I visited Bay Street Tattoo back in late July after pretty recently deciding to get a nose piercing with my friend. I had absolutely no idea where I wanted it or what style I wanted, but Sherri was patient with me as I decided and walked me through the options, offering her advice on what would be best. She kept steady and cheerful conversation throughout the whole process, calming absolutely any nerves ever and geeking out with me over Harry Potter :)
In the end, I was given a natural cleaning solution and told to come back if I had any issues. I was returning home to Florida the next day, so returning wasn’t an option, but it healed perfectly and i have had no need to return since!! I have also been told how perfectly it was placed many times, and that’s all on her!
Thank you for making my first (non-ear) piercing as quick, enjoyable, and painless as possible!

Went to Bay Street tattoo for the first time this week. Walt did my tattoo, I had a meeting to describe what I wanted (fine line 4444 in gothic print, not too crazy) and he totally nailed it. He understood my vision and I am SO happy with the final product. It was also very modestly priced! Overall very good experience and I will be back!

My girlfriend went in for a nose piercing and two additional ear piercings. I’m pretty sure our whole time in there was under 15 minutes. Very friendly and relaxed staff, clean shop and comfortable waiting area.

Absolutely AMAZING service! Sheri is a very sweet lady, and very skilled! My piercings were done quick and easy, and she gave a lot of good aftercare tips. Very clean and calm environment. I'll definitely be back!

I just had the most wonderful experience earlier today! I went to get more piercings done and the staff were incredible. Super patient and thoughtful and were flexible when I changed some of my ideas. Couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Sheri is an amazing piercer. I came in with mismatched existing piercings and with her expertise we were able to create two balanced ears using new and old piercings! Everything is super clean and pleasant!

I had an initial tattoo consult appt in mid-November. I wanted to move forward with the next appt, so Walt gave me his email to directly contact him to set this up, saying that I should be able to get in by December, when I was hoping to. I'm not sure about their turnaround time with emails...but after about 3 weeks, I got zero response to either of my emails or voicemail. Maybe there's a better contact method for this place? But after being given the email I should contact Walt at, I'm confused and disappointed by how my request was not responded to, even after I attended the initial appointment. Too bad - I was excited to try this place out for my first tattoo, after seeing all the great reviews.

I had an amazing first tattoo experience with Walt. He is not only an amazing and detail oriented artist, but a really cool dude. 6 hour tattoo and no awkward pauses. Dude is a pure professional, and gives you a solid therapy session on top of his artwork. I plan on coming back for my next, and will be sure to recommend him to my body art fan friends.

This is the best experience I’ve ever had with a piercer! Sheri is so personable and makes you comfortable through the whole process! I wouldn’t go to anyone else!

I came here to get my first ear piercing today and the experience was absolutely wonderful! The shop is very clean and welcoming. Sheri took care of me and was incredibly kind and thoughtful. Getting the piercing was extremely fast and professional. She made sure to show me where she planned on piercing my ear prior to doing so to insure it was where I liked it to be.
I told her to use her best judgement, as I trusted her more than me, and she moved it a tiny more to put it in the perfect spot. The piercing was quick and painless. To wrap up, she did a great job informing me on the aftercare procedures. 100% recommend!
