What do you want from a tattoo and piercing shop? Like really. If all you want are good tattoos, look no further. Look, they aren't going to hand you a milkshake when you walk in, but if you want high quality work done for an extremely fair price, go here. As I type, I continue to think about how excellent this shop is. The first time I went here, I just kind-of wandered in. Asked if there was a way to get my dermal piercing removed. Yessir! $10 measly dollars and it was done. Hell yeah. Since then I've gotten some pretty rather ambitious tattoo work under the fantastic, talented hands of Stacy. This is my "home shop" now. If you aren't a twat and don't walk in with a straw hat and a kazoo, you'll be taken care of for all your artistic ambitions. Read Less

Went in to get piercings and left happy. Always make sure to bring cash because they only accept cash and eat before coming in. They're my go-to when I want to get a new piercing due to their low prices and professionalism. Every time I go in they are clean and professional and make me feel safe with getting a piercing there. They always open new needles and clean and sanitize everything. When my brand new piercing came loose and fell out I revisited and they were mroe than happy to help in putting it back in. I recommend them highly as a piercing shop!Edit: i have been informed that the shop actually takes card as well! My apologies for being misinformed Read Less

Recently a group of me and my friends came into the shop to get lip tattoos. We came in with the impression that the artist would be ready to tattoo soon after our arrival. Instead, the artist was not there and we had to wait about 30 minutes. After he came in we proceeded to tell him what we wanted. The artist did not ask for the details, instead he took over an hour to draw up two words in cursive. We proceeded to tell him we did not want that and basically took over and drew it ourselves. Finally he finished drawing up three words and informed us he was leaving to stencil our designs. The artist was MIA for over an hour!! Once he was back my friends lip tattoo took about 45 minutes and the other two took 30. IT LITERALLY TOOK 40-30 MINUTES FOR A FUCKING LIP TATTOO. Keep in mind the artist did not ask if we liked the placement and left me laying on the tattoo chair, holding my lip down while he went outside to smoke a cigarette. All in all, the shop is not bad! The man who appeared to be the shop owner was wonderful and made conversation with us. Read Less

Went to get a lip piercing because my friend recommended a piercer here. Well she was out of town and I wanted to just go through with it.....wrong decision I had a heavier set guy and it went off without a hitch at first, then came the swelling and my post was short so a week later I asked him to change it out he did so gladly but it had dug into the back of my lip so it was painful. I never got after care instructions either. 3 weeks in it got infected and swollen again I finally had it removed. Seems like a lot went wrong. This was my 2nd piercing and I'm not trying to bad mouth anyone but just know your piercer and what knowledge base they have and go in with some knowledge yourself. Read Less

this shop was recommended to me by a friend. hands down it was the best piercing experience I've had so far. i got my double helix and conch done within 15 minutes and the pricing was great. i haven't had any trouble with my piercings so far and they are healing very nicely. these people know what they're doing and I will not go ANYWHERE else to get my piercings done!

We took our 4 year old daughter in to get her ears pierced. We were very nervous because we knew once she got the first ear pierced it would be difficult to get the next one done. The gal that took care of us was so patient and very helpful. My daughter screamed and cried once she knew there was a little pain involved but everyone there was encouraging for her because she really wanted her ears pierced. Once it was finished (which took at least 20 minutes or so because she was reluctant to get the second ear pierced) everyone told her how beautiful she looked and how great of a job she did. Thank you for helping our daughter overcome her fear and she is very happy with her pierced ears and all the earrings she can now wear! Read Less

People/ artist  here are super nice and talented.  The detail on the tatoos is amazing and they are not price gouging for quality work.  The owners are great and shop is clean. Overall a great experience. Read Less

Not one single reviewer knows how to spell or use grammar. Am I the only person with tattoos who has intelligence? WOW. These reviewers must have been shooting crack rather than paying attention in school. IDIOTS !!! Sorry to be harsh, but you're all embarrassing the United States of America and our citizen's knowledge of the written word or how to speak/spell. Read Less

I went to My Religion Tattoo and I got a Tattoo by an "Artist" ah hemm. Anyway they totally messed up my Tat. I mean royalty. I have no clue the requirements needed for Artists here in our State, but I'm highly upset. They gaffeled my arm. It looks like a 6 year old Tatted me:( so I found this place, the place was Slammed, but the artist took the time to talk to me still. I showed my Tat and low and behold the look on the artists face said it all. :( Obviously I should of never went to a Tattoo shop directly accessed from the jail in the first place. Anyway, I scheduled a cover up, I'm half done, and my Tat is looking Amazing. These guys and gals are super legit. Don't believe the bad comments, this place is legit. The owner guy was super funny. And the artists seem to do a great job. I seen 4 Tattoos leave complete during the 6 hours I was there, bad assery. If you don't come here you are crazy. By far the best shop I've came to out here. I found my artist here that's for sure. Reccomend. Reccomend. Reccomend. Read Less

Dope ass shop. The staff was super nice and friendly. I went in to get a piercing the station was super clean and I was out in no time. Jessi was super fast and chill. Definitely sending people there way. Read Less

Took my wife to get her lip pierced the staff was friendly and quick about getting the job done making sure that that if she had any questions to answer them in a professional manner the price was also great with the job well done. Read Less

the lady who pierced me was so friendly. she explained everything to me perfectly and did an amazing job on my nose piercing. she could tell i was a little bit nervous and calmed me down a bit. i teared up a little when she pierced me and she wiped my tears. real asf. after the piercing i had a couple of questions and she answered all of them without hesitation.

