Got my forward helix done and the stud he used was to short that my ear did not have room to swell or heal I had to take it out. He used the wrong piercing for that area he could not even get his fingers in to tighten the ball my ear was pouring blood from him trying. Oh did I mention he charged me three times as much as any other tattoo shop $45 so I also got ripped off and no longer have the piercing Read Less

I just left from going to get my conch pierced and the piercer Billy was the coolest, quickest, and most knowledgeable person I've ever went to to get a piercing. He made the experience feel personal and relaxed and he took his time to make sure everything was good and that I knew how to take care of it. Also, I take pain pretty well, but he still asked me multiple times if I was feeling nauseous or hot, and generally just making sure I was okay which made me feel better. I will always go back there. So wonderful. Read Less

I have been coming here since I was 15 years old and have had great experiences aside from the last visit I had. One of the artists, Dave was a cocky asshole who bashed my arm piece claiming I spent too much and he could've done it better and faster. Yet, interesting enough, when I compared his art on his Instagram with the page of Brent Lakowsky (guy who did mine in Charleston) Dave's work was awful in comparison lmaooo Billy is a good piercer and Matt seems nice but don't fw Dave  you could just tell he was a shit talker and made the whole environment uncomfortable for me due to his lack in respect. They've lost a 5 year customer I can go to charlotte tattoo co for much better work, anyway lol Read Less
