We are visiting from Florida and myself and my boyfriend both got tattoos, he also got his septum pierced. Pricing and level of professionalism was fantastic! I recently snagged my nose ring and got a bump right by my ring, I’ve tried everything for the passed two weeks to get rid of it. (I did not get it pierced here) right when we got there I figured I’d ask her advice, she gave me a powder right away. Also explain what it was and reassured me that it would go away. I’ve used the powder for one night and have seen a huge difference! I’ve been to a lot of different tattoo and piercing places and this one by far was the best. Definitely recommend and when we come back we will definitely come here. Read Less

I had a great experience at this tattoo shop! Kathleen is a great piercer. She made me feel calm about the piercing I was going to get. She explains the process before and during the procedure. She is kind and very professional. Definitely recommend this shop! Read Less

Went in a few weeks ago to get a last minute rook piercing and I am so happy with the result! I had made an appointment on a Sunday and due to traffic was 15 minutes late- I called 5 mins before my appointment to let them know, worried they would be upset, but they were SO nice and said to take my time! That really started off the great experience. I went with my friend but didn't mention that when I made the appointment and they kindly squeezed her in! Kathleen was so cool and really helpful with the whole process. She explained everything about each piercing before hand and exactly what she was going to do, and everything about the after care. She made sure we were 100% comfortable with everything she was doing and really took her time (other piercers I've been to seemed to be rushed like they don't care). She asked if we had any questions and answered all of our questions eagerly! Although it's only been 3 weeks I can already tell it's healing great, and the placement is PERFECT. Thank you Lucky 7!

An excellent experience! The staff is so friendly, responsive, and experienced. After contacting Kathleen through the Yelp App, she responded immediately and we set up an appointment. When we arrived they immediately asked if we wanted water and the piercing room was prepped and ready to go. Kathleen was so helpful with explaining the process and aftercare, and even sent us home with a little aftercare kit and handout! Love this place and recommend it to everyone! If you are in the area and are looking for a piercing or tattoo, definitely check them out! Read Less

I have had a 75% reduction in migraines after getting my daith piercing. My friend was in Tahoe and decided to get a daith piercing for her daughter to help with her migraines. Kathleen was knowledgeable, kind and took her time marking exactly the right spot to pierce. She made the experience painless and positive. I found some unique jewelry for my daith to create a completely different look for myself. Read Less

When I lived in tahoe I loved this place, as any local does. It is literally THE place to get any piercings. Everyone runs there the second they turn 18 or begs their mom to take them to get their nose pierced because they're going into high school now. And I used to have the same adoration. Very clean, sanitary, seems professional (enough).....but then as I got older and left the little bubble of tahoe I realized the reality of their piercings. I went to a renown piercer in the great city of Portland Or. I had the question of: why does my septum piercing hang so low? Upon looking at it, what does he find? That the "skilled" piercer who did it at none other than Lucky Seven pierced through cartilage that WASN'T EVEN MY SEPTUM! Thinking this is just perhaps a random error I call my friend who went there to get her nose pierced. She has had issues with it since she got it and when she went to a different piercer with great reviews in Reno she was told it was PIERCED CROOKED! I am mortified thay they are considered "professionals".....I guess you can't expect anything else if you're too desperate and settle for something close, but please people: just do yourself the favor and just drive to reno.

Kathleen is a great piercer! Friendly and prompt service. She always makes me feel very relaxed and comfortable when I'm there! The jewelry is inexpensive, high quality and nickel free so it doesn't give me an allergic reaction. Give this place a try if your in town :) Read Less

Kathleen was the best piercer I've ever met. I went in expecting to get one nipple pierced and it was so easy and nearly pain free I decided to get the second one and then persuaded my best friend to get hers done as well and she agreed it was the easiest piercing ever. Super fast, super clean, and she's super good at calming your nerves and making u feel at home! Plus the adorable goody bag and care kit at the end was a plus! Read Less

What a wonderful place to get a tattoo. Great people. Very reasonable prices. I was able to get my tattoo on the spot and I truly love the work that was done on my forearm! I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Tahoe. Read Less

Random road trip to Tahoe led me to Lucky 7 Tattoo and Piercing for a Daith piercing. Kathleen was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend coming here for any piercing. She has an abundant supply of jewelry and stocked for all your piercing needs! Plus she sends you home with essential oils for healing! I will definitely travel the 2 hours again for my next piercing. Plus Kathleen volunteers helping Elephants overseas, absolutely amazing! Super rad chick! Thanks �� Read Less

