Josh the piercer was amazing! my friend and i got our nipples pierced and we were worried about a guy doing it, but he made us so comfortable and made the experience so much easier.

Amazing tattoo shop! My husband and I started coming here for tattoos and both love our tattoo artists. I always go to Claire and he sees Eric. Both are very talented, as are all the artists here, and they always give us exactly what we want. Claire did my very first tattoo on my neck and, even though it was simple, I was pretty nervous. We talked most of the time and it really helped me relax, I barely felt a thing. We have been back many times since- my hubby is working on a sleeve and I’ve been getting varies tattoos here and there. I love bringing an idea in and seeing the direction Claire takes it, she has a really good eye and I always leave super happy. Eric is also crazy talented, and he is Amazing at Nordic designs so it was perfect for my husbands sleeve since he’s wants all Norse mythology. We both highly recommend this shop, they also do piercings if that is what your looking for :)

I got my first tattoo here, and I had an amazing experience. The artist was great and he did a wonderful job. Highly recommended.

They take walk-ins but also were able to set up an appointment for me as soon as i wanted which was great and set up a touch up appointment. The artist also drew up a custom sketches for my tattoo ideas. All of their artists there are extremely sweet and professional and the shop was extremely clean and i watched them set up for my tattoo and they were sterile and precise. I have also been able to get quite a few piercings and the prices were fair and the jewelry was all good quality.
