We found Explosive Tattoo in Salisbury and couldn't have been happier with our experience. We were a walk-in group of four. Cole tattooed my sister-in-law and me, and Robbi tattooed my brother and my husband. Both guys were super professional, friendly, and did an awesome job! We're all really happy with how our tattoos turned out. The shop was really clean and in great condition, and everyone made us feel comfortable. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience, especially since our original plans fell through. We're glad we found this place and would definitely recommend Explosive Tattoo! If we're ever back in the area, we'll definitely stop in again!

Nice little shop in the middle of nowhere. I lived in Salisbury for a couple of years, and…read morehonestly it is the armpit of Maryland. At best it is a stopover for those running late for Ocean City. I guess it is a college town as well. Surprisingly, there is a small faction of social outcasts that turned up in Salisbury and man what a group of cool people they are. They do things like piercing and tattooing and partying...They are exactly what the Bible thumpers on DelMarVa need, people to bring this this left behind part of the US in to the modern age. Crucial Tattoo had just finished remodeling when I had moved there, so I couldn't tell you what the old one was like. The shop takes up two units of the building they are in. The front of the house has the standard sampling of the artists tattoo's, magazines for inspiration, really comfortable couches just in case you have to wait for your artist to get to you, fashionable clothing for people who like tattoo's, and body jewelry. One of the cases has some old masks that came from the orient, which are awesome...it is too bad they aren't for sale. That back of the house is where all the magic happens. There is a room for piercing, and a few chairs for tattooing. Everything is clean. All the artists use disinfecting cleaner, gloves, and autoclaves. Usually the artist and the customer are the only people allowed in the back. Once in awhile the owners like to have special days for frequent and favorite customers. Usually a small selection of appetizers and finger food and a good amount of socializing...plus good deals on tattoo's by talented artists. I highly recommend Casey O and Erik from personal experience.

Thankfully I had Scott as my piercer who explained that aligning two piercings facing the same direction on my 3D potato-chip surface of an ear takes real skill, care, and consideration. Thankfully Scott had all of these, and I'm really grateful to have stumbled upon this shop. Scott was exceptional in explaining the whole process and prepared me well for the big ouch and the aftercare. I really worried about the healing process because of various reddit posters, however the magic spray (hypochlorous acid + saline) he sent me home with has made the recovery a breeze. I've had the piercing for a week, and I forgot it was there after the first 36 hours. No inflammation or any signs of irritation. I'm only going to Scott for any future work. The only con of coming to Scott is that you'll want more piercings because he does such a good job and made the recovery so easy. He's also a cool and courteous dude. 10/10
