I went there on a whim to get a very simple tattoo. I have several other tattoos. First, I've never been in a tattoo parlor that dirty. Second, his work is really bad. He talks about how long he's been doing it, but his work is amateur, novice, apprentice type work. The tattoo he gave me has several blown out spots. Simple plain lettering .. terrible work. He is unprofessional, sits outside getting drunk and yelling at people. Do your self a favor, don't let him work on you won't be happy. Even the people here who posted how happy they are .. look at the work they posted .. none of it is executed well. None of it ..

Now I have a giant nose piercing hole because the two combined somehow due to him piercing it to close. It looks disgusting, swollen still 2-3 months after. I regret ever going to this place! Not to mention the dog hair everywhere, no dog gate. Opens later then door says. Nothing looks clean and $100 for a nose piercing?! Really?!

She was not given the proper jewlwey for a Newley pierced nose, rather he gave her a piece of jewlwey more suited for someone who has already gone through the healing process. The piece of jewelry she received was not one that would stay in her nose throughout the healing process. He said his reason for using the straight nose jewlery was because he "thought they looked less like boogies" which may be true but that should not be his concern. His concern should be the healing process. She went home and two days later she woke up and her nose piercing had fallen out. $70 dollars to get a pericing done that wasn't even guaranteed to last. I tried to call up and speak for her but was met with nothing but attitude and told that it was her problem because she "obviously must not have known how to take care of it" were his exact words. But if he had done his job properly she would have 1. Had a piece of jewlery that lasted throughout the healing process and 2. Know about the healing process. Anyway, he told me he would absolutely not refund her because it was her fault ($70) and that she would have to drive all the way to him (2hrs both ways) to pick up a new piece of jewlery. I asked "will the jewlery be free" He said "yes" I said "well if that's all you can do for me I guess it's sad but I'll take it" He then hung up on me. I tried to call back but my call continued to get ignored. I left a message but have a feeling I will not be hearing back. Very unfortunate. I wish this establishment cared about their customers.

She explained the entire procedure to me and offered ample opportunity to answer any questions I had. She traced the brow shape and was sure I was pleased with it before we began. I never felt rushed. We listened to awesome music and chatted during breaks in the procedure. Bri gave me a mirror and let me check out our progress whenever I wanted. She prepared me for the "pain" which was really just discomfort and it was over before I knew it. All the aftercare instructions were explained to me in great detail as well as written up to take home. As far as price, there are places in the city that charge over $1000 for the same procedure with the same results. Why pay that when you can have the professionalism and experience that CTC provides right in Monmouth County? I am so happy I went here. I will post a follow up after my touch up appointment in May but I am already thrilled with my beautiful, polished new brows! UPDATE I had my touch-up appointment with Bri this past week. This appointment is much faster and just as simple as the first. After looking at the color of my initial treatment, we decided to go a shade darker to account for fading. Bri was professional, friendly and sweet as usual and I am so pleased with the finished results! My brows are bold but natural and I am already getting so many compliments. I can't wait to see how they heal up. This is a wonderful salon, I cannot recommend enough!

I did A LOT of research on brows and technique prior to landing on Cosmetic Tattoo Centers social…read moremedia.  I FB messengered them late one night and they replied (amazing customer service from the start!) They answered my 101 questions, and every reply led me to choosing them as the place I was going to trust with tattooing my face (this IS a big deal!) I booked for early Saturday morning quite easily online and deposited my appointment. Brianna gave me a warm welcome inside the immaculate, sweet little boutique shop - only two chairs, one client at a time, and following all Covid precautions.  We spent about 30 minutes talking about my brows and my expectations. I had purposely grown out my natural brows for months prior, so my true brow shape/size would be evident.  Brianna gave me her professional advice on shape and custom color, and we came to a mutual decision what would be best for me, combo microblading and powder brow.  She measured and drew over my face to get the best symmetry possible, and applied a numbing solution. (Keeping in mind that most faces are not perfectly symmetrical.) She guided me through every stroke of the process and she was warm and comforting.  A little over 90 minutes later she gave me the mirror and I was THRILLED! Aftercare instructions were printed out for me, as well as a balm required while brows are on the mend! My healing process was painless. I never had "pain" during the procedure or after. Best description is that it felt like my brows were sunburned.  The sensation of the actual tattooing wasn't painful, just felt like pressure and scratching. My follow up appointment was 5 weeks later, after all initial healing and where Brianna did "fine tuning". 60 more minutes of lengthening and widening, and I was amazed by my result. They are a beautiful compliment to natural full brow, but better! If you're fortunate enough to have her do your brows, let the pro do what she does best.  She has amazing instincts and her artistry was remarkable. If you can book your appointment today do it. The gal is in high demand. And you want your brows to be healed totally (4 weeks) before summer gets here!  I promise you, Brianna is the cosmetic tattoo artist for you! -Sheri
