WORST PLACE: I went in here to do my cartilage, tragus, and rook. They were not in the place I asked then to be in. The guy went very fast and seemed to not care. Later on I learned that they didn't do them correctly. When I got it done they gave me summers eve to wash my ear that made it worse. Now my ears or beat red, pussy, and bleeding. I've them for several months and they just get worse. I went in to a different piercing place (out of state so no competition) and I was told that my piercings were done crooked and that they should have never gave summers eve to clean it because all it will do is worsen it. I was also told if I didn't come in sooner I would need part of my ear cut off. Today I called public enemy to try and figure out what I could do and all the lady on the phone could do was scream, cuss, and call me inappropriate names such as "bitch, cunt, and a fucking pussy". Not only did she call me names but she also made comments about how "people do this in the forest with sticks so how stupid can you be to mess it up. I will never go back there. It was very unfriendly/welcoming. Read Less

They have a very wide variety of items to buy, specializing in vape, smoking and piercing accessories. Although they may not be the cheapest, the prices are still pretty fair.

I got my two helix piercings done here, and they were done perfectly. The service was great, he did a very good job, and he was very friendly. The pricing was good, especially considering that anywhere cheaper in the area was not very proffessional. We we're out the door in probably 10-15 minutes, and with nicely placed helix piercings I might add. They still look great! Definitely coming back to get my tounge pierced when I'm old enough!

If I could give zero stars I would. The owners are racists and attacked me. I went in Monday night and got two piercings by the owner who's been doing piercings for "20+ years". I got my tongue pierced and initially did not like it but I figured I'd give it three days to heal. Thursday, I went back to the shop because although the swelling went down, the piercing was in a spot that hindered my speech significantly so I went back to see if there was anything that could be done about it since I LIKED the piercing just not the spot. It turned into "I made the markings on your tongue and you said it was okay.!" "I showed you the purple spots on your tongue and if was a straight dead on piercing.!" I didn't even go in there looking for my money back or anything. Just if there was anything to be done. He blatantly blew me off and as I'm walking out a lady (assuming his wife) started being very disrespectful towards me and putting her fingers in my face while talking to me. I, am not the one for that and told her to not put her fingers in my face. This is when this lady, proceeded to try to HIT me over the counter so I defended myself. She then picked up a mirror and tried to throw it at me ! Shattering it against the door behind me. At this point I'm walking out the door when I see from the corner of my eye this lady jumping over the counter coming after me. Outside the shop, she put both of her hands around my throat and tried to choke me. This is when the owner, comes out with a baseball bat and grabs me by my hair. They were saying "you ratchet b***h" all because I was black.! I will definitely NOT be back and I will get justice. Read Less

I went here to get my second hole pierced after having a bad experience at Clarie's. The owner is amazing, very friendly, honest, and experienced. He has been piercing for about 20 years. They NEVER reuse any needles, have sterilizing machines, and get the machines checked every month. I was worried about the needle not be clean, but he let me watch him take it out of the package and throw it in the sharp box. It also is, at a very good price. Overall I would love to come back the store has a great vibe, and the people are very friendly. Definitely worth it! Read Less

This was the most unprofessional tattoo shop I ve been to. The artists did not have any work to show me -- the woman had some photos on her camera because she said the last place stole her books. This is unacceptable for a tattoo shop. There was a hispanic artist who said he recently moved from the south; he was tattooing a woman and the tattoo was rigid and very amateur looking. Also, there was a heavy smoke smell in the area where tattoos are done. I would not recommend going here for a quality tattoo. I went to Ultimate Tattoo in Madison the following weekend and was VERY pleased with their professionalism, service, and work. Read Less

I had always been skeptical about getting work done at Public Enemy Tattoo. However, I went in yesterday to have an older tattoo of mine that I had gotten elsewhere fixed up. Matt, my artist, explained to me that the tattoo I had was near impossible to fix and would never look perfect. He suggested getting a new tattoo to cover up the old one and I am very happy with my decision. The detail, colors and the hard work and effort that he put into it was absolutely amazing and I will be back for more. The shop is very clean and everyone is very friendly. I have read previous reviews where people had complained about their tattoo from Public Enemy getting infected. This is NOT their fault. They give FULL aftercare instructions and what happens to your tattoo after walking out that shop door is entirely your doing. Get tattooed by Public Enemy. You will NOT be disappointed. Read Less

I have had 2 tattoos done at Public Enemy. My first turned out great! That's why I went back a second time. The second tattoo did not turn out so well. I had a different artist that I did the first time. I initially was told that I bruised. I could clearly see what I thought (and was told) was a bruise, I wasn't surprised since I bruise easily. 6 months later, that "bruise" is still there. I was informed by another tattoo artist from another shop that it was an "ink blowout" underneath my skin that is generally caused by the way the tattoo gun is being held or using the wrong needle speed. I now have a huge mark that looks like a giant bruise (3in x 6in). Now, I have to shell out additional money to fix a tattoo by Public Enemy's artist.Would recommend one artist their (from my first tat there), but can not recommend the other. Read Less

Matt, my artist, explained to me that the tattoo I had was near impossible to fix and would never look perfect. He suggested getting a new tattoo to cover up the old one and I am very happy with my decision. The detail, colors and the hard work and effort that he put into it was absolutely amazing and I will be back for more. The shop is very clean and everyone is very friendly. I have read previous reviews where people had complained about their tattoo from Public Enemy getting infected. This is NOT their fault. They give FULL aftercare instructions and what happens to your tattoo after walking out that shop door is entirely your doing. Get tattooed by Public Enemy. You will NOT be disappointed. Read Less

I have had 2 tattoos done at Public Enemy. My first turned out great! That's why I went back a second time. The second tattoo did not turn out so well. I had a different artist that I did the first time. I initially was told that I bruised. I could clearly see what I thought (and was told) was a bruise, I wasn't surprised since I bruise easily. 6 months later, that "bruise" is still there. I was informed by another tattoo artist from another shop that it was an "ink blowout" underneath my skin that is generally caused by the way the tattoo gun is being held or using the wrong needle speed. I now have a huge mark that looks like a giant bruise (3in x 6in). Now, I have to shell out additional money to fix a tattoo by Public Enemy's artist.Would recommend one artist their (from my first tat there), but can not recommend the other. Read Less

I had a tattoo done here, and am so disappointed in the results. The customer service was fine, but the artwork leaves a lot to be desired. I had a large piece done on my back shoulder and side and am now facing a big coverup situation because of the lack of talent. I am very disappointed. Read Less
