I grew up in the industry as my brother used to tattoo in…read morehis younger years, I have been surrounded by artists a better part of my life and have had my share of tattoos. I consider myself a "collector" of sorts and am pretty much covered neck to feet. I have been to many shops and artists throughout my life and there's something so different about this one. I called and had a quick discussion with Vinny. He was attentive and fast to respond. Due to my experience we didn't need to review the care and what to expect experience but we did glance over it. This man is a true professional and you can tell he loves what he does. I showed him what I wanted and even before I got there he had my design and had it in 3 different sizes. He took the time to be sure the size, placement, and design was exactly what I wanted. He quickly got to work and it was quick and amazing. The shop is so clean and each artist had their own room so if you plan on getting a tattoo in a private area or need to be somewhat exposed, the door is closed in each artists private studio. No head-head-banging-rattle-your-brain-kill-your-momma music. Just a real clean, chill experience. I HIGHLY recommend this shop. My only experience was with Vinny, FOR NOW but take the advice of this 57 year old man who's been in countless shops. This place is amazing. You will not be disappointed from the minute you enter, meet the artist and leave with a pristine tattoo. I can't say enough good things about this shop and their staff. Fair pricing too!!! Hard to find nowadays with all so called artists out there. Make a day out of it. Go make an appointment and then go walk around and enjoy Keyport. There was plenty of parking and everyone was so nice. Thank you Tattoo Vinny and the entire Broken Heart crew for a great tattoo and great experience. -Joe D'Agosto

After YEARS of wanting a nose ring and a belly button ring, I finally took the plunge!…read more I called Sanctum up to confirm their policy on jewelry and they informed me that I would have to buy jewelry from them, so I decided to go on Sunday to check out the jewelry offerings. The guy at the counter was SUPER helpful!! He found time for me and my questions even though he had other customers with appointments. I made an appointment for the day after, since they were pretty booked up. When I went in the next day, my heart fell when I realized Chuck would be doing my piercings, instead of Katie! (I read the yelp reviews and one thing was clear - Chuck was to be avoided!) But apparently, I had nothing to worry about, as Chuck was amazing. His no nonsense, you've got this attitude actually kept me from freaking out too much. And even when I freaked out, he was great! I couldn't be happier that I chose Sanctum for my piercings! The cost of jewelry and piercing for belly button and nose, if done together, start at $80. I ended up spending $120 for it.

I got a navel piercing at this studio about a month ago. A few days later, it started pinching and…read moregetting red and irritated. I went back in to see if swapping out for a longer bar would fix the issue. I especially wanted to check it because I was going to be traveling to another country soon. The piercer I met with assured me that it was fine. It was not fine. Later that week, the jewelry started embedding in my skin (yes, it's as gross and horrifying as it sounds). I had to last minute find another piercer while in another country to get it checked. The piercer I went to said I needed to switch out for a longer bar, which is exactly the problem I had gone back to the studio for (this meant I had to pay another couple hundred for new jewelry as well). When she took out the jewelry that I had gotten at Black Moon, she literally gasped and said that she had never seen a professional piercer use such a short bar while the piercing was healing. As soon as it was switched out, it started healing fine. When I got back, I reached out to Black Moon to see if they could do anything to compensate me for the extra cost I incurred from their ignoring the issue with the bar in the first place. They haven't bothered responding. I came to Black Moon because of the glowing reviews, but my experience really doesn't align with them. I guess most of the reviews are about the initial experience of getting pierced (which honestly for me was also uncomfortable and rushed and the male piercer I had kept calling me sweetheart), but the most important factor for a piercing studio to me is how they handle issues when they arise.The jewelry is also really expensive - which I would've considered worth it to have a knowledgeable and experienced piercer - but that was not the case.

That same care carried through the entire appointment -- she explained every step before and after the piercing, and every answer she gave was genuinely knowledgeable and backed by real, scientifically sound reasoning (not just the usual talking points). She's also incredibly professional and patient, and you can tell she really cares about the people she's working on, not just getting through the appointment. And honestly, she has such a great personality and vibe that the whole thing was actually fun, on top of feeling safe and well taken care of. It's rare to find a piercer this meticulous, this good at communicating, and this easy to be around. Honestly the best piercing experience I've had, hands down. I've already sent all my friends her way, and I'll be back for more. If you're looking for a piercer who actually knows their craft and genuinely cares, go see Christy.
