I got both earlobes pierced and I'm very happy with the outcome. This was my first piercing and I…read morewas expecting the jewelry to be cheaper, but I was okay with the price after seeing the care/professionalism that was put into my treatment and jewelry material choice. Jamie was super personable and worked well with me as a first timer. We enjoyed talking about Harry Potter through my appointment! It's been 12 hours and my ears feel great and look perfectly fine. I'm overall very happy with my experience and recommend Jamie to everyone looking for a piercing whether you're a first timer or experienced. The shop was very sterile and Jamie did a great job of explaining what everything was for and how it was handled. My mind was put to ease with the amount of care that went into my piercings. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I have never been inside a real tattoo parlor before. I was blown away with how many types of tiger books there were. I happen to know someone who got their tattoo at this place. I fell in love with their tattoo ideas. So, I decided to come in to make an appointment for this tattoo that I wanted. I had the idea of a Koi fish and a dragon with the water in the background. But, this is what I ended up getting. But this isn't the finished look. The style of tattoo is very clean and I love everything about it.

I visited Smokin' Aces last year to get a very special memorial tattoo as a 50th birthday gift to…read moremyself. I chose Melanie based on recommendations from friends and the work for them that I saw with my very own eyes, as opposed to merely looking at potentially doctored photos on social media. Smokin' Aces & Melanie turned out to be the perfect combination for me! Since this was going to be a permanent memorial in a prominent place, I was being VERY picky--and emotional! Melanie was very understanding and supportive and patient with me. She also gave several recommendations with respect to the natural aging of the tattoo, which I hadn't considered. I am a registered nurse, so I am incredibly critical of cleanliness and aseptic technique. Melanie impressed me with both. I looked around the shop as she worked and I noticed it wasn't just her...the entire place was immaculate. I loved the outcome of my tattoo and a year later, it is still as beautiful with no feathering or bleeding or fading of the ink. My experience with Melanie and Smokin' Aces could not have been better, and I'm already planning for them to do my next tattoo--onceI figure out what I want! On a separate note...I absolutely love that Smokin Aces employs not just Melanie, but several female tattoo artists, all of whom are exceptionally talented! I spoke with two other female artists that day while they worked and saw for myself the quality of their artistry as it was in progress. This profession is not an easy one for women to thrive in or for women to get respect--and the women at Smokin' Aces more than deserve it!
