Emily was super sweet and did an amazing job. Husband got his ears pierced and I got double nose piercing. We love them. Thank you Emily. Front desk was also super friendly and great atmosphere overall. 10/10 recommended. We live an hour away but it’s worth the drive and this will be my go to place every time.
I just got my conch pierced today by Shye! She is SO cute and so friendly, and she pierced me really fast and it was like nothing. She made me feel very comfortable and took the time to efficiently communicate the difference between conch placements to me which I really appreciated. I will be coming back 😊😊
James was awesome to work with. You can tell he’s genuinely passionate about tattooing and really cares about getting it right. He took the time to make sure I got exactly what I wanted and never made me feel rushed or pressured for my very first tattoo. He was super informative throughout the process and made me feel welcome right away, like I’d been coming there for years. Great experience and I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Thank you James!
