I came here to get my forward helix piercing and I had such a great experience! I was recommended by my friend who went here for her belly button piercing. Lori is so great and made the process really quick and easy. I went somewhere else to get my daith piercing and I was stuck there for 45 minutes and the piercing and jewelry cost me around $70. I came here for the first time and was in and out within 20 minutes. The jewelry and piercing only cost $40! I've been looking around other piercing shops and this place is by far the cheapest and has the best reviews. The area is very neat and clean (you can't smell anything). All of the workers are very pleasant and I will definitely be coming back here for my next piercing. Read Less

I have 17 piercings, almost all from Lori, and I'll never go anywhere else. She knows what shes doing. Very clean, and she tells you what shes doing as she goes along so you know what to expect. She has a routine where she goes through the care sheets with you first before piercing you, as well as write down the gauge size for your jewerly and she ensures you of the material the jewerly is made of. Very friendly and has a steady hand. Literally you're in and out. Cant wait for number 18!
--People always ask me what I have done, so here is my list:--
Left ear: Lobes 1-3, cartilage, conch and tragus

I first went to Dano back in 1998 for my first ever tattoo. What has had a lasting impression on me is the honest way he did business. He took a small deposit and then designed my pride and joy, the Aztec Calendar, from a T-Shirt and called me in a few days later to get it done. Here is where Dano really made an impression on me as a man and as a business man. He stenciled the Calendar on my arm and said "Sit here and look at it man. Ten minutes. Make sure this is what you wa...nt because once I start tattooing I CAN'T ERASE IT! If you decide it's not what you want it's okay man we'll call it even where we are. I just want to make sure YOU want this. Okay?" I sat there and the ten minutes seemed like an hour because I wanted the tattoo really bad but the way Dano went about it spoke volumes about his integrity and character. I went on to have three more tattoos done by him and plan on another soon. Thank you Dano! You da man! See More Read Less

I got my belly button pierced at Bluz and was pleasantly surprised at this tattoo place. It is very clean inside (as I would expect any place like this to be) and the staff is awesome. They are such nice people and before I got my piercing, she made me very calm and assured me that everything was clean by opening brand new packages in front of me. I've known a lot of people who have gotten tattoos here who say that they wouldn't go anywhere else. The artists really take into account what you want your tattoo to look like, and will draw it up several different ways until you find what you like best. It's also nice that they aren't trying to charge you a fortune just to get something pierced or get a tattoo. Read Less

I had a large tattoo done by Dano today, and it turned out awesome. I can't say enough good things about Bluz Tattooz and the owner and his wife. If you want beautiful quality artwork or piercings I would highly recommend coming here. I will only ever get any future work done at Bluz. Thank you again Dano Collins, I love my wolf and mandela tattoo!!! Read Less

the tattoos done are phenomenal, the piercings not so much. my nipple piercings are crooked, and the barbells she put in were the wrong size for my anatomy. disappointing.

I first went to Dano back in 1998 for my first ever tattoo. What has had a lasting impression on me is the honest way he did business. He took a small deposit and then designed my pride and joy, the Aztec Calendar, from a T-Shirt and called me in a few days later to get it done. Here is where Dano really made an impression on me as a man and as a business man. He stenciled the Calendar on my arm and said "Sit here and look at it man. Ten minutes. Make sure this is what you wa...nt because once I start tattooing I CAN'T ERASE IT! If you decide it's not what you want it's okay man we'll call it even where we are. I just want to make sure YOU want this. Okay?" I sat there and the ten minutes seemed like an hour because I wanted the tattoo really bad but the way Dano went about it spoke volumes about his integrity and character. I went on to have three more tattoos done by him and plan on another soon. Thank you Dano! You da man! See More Read Less

Having Dave rework and complete a big back tattoo that a previous artist didn't do well on. Dave has recreated the tattoo and it looks wildly better already. I've received nothing but positive comments on the tattoo so far. Everyone in the shop is nice and funny. The owner is smart and knowledgeable, he also reminds me of the Duck Dynasty guys, it's awesome. There are a lot of vintage tattooing memorabilia everywhere which is cool. The shop is really small but feels homey with everyone's good attitude. Read Less

Okay, so I go to Bluz on average of once a month if I can afford it. They're amazing! I adore Kallie, Lori, and Dave. I've never gotten any work done by Dan, but his portfolio is gorgeous. Lori's done 13+ piercings for me, and she's stretching my ears. I've never had any problems with the piercing placement, and Kallie and Lori are happy to answer my questions whenever I call. Overall, they're my favorite shop, and I adore them so much. I take all of my friends there for birthdays and such Read Less

Just had my daith pierced by Lori on Friday. She is always great! Lori has also done my industrial and my belly button. I will only go to Lori! She is very quick, clean (as that I am in the medical field, this is very important to me!), and very kind. I don't mind the pain, but it's always a little nerve racking and she made me feel very comfortable. I highly recommend Lori!! Read Less

First off...to the idiot that was price shopping his tattoo-you are an ass. Never price shop a tattoo, go for the best artist you can find. End of rant. This is a clean, talented, and knowledgeable shop. Dan is a tattooer that has been doing this longer than most anyone in the area. Ask Dan about tattoo history and you will get a lesson. The dude knows his roots, and respects the art tattooing. Him and Dave are very talented artists, and between these two you will get a tattoo that you will be proud of. Too many other shops in the area, skip the rest and go to Bluz and you will get a beautiful tattoo at a fair price. Read Less

Was going around town to get a few quotes on a Celtic knot design I wanted. Went to a few places with prices ranging from 100-150 which is reasonable. The lady who greeted me, after briefly looking at the design I wanted, told me $350. idk if she didn't want to do the job or what but that's outrageous. I laughed and explained that the local competitors will easily do it for half the price. I want to fatbros down the road, got the job done for $125 and it looks amazing!! I wouldn't mind trying the Lady Luck just also down the road but I'm sure as hell never going back to these guys Read Less

Mixed feelings about this place. I got my nose pierced here and the piercer was amazing, very sweet, and helpful. On the other hand, the woman who initially greets you as you walk in the door and answers the phones was extremely rude. She was short and sarcastic, and kept giving my girlfriend and I a very unpleasant look. Wouldn't recommend this shop unless you're only dealing with the piercer. Read Less

I got my triple forward helix by Chloee and she was amazing. She was very polite and informative. She told me everything about the piercing I wanted before hand. She washed her hands before putting gloves on and sterilized everything in front of me. She also told me if I needed help changing out my jewelry to come back and she would do it for free. I absolutely love the shop. It has so much history about tattooing and piercing. Read Less

I got my belly button pierced at Bluz and was pleasantly surprised at this tattoo place. It is very clean inside (as I would expect any place like this to be) and the staff is awesome. They are such nice people and before I got my piercing, she made me very calm and assured me that everything was clean by opening brand new packages in front of me. I've known a lot of people who have gotten tattoos here who say that they wouldn't go anywhere else. The artists really take into account what you want your tattoo to look like, and will draw it up several different ways until you find what you like best. It's also nice that they aren't trying to charge you a fortune just to get something pierced or get a tattoo. Read Less

Dan was amazing! He was very concerned with giving me a work of art that I would love for years - tweaking my design to perfection and spending time explaining proper size and placement. He was friendly and easy going, treated me with respect, and really fun to get a tattoo from. You can tell that he really loves what he does. He was also very concerned with after care, which he spent a lot of time going over. My tattoo is beautiful and I had the best experience I have ever had. After getting a tattoo from Dan I will never go to anyone else. Read Less