I just went in for a quick Tattoo. Donnie was the guys name. I have quite a few Tattoos, and I have no complaints, but sitting with this guy was a fun experience. He hooked me up price wise, my Tattoo came out great, but I had a blast sitting 4 hours with him. My original appointment was with A Big Chris, but Chris didn't show up. Donnie informed me that Chris was let go for past issues of the same sort and Donnie gave me 50$ off my session. I mean I tipped him fat anyway all said and done but I sure appreciated the gesture upon the end result of my Tattoo, I'm glad Chris was not my artist. I received a great Tattoo, and I was entertained my whole session with great company. I am sold on Ink Slingers Tattoo. I drive truck for a living and I will definitely make this place my Tattoo home from here on out. I scroll thru on these bad reviews on here and I can positively claim anything negative as false. The shop is busy, anytime someone who worked there went to the store, they popped in and asked if we wanted anything from 7-11 etc. Cool people. I mean really cool people. I will not go anyplace else. Cheers. Read Less

This place is amazing they are very clean and professional, I have spend hours at this shop and have seen amazing work come out of here if you are in reno Tahoe carson and gville must come here the owner is very artistic and will get you exactly what you want hands down the best and fun stop to get tatted at it get you piercings. Thank you guys rock:) Read Less

I want to re-review... I deleted my ladt review. I understand how it is to have to go into work not feeling well. I had the experience of being graced by Jessie. She did her best even being sick and she does awesome work. I felt some type of way but i didnt know she didnt feel well. I want to thank her for her Awesome work and her customer service. She reached out to me and apologized for our visit. Now thats what i consider OUTSTANDING customer service. I will continue to utilize this location in the future!! When you take the time out to let your customer know you care that says Alot!! Great work and customer service !!! I am a happy customer!! Read Less

This is by far the best tattoo and piercing shop I've been too! Jesse is amazing at piercing, and Chris's tat work is amazing! The best part is that they are not overpriced and the work is definitely quality. The other part I like is that there's no rush even if it's closing time which is awesome. Chris was great he kept going until I had enough late into the night, and then did my friends line work and shadowing! He's quick, and I showed him several pics and he made me a half sleeve that was even better than what I had in my head! He has become my tattoo artist for the rest of my work which is going to be a lot! The shop is awesome, and comfortable everyone is super cool. It's an actually tattoo and piercing shop and not a freaking over priced yuppy shop like everywhere else in town is turning. It's an original shop with quality work, and I'm impressed! Read Less

I came in here to get my belly button re-pierced after my body pushed out the first one after it being done too shallow. I was helped out very quickly and didn't have to wait too long to be pierced. The whole process took probably 20 minutes tops. The person who pierced me did a very swift job and it didn't even hurt! Read Less

Called yesterday to make sure whoever does piercing would be there today. Took someone to surprise them for their birthday, and the piercing person wasn't there. Waste of time and ruined a birthday surprise. Read Less

Searched and searched for a place where I wouldn't have to spend a ridiculous amount on a piercing and when I found this place I gave it a shot! Very happy with it and will continue to go here for all my piercings  Daniel was super nice and got it done quick! Read Less

This is the only place I will go for my piercings. Both of the piercers know what they are doing and are also great in their own ways. For the people saying anything bad.. I don't even know what to say. I've gotten around 30 piercings by them and never had a problem that they caused. (I personally make mistakes.) It's amazingly priced and they can get you started with a punch card for your 8th piercing free or something like that. Everyone is super friendly working there, so please don't hesitate to ask questions about your piercings, they're always glad to help. Seriously, this is an amazing place. Read Less

My experience with this tattoo shop was HORRIBLE. It was my very first tattoo and I got it done by Orlando. He knew it was my first tattoo and completely took advantage of that. He made my tattoo look EXACTLY like what I told him I didn't want it to look like. He was completely rushing on both me and my friend's tattoo and didn't take into consideration that his art would be on our bodies for the rest of our lives. I would have given this place 0 stars but it didn't let me have that option. I'm sure there are better artists who work at the shop who actually care about their clients but I would suggest looking to get your tattoo done by anyone else besides Orlando. Read Less

Went in and got two cartilage piercings by Daniel, and they're perfect!! Great price, $15 each, not to mention Daniel was really chill, and very professional. I would 100% go to him for any other piercings I decide to get in the future, and I highly recommend him to anyone.Read Less

I came here on a whim to get something kinda cool and nerdy, a reference to my favorite cartoon. Chris worked with me to make my reference unique and memorable. He was super fast, efficient, and the tattoo came out perfect. I can't recommend them enough, if you want something amazing for an unbeatable price, definitely give this shop a try! Read Less

