My spouse and I went for the Friday the 13th special. It was a bit chaotic but they had did have the best deal in town. I was there for a tattoo and 2 piercings! First for both. Drama did my tattoo and she was so sweet. I was nervous to high hell but it went so smooth! I got my piercing done by Joel. Nostril and helix. I was also scared for this but he talked me through it and I took his suggestions and I am so happy. The general vibe of the are was great! Everyone seemed happy to be working. I will def come back when my piercings heal to change em out! read more

Got my helix pierced with Joel yesterday and it was a breeze. I'd never had a professional piercer or needle-based piercing done before and so Joel walked me thru each step as he did it. I really appreciated how individually packaged and sterilized everything was. If I ever get another piercing, this is where I'll go! read more

Kevin does my tattoos and has taken care of me every time, I'm very happy with the art he does for me. The vibe in the shop is top notch, with chill music or gnarly 80s horror movies on the TV. I love going here and relaxing, getting tatted and shootin the sh*t about wrestling and horror movies. Kevin is the man, book a tattoo with him now- his Instagram is @atomickevin read more

Got my septum pierced and nostril jewelry change about a week ago by Lea. I love it soooo much. The piercing was painless going through. I've never had someone pierce me and it be painless! She really knows what she's doing. It looks great. Highly recommend her for piercings! read more

Visited from MD to get a wrist tattoo with my siblings and they were all very nice, accommodating, and eager to provide quality service. They took the time to adjust the tattoo like we truly wanted. No long waits even for walk-ins. Very grateful and happy with the results. Shoutout to my tattoo artist Hambone who was very kind and gentle. read more

Randy did my friends tat and put the wrong letter when he literally had a picture of what it's supposed to say. Made him pay 70 more to fix it. Ridiculous people and place don't go there. read more

Atomic Tattoos - Tattoo Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Got my ear lobes pierced here. The place was nice and clean and the staff specifically the piercer, Lea, was helpful and professional.

I can't remember the piercers name to save my life but he was absolutely amazing, I came in to get my nipples re-pierced an hour before closing time and he was very quick and made the experience a breeze. Very professional and great conversation, will be back soon for a tattoo. 10/10 recommend. read more

I got two piercings and everyone was so nice and comforting. The entire "vibe" of the place was calming and nice despite it being a tattoo shop. I was even given special piercings to help the healing process! Would definitely recommend for both tattoos and piercings. read more

Had two piercings with Lea @poutypiercings and she was amazing! Very clean and knows what she's doing. Will go to her for all my piercing needs and recommend her to everyone! read more

I was a walk-in for an industrial piercing and I had a great experience. The piercer helped me quickly and gave me good pointers on where to buy high-quality jewelry after it healed. They are professional and good at what they do. Definitely recommend! read more

I've had both of my tattoos and my nose piercing done here. The artists and piercers are all really nice, and I've never had any problems or heard of anyone having problems with Atomic. The thing I like most is how clean it is. I've never been to other shops where I feel as safe as I do there. It doesn't feel like a shady tattoo establishment. Everyone is professional and it feels sterile. Minus one star because my nose piercing was pretty expensive in comparison to other shops. I had no problem getting out my wallet for my tattoos, but there were other piercers in the area that had piercings for a lot cheaper. I only went here because of that trust factor with this business. I guess I figured since needles were involved, I was better safe than sorry. read more

Ma boy got a tat and RANDY made a typo on the name. Like there was a picture and everything and he still couldn't spell. Dude made him pay for it to get it fixed but it still ruined and looks dumb now. Dude smells too. read more

I recently got a Medusa piercing in Atlanta where I live, and unfortunately when I came down to Florida for vacation the swelling became unbearable, luckily I called this place and the guy I spoke to over the phone alleviated my worries concerning my piercing. He told me to come in the next day and he'll fix it for free. Great experience. He fixed the piercing and the swelling went down tremendously. My piercing is healing well all thanks to these guys! read more

The first time I went here was to get my nose piercing and the guy who took care of me had great customer service. He even said when I'm ready to get it changed I could go to them and they would change my piercing. Today I went back to get a new piercing and I was taken care of by someone different. She was VERY rude when I asked a question; compared to the last guy who took care of me their that answered my questions thoughtfully. It seemed like she didn't want to do her job because they were watching pirates of the Caribbean. read more

Extremely picky customer certified!!! We had 2 separate tattoos done by HECTOR and absolutely love them ! Thin and elegant - just like asked! Pleasure to deal with a professional-perfectionist . Thank you Hector! Can you believe it we will be back!! read more

Had a great experience!! Went in for a nose piecing.. had such a great visit I will be back to get a tattoo..

