Empire of Ink Tattoo & Piercing

Came in to setup an appointment for a sleeve, 20 minutes before my appointment I had an emergency and had to reschedule. They said if I didn't reschedule within a 2 day period, I forfeit my deposit, designs, everything just because of an emergency. They didn't once suggest rescheduling for the same time. DO NOT USE THEM

Daughter got her 3rd piercing for both ears, a bit pricey but excellent job and clean facilities, staff was helpful and kind.

Amber was absolutely amazing. I brought my Austin adult son there to get his ears pierced. She understood his special needs on communication and talked him through every step. She was patient and kind. Would recommend her for any piercing needs

What are the best tattoo shops I have visited in a very long time. Excellent customer service. Excellent line work. Excellent attention to detail.

Always a pleasant and comfortable experience in this shop, whether I’m going for a piercing or tattoo. Everyone here is professional and easy to work with. Thanks, Empire team! 🖤

Miranda was great!! She was super sweet fast and and did a great job!!! The shop was very Clean and everyone in there made sure I was completely comfortable before and after my piercing... I will not use anyone but them... 10 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️ for me

Beyond an artist from here named miguel “hope i spelled that correctly my guy” giving me a solid tattoo and my ex a very solid cover up. I had a tattoo that I really wasn’t happy with from someone working a different shop and I knew I need it it covered. They have a reputation for quality and I’ve gotten nice work done there so I reached out to John the owner and he gave me a cover up tattoo that has honestly changed my outlook on what a quality piece of art is. I went from having something I’d hide and show no one to something I got tons of positive feedback on and more than that I’m proud to have on my body. It’s also a great vibe. I had a session that needed breaks I felt welcome and enjoyed every second of hanging out with staff. If you’re in Arkansas and you want what I’d consider a step above professional quality work and overall just a a good time hanging out with the crew there you won’t be disappointed. The only negative that’s not a negative is you will catch the bug and be inspired for more ink the second you walk out. Just understand these guys are passionate and professional. They’re not here to just to give you tattoo they’re here to give you body art that you’ll be proud of for as long as your living. To say I look forward to coming back is an understatement. If you want a flash tat go for it! And if you want a bada$$ piece of art by artist who take pride in their work come get a quality piece of art on you this is the spot

Dylan was amazing! The staff was great and I’ll be back!!!

My visit for a nose peircing was quick and professional . The shop was very clean and the staff , amazing. 5 stars all the way around ! Thanks and I will be back to get some ink for sure !

Amber is a fantastic piercer—I was super nervous about getting my nose pierced, and she was not only educational, but understanding as well. She walked me through the process, and gave me very realistic expectations of what to expect. She did the exact thing for my friend, as well. 5/5 great person and piercer.

Clean, friendly, and overall a great atmosphere. Was able to get my left ear pierced with no trouble at all. They also provide a nice informative packet which tells you how to properly clean it, ect. Most likely gonna come back for a tattoo at some point. Knew it was the right place when I walked in, and re-runs of "The Office" were playing on the T.V. in the lobby.

Super nice and professional. I've gotten 3 and will get more piercings from here

Got my ears pierced by Crystal and she talked me through the whole process. Nice people.

Beautiful work done by artist Dylan Poston

I got a large tattoo here about 3 years ago, and absolutely love it! Well fast forward to last week, I came in as a “walk in”. I wanted a small tattoo, and the front desk lady got me a quote, but was unsure exactly when she could get me in. I got there about 2pm, she asked the artist for an estimated time and he said an hour or 2. I went home then called back to see if he was ready, and then he apparently had an appointment to do another tattoo by this time… the front desk said “I promise we’ll get you in today”… I didn’t get a call for the rest of the day. I felt my small tattoo was just pushed aside. But I’m sure if I wanted another big tattoo that cost more money, they could have made time for me. It’s unfortunate because I used to talk this place up; there are some amazing pieces that come out of here. I’m not sure if I’ll come back though, after this last experience.

They were super professional and I was nervous to do color but Johnny convinced me and im so happy he did. He did such a gorgeous piece and 10/10 would go back! I also got my medusa and nose pierced here about 6 months ago and it healed perfectly. would go back for another.

Went in for a walk in piercing and everyone was super friendly and professional! Masks are required currently and everything was very clean and my piercer was professional and I'm in love with my new piercing. Even on a Saturday night, they got me in and finished quickly. Highly recommend!

My nose piercing the 2nd day began embedding in my nose. Obviously it was too tight when it was not touched or anything, I had to pay $22 to fix. There are cheaper places that do it correctly on the first day.

I went to have 4 piercing at once done. Tragus, conch, daith and rook. Amber did all four of these. And this was under the supervision of supposedly the best piercer there, Crystal. My daith was pierced crooked and automatically was pushed out the next week at work due to swelling from the angle. Then she pierced my rook too thin and only let me know hours later on Facebook when she was feeling guilty. She made sure to keep my jewelry so I couldn’t go anywhere else to get this done. Then I went to go get my tragus looked at by a professional and they said I would never be able to wear a ring or anything but A stud. And it would be a piercing length bar that would be a pain to always order. So basically I’m out three piercings (about 100 bucks) and the only thing they had to tell me was if I had a known before, because I’m the expert right, they would have given me my refund. But they basically told me to screw myself on the money I’m out. Please do not go to this place, you’ll be paying more at another but you’ll get what you pay for

They don't know how to take out a Medusa piercing after saying they did over the phone. They basically lied. Never coming back or recommending this place to anyone
