Do not go here to get any kind of tattoo or piercing. The place is dirty, smells, and the workers are rude and unhygienic. Since there is no where else to buy rings for my nose and ear piercings, I often have to go there to get them, and I have to wait for 20-30 minutes for anyone to notice me, while the workers rush to the side of others who walked in after me. Once, while waiting to buy a nose ring, I watched one tattoo artist tattooing a woman's back. While he was doing so, he was eating an ice cream. During the tattoo, some of the ice cream dripping onto his glove, so he proceeded to lick it off and keep tattooing her. I was so disgusted that I never went back. Please- if you live in New Rochelle and you'd like a tattoo/piercing, please travel somewhere else to do it. My brother's piercings from Lupita's are uneven, and my mother-in-law was given the incorrect advice on how to care for her first tattoo, and because of it, some of the ink was pulled out of the tattoo by the cream she was told to use on it for 2 weeks (in reality, A+D ointment should only be used on a tattoo for 2-3 days). When my friend got his tattoo there, they did not work with him and do a professional job- he has a birthmark on his chest, which most tattoo artists would have either worked around, or shaded through, but at Lupita's, they just left it and it now looks like the tattoo is messed up, because of the birthmark. You DO NOT want your tattoo done here. Read Less
