This tattoo/piercing shop is very clean and has a friendly ambience!
I got my nose pierced by Dave. They were so kind and professional throughout the whole process. Dave's explanations were thorough (through the steps of getting pierced and aftercare) and made sure I was feeling okay. I am definitely coming for future piercings and recommending this place to my fam and friends!

My ol lady had her nose ring done here, you can order new piercings for around $20 by talking to the piercing artist, who by the way was amazing, very polite, nice, and comforting. The energy of the place is immaculate! Reptiles, plants, laughter and smiles kept me company in the business as I waited for her to finish up what she was wanting. I really recommend this place to anyone wanting to have some body modifications but having an uncomfortable feeling about who is doing it and any other issues that may arise. Say like my ol lady loves that they have a female artist because she is nervous for men to be around certain areas that she would like art work performed. Excellent service and environment!

Dave the piercer took all the precautions necessary, he explained everything very well and If I would need another piercing I would definitely go to him

The Ink Elephant is a badass spot you need to check out if you are considering getting a tattoo. Zach, @lilhoodyshark on Instagram, has done 4 of mine and killed it each time. He is a great artist who will make you feel comfortable and will make your ideas come to life. Check out some of his work!

Best tattoo experience. They are welcoming chill and great eye for what will look good. I reached out to Danny Soto on Instagram (@unbread) and had an appointment set up the very next week. Professional gave great advice and great vibe. Will be going back for at least two more tattoos. Highly recommend

I went to get my first tattoo here and the service was amazing and the tattoo is exactly how I wanted it and I got it from Zach and he was amazing very fine lines and work is amazing. I would recommend this place and point them to Zach, to any one of my friends or family member.

I went in to go with a girl named genesis about a year ago already, I will give her props for my beautiful tattoos but I just wanna say for one the ink she used has my skin itching every now in then so maybe that is my fault I didn’t check in with the ink she uses…also I had set and PAID a deposit for an appointment with her for another tattoo went in and thought she had drew out what I wanted…didn’t do that…instead recreated a whole other stencil of something I DID NOT ASK FOR. i said I didn’t like it and so she “tried” to work on doing the stencil I asked for and then gave up on it in like 10 minutes…and said she couldn’t that she would reschedule another day for me to get what I wanted done…instead of refunded me my deposit and admitting she couldn’t do it, she had me did a whole run around to reschedule me and never did my tattoo…STOLE MY DEPOSIT and to this day has never reached out to do my tattoo…very disappointing…and very upsetting. I went in and made a complaint with someone, said they would reach out to me and get me my tattoo and never did. i will never be going back here or recommending this place again.
