Virginia Beach Ink Tattoo and Piercing Studio

I've come here for all my piercings, and I've had an awesome experience each time. The front staff always answers my questions and are never rude, there is one girl that always has a snooty look but she is polite, and efficient. I usually prefer Kat to do my piercings, but whoever does it does a fine job. They make it comfortable and quick, and they do it right the first time. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get a piercing done!

Got my first piercing here, it was a daith. They did an amazing job, we’re very sweet and helpful, and the actual piercing was quick, clean, and not that painful. I would highly recommend Shimp to anyone! It healed very fast (fully within 3 months) and never got infected or anything like that. Love the facility overall. Definitely going back!

All the staff was very helpful and inviting. The process was super easy anx they gave really good instructions on how to take care of my piercing.

Got tatted by Barry and he did an AMAZING job. I love my tattoo so much. The place was clean, great service and if I could give this place 10 stars I definitely would. I 100% recommend going to this place.

Very quick if you're looking for a walk in piercing. I spent about 20 minutes here. Got my nostril pierced and they used nickel jewelry which caused me to break out with oozing blisters and rashes all over my face, neck and body. Went back to the piercer to show him the super red and irritated piercing after 2 weeks of cleaning it and he told me to just keep cleaning it and he recommended a product to me that they sold. I didn't realize it was an allergic reaction until TWO MONTHS after having these terrible rashes and I fell ill and the blisters all got infected. Also went with a friend to get his septum pierced and the piercer pierced it so crooked, it was visibly crooked from any angle you looked at it, so we went back in and they removed it and said it was only crooked because of the way his nose is (uhh okay..?), he paid with card and tipped before the piercing and they said in order to get his money back, he had to go through court. Couldn't even give him his tip back!! Terrible service and very unprofessional. Cheap piercings but at what cost??? NO piercing shop should be piercing with nickel! Many people have allergies to it. Will not be going back or recommending them. Also I might add it is very concerning that they don't allow anyone to come into the room with you when you are getting pierced. Very sketchy.

I got a tattoo by Dorsey here, today. Very awesome, very impressed. It was professional and fun and I'm going back to him to get more work done! Thank you Dorsey!!

While vacationing in Virginia Beach I wanted a tattoo to remember my trip and I looked up shops in the area and decided to try this shop out. Josh was awesome and took me as a walk-in. Super clean shop, and very inviting and friendly staff. My tattoo only took about a half hour and Josh chatted with me the entire time making my experience super relaxing. Would highly recommend this shop. Thank you again to the shop and Josh from a satisfied Vermont customer.

best piercing experience i’ve ever had!!! super nice and clean. I got my vertical labret done today and I forgot to ask for the piercers name but he did an amazing job and was super cool! thank you guys! <3

I went to set up as tattoo. What a waste of time. The artist booked an appointment for 11:30 on a specific day. The artist till the night before confirmed the appointment. The morning of, I get a message saying he realized he overbooked the time and can’t do the INK. Not only did the artist cancel but made no effort in returning to find a solution. I don’t recommend this place and they wasted my day on vacation above away from family as the family had planned their day and next in the morning. I believe this place is very unprofessional and have no care for the clients. I wasted my time am week waiting for this in to happen to only not happen.
