Cool decor and tattoo artists seemed competent enough. I think they should be wearing uniforms Even if it is some graffiti artsy Polo's. And ladies shouldn't be wearing leggings/tights to work.

Absolutely amazing! Very sanitary, all the employees are friendly and professional. Great atmosphere. The piercer, Andy, was great; he described every part of the piercing before he actually did it and made sure we understood what was happening. Had a piercing here a few years back and it still looks great and stayed clean/healthy. Just got a new one done a few weeks ago and I'm very happy with it again. Fair prices! Also, $10 off for college students with ID or proof of being a student!! Highly recommend and wouldn't go anywhere else! Read Less

Brad took care of a very special piece for me yesterday and did a phenomenal job. On top of that, he also did small pieces for 5 of my family members, all of whom had never had any tattoos at all, and he was wonderful.

I've been here quite a few times for piercings, which were always done wonderfully. Today I got my first tattoo, and I cannot be happier. Brad did an incredible job explaining the entire process to me, and then showing me the sterilization of each piece of equipment and area around where I was being tattooed. He made sure that I was 100% confident in the piece I was getting, and reassured me that if I wanted it changed just a tiny bit that he wouldn't mind at all before he started. He was so much fun and kind and I absolutely love love love my tattoo!! I'm already planning on getting another. Even though it is a little more pricey than other places, it is very clean and so worth it! Read Less
