I just had a simple piercing but had not had one in many years. it was great to walk into a comforting environment and be greeted by Michael. Michael explained the procesure, cost and aftercare thoroughly. I am happy to recommend Elysium read more

I got a sunflower tattoo redone by Katrina . She did a fantastic job. The previous sunflower I had done had sentimental value to me but it didn't have detail that I was looking for. It was also faded. However, she gave me all the details I was looking for in the flower and she made it come to life. I'm so excited for it to heal the next few weeks. Thank you ! read more

Let's start off by saying I'm new to the tattoo industry and never had met up with a tattoo artist before but I saw katrina's work and her reviews that said nothing but positive things. In the emails prior to the conversation was pretty quick and nothing about having to pay or what should I expect when I get there. I was going under the thought that we would talk and I would leave and email her back to schedule an appointment to do a tattoo but not there was so I left my planner at home and I knew i had a lot of appointments lined up and instead of wasting people's time I told her that I did which she didn't seem to have a problem with especially when she took the deposit from me. Let alone i had to remind her who i was and what i was there for. I received one more email from her letting me know the earliest she can do is noon on Saturday (Not meaning that Saturday just the earliest she works on those days) which worked best for me since my husband and I are on the night shift schedule and noon is pushing it since we should be asleep at the time but since Saturday we usually have off we figured that would be a clear time to try to focus on. I understand that it wasn't gonna be schedule anytime soon so when I got home I selected a Saturday even tho I figured she wouldn't have available but could bounce dates off each other to see which one would work best for her and me. Instead I got no response for 7 days which I thought was weird considering her previous respond time wasn't that bad but especially after a deposit had been taken, felt very unprofessional. Lack of communication is key, all it could have took was 10 or 20 seconds within 7 days to go not available on that date and I would have shoot back another email and waited for a response but I didn't get an email back till I pulled the receipt up that I got from the deposit and left a negative review and almost instantly got a email back which was also unprofessional. I love her artwork just not her unprofessional communication and behavior when you ask for a refund. I trusted that she would be great in communication, considering Michael is great with communication and had multiple piercings done by him....I think the screen shots of the email is proof enough of the unprofessional attitude. Even if that is true about the computer issues all she could have done is communicate that with me like "sorry for the inconvenience/at the current moment our computers are down. Try reaching out in x amount of days" Honestly wouldn't have been hard couldn't have use a cell phone with access to email which smart phones do. Also Katrina theres the definition of communication just in case you got confused....Also just a reminder $109 deposit and couldn't have a clear communication. I understand there might not be appointment times soon but 7 days not hearing back from someone who received a deposit is crazy especially if I don't have history with you. I initially waited 5 days before reaching out again just to see if Katrina RECEIVED my email and what it held in it so that why if there's issue with getting the emails there's a perfect opportunity to tell me. I then waited 3 more days. Then requested a refund seeing as the line of communication isn't there on her end. All she would have had to do was update me if there was a problem, I didn't mind waiting for appointment that was schedule like 4 months out just as long as there was clear COMMUNICATION. read more

I truly cannot recommend Michael enough. My appointment started in time and I felt comfortable from the moment I walked in. Michael's professionalism was top notch. The piercing was quick, painless and exactly what I wanted. My favorite part? He marked a couple of placement options and let me pick which one I liked best. Sounds simple, but I've never had that offered before. I also appreciated the saline spray and his willingness to change jewelry (that I brought with me) in my other piercings. read more

Elysium Body Enhancements - FORWARD HELIX piercing was done by Michael. (Not the conch or lobe!) - Tattoo Near Me - Powell, Ohio

Michael was very accommodating in communicating with me with his cellphone as I am Deaf & that made a huge difference with clear communication for the nose piercing service. Admittedly I was nervous because I assumed there was going to be a device that quickly pierces the nostril but it's done by hand. He explained everything every step of the way. The piercing was surprisingly and to my relief very fast and done carefully with care. Nice range of choices of studs' sizes, color, and shape and reasonable prices too. Can ask questions through email to further clarification. Elysium Body Enhancements' office is surprisingly spacious, clean, elegantly decorated and there's free parking too. I'm pleased with the outcome. Worth the trip from where I live as I'm fussy who pierces my body and Michael is the one to go to. read more

Michael pierced my daughters cartilage last year and he was great. When I agreed to let her get a nose piercing this year I only considered going back to him. Very nice, easy to talk to, and does an amazing job. read more

Amazing customer service. I've known Michael since the early 2000 and he's always super helpful, never rushed. He eased my mind as I expected. Epic experience! Thank you. read more

Michael pierced my 7 year old's ears. She howled liked she'd been run through with a broadsword. Guy didn't flinch. Very gentle manner, good with hollering child. Can't recommend enough. Also, suggest having a YouTube video queued up for the yelling. Helped us get both ears done. read more
