Stopped in to get my other ear pierced, as I've decided to gauge my ears. Had Sarah do the job, and couldn't say enough good things if I wanted to! Professional, friendly, knowledgeable...just a fantastic experience! I told her I was gauging, and she gave me recommendations for where to get kits, lotions to help the job go smoother, and after a few other comments and questions, she was able to point me to a metal my wife could use for piercings, as she's allergic even to most precious metals. Great staff, great selections of earrings, plugs, tunnels, etc.... Just a damn good experience, and would happily recommend these guys to everyone! Read Less

I've been coming to Ink Machine for years. Amazing staff. Sarah is the best. They are all very knowledgeable in their trade. Very wonderful artists. So friendly and personable. Even though they are a little pricy, you get what you pay for. I've gotten 4 tattoos there. 2 from Tanner and 2 from J-rod way back in the day. Countless piercings over the years by Sarah. All healed perfectly. Read Less

Sarah pierced my nose and she did a great job. Not only was she quick, very clean, and it turned out great but she has a huge heart! I came in to not just get a piercing but to check an item off my bucket list and she listened to me and even gave me a hug when I was shedding some tears. I love this place!! Read Less

Currently working on a sleeve tattoo and Nik the owner has done all of my work. Never have I been disappointed. He once drew up a piece and added a diamond into the flower area, which I loved. I don't feel intimated by him to say I don't like something which is what you should look for. Several pieces done, more to go and all I can say is that Nik will be the only one doing them. I've also had Sarah do a lot of piercings she's so helpful and informative. Read Less

I get everything done here. Piercings and all of my tattoos. Tanner did 2/3 of them, and Nick did the other one, and they turned out exactly how I wanted them. I've never had any problems, and I almost cried when my arm pieces were done. My piercings have never been infected, and Sarah always makes sure it's where you want it. They are so helpful and fun to go see. Tanner is such a jokester. After getting any tattoo, he wants you to be 100% that you like it, and will do free touch ups up to 2 weeks after getting it done. I cannot say how amazing these people are. If you want anything done, this is the place to go. Read Less

Β This experience was different from the other two because it's not Big O. Β I did not meet the owner of the shop, but conclude he is not a feminist. Β Not sure if they have covered it up since last I was there, but there were paintings of objectified women being slaughtered on the wall - quite disturbing if you're sensitive to that, my friend refused to have work done.
