I went there first time and it was pretty awesome. They keep up with the year so you can do cash or card and they are just like a doctor's office. I got my septum pierced and they did a fabulous job the first time you go in to get your piercing for the first time you get to pick out the color of your piercing for free and after you get it done they say come in after a month or two so they can check on it and see if it's healing property don't cost nothing and the cost is pretty accurate what they do there like the cleaning of the jewelry. They use all new needles everything is clean to the touch. I highly recommend anyone going in there and get a piercing I'm looking forward to getting more piercings and my first tattoo there sometime in the future. And they have the friendliest of crew Read Less

We decided to let our 16 yr old get her septum pierced as one of her Christmas gifts. I looked online at different reviews, called a few places, and due to their kindness, sanitation procedures and quality titanium Jewelry, we made a wise choice! Callie was so sweet and helpful and Jay was also very nice and professional. He took the time to explain everything to her and answer any questions we had.

I'd had my eye on this shop for a while and after several failed attempts, the stars aligned and I landed my butt in a chair here at Neon Dragon for a piercing appointment with (current) apprentice, Heidi. This shop is gorgeous, spacious, clean, and modern. Tattoo takes up most of the right half while piercing lives on the left. The staff is friendly, professional, and super knowledgeable which made for a really relaxed and fun appointment. They carry a wide selection of higher end jewelry and run a little pricier than I've seen at some other shops, but your body will thank you. (Trust me, I've seen the dark side...) We went with a more basic option, which they were able to anodize in a bold color to spice it up a little bit. My friend drove up from Chicago to tag along and we both agree - hands down one of the most enjoyable modification experiences we've had to date. Definitely my local recommendation for any and all piercings and body jewelry needs. Read Less

Only ever had a piercings done here. I have to say, JR is great. Never had a problem. But if you go to Rob then STEER CLEAR. I had him replace my tongue ring and he didn’t ask the length of my bar just assumed, it was too long and I chipped my tooth. Just recently I had my tragus done and it was a mess. There was a hair within the hole which caused severe irritation, the piercing position was different from my other tragus, and the post I was give was entirely too small. Like I said, if it’s JR then go, he’s great, but I wouldn’t risk it with Rob anymore. But that’s just my 2 cents. Read Less

Went to get an industrial piercing done, and while waiting, there was an irate customer getting upset with the staff about her past jewelry purchase. JayR was calmly talking with the irate lady and explaining things while letting her know in a calm, yet firm, tone that she was not allowed to mistreat or disrespect him or the staff, no matter the situation. Myself and other patrons chatted about how professionally he handled the situation and how calm he stayed despite the situation and level that the irate lady went to (fairly rude yelling and demands).
My spouse and I have been here a few times before and expected nothing less, as they have always been friendly, courteous, and informative for each and every visit.
Very glad we chose Neon Dragon for their professionalism and knowledge. Apparently some people do not realize what goes into getting APP certified and choose not to listen to their instruction.
Highly recommend!

A few months ago I stopped in the shop with an idea in my head. I was kindly greeted by Rob behind the piercing counter. The woman at the front desk was busy booking other clients (always a good sign) so Rob took the time to carefully listen to what I had in mind. Without hesitation, he said to me I know the perfect person for you to work with, give me a moment. My wife and I took a seat on the couch in the waiting area and within a couple of moments, Rob was back. He introdu...ced us to Morgan. I could see Morgan was busy working with another client, so I briefly explained what I was wanting to have done. Morgan was very calm and allowed me to share with her what I wanted to be done. We talked about the process, as well as her scheduling. It was then recommended that I take a look at some of her past work. After doing this, I knew I felt confidence in Morgan. I should also point out that her calm demeanor was something that stuck out to me as well. I booked my appointment before leaving that day and sent her some photos of ideas that I wanted to somehow incorporate into my tattoo. Morgan was terrific at communicating with me in the time leading up to the tattoo. Two days prior to my appointment, I stopped in and looked at the drawings she came up with. Since we are doing a half sleeve on my upper left arm, she was able to explain how everything would lay out and gave me a great visualization of what the tattoo would look like when done. Skip forward to yesterday. My appointment was at noon and Morgan was there ready to go. We took a few 5-10 minute breaks, but otherwise, spent 7-1/2 hours working on the first portion of my sleeve. It turned out better than I could have ever imagined. The amount of detail in this piece is what keeps me staring in awe at it. I have Morgan to thank for that. She is incredibly talented and she was enjoyable to be around as well. I can truly say that for every single employee at Neon Dragon that was there yesterday. It was a great day and I can't wait to get back in there and have this thing finished. Thank you for the tremendous experience! See More Read Less

I got my septum pierced here about a month ago and seeing as it was a piercing I had wanted for so many years I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The pricing was more than reasonable and the care that he took of me was beyond my expectations. Even on just a consultation the day before he felt the area to get a good idea of what it would be like and when I came back for the piercing he was extremely accommodating with my anxiety about needles making sure to keep me calm and relaxed and didn't have the needle in my line of sight up until the last necessary moment. He was very clear about what he was going to do and how to take care of it. All of this added up with the cleanliness and overall atmosphere of the shop I'm insanely impressed and happy with my experience and I would 100% recommend going in here to any and everyone whether it's your first piercing or your tenth it's sure to be a great experience!Read Less

Kept me at ease for over 8 hours straight and dedicated his entire day to the amazing piece of art he did for me! I could not be more satisfied with Andrews work and the shop as a whole!