Piercings are a lot cheaper than most places. I went in with a group of friends, we never saw them actually take a new needle out. Your opinion on a piercing that is going on YOUR face isn't even acknowledged. I've had my nose pierced more than twice and I've never had a nose bleed until I came here. I went back & got my medusa with another piercer  there & she looked unsure as to what she was doing. "Im not sure if I'm allowed to pierce through your Frenum."Not the best place out there. Highly suggest you go elsewhere to get a piercing. Fondue body boutique never disappoints if you're looking to get a new piercing. Read Less

Best tattoo and piercing shop I've ever been too. The people are super friendly and nice the prices are perfect . I felt comfortable the people there are rad . I got 2 dermals yesterday and a tattoo and my boyfriend got a tattoo and a piercing as well . Super friendly welcoming and over all amazing . Daniel was super funny and made the whole time just great . Aaron did our tattoos and they came out amazing . He was very friendly and welcoming . We will be coming back best shop ever Read Less

Went in with my niece.  She was getting a Helix.  I wanted two piercings on my right lobe (standard and upper).  I felt I was clear I wanted two.  After doing the first one, I was ushered up front as if that was it.  When I reiterated that I was there for two, I was taken back a second time.  Despite spending several minutes comparing, measuring, and lining up, the piercings on my right lobe are much closer together than on my left.  They are so close together that I cannot wear _any_ of my larger gems.  You'd be better off going to Piercing Pagoda in the mall.

I have several tattoos and from different shops and I had a great experience with Chris. I spoke with him about what I wanted and he delivered! He is the fastest artist I've ever seen which helps when your getting a painful area tatted! Read Less

Went a few years ago for their '2 for $13' deal on a Friday the 13th. Not sure if the needles were sterilized. I got my tongue and industrial done. So 3 total holes. All were done with the same needle. Had to take out my tongue bar later that night because the bar was way too short for a healing piercing and it was way swollen. The industrial never healed and I took it out a year later. Read Less

I recently got a piercing here and wow was it a different experience. I'm not new to piercings, tattoos or obviously the etiquette of shops etc. I've come to find that they're more liberal than the average business. However, it's still a business so I expect a certain level of professionalism. I can't comment on their tattoos but I can comment on the piercings. First off I'm pretty sure I didn't see the piercer (which was a girl) take out a new needle. I'm hoping she did. She did say needed to get everything set up and then she called me back so I won't necessarily ding her for that. But then when she actually pierced me, she didn't clean the area. She merely wiped it off with a napkin, dodnt ask if I was ready. didn't ask me to rinse my mouth (the piercing was oral) and she pierced me without even asking about placement. She was like oh okay you're done. It literally took no more than 1 minute. She also didn't ask if I wanted to see it after. She just walked me to the front to pay. I later looked at the piercing when I go to my car and there was blood all on my teeth etc. It was crooked and I had to buy my own mouthwash just because I know for a fact my mouth was not clean enough for the piercing to heal properly and like I said she didn't disinfect my mouth prior etc. I don't need my hand held but since I am spending my money I expected more. Also as I was working later that day, one of the balls came out. Usually piercers put the new jewelry in pretty tight. Like I said I was relatively dissatisfied with the work and work ethic. This was actually me piercing this area a second time because I took it out the first time and I wanted repierced. I also have tattoos and at one point in time I had over 20 piercings. I'm well-experienced so it was disappointing. Also they don't ask for ID or ask to fill out paperwork/ liability forms. They basically just need your name on a card with your birthdate. My point is in other places of business where  only certain valid forms of identification are acceptable, this isn't one of those places. I've been pierced in places from LA, Vegas, Reno etc so I'm aware of the protocols. Indulge at your own risk. Read Less

Got my ears pierced there yesterday. The prices were great, they got me in and out fast, and the quality of piercing is great too. Thanks you guys! I will recommend this place to everyone, and I would definitely get more piercings here in the future! Read Less

These guys are awesome and total professionals. Took a friend to get some piercings done in and discret place and the woman there was a absolute pro. Would recommend to any of my friends for sure! Having my own work done in a month that's how impressed I was. Their pricing was on the money. #badass Read Less

Got two piercings today... my nose and belly button.... I absolutely love them!!! For being terrified of needles they made it a wonderful experience!!! Love both piercings and will definitely go back there for my next one!!! Read Less

Inkslingers is a great place. Cory did a cover up on me and you cannot see the old tattoo at all. The atmosphere is great and people are very friendly.If you can sit thru it the best deal in town is the $400 all day special. I will be going back! Read Less

I happen to stumble upon this place by something completely unrelated to tattoos, but I'm really glad I did. I have had an unfinished full sleeve for a year now. It's so hard finding quality artists that won't nickel and dime you or run with your money. Donnie was my artists name. The color that he's done is amazing so far and I'm looking forward to getting more work done! They were offering a special: $400 for all you can sit, but I did 4 hours for $200. They really work with you and still put out great tattoos. Read Less
