty. Caleb was awesome- but 10000% upped the price last minute. He’s very monotone so our personalities clashed a bit. I don’t regret it at all, but I would never come back. I’ll stick to the place and artist I have back home.

I haven't had a tattoo in quite some time went there to get me a tattoo it was a wonderful experience I didn't have to wait long my tattoo artist was very gentle and very friendly it was a very nice environment I definitely will be going back.

I’ve came here multiple times on Sundays for piercings and have never had a bad experience. Whatever piercer they have come in on Mondays showed up to work at 4:30 pm after we were told she would be in at 2. We have waited here for over an hour waiting to get pierced, and we were told it would be a 20 minute wait. Absolutely never coming in here again after this experience. Super unprofessional on not only the piercers part for being late, but for the girl behind the counter for not being honest with us on the wait time. I also am witnessing a tattoo artist be very aggressive with people wanting a tattoo because they don’t speak English. Absolutely unprofessional, ignorant, and disrespectful. Would not recommend coming in to this shop.

I was super nervous to get my nose and helix pierced, but everyone was super patient with any questions I had. They only do walk-ins, but I was able to stop by over my lunch hour without issue.

I really like how the piercings turned out and would highly recommend!

DO NOT USE THIS SHOP I came by here 2 years ago payed a cash deposit with James who worked here at the time he was rude did nothing but talk down at what I wanted, I said I was open minded but he was very negative, I gave him a chance to draw a design he later sent me and it was absolutely terrible. Then I had a person recommend Caleb, I then found he worked at freaks I came in again with an open mind told him my ideas and yet again dull attitude, rude, this shop has a PR problem big time completely negative environment what a disgrace for a tattoo shop.
