This shop is HUGE with tattoos upstairs, Piercings downstairs, and tons of artists to choose from. My friend got a little tattoo, which was pretty decently priced. The artist made the design and had it done, expertly shaded in less than 40 minutes. My piercing was a little pricey, but it was done fast, professionally, and was a great experience overall.

Especially if those experiences are integrated into their piercing practices as a whole. I as everybody else have the right to my opinion and what happened to us in their place of business. Here's a couple red flags I've noticed throughout the appointment. 1. They did not check the form for allergies nor did the front desk person tell the body piercer about the allergies that my friend who got pierced expressed to them about Latex. Mistakes happen but can be something that depending on the persons severity to the allergy could harm somebody. 2. They use the same marker on multiple clients, they claim to "sterilize" it by soaking it in a chemical but the marker touching multiple people on their skin is unsanitary even if they do alcohol the persons body before placing the mark. 3. The piercer had an open energy drink in their room, non water drinks in a "sterile" environment are unsanitary. 4. When they reset up the tray after laying latex gloves on it, they chemically treated the tray again however didn't wear gloves when laying down the cover for the tray and other items. 5. The piercer after piercing my friends lip ran the used needle back through the fresh hole to transfer the jewelry rather than use a taper, this is painful to the person getting pierced and also dangerous to the piercer if somehow they accidentally get poked with it. Once a needle is used it should not be put back in through the persons body, it's just pure gross. When asked if it was possible for them to use a taper they simply stated that they were not trained that way. 6. They do not use saline solution/clean your piercing after piercing you, they will apply dry cotton swabs and dry paper to your piercing to stop the bleeding. It's unnerving that they do not provide this kind of aftercare, not only is a fresh piercing in need of some kind of moisture but rubbing a dry cotton on it is super irritating. They will tell you to use antibacterial soap on the outside and give you some salt in a cup to make your own saline at the end of the appointment. I'd like to share that this studio has some things about it that make it charming, the overall ambiance is old school tattoo parlor with beautiful pin ups everywhere. Knowing the price point of the this studio with their jewelry included "surgical steel", you genuinely get what you pay for which is as the consumer I can take full responsibility for. Everybody has the right to perform SAFE and ETHICAL body art, at this studio it's very straight to the point. They were upfront about the pricing and the jewelry they used when asked. Customer service isn't a priority here, I could tell that the person in the front didn't have her heart in the practice of body art or the customers safety in mind. The piercer was kind and reassuring, I could tell she was a little annoyed when I asked lots of questions and asked for alternative methods. After asking about the marker they were quick to give me an answer as to why it's "okay" rather than offer a different solution when they would tell we were second guessing the experience. This made us feel like this business wasn't open to feedback nor willing to "hear it". It's hard to see the business owner be unkind to people who have had negative experiences in their business, if this is type of business you run should be accepting of this feedback and tell people straight up "you get what you paid for" rather than ask they speak with you first before leaving a bad review. I'm sorry that our experience was so poor, hopefully in the future this studio can improve and make the changes to keep their customers safe.

Went there and City my tattoo artist had good work but I was already feeling nervous with his attitude while he rushed to eat his lunch to do my tattoo. I should have walked away then but was with a friend and wanted to do something fun. I let city know I have especially sensitive skin and he sarcastically responded that all tattoos hurt when that isn't true as this isn't my first one. He was not only rude but while I was on the chair I was the only one who asked for breaks for myself. When I was twitching and trying to hold on he annoyedly asked if I needed to get up. I just wanted my shit done and could hold on the pain. Y'all he didn't even get me any aftercare instructions and was invalidating my pain from the beginning to the end. I let the workers know and city texts me apologizing saying he'd fix it but that doesn't fix an already broken trust between client and artist. Looked cool at the end but because of lack of instructions and more my tattoo ended up burning me and I had to get help from several other tattoo friends and artists. Didn't ask for my money back or for a fix because I don't want my experience to be tied to that. Red has a great vibe and he was my piercer. I wouldn't want to tank his greatness with city's carelessness for me.

Back in July, 2023, I went to My Religion Tattoo to have a "book" and the word "READ" tattooed on…read morethe back of my left hand, plus the word "PLAY" tattooed above the "musical note" I already had on the back of my right hand. The tattooist was Marcus. Everything looked fine when they were finished (Photos 1 & 2), and a month or so later I returned for a touch up on both words, as the lettering had begun to spread and lose definition. The book and note were fine. Shortly thereafter, though, I noticed some swelling on both words and went back to My Religion, where--as far as I can remember--I was told that some swelling was to be expected and to just wait. Flash forward several more months (I'm guessing December, 2023) and the "swelling" had become so prominent (Photos 3 & 4) that it interfered with a photoshoot I was involved with (Even makeup couldn't disguise it--it looked like embossed stationery!) And, as far as I can tell, it continues to get worse. So, later that month I returned again to My Religion and was told that what I was experiencing was probably due to an allergy to the red ink--of which I most certainly was not informed initially--and that nothing, really could be done about it. The "possibility" of laser surgery correcting it was mentioned. And, that was it. I asked my dermatologist about this and they said nothing could be done. I'm especially concerned that the words will eventually become unreadable! So, I have two complaints: One, Marcus should have mentioned that *some* people were allergic to the mercury in red ink, and I certainly would have considered a different color; and, two, some sympathy from the person I spoke in December with would have gone a long way toward mollifying me.
