    Nick was incredible. Very sociable guy. Down to Earth, friendly, and professional artist. He did a fantastic job and made me feel very comfortable!

    I could not express how happy I was when I left this tattoo shop! I was looking for awhile to find a good, reliable shop with trustworthy artists. I got super lucky and Mark was my tattoo artist. I don't even know where to start, he was the best. Very friendly, made me feel comfortable and made sure my tattoo was perfect and exactly how I wanted it before I left. this was my 4th tattoo and I wish I could've had Mark do the other 3!! I will definitely be coming back here for the rest of my tattoos. The rest of the crew were very friendly too and everyone was so fun to talk to!! A very clean and organized place as well, which always makes you feel comfortable. Most definitely a 10/10 for Empire Tattoos I'll never go anywhere else! Thank you Mark. (:

    Amazing customer service and good shows to watch while youre getting done. The people here are friendly especially twoard women, which is hard to find. Andrew did a great job on mine and my boyfriends couple tattoo. He hand drew them and then set up an appointment for us to come in and get it done. He works by the hour so estimates will be very rough. Love this tattoo and will come back for more. Thankyou for all of youre help and service!

    Mark did an amazing job on my kraken tattoo. I came in one day, told Mark I wanted a kraken tattoo and a week later he had it sketched out. It took a couple of visits but everyone that has seen it has loved it and I could not be happier. Mark is a great artist and I will not let anyone else tattoo me in the future. The shop is clean and very comfortable. If it is your first or tenth tattoo like mine, this is the place to go.

    I was here a few days ago and got a small tattoo on my ankle. I was with a few other people who got tattoos as well. Well when I got home my ankle was swollen (which I expected) but the next day under my tattoo was ridiculously swollen. I have other tattoos and have never had this issue. I'm given them three stars because everyone else just had the typical after tattoo swelling. I'm not looking to throw the artist under the bus because im sure they do great work, but the tattoo is covered for that reason. But at the end of the day I can't say I will personally be back here.

    See all

    My best friend wanted to get his eyebrow re-pierced and he found atmosphere tattoo online. We went…read morein on Wednesday afternoon and the piercer hadn't gotten there yet. So we came back about an hour or so later and ended up having to still wait a little bit but, they have a large, comfortable, and very clean waiting area! They also have water bottles available to customers, which I think is smart at any tattoo shop. Everyone was super nice. They run the facility very professionally. By the time the piercer got there, he had a few people waiting other than us but was great about taking his time with my friend. Chris was very nice, professional and extremely clean. He made sure to ask my friend what exactly he wanted and it was quick and painless and affordable! I am loyal to my tattoo artist but if I ever needed somewhere new to check out I would definitely go back. I plan on returning to that piercer to get my nose done! So if you're looking for a nearby trustworthy tattoo shop, definitely check them out. I'll share a few pictures of the waiting area. I did not get pictures during the piercing process because it's a pretty small room.

    After getting three piercings here, I can say that my interactions have been nothing but top notch…read more I fully plan on going back for more piercings!! Thanks to all of them for being professional and helpful! As a response to the comment by F.U. from 2 weeks ago: I was wondering if you would review via Yelp. I was in the studio the day you and your child were in and was mortified by how rude you were to the piercer and staff. So much so, in fact, that I apologized for you. You're welcome. You were determined to have the piercer tell you what you wanted to hear, rather than what their training and certifications has taught them. Shame on you for treating people the way you did, in front of your child. What an example to set.

However, from the initial phone call to walking into my recent appointment, the energy felt completely different. There seem to be new staff members, and unfortunately the experience was not welcoming at all. I'm not sure of the associate's name (it wasn't Alex), but she was noticeably rude throughout my visit. Instead of feeling guided or taken care of, I felt like I was inconveniencing her. There was tension around simple things -- like me wanting to look at the jewelry options or asking about pricing before deciding on a chain. As a customer, that's part of the process. It should feel enjoyable and peaceful, not rushed or begrudging. I value good service and intentional experiences, especially when I'm spending my hard-earned money. This visit felt uncomfortable from start to finish, and I honestly couldn't wait for the appointment to be over. I'm sharing this in hopes that the atmosphere and customer care return to what it once was. Until then, I'll likely hold off on returning.

    I'll admit, I originally planned to get pierced at Rowan Target. After talking with an experienced…read morefriend, she convinced me to go to a real piercing shop and I am so glad I listened. This piercing shop is located inside of a strip mall that is somewhat a journey to find. You walk in and are met with basically what looks like a flea market but indoors! Angels Body Piercing is right at the front. I was so extremely nervous because my main concern with any piercing is cleanliness and sterilization. The last thing I wanted was an infection. Maria was absolutely amazing. Very clean! Changes gloves and a whole wipe down between customers as they should. You're given hand sanitizer to clean your hands. Your ears are properly cleaned with an alcohol swab. All jewelry is packed in their own small sterile packages. My first piercing I had since I was a baby was uneven. Despite that, Maria was able to make my new piercing nice and even! The pain was not bad at all. The earrings are screwed on so they don't get undone. She was quick and so very kind to my nervousness. Maria truly is the best and I would recommend her to anyone. I also appreciate that when I asked a few questions, she made it a point to tell my friend and I that they cannot answer any questions over the phone about the piercings. The reason being is that no pictures or videos are suffice- they want you to come in so they can carefully examine it and direct you as accurate as possble (such as if you must go seek medical attention). This shows to me that they truly care about their customers and are not dismissive and this policy is very ethical! Overall, I loved my experience. I'll be the first to admit- I originally thought it was shady from looking at it at first and was going to back out. I'm glad I didn't because they are all wonderful and they know what they're doing. I guess my only note would be the price point. I referred to their website which was great that it stated $25 per ear, with extra cost for different earrings. I chose to upgrade which added another $15 per ear. No problem. The only issue is that there's an additional cost if you use credit card, I wish this was disclosed on their website. About $10 for both ears. I also had thought that the piercing came along with the care kit that some places usually provide. That was another $25. Plus tip, which I felt was well deserved. All in all, it cost $127.80 which was way higher than I anticipated. Still, it was a great service, and I love my second ear piercing. I have no regrets. Please come support Angels Body Piercing! Ask for Maria, she is the best!
