Allen did my septum piercing a while back, and he picked the perfect jewelry size for my anatomy. It fits so naturally and looks incredible. It's honestly so perfect that even my mom likes it, which is saying a LOT! Lol I recently came back to start a series of forward helix piercings, and once again the experience was amazing! Allen is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and clearly passionate about his craft. He takes the time to make sure everything is right, and you can really tell you're in expert hands. My newest piercing is healing beautifully, and I already can't wait for the next one! The jewelry selection is absolutely stunning, too! They have so many beautiful handmade pieces that are unique & all are of the highest quality & material. You can really appreciate the artistry behind them! The studio itself has such a welcoming, stylish, and upbeat vibe while still feeling super clean and comfortable. It's honestly just a really cool space to be in. Quite simply, this place is the BEST. Amazing experience every single time, gorgeous jewelry, and truly top-tier piercing work. I'll never go anywhere else!

I requested a quote from several vendors and Allen was the first to reply and was super prompt with my follow up questions. At the shop, you can expect a sterile environment, but the vibes are wayyyy cool. Allen was thorough with his explanations and quelled any nerves that I had. He was very knowledgeable and his years of experience was comforting. I ended up with a gold 2mm stud and it looks great. Did it hurt? A little, but I feel like I get hurt when I get up from a long nap, so what do I know. Definitely would recommend this shop and Allen. He's great vibes, funny, super clean and very professional. He even laughed at all my jokes so that a plus for me. Fulfilled my midlife crisis goal.

The process from there was good, they made me feel welcome and comfortable. Sawooli drafted a very cool design with a couple variants to pick from. The tattoo process itself was less painful than my prior tattoo at a different studio even with multi colors; honestly not bad at all for the time needed. Pricing was totally fair for the high quality of work. The shop was clean, and organized with a cool pirate vibe. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. It's a solid studio, My Tattoo came out better than my original intentions.

She walked in sad w her head down and walked out smiling and head held high. Made a huge difference

She is so receptive to making ideas a reality and making sure I was happy with every step of the process. It was easy to work on a design together and schedule an appointment. I asked for these dramatized skulls and she made them custom and so expressive they are adorbs. The design was a combination of clean line work and gradient colors with softer edges. Maisy excelled in both styles and the final piece was immediately impressive and exceeded my expectations. Maisy is also just a genuine and kind person. She donated her time for the tattoo in a fundraiser for a mutual aid org. The time sitting for the tattoo flew by! Maisy is fun to talk with as she is such a good listener and has a huge positive vibration. She made me feel very comfortable and safe physically and emotionally. I love the pieces she did for me, they turned out better than I envisioned and loved the whole experience. I will be back!

We got here and was welcomed by Jazmine who set us up with all the tatts we wanted and some custom ones to to her style and we loved every bit of them. For a small but very humble and friendly shop was more like being family and friends while being there for 2 days getting work done. Everyone is chill including the owner herself and everyone else that we met there. Probably the most enjoyful tatt experience I've had in a long time and I will be coming back when I go back out there. With Westside having a light hand I felt almost nothing while getting my arm done and most of us felt almost nothing. For those of us whom was on their first tattoo got reassured and made sure was ok as the piece was being done. I respect this heavily as a lot of places do not do this anymore. Time was taken and all came out beautifully exactly how we wanted the pieces to be. We even got a few of their flash sale tatts done. We locked in and so did they! If you havnt't already been here I recommend going on a heavy note. Check in and talk to them and get some work done it's worth it! Thank yall for the great experience given to my family!

Marv, one of the piercers, was there and not only was he incredibly reassuring, but he was also hilarious. I got no sleep the night before because I was so scared it was gonna be so painful.

It did not hurt much AT ALL. A 2 outta 10 I would say. Anyway, if you are in the area and want to get a piercing, Marv's your guy!

I just got my septum pierced with Bruce over the weekend and it was a wonderful experience…read more The pricing was extremely transparent and reasonable. I was really nervous after having a horrible first time septum piercing where the piercer pierced my septum crooked, hit the cartilage and then blamed my nose shape. I've wanted a cartilage for quite some time so I decided to get a second opinion and I'm really glad I did. Bruce was extremely knowledgeable and re-assuring. He took a look and told me I could probably get one but he would verify once he was able to check my nose. He was able to immediately determine the septum spot was higher up. The pain was extremely minimal. I really appreciated that Bruce walked me through every step of the process. I'll definitely be back.
