I went here to get my septum pierced to find out their original piercer doesn't work here anymore but decided to get it done anyways. Big mistake. The girl pierced my septum crooked and incredibly low. I understand we're only human and mistakes happen. However, she gave no apology and wanted to re-pierce it. I declined and ended up finding the piercer I was originally looking for at a new place. Go here at your own risk. Read Less

Went in there to get my septum pierced and the girl had no work ethic at all. I went in her room and she pierced the septum so low & crooked! I should've walked out the minute I walked in, no kind greeting what so ever! I had to go to another parlor for them to take it out. They explained everything that was wrong with it. Thank god I didn't let it heal. Worst experience ever. Read Less

I tried to get a tattoo today I was the first one there after waiting 20 mins, there was a deal by Bobby "bluarmz" he complained about doing deals cus it attracts certain customers... but I think it attracts new ones to the shop. I even told my friend about it and she went and got it. But everything was fine until when i got the stencil on I asked if he could move it a bit over and he took it and completely moved it way over and way back. I would say I'm so sorry I liked it the first way you did it. He then said he didn't like my energy and he's gonna refuse service to me. I told him I wanted to be able to see my tattoo and he says "I have them I don't ever look at anymore" and first he would say things like it's okay it's what the customer wants and it will be on your skin forever so you can be picky... but then he disrespects me by saying it's my energy when he was the one in the bad mood and I was nothing but kind even when he refused service to me. It makes the shop look bad, I had a great experience with a tattoo artist there but he ended up quitting. Bobby also shaved me super hard and used super pigmented stencil that would not wipe off so he was just scraping at my skin. You could tell it was making him mad but he didn't want to show. He just made me feel bad for wanting my placement how I wanted, it's not my energy it's you not wanting to tattoo me, period. And he had to get on instagram and make a video about the situation.

I am very disappointed in the service of this establishment. Went to get my upper lip jewelry changed i was told to wait for a minimum of 6 months. Because i didn’t want to go all the way back to where i got it done i wanted to stay in town. That was a lie called the place where i had it done was told something different and i should had went with my first mind. I will never go back to this place and suggest you do that same ppl are lairs. I just my money wasn’t good enough or maybe he was to lazy to do it. 🖕🏿🖕🏿 Read Less

Best Tat shop in Stockton...Owner Helps local Veterans by letting them hold their monthly meetings for the Weed for Warriors Project..a project ive learned..thats significantly reducing the opioid crisis and the national suicide rate ( which is higher than their civilian counterparts) Read Less

Sonny is not a good tattoo artist my son was suppose to get a free touch up he calls back and now he wants a deposit and he was over charged for a cross  on his neck in the first place. The tattoo wasn't  done all that great and needed a touch up because of his doing the ink really faded but it's sad when we as customers put trust in so called experts they take advantage and do the bare minimum. so I will not be recommending anyone to go to him.

Sunny did the nAme for me, hella dope!! Bobby did the crown for me, super clean!!! I loveeeee my tattoo, both guys where hella cool, nice and the environment is hella cool!!! I love this place an will be back for more!!!! Read Less

Refused service over a simple star wars quote. I am prior service marine corps and have had tattoos all over the country and even internationally. I can't say that I have ever met a more rude group of people. Save yourself the time and energy and skip this place. If you can be so selective over a mere quote, clearly you're not about new cliental. Read Less

Holy Wan Kenobi is the best if you want color come to him♡ you won't be disappointed. I'll update with picks when my lower arm is complete. Photos of my upper arm is a amzing cover up i had a horrible tattoo that really needed to be covered and I knew it would be hard but Holy Wan Kenobi did a amazing a$$ job and executed it with perfection.

Went in to get a nose piercing but the piercer, Zombie, wasn't there. However they were so great and got ahold of him and he ended up coming in on his day off AND on SuperBowl Sunday! He was so great, has the best jewelry and technique that I've ever seen! He cares about his clients and is very professional. Read Less

Came here to get new jewelry for my double conch I have. Was greeted by the two people that did the piercings and was taken back. The guy was super nice and informative and I felt comfortable talking to him. However I do have to warn y'all. The jewelry is a bit pricey compared other shops. But it is top notch high grade jewelry. I have had this brand of jewelry in my other piercings tragus, triple helix and my first conch, for years with no issue. The girl that put the jewelry in was also super nice and friendly as well. I am def coming back to get my nose pierced.And the have APPLE PAY!! Read Less

If you're looking for a tattoo artist that does dope ass portraits, reasonable prices and is down to earth, hit up El Jerome. I just got my second portrait done by him yesterday and holy fuck I'm at a lost for words. Everyone always compliments the first one he did (my grandpa) and I'm sure as hell people are gonna recognize the Bruce Lee portrait he did yesterday. He is pretty speedy as well. Took 3 hours to finish my Bruce Lee portrait & 2 and a half for my grandpa. Everyone at the shop is down to earth and funny as shit. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Read Less

Jessie Witt is amazing!!! Super talented artist. I don't think he realizes how amazing he is. I think he's one of the best artists in Northern California! I am so grateful to come across his instagram page because he's the only artist I trust to tattoo me. He takes the time to really understand what it is I want and he comes up with the dopest designs! Jessie you're awesome. And shout out to Nick the manager too because he's pretty cool too Read Less

I came in last year and Zombie pierced my nose.So I went back last week and switched the earring out. They have many Top notch selections to choose from.