Told me to come in at 4. We get there and the girl finishes a simple watch and rose design. Takes her 1 hour n 20 minutes to do then tells me shes not confident she can do the tattoo in 3 hours. Seriously? 3 hours to do a 1 hour at the max tattoo? Im covered in tats and obviously this girl has no experience and does not know what she is doing. I've had a 10 inch intricate tattoo done in an hour. She wasted my time and my time is valuable especially after i drove in traffic from Tampa and i told them it needed to be done today. Atomic says walk ins welcome but this is a lie,walk ins welcome if u come in at noon or just to say hello. They werent even busy. Lazy employess. But im glad we went to another shop bcuz the artist laughed when i told him this story and said that it can be done in less than 2 hours. I do not recommend a place where an artist is not confident and a place the seats are empty. I feel sorry for the owner bcuz he has no idea that lazy humans and inexperienced ppl are ruining his/ her business. How do they pay rent there? yes im upset that they wasted my time and now the artist spent an hour and 20 minutes fiddling around on the design all from an ipad which a 5 yr old could have done in 10 minutes. All she did was copy and paste and then gave me bullshit like i still have to get ready and get the ink etc. Thats hilarious bcuz ive sat through over 100 hours in tattoos and she needs time for what? Now she has 3 hours to twiddle her thumbs while some place else makes the money. I would not go to this location if they tatted me for free and gave me 200 dollars.lol read more

got my nose pierced, way cheaper then expected. The guy who did my piercing was so funny and nice. He quickly got it over with, with minimal pain. if i plan to get any other piercing this is the place i'd go to! read more

James did my first tattoo and he was great ! Customer service in overall was awesome in Atomic Tattoos. :D I'll be going back there for more tattoos ;) read more

My tattoo came out great, and so did my moms. The only problem is that there were no aftercare instructions. I already had a tattoo so I knew what to do, however, my mom didn't. Other than that I'm not complaining but it would've been nice to know how to care for it, the last place I went gave instructions. The price is fair, and it is clean. read more

Looks great on the inside mainly just go for one particular artist but have seen the others work they look great too have never been dissatisfied with any tattoos I've gotten read more

Kyra is great. She pierced my septum back in November and it's healing nicely. I was really scared to get a big needle in my nose, but I barely felt anything. She knows what she's talking about. :) read more

Best piercing experience Ive ever had and Ive had quite a few! The guy who did my nose piercing whose name was Matty was such a cool guy. He was goofy and funny and made the experience so enjoyable yet he was still able to be super professional he knows what he is doing! Me and my friend were both so nervous but after he was talking and laughing with the both of us we felt SO much better. Very cool guy I would 10/10 recommend! I wish I had gotten all my piercings here!!! read more

I just recently moved here from LA so I relied on Yelp to find me a cool spot where I can get pierced. Although this place is in a sketchy area it was worth the visit! The second I walked in they greeted me and were very friendly. I felt comfortable and had a awesome conversation I didn't feel as nervous getting my nose pierced. It was done clean and quick. I'm definitely coming back for more body modification! read more

Joel is an awesome piercing professional. He has always done a phenomenal job on all of my piercings. I've been coming to see him for over two years and He is the best! He has done 40 of my piercings. Joel is a perfectionist, always courteous, makes sure I'm comfortable, the environment and tools are always sterile, He is creative, and easy to talk to. I Definitely recommend Joel for all of your piercing needs! read more

DO NOT GO HERE FOR A GENITAL PIERCING. DONE INCORRECTLY, WASTE OF MONEY. I wanted to get a VCH piercing and the reviews at this place seemed great, for both tattoos and piercings. I went to them back in mid February when I was in town for the MOSI Ren Fest. The atmosphere was fine, nothing too special. They seemed busy, with people sitting on the benches in the front of the shop, besides the broken one. I was greeted and asked what I was looking to have done. I asked for a VCH and the gentleman immediately knew what I was referring to with the acronym. Immediately, I felt comfortable, After filling out forms, we went to the back. I forgot the name of my piercer, he had this pretty cool long beard going for him, was well mannered. Since this was a genital piercing, I did a lot of research before deciding to get one. This guy did NOTHING I expected. The only good thing I can really applaud him for is his constant changing of gloves after touching and opening his equipment and needles. He didn't check if I had the correct anatomy to have this particular piercing, and even if he did check it out while my legs are spread, he didn't performed the "Q-Tip" test to determine where the right placement would be. He marked 2 dots, and just went for it. No warning, no "take a deep breath". Took me a little by surprise. It didn't hurt too badly. My piercer also almost forgot to tell me how to take care of it. It looked fine, but I was still skeptical. I'm no expert and went along with it. It was more expensive than what they originally told me over the phone. I was quoted "$70" and charged "$100". Despite feeling rushed, a get in and get out job, the piercer's attitude was professional but chill so I tipped him $20. After I went home back to Lakeland, I was very skeptical of the placement. Turns out, it indeed was NOT a true VCH piercing, but a simple surface one that LOOKED like a hood piercing. I called back voicing my concern and was hung up on. I also called to asked what gauge I was pierced at, and no one knew the first 2 times I called. I finally got an answer on my 3rd attempt weeks later, and it was 16 gauge, which is also considered incredibly small. 2 months in, I noticed the skin between curve bar to become shorter. I called to ask if this was a sign of my body rejecting it, and no one cared. All they said was "I guess". Unprofessional of the kid who answered the phone and didn't know what a vertical clitoral hood piercing was. I didn't even use the acronym on him. Needless to say, my body rejected the piercing. OVERALL Pro: Clean Con: Incorrect piercing (gave me a surface piercing that APPEARED to be a VCH, and NOT a TRUE VCH like i wanted) Was not informed how to take care of it until I asked before walking out the door. Shallow surface pierce (contributed to my body rejecting it 3 months later) Charged more than what I was quoted. Incorrect technique to the VCH piercing. Felt like a rush job for quick money. Customer service was awful AFTER I called with questions and concerns many times after. read more