My husband and I decided to get ring tattoos on our 1 year anniversary (cheesy, I know) and neither of us had any other tattoos. We booked our appointment impulsively and then as we were doing more research on ring tattoos...we started to question our decision. We showed up to our appointment anyway and talked through our concerns with Russell. He was completely honest with us about the possibilities of blow out, fading, etc. but yet very reassuring with his ability to do the task. We are about 6 weeks out and the tattoo looks just as good as it did when he finished it. He was so professional and took his time to make it our first tattoo perfect. Would highly recommend Russell to anyone! Read Less

I have to givwe Lucky 7 Tattoo and Piercing all stars BECAUSE, I felt absolutely no pain when getting my tragus pierced.Kathleen is so warm, inviting, and reassuring. She explained each step of the procedure and gave me the only direction to keep breathing. I love my piercing, it's so cute. She provided me with the instructions and items to keep my jewelry clean and skin from developing an infection. (although there are always no 100% guarantees, if one follows the instructions, it diminishes the chances of developing an infection)I recommend Kathleen for your body piercing needs any time! Things have changed since the early '90's and Kathleen is on top of the latest research and development. Read Less

Kathleen is awesome! Got my cartilage and side ear re-pierced for an awesome price. Kathleen has such a funky-cool personality: she was friendly and made me feel at ease while piercing me. And she called me kitty :o) Will definitely be back if I ever decide to get another piercing and in the area! Read Less

I needed help getting my new jewelry  back in after taking it out so I stopped by this place. The gal was really nice and helpful and even gave me some ointment to help my poor nose! I will definitely be going back here when I get a next itch for a piercing. Thanks! Read Less

Seriously the friendliest and cleanest and best smelling tattoo place! We get tattooed every time we travel and have been to a bunch of tattoo studios. Staff super nice and Travis did our tattoos for us! We had our wedding date done and though a small job we weren't treated crappy like at some other places! Large selection of piercing jewelry as well if your into that! The best care package you leave with as well, with ointment, stickers and a free piece of piercing jewelry! I scored on a new nose stud ;)  Glad we found them on YELP, reviews on point! Thanks again. Read Less

I've been exclusively tattooed here since I turned 18. Russell is an absolute master at his craft. I live 8 hours away, and wouldn't hesitate to travel 400x the distance to continue the tradition... Amazing guys, great work!Oh yeah... The piercing! Kathleen is amazing, a pioneer in piercing. Her "bedside manner" will make you feel at ease every time. Great work, very clean, always professional ... Keep it up. Read Less

I got my nose pierced today by Chris and I love it!!  I can't rave about her enough.  I've been contemplating my nostril piercing for a long time, and I came in with a lot of questions.  Originally I was going to do it at a place in the Bay Area, but after spending about half an hour talking to Chris, she won me over!  She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and kind.  She marked my nose, and I walked around with it for about 2 hours.  I had already made my decision, but wanted to be sure.The piercing was quick and pain was about a 3 or 4 on a scale of 10.  I've had dental appointments that hurt more!  She talked me through the whole thing, and was very patient as I picked out the color rhinestone I wanted.  She's very professional, clean and thorough.  It was done in about 2 min!  Best part is, their cleaning solution is a blend of essential oils.  No harsh chemicals that irritate the skin.  I'm a natural girl myself, so I love that they give you a healthy, non toxic way to take care of your piercing.It should take about 2-6 months to heal, and then I will switch to some kind of gold and gemstone BVLA stud that I have my eyes on.  Until then, I love my little purple rhinestone.  I'm so happy I chose Chris as my piercer, she's amazing!!  If youre thinking of getting pierced here, I highly recommend Chris :) Read Less

Chris is awesome! Went in on Valentine's Day and got my nose pierced! Yes they're open 7 days a week, so if you're feeling spontaneous, get to it. They're waiting!  She worked her ass off to get my previous nose piercing hole open, so I didn't have to wait for a fresh piercing to heal again! Success!Best part of just reopening the hole is I only had to pay for the jewelry. She worked her butt off because she's a sweet thang and wants to save her customers money! Of course, I tipped her! Anyways, overall a wonderful experience, plus the drive up from Carson City is beautiful! Read Less

If you want a clean, cool, and friendly place to get tattoed, this would be the spot!!! Last night my friend and I were exploring south lake when we decided to come up here and lucky for me, Russell was available to do two small tatts I wanted. I told him what I wanted and where. He was very honest with me and told me straight up how my tattoo placement was going to look and helped me change my mind and put them in spots I absolutely love. He was so friendly and personable. Not to mention his knowledge for tattoos and preparing you before of what it may feel like. The thing I appreciated a lot was how gentle Russell was in his tattooing. He didn't dig in like a lot of artists seem to like doing. The pricing was reasonable, they are dog friendly for friendly pups, and they were just straight up awesome. Russell did exactly what I wanted and I cannot wait to come back with my friend for her piece she wants. You know you have a great artist when he gets excited about a piece you want. Keep it up, Russell! :) Read Less

