Sam is the wonderful and friendly person who did my sabres piece. Keith is also amazing and did the rework of my 13 year old hydra that always looked awful. Aside from their obvious skill, the shop vibes are immaculate. These are good people who surround themselves with good people, and I firmly believe the quality of the art is raised by it. All of their artists have different styles that cover a wide variety of needs

Iggy did my son's Lobes and he was great! Super friendly, very helpful with knowledge on how to care for and clean ears. With jewelry he helped pick the perfect fit for him, made him feel so calm he didn't even know they were in! Awesome service, snacks and drinks at your convenience! Amazing service from everyone in the parlor. Everyone was welcoming while your sitting for your appointment, chatting and making friendly conversation. 10/10 would recommend

’ve always been afraid of needles but wanted to get my ears pierced again, Iggy walked me through the whole thing and was absolutely fantastic! Since that visit I’ve gone back twice and now have my nose pierced and I love it! I 100% trust Iggy in all things piercing! I’ve been tattooed by Shannon, Krista, and Paige and all of them have been awesome and the final pieces are works of art that I’ll love forever! They all listened to my ideas and brought them to life! I’ll definitely be back!!!

Today I came in with two friends for walk in piercings. We were immediately greeted by a few staff members and we had a very quick waiting time! Our piercer Iggy carefully evaluated each of us based on our anatomy, ran us through the process step-by-step, was open and honest, and answered our questions friendly and thoroughly.
When it was time for our piercings, Iggy our piercer made us laugh several times throughout and helped us when we were nervous. Iggy was EXTREMELY gentle, and of all the places I have been to was the best piercer I have ever had; we all felt so comfortable and the piercing barely felt like a pinch. Iggy also offered me water and helped me when I felt a bit dizzy afterward.
I highly recommend this shop to anyone, and I really believe that it was worth it! The prices are great, the staff is extremely friendly kind and professional, the shop is very clean and beautifully decorated, and we all felt so comfortable and happy with the results that we got!

seriously? why’d you click? all jokes aside, that’s just way too complicated to answer. the size, detail level, and color scheme are just a few factors that go into any tattoo. since we’re talking about something that you’re going to look at for the rest of your life, come up to the shop and sit down with an artist to make sure that you’re getting something you’re going to love.
remember, good work ain’t cheap, and cheap work ain’t good. -

Tipping isn’t required, but it’s a great way to show your artist you enjoyed the experience. 20% is always a solid starting point, but $100-$200 is common for larger and more involved pieces.