I went there first time and it was pretty awesome. They keep up with the year so you can do cash or card and they are just like a doctor's office. I got my septum pierced and they did a fabulous job the first time you go in to get your piercing for the first time you get to pick out the color of your piercing for free and after you get it done they say come in after a month or two so they can check on it and see if it's healing property don't cost nothing and the cost is pretty accurate what they do there like the cleaning of the jewelry. They use all new needles everything is clean to the touch. I highly recommend anyone going in there and get a piercing I'm looking forward to getting more piercings and my first tattoo there sometime in the future. And they have the friendliest of crew Read Less

I'd had my eye on this shop for a while and after several failed attempts, the stars aligned and I landed my butt in a chair here at Neon Dragon for a piercing appointment with (current) apprentice, Heidi. This shop is gorgeous, spacious, clean, and modern. Tattoo takes up most of the right half while piercing lives on the left. The staff is friendly, professional, and super knowledgeable which made for a really relaxed and fun appointment. They carry a wide selection of higher end jewelry and run a little pricier than I've seen at some other shops, but your body will thank you. (Trust me, I've seen the dark side...) We went with a more basic option, which they were able to anodize in a bold color to spice it up a little bit. My friend drove up from Chicago to tag along and we both agree - hands down one of the most enjoyable modification experiences we've had to date. Definitely my local recommendation for any and all piercings and body jewelry needs. Read Less

Only ever had a piercings done here. I have to say, JR is great. Never had a problem. But if you go to Rob then STEER CLEAR. I had him replace my tongue ring and he didn’t ask the length of my bar just assumed, it was too long and I chipped my tooth. Just recently I had my tragus done and it was a mess. There was a hair within the hole which caused severe irritation, the piercing position was different from my other tragus, and the post I was give was entirely too small. Like I said, if it’s JR then go, he’s great, but I wouldn’t risk it with Rob anymore. But that’s just my 2 cents. Read Less

Went to get an industrial piercing done, and while waiting, there was an irate customer getting upset with the staff about her past jewelry purchase. JayR was calmly talking with the irate lady and explaining things while letting her know in a calm, yet firm, tone that she was not allowed to mistreat or disrespect him or the staff, no matter the situation. Myself and other patrons chatted about how professionally he handled the situation and how calm he stayed despite the situation and level that the irate lady went to (fairly rude yelling and demands).
My spouse and I have been here a few times before and expected nothing less, as they have always been friendly, courteous, and informative for each and every visit.
Very glad we chose Neon Dragon for their professionalism and knowledge. Apparently some people do not realize what goes into getting APP certified and choose not to listen to their instruction.
Highly recommend!
Thanks guys! Read Less

A few months ago I stopped in the shop with an idea in my head. I was kindly greeted by Rob behind the piercing counter. The woman at the front desk was busy booking other clients (always a good sign) so Rob took the time to carefully listen to what I had in mind. Without hesitation, he said to me I know the perfect person for you to work with, give me a moment. My wife and I took a seat on the couch in the waiting area and within a couple of moments, Rob was back. He introdu...ced us to Morgan. I could see Morgan was busy working with another client, so I briefly explained what I was wanting to have done. Morgan was very calm and allowed me to share with her what I wanted to be done. We talked about the process, as well as her scheduling. It was then recommended that I take a look at some of her past work. After doing this, I knew I felt confidence in Morgan. I should also point out that her calm demeanor was something that stuck out to me as well. I booked my appointment before leaving that day and sent her some photos of ideas that I wanted to somehow incorporate into my tattoo. Morgan was terrific at communicating with me in the time leading up to the tattoo. Two days prior to my appointment, I stopped in and looked at the drawings she came up with. Since we are doing a half sleeve on my upper left arm, she was able to explain how everything would lay out and gave me a great visualization of what the tattoo would look like when done. Skip forward to yesterday. My appointment was at noon and Morgan was there ready to go. We took a few 5-10 minute breaks, but otherwise, spent 7-1/2 hours working on the first portion of my sleeve. It turned out better than I could have ever imagined. The amount of detail in this piece is what keeps me staring in awe at it. I have Morgan to thank for that. She is incredibly talented and she was enjoyable to be around as well. I can truly say that for every single employee at Neon Dragon that was there yesterday. It was a great day and I can't wait to get back in there and have this thing finished. Thank you for the tremendous experience! See More Read Less

I got my septum pierced here about a month ago and seeing as it was a piercing I had wanted for so many years I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The pricing was more than reasonable and the care that he took of me was beyond my expectations. Even on just a consultation the day before he felt the area to get a good idea of what it would be like and when I came back for the piercing he was extremely accommodating with my anxiety about needles making sure to keep me calm and relaxed and didn't have the needle in my line of sight up until the last necessary moment. He was very clear about what he was going to do and how to take care of it. All of this added up with the cleanliness and overall atmosphere of the shop I'm insanely impressed and happy with my experience and I would 100% recommend going in here to any and everyone whether it's your first piercing or your tenth it's sure to be a great experience!Read Less

Jason has done all of my tattoos and I would not go anywhere else! He runs a very clean shop with a positive attitude. His talent is worth the wait for an appointment!
