Onyx is honestly a great place to get a tattoo and I am very happy with the 1 I got there. My only complaint is that I have tried to get 3 tattoos done there and they have only done 1. On to of that, the last request that I made was just completed ignored as I didn’t even get a courtesy email saying they couldn’t do it after 3 months. If you can get in I would recommend the shop but good luck.

Onxy helped me with a cover up. I had this stupid tattoo that I got on my 18th birthday and they transformed it into a work of art with no evidence of my 18 year old self. They also helped finish a tattoo done years ago and that one is also beautiful.

On the anniversary of me and my wife’s baby’s passing we went to see Dustin at Onyx Ink, and he was amazing. I have no tattoos but this was my wife’s 4th, and as I’m writing this she’s on the phone saying “any future ink, that’s where I’m going”, so it seems she too is happy. He even came in on his day off, maybe due to the baby’s passing, and only charged is the lower end of his quote. Also it was early and I’m a grump in the morning, and the leather couch was amaaaaazing and I straight up passed out for the whole 3 hours. My wife is also sort of skittish around strangers, esp men due to some past trauma, and she is told me she was incredibly comfortable with Dustin. Very professional and kind. 6 stars outta 5 sir - thank you!

Dustin is amazing! I had such a great experience getting my first tattoo ever here. The studio itself is a really neat place, and very sanitary. I felt super comfortable the whole time, and Dustin was incredible to work with. He went above and beyond with drawing out my custom tattoo and making sure it fit my arm perfectly and that I liked the positioning. He was also great to talk to, and just made the whole appointment so fun and relaxing. Will definitely be coming back!

Had my first tattoo appointment recently, and while I admit to having no basis of comparison, I was very impressed.
A comfortable little studio with talented artists. Lauren was mine, and she explained the whole process to me very clearly. Once I decide on a second, I'll be back.

So, the location is great, people great, piercing went fine....my problem actually came after . Just a heads up for others getting pierced and maybe something the business could take it to consideration: if the piercing jewelry gets tugged even a little from the back, it's enough pressure to pull the head of the piercing jewelry through the healing canal. And because it is a jewelry head it will also tear right through and cause bleeding. Had to unfortunately tug the stud through the back of the piercing, take the jewelry apart, and repush it through. So my healing is probably going to be a little messed up. I would definitely suggest not to use the default studs. I would even suggest the company looking into slight larger stud heads as well. I do feel that if it had been larger it would have stopped the jewelry and prevented it ripping through the healing piercing. (More info: this happened starting my fifth week post piercing. There was zero swelling at the time. The back simply got caught and ripped the entirety of the stud through the piercing leaving only the head stuck inside the canal at the rear of the lobe piercing. I stand by suggesting a slightly larger variation of the stud heads to the company for the future.)

Haley is amazing!! I’ve gotten my nose pierced here & came back for a cartilage ear piercing. My nose healed beautifully and I couldn’t have asked for better. Haley is quick, professional, and always does an amazing job. The studio itself is clean, well lit, and has an awesome interior. I will absolutely keep coming back for all my piercing needs. This place is awesome!

I have been coming to Ashley for the past four years and I will not go anywhere else. Ashley truly cares for her clients and it’s like sitting down with an old friend every time you’re in her chair! Her prices are very modest and she will work with you until you’re absolutely happy with your tattoo!What’s not to love!

I went to Onyx for a septum piercing. I had read the reviews and asked friends who I know have been there. It all seemed good. So I went in with my friend and they pierced my septum. Once they handed me the mirror, I asked them to close the barbell a little more. When they handed the mirror back it looked crooked. I asked about it but I was told it could be due to swelling. I said 'ok' paid and left. However, I was nervous and anxious about it being pierced crooked. So, I did some research online (found out that it should look straight immediately after piercing and that swelling and crookedness come later), I also contacted a piercer I had been to before for a second opinion and he said it was a crooked septum. After that, I got in to have the septum removed. They were really nice about it, removed it with no charge, and offered a refund, I didn't even have to ask. The piercer was very sorry.
Now, this place has gotten good reviews, plus I have seen correctly done piercings on my friends from this place. Perhaps what happened to me was a fluke, but nonetheless, my piercing was crooked. Go here for a septum piercing at your own risk.

Worked with Alisha for my stunning foxglove tattoo. She delivered exactly what I was looking for and better than I could have imagined. She made me feel extremely comfortable about asking for little tweaks to the design before the tattooing started and nestled it in perfectly amongst my existing tattoos. It looks crisp and clean and it’s obvious why there was a wait to get in an appointment! Well worth it! The tattoo is exactly what I was looking for and I can’t recommend her enough. I also had a my first piercing done with Haley and she really put me at ease! The whole process was quick, friendly, and professional! I felt incredibly comfortable at Onyx and the piercings are super even and healing great! You couldn’t find a better shop in Burlington for your piercing or tattoo needs! From what I’ve seen, every artist on the staff creates fantastic work so you can’t go wrong!
