JT did my chest piece and several leg tattoos about 20 years ago. The large chest piece was completed in one session and has never needed a touch-up. The lines are still strong and the color has held incredibly well. I still get compliments on it to this day. It’s rare to see work age this well, and I’m grateful I trusted such an experienced artist. His craftsmanship really shows over time.

I went in to get my belly button pierced. I didn’t know it was called a naval and he grilled me for that for “not knowing anatomy” (I’ve never taken an anatomy class). He was extremely rough during the piercing process. I asked for a countdown which he did, but then the needle got stuck. He then blamed me for that and was angry saying he doesn’t like countdowns because people flinch, but I would have flinched without a countdown anyway. The shop was dirty which threw me off. There was a movie playing extremely loudly in the background. He was very rude until the end when I gave him an almost 50% tip, because I like to tip well. It was very cheap but I would rather pay more for better service. He dropped the ball of the piercing a few times and I have multiple bloody scratches around my belly button. He did go into detail about the after care and was working quickly, the customer service just wasn’t great and he was very passive aggressive. He also kept interrupting my friend and I whenever we were talking to him and even each other. He just seems a bit too old, may be time for retirement. Unfortunately I won’t be going back:( There’s a lot of good reviews though so maybe it’s just my experience.

Great service, informative, and works quickly. Room was a bit cluttered which gave me hesitation in allowing my son to get his piercing done here, however all tools of the trade were clean and sterile and that put me at ease. My son has since gotten quite a few piercings done here. We definitely recommend. (for piercings at least, we've not had any tattoos done here.)

My niece's piercing was done quick. The piercer (Jay?) was made sure his equipment & everything was sterilized, and he serenaded us (well he hummed continuously to himself). He wasn't friendly or rude, but it's a tattoo shop 🤷🏾‍♀️. Prices were decent too 😁