Went in for a nose piercing. Super friendly staff, clean environment. Travis did my piercing and he's a cool dude. Funny, quick and knowledgeable. I highly recommend. read more

I went here to get a tattoo a few months ago and must have got the shops number one jerk off. The artist claimed he was a pro and to trust him. The tattoo was fine when it was first done but the next day when the bandage came off it was crooked and lopsided, the lining was horrible, and I've been told by other artists that he had dug in too deep. I am very disappointed and I do not recommend this place to anyone. If you decide to go here do not let the skinny Randy do your tattoo. PLEASE BEWARE. read more

Phenomenal customer service! James did my tattoo and he was great. Super nice and really awesome. I'll be going back to see him for some more work. Definitely a hidden gem in temple terrace! read more

I've given this time to heal and had more work done elsewhere, so here goes. In mid April of 2019 I called and asked if the piercer was able to do daith and Tragus piercings. Of course. That was a good step. Pricing seemed fair over the phone, I was quoted 180$ for 2 daith and 2 Tragus piercings. I went to the shop the next day and had the piercings done by Matty. Nice guy, but the piercings have had problems. These are the only piercings I've had that have been so rough to heal. When pushing the needles, it felt like he struggled, applying great pressure and I've never had that issue even with nose and cartilage piercings. Manipulating the jewelry was also a time consuming and roughly handled situation. Both were basic shop jewelry, CBRs and curved barbells. I currently have bleeding from both daith piercings and scarring (at time of review 10 weeks post piercings) Tragus piercings are finally getting better now that jewelry was changed to a better size. After all was through, I was charged 190$ not the 180$ quoted. While waiting for the piercing to begin as I filled out the paperwork, there was another customer in there who had apparently been looking to get a tattoo, but was uncertain of what to get. He left to 'shop around' and no sooner than he exited, the tattoo staff berated and trashed the guy. Then they went about trashing yelp reviews after I was asked where I heard about them from, which was yelp. Not exactly a pleasant atmosphere. Two of them were genuinely angry about it. Overall, I wish I'd gone elsewhere for these as other shops charge about the same and watching more videos online show much smoother process of getting these piercings. read more

I had recently moved to Tampa & was looking for a local artist so I didn't have to travel far every time I want to get tattooed. While the staff was friendly & inviting, their quality of work says otherwise. The artist messed up my tattoo & I ended up traveling to my main artist to get it fixed. This is not my first bad experience with Atomic Tattoos. I've had 2 prior (only tattooed this time). 3rd time's a charm, no more Atomic. read more

I have several tattoos but this was the best experience I have ever had. The staff was super and very professional. I was helped quickly and actually got my tattoo done right then. It only took a few minutes for Kevin to draw up the design I wanted and we were finished in no time at all. Exceptional job done exactly how I wanted it. read more

Showed up to get a peircing and ended up waiting outside from 11:00-11:10 with no one there and a locked door. Tried calling three times and no one answered. Won't go back. read more

When selecting a place to get my nose pierced the most important thing to me was a sterile environment and this place is the cleanest tattoo/piercing shop I have ever been in. The staff was professional and friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Bad experience for me. I went in to get my upper lip pierced. Both sides. Already have the bottom done by another shop. I understand I already have many piercings but you are still supposed to offer follow up care. At least tell me what I should do to care for it. I had to ask him and seemed like he wasn't really sure. After the first dat my first piercing fell apart and came out. Wth? Figured shitty jewelry or just didn't tighten it enough. U couldn't get it back thru the hole so I called the next day. I told them what happened and said I would come back for a replacement piercing, on their dime. Not my fault. Nope. He told me that wouldn't happen but I was welcome to come in and they would look at it. Ok? Well the next night same thing with the second piercing just came apart and fell out. Seriously? I fixed this one myself and once I made sure it was tight I haven't had a problem. Needless to say I will NOT get pierced here again. Not very friendly, no humor AT ALL. Just not the best experience I've had. And they are pricey for not quality work. I don't mind paying but damn at least make my visit worth your time and my money. I reccomend Art Avenue Tattoos on Waters ave. Casey is great but busy. read more

It's too expensive, 50$ for one small tattoo, seriously? It just too much . The line was really huge, we had to wait for 7 hours under the sun. It was waste of my time and my whole day . read more

I am extremely disappointed. When I went in there the guy that was next in rotation had broken English, so I thought he said $15 since it was a simple infinity symbol. Got done and guy at desk said $50, I thought it was much but I wanted it, it has been a week and I have been waiting for it to heal to see if it got better, not only are the lines uneven there are blotches in the color, and it's only one color! I will never recommend this place! Now have to go spend more money to get it fixed.....on a simple tattoo:( read more