My wife and I got pierced by Chris and she was amazing. She took the time to explain the process and was sensitive to my nervousness. She makes sure that you walk out of there with a piercing you are happy with and she can be proud to say she did.I also really enjoy the oil mix that she uses for aftercare. Read Less

Have wanted to get my son's jersey number on me for a while. While on vacation this past week I drove by Lucky 7 on the way to the cabin I was staying at. I emailed them that evening and had a reply the next day. I was then texting to get more info on artist and design plans. Travis is the artist who helped me and he pretty much nailed the font and colors I was wanting. I was nervous as he didn't have a bio or photos to look at but by the time I walked out of there I knew that on my next vacation I'd more than likely hit Travis up to do more work. The shop and staff were all stellar. And they play good oldies vs the loud metal crap most do. Cheers to Lucky 7 and thanks for hooking up my kids number. Read Less

We walked in today and were instantly greeted by Chris with a friendly and professional demeanor. I got an orbital piercing and she was so helpful and very knowledgeable. She answered every question I had and was very aware and practiced good, safe hygiene.  I was pretty nervous and she calmed me down and made the experience very enjoyable and I was stoked on my new piercing. I absolutely love it! Not only did she answer questions about the piercing itself but was very thorough measuring my ear and making sure she used the right size jewelry on my ear. The shop was clean and well organized. It's a great location that's easy to get to! And the staff is very personable and professional. Read Less

My wife and I decided after 33+ years of marriage to get tattoos - we chose variations of the eternity symbols. Russell and everyone helped us transform what we wanted into our first tats. This place was clean and Russell hit the perfect level of explaining what was going on to us newbies. GREAT EXPERIENCE! Read Less

I came to Lucky 7 last weekend just as I was walking by while shopping with family and was immediately drawn to a cute little piercing and tattoo shop. I went in to find two very friendly girls that helped with questions and were very willing to help out in any way possible. You immediately felt very comfortable in the atmosphere there. The artists do AMAZING work. As seen in all these pictures!! I got a Lake Tahoe lake on my back thigh. Corey did my tattoo and he was so professional and a seriously chill guy. He made sure the lake was perfectly placed one my leg and redid the placement till it was done straight and correct.. my husband wants a half sleeve done and we live in the bay area Ca and he is willing to drive back up there for himself for his tattoo he wants!! I would highly highly recommend this tattoo shop!! 5 ☆☆☆☆☆ ! Read Less

This place is amazing!!! Stopped in for replacement jewelry while visiting Tahoe. First impression was that it was really clean and inviting. Super nice and knowledgeable staff.The jewelry selection is huge! I looked through the portfolios and the work is VERY impressive. I live in a large city that has lots of top notch tattooers and never expected to find that level of tattooing in such a small town. This shop is phenomenal no matter where you're from. Highly recommend! Read Less

My husband and I searched for years for a true tattoo artist, someone who could both refurbish my old tattoo and do my husband's tattoos. We attended many tattoo conventions and visited countless tattoo parlors looking for a true artist. A few years back, we, quite literally, stumbled onto Lake Monster Tattoo and Body Piercing. Reed, the owner and our tattooist, does amazing work! He is a truely talented artist and has a very clean shop. Check him out one time...you will not be disappointed!If you are into body piercing, you want to go there as well. Marrissa is incredible and our daughter and niece swear by her. Read Less

I have been to Lucky 7 ever since I was 14 and I have gotten all my piercings done by Kathleen. The way they tell you everything they are doing and why and what the feelings after might be I won't go anywhere else when i'm thinking about piercings and tattoos. Read Less

I am a multiple repeat customer of Lucky 7 tattoo. Any time I know I am going to be in the Reno or Tahoe area I always call and make an appointment. Myself or my wife usually are in need of artwork. I have learned over time that making an appointment is the best way to obtain thier services due to lucky 7s outstanding reputation. I have been to other shops and have not ever been greeted friendlier or treated better. It seems as though you are not only a customer, but a friend that has dropped by for a visit. The support staff at Lucky 7 is one of the best, they are well informed and helpful. The artists are informed , clean and ready and willng to help you with your drawing or create one for you.

Nerissa pierced my daughter's naval. I was so impressed with the their professionalism and the cleanliness of the entire place. I believe Nerissa changed her gloves once just while talking with us! She made sure both my daughter and I were comfortable and well informed. Even though we live four hours away, I will take my daughters only to Lake Monster. -Tamara Read Less

This is by far the best tattoo shop I have ever been to. I have been searching for a place to get my first tattoo and I went to 7 shops in the Sacramento area. Lucky 7 has the friendliest staff I have ever seen and very talented artists. Dan was awsome and my piece turned out better than I had hoped for! This shop is the only shop I will ever go for my ink work! Thanks guys for being perfect! Read Less
