What Our Clients Are Saying

Real feedback from real people—because your experience matters.

Jasmine did a great job on my conch piercing, she lined it up perfectly with the one on my other ear. Quick, easy, and clean. Highly Recommend.
VIRGINIA FILTRANTE
This shop is awesome!! I walked in and felt at home. Amber was my artist. I had a couple ideas for what I wanted, and she took those ideas and created this piece of artwork that fit PERFECTLY to cover up the old tattoo. Like it was meant to be! It’s 3 months old now and the colors are still super vibrant. I recommend Amber to anyone who is looking for an artist who listens to your ideas, and makes you feel super comfortable! I will definitely be returning in the future!.