I have yet to be tattooed myself here but my frends have been tattooed and pierced here and I was with them during and I have also been visiting this location recently to talk to them about ideas I have and the service is great. I met Sonny before I knew about the shop and he was super nice so I checked out the shop. Denis is great especially with traditional tattoos as he has tattooed me before so I was excited to see him working here now. Zombie the piercer is also great. I got a piercing from him years ago and today he's very knowledgeable about placement and products. Definitely check this place out. They also have great portfolios online to save u a trip!

My experience at black rose tattoo was amazing!! I walked in, and was greeted by a very friendly environment. My artist went by the name of Holy. I had a horrible tattoo that needed a cover. I showed him a picture of something I wanted, and he redrew it and made it even better!! He was very gentle handed. It took 7 1/2 hour's, and we were there until 5 am. He wanted to make sure it looked perfect, and it did!! He gave me an amazing price, and amazing service!! I will definitely be going back to him for the rest of my work!! Thanks Holy, and black rose tattoo!! Read Less

I brought my friend with me to get my septum pierced and I was super relieved that I chose to come here for my piercing. They were very informative and made sure you knew they were gonna take care of you. It was such a chill atmosphere and I would def come here for any future piercings. They also have a wider variety of jewelry compared to most parlors in the valley.Also found out they can pierce anywhere on the body so there's that if any of you were wondering. Read Less

This place is awesome. First and foremost, they donate lunches for homeless adults and children every 3rd Saturday of the month. They are incredible people. The shop is very clean, which you love seeing in a tattoo shop. All of the artwork was great and the artists are even better. There is so much detail. We will be getting the rest of our tattoos here! Read Less

My first time here at Black Rose and I was very pleased with the entire experience. The shop is spacious and clean, with lots of wonderful art on the walls. Everyone is personable and friendly from the first greeting to the hug at the end of your session. Each artist has their own specialty and they do amazing work! I had my colorful tattoo/cover-up done by a brilliant young artist, Holy. I will definitely be back to get some more work done here. Thanks! Read Less

I was looking for an artist for along while It took me awhile before I just went but I kept coming back to The Black Rose. I live right by it so I've always wanted a Tattoo from here. I was getting my Two Angels I lost during pregnancy a very important piece. I called and Jorgie had time for me and I'm glad he did. They are so nice and friendly here. I loved the atmosphere. I loved my artist thanks "Jorgie". Keep it up bro your only gonna get better. He's good. Read Less

I just moved back to Stockton after being gone for five years. So when I wanted to get a Daith piercing I reviewed piercers on Yelp (since quite a bit has changed in the time I've been gone.) I'm so glad I went with the reviews here...they didn't disappoint. Not only was my piercer extremely knowledgeable but the piercing itself was almost painless. Quick and easy! The shop was really nice and $25 for the piercing was much less than I anticipated. Yep...I'll be back! Read Less

Just left this place, my coworker said to come here cause it's the only person she trusts and I now understand why. There was a problem with one of my dermals. And zombie (which is a fucking rad ass name) was able to help me out with it. Super personable and he knows his shit about piercings. Went for the piercing, stayed for the conversation. Even left with a cool idea for a lobe piercing that was previously ripped and sewn together. Would recommend him to anyone! Read Less

Got a piercing there. Very happy with it. Staff was super  nice. To be honest it is one of the best shops I have been to. Would  definitely  recommend and would  definitely  be going back for other piercing. Also going to see about getting a tattoo  there. Read Less

I'd just like to state that I seldom write Yelp reviews, but felt obligated to write one for Black Rose because my experience with them is always great. I got my third lobe piercing and conch piercing done here with my friend, and every time I come in, I feel very comfortable. Zombie (my piercer) is very hospitable and very nice, which relieved a lot of the stress I had before coming in. He didn't make us feel rushed at all, and was super accommodating. As for my my conch piercing, I was a bit nervous about the pain. However, Zombie got it done quickly and it was almost painless! I no longer trust anyone else with my piercings, he gets the job done so well. Recommend this place 100%!!!! Read Less

This place was awesome they are the only ones that would do ear piercings for my little girl. She said she felt very comfortable and Zombie the piercer was so patient and gentle. Will definitely be coming back here! Read Less

I have received piercing here and chilled while friends were getting their tattoos.. the environment is inviting and the people are social and engagging. Everyone is very knowledgeable in their area of expertise. I recieved my tattoo from amuse and his scripture skills are absolutely amazing!!!!! I wouldn't go anywhere else. Read Less

The best place to get art done. All you got to do is say Sonny or Zombie did it and everyone knows who they are and where they're at, arep like that is crazy. The other artists they're are great too. You won't be disappointed.Read Less

Great experience! Very nice and friendly staff and make you feel comfortable and relaxed no matter what you are getting. I got my tongue pierced and it was my second time getting it done and I can honestly say it was done very professional and with out a rush! I felt very comfortable and felt like it was well worth the money! Love this place! Will definitely come back in the future! Read Less

Although I've never gotten a tattoo from this place, I do refer friends or people to my boy Zombie for piercing's and many of them have gone back for tatt's.It is one of the cleanest shops in the 209. The artist do listen and do their best to accommodate the type of tatt that you are looking to get and they do offer suggestions that may enhance the tatt itself.The prices are some of the best in town. Give them a try. Read Less
