This place was amazing!! I went for my first tattoo and Shaun, the owner, and Ariel, who did my tattoo, were sooo understanding. Shaun talked to me and helped me calm down a lot without realizing it and Ariel said we could go at my pace since I was extremely nervous and told both of them. Ariel told me I could ask for a minute whenever I needed. My tattoo came out AMAZING and I'm overly obsessed with it. Already recommended the place to a friend and will definitely be coming back!

I came across Purgatory Tattoo Co. On Facebook and sent them a message, within minutes I had a response and was in the shop within the hour getting mine and my fiances tattoos. Very clean and friendly environment, all artists welcomed us with a smile and made our experience that much better. We will definitely be scheduling for more work.

Everr since I was young I wanted to get a tattoo. Although I’ve never been a fan of needles the thought of one moving that quickly scared me. When I first arrived I was greeted by Melissa who I made an appointment with to get my tattoo, she was very welcoming and professional and when we went to her station I told her I was nervous and she helped calm me down. The tattoo I wanted had some detail to it and she did an absolutely amazing job. All my friends love it and I love it as well, Melissa made my very first tattoo experience memorable and enjoyable and I’ll definitely be returning soon to get more done. Everyone is friendly and the prices are so unbeatable 10/10 I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a tattoo or piercings because they are all so professional and amazing artists!

Shaun “G.I.G” just did a piece on me and as a heavily tattooed individual I have to say I couldn’t be more impressed. This is my 14th tattoo and I’ve never had a tattoo heal and look IDENTICAL to the day it was done. I have a beautiful bright fall inspired lantern on my forearm that I wish I could post in this review. The shop is so clean you could eat off of the floors. The prices are unbeatable, remember though you pay for the quality. Shaun was on time and ready to go for my appointment which was also a luxury as I’m used to my previous artist sleeping in and being an hour late to our evening appointments. As long as Shaun is willing to tattoo me I will continue to use him as my artist. Could not be happier with the experience! Go get stuck in purgatory, you won’t regret it.

Always a welcoming vibe. Everyone who works here is so friendly while still maintaining such a professional work place. Really impressed by how clean and kept up the shop is! My tattoos are always being complimented on the color even after a couple years. The quality produced is honestly top notch and I highly recommend checking this place out :)

Setup was very professional. Gave me a Free consultation to verify my piercing request is possible anatomically. But the price quoted was higher than Cold River Tattoo & Piercing.
I first called to find out how much piercing would cost but I was asked to take a evaluation appointment to make sure the piercing is possible, I was not told the price though.

It’s the only place I go to get all my work done. Shaun is the best. All the staff are so friendly and it feels like home. Very talented staff and professional, your a fool to go anywhere else but here.

I loveeee coming here , the first time Skyler just helped me put my nose ring back in because I was struggling so hard just to get it back in , I ended up coming in with a thumb tack in my nose and she helped me right away and yesterday I got my belly button piercing done ( I’m very scared to get piercings cause I don’t like pain) but Kay Kay and Skylar assured that I was gonna be fine and Kay Kay even held my hand. That was very sweet of Kay Kay to do that cause I don’t think many people in a tattoo parlor would do that lol and my piercing came out great and it wasn’t painful at all
