I had my belly piercing done here about two years ago. No problems, no itching, no wounds. Koz is very great and friendly. I was nervous at first but he made me feel calm and comfortable. We talked throughout the process. He was so fast, didn’t even know when he was done. He did a very neat job. Also, the prices are affordable. Read Less

Would rather check your credit before they show you any work or any merchandise. Guess they fail to realize IF I DON'T LIKE IT, THE COST IS IRRELEVANT!! Poor customer service. I see a response but can't reply to it directly, so: I didn't bring in any photo. I inquired about work/artists for an idea and merchandise/ring - but the girl I talked to was so busy telling me how much the idea or each piece of jewelry would cost that I couldn't get a word in edgewise. And she was snotty about it. Really feel she was intimating that I wouldn't be able to afford what i asked about. News flash: This ain't my first rodeo. I'm covered in tats and your poor customer service at the outset of a transaction cost you a customer. If the customer isn't asking how much it costs, don't offer that information. To reiterate: It's IRRELEVANT if I don't like what I see. And rude. Read Less

This place is absolutely amazing! Julie has done all of my tattoos since I've started coming here and I refuse to go anywhere else. Her artistry is phenomenal; I'm always getting compliments on my half sleeve that she drew up herself. I carry her cards every where I go so whenever someone asks me who did my tattoo I can just hand them one of her cards. BMI is also very clean and very professional, but they also know how to have fun and make their clients feel comfortable and welcome. Read Less

Absolutely will only come here for piercings, never had a problem, everything looks great, heals awesome. But the tattoos...mine faded terribly after a year & now a quote that my grandma told me all my life is supposed to mean the World to me and look ahh~mazing, doesn't look to great & was told a touch up would be $120 when I paid $180 for that tattoo. Just doesn't seem reasonable to me. I could understand if I was a difficult client who couldn't sit still, but common I goto sleep during my tattoos, completely still with no problems. All in all, come here for piercings but double think tattoos (ink quality is poor) Read Less
