Very knowledgeable (I asked him for advice on one of my piercings I got elsewhere) and very professional. Also, his business card is THE BEST! I highly recommend this business, especially him!

She went in to use it today (*the Gc had a phone # on it, and she called and verified it had $100 on it). Long story short, the owner REFUSED to honor the GC, saying it was too old! Even though it had not been used and the number on the card said it had $100 credit on it. This business is not honest and stole $100. Unbelievable!

Wow!!! This place is great!…read more My daughter and I wanted to get our ears pierced. I called first they answered all my questions. When we got there the process moved quickly, was very clear and everyone was friendly. Pretty good selection of jewelry with lots of options. Everything looked clean and felt private. Desiree did an incredible job! She was very patient, friendly, professional and did an incredible job on all three piercings! We loved all of the art in the gallery and overall look of the place. Instructions for care are given in a pamphlet to take home and emailed to you...very thorough! Overall a great experience...highly recommend!

Why say you take walk-ins when you clearly can't handle walk-ins? There was zero communication from the two front desk workers. When we arrived they never said "we only have one piercer and there's 9 groups in front of you so please know it may take awhile". Even TGIFridays knows how to do that. We have now made an appointment at a parlor in Woodstock GA that takes appointments so my daughter won't be disappointed like this again. If you want to wait on an uncomfortable wooden bench for 3hrs with no updates throughout, go for it, but i won't be coming back.

The woman at the front desk who was very unapproachable with a bunch of facial piercings was the reason I could not return to the shop. I called in a panic because I was not given a heads up. They just told me they would walk me through the aftercare process. I have several tattoos from this artist and it was very unfair because of one person that I was denied to retouch. Her opinion will hurt her business & her coworkers. I worked in the Beauty business for nearly 30 years. This is not how any client should be treated.

The parlor was very clean and offered a comfortable wait while my piercer prepared for me. My piercer was C.J. and she is the absolute best. Before we even began my ear piercing I asked her maybe 30 questions on a future piercing I wanted and she answered them all throughly and patiently without missing a beat. As for the actual piercing experience she was careful in making sure the piercing was placed exactly to my liking. She takes her time making sure you're comfortable during the process, talking you through each step. Even for someone like me with a low pain tolerance, she made it such a calm environment that I didn't even flinch when she pushed the needle through my ear. After she was done she cleaned me up and gave a detailed little speech on proper aftercare and a sheet too. C.J. is super knowledge in her field and I will definitely be going back to her for my next piercing(s)!

Looking at the website, I was immediately drawn to Jinx as a queer person looking to get a nerdy tattoo, and I'm so glad I decided to go with them! The shop itself is very clean and bright with relaxing house music playing. If you're nervous about going to a typical tattoo parlor, definitely consider coming here! Jinx was lovely the whole way through and really took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and knew what was going on every step of the way. I never once felt uncomfortable or unsure in the process, and that was really reassuring as a tattoo newbie. Their work was exactly what I wanted and I am so glad I decided to take the plunge and finally get tattooed. I will 10000% be back for something else by Jinx! (I'll add photos once healed :))

If you're looking for a custom piece in Marietta, you have to see Oz Sanchez at Mystic Owl. After…read moreresearching artists both locally and on the West Coast, I flew out from Oregon specifically to book a day session with Oz while visiting my husband in Atlanta and it was worth every mile. Oz took our initial concept and elevated it into a true work of art. Not only is he a brilliant artist, but he's also a total professional and a fantastic communicator. He has an incredibly light hand, which made the long session much more comfortable than I expected. He checked in on us constantly, kept us laughing all day, and was even flexible enough to squeeze in a tiny, last-minute dinosaur! The talent throughout the entire shop is clearly top-tier, and the high-end atmosphere makes the experience even better. This is by far the best tattoo I've ever received. Oz is a master of his craft, and we will definitely be back. Highly, highly recommend!

I've had 9 tattoos and 11 piercings over the last 20 years so I have been to a few shops! I stumbled upon Olde School when I wanted to get my septum pierced and Jeremy was AWESOME! He's so friendly and also quick, I barely felt the piercing.. sincerely! Every time I've been to the shop he and the gals at the front are welcoming and smiling. While checking out I looked at the artwork for Ash Munn and decided to come back for a small tattoo to see how we could collaborate for a big piece I have wanted for a long time. I got a tiny matching tattoo with my husband and during the session I talked about what I was looking for in a back piece. Let me just say, she LISTENED and delivered! She captured all of the themes/elements/textures I wanted and wrapped them into a beautiful piece of artwork! I always feel so comfortable in her chair, for example, my first line work session I was booked for the day but tapped out after a few hours... unlike most artists she was so accommodating and was kind. My next two sessions I got into a deep trance state almost and the feeling was cathartic and therapeutic, exploring deep pain and feeling the physical representation of that emotional state... I trusted her as my guide on this dark journey and I felt seen and supported. She is a fantastic artist and also is quick, which helps a lot! We still have a few sessions to go but here is the progress so far! Highly recommend this shop/Ash

I was wary about getting my first tattoo in a relatively foreign environment because I don't know many people here, so I didn't have any references or suggestions to go by... let me just tell you, I could NOT have had a better first-tattoo experience! The receptionist is very lively and fun, not to mention an outstanding artist himself. He kept my fiancé and I busy and entertained for hours while we waited for our tattoos. The only reason the wait was long was because they were doing a charity drive for Christmas; a really good deal for the customer, an amazing deal for a kid in need of toys somewhere out there. Shahki, our artist, was a very intent and focused man. I could tell he was incredibly passionate about his work. I received a compass tattoo, it took about an hour, and the pain and procedure was kept to an ABSOLUTE MINIMUM due to his professionalism and what I would consider a relaxed environment. We talked quite a bit during the process and he was very polite and engaging. Overall, I wish I could give this place 100 stars. Great people, great work and great environment. Give this place a shot! You won't regret it!
