Do you do UV tattoos?

Hi Annie! We do have a couple artists who can do UV tattoos.

How much for a septum?

Hey! The septum is $60 jewelry included.

Would you recommend a daith piercing for migraines? I've done a lot of research but I've never found a definitive answer. If I were to be pierced it would be here. Thanks!

Hey Kirby! Yes it will most definitely help alleviate migraine pain. It's an accupressure point that alleviates pressure. If you're interested in getting it done come on by and Dan will help you out. Thank you for reaching out!

We went in that night and met with Valerie to discuss what she wanted with inspiration pics as a start. Valerie brought back a great design and after a few tweaks, she hit it out of the park!

A close friend of mine and I came here in January. Getting piercings together was our third stop…read moreduring our girls day in the OC. Unfortunately, parking at The Camp isn't all that great. I have yet to find a spot by myself so I just bit the bullet for paying for valet. We came in an hour before closing and were greeted by Samara - who did a wonderful job getting us set up for our spontaneous piercings! We were then directed to Lucas. He did my friend's tragus piercing and my dual lobe piercings. I haven't been pierced since I was a baby, but Lucas made the whole experience real easy. Overall, he's a super chill guy that makes an effort to strike up a conversation and make you feel comfortable about the whole process. Other than the fleeting hot sensation from the initial pinch, the process was pretty painless. Bonus: we got some sick stickers featuring his bull dog Everyone we met at the shop was friendly, knowledgable, and professional. Their website is also a fantastic resource in case you don't ask all of your questions about healing in-person. My friend and I truly felt like we were in great hands so kudos to everyone for setting such an easygoing vibe. I've been back a few times since January for a quick monthly check and to get my piercings downsized recently. As expected, I was met with top-tier customer service, true to the shop's personal brand. I feel confident coming back for future piercings. Lastly, if you're downsizing - I highly recommend making an appointment. I was in and out (no more than 15 minutes), but I was surrounded by 4+ walk ins. It's really easy to do so over their website vs. calling.

My appt time was 10:30am on Sat 2/21/26, and they asked me to be there 10 min early, so I was. They checked me in and pointed me to the couches, then just ignored me for 45 min, and finally took me 50 min after my scheduled appt time. No offer for water or coffee/tea, no acknowledgment about the wait (until the very end of my wait). They opened at 10am and weren't doing a damn thing the entire 50 min wait! Two were playing chess when I walked in. When they finally took me, they didn't inquire about my "why" regarding the piece; they just asked for a description and some inspiration examples. They then drew up the design digitally, which was good but not epic. I was only getting black and grey. The price... $2,500 for 8-16 hrs in the chair. Wtf. Even if the piece takes 16 hrs (which I don't think it will), it comes to $156.25 per hr, before tip. Umm, that seems rather steep to me. Their work, from what I've viewed, is good. Studio is professional. Their handling of me for this appointment was offensively impersonal and unprofessional. I will never go back, and hope this review hits a button for them on their lack of care on the customer experience.

Little did we know that we were about to meet the sweetest tattoo artist we could've ever wished for. This was my daughter's first tattoo for her 18th birthday.

The before and after care was amazing! She always checked in with my daughter to make sure that she was OK during the tattoo. Our conversations flowed, and we both felt so connected to Charlot. It felt as if we just met an angel without wings on earth. Please do not hesitate for one second to choose Charlot at Inc Therapy Studio for your next tattoo.

And he doesn't even know me, but I felt like he knew me. He obviously has the gift of prayer. I was scared of the pain but it was ok actually even without any numbing cream. Anyways he even recommended I shade it in and it became even more beautiful! I know it may seem silly and girlish but I love it!
