Two of my friends and I came in for a total of 6 piercings I…read moregot two snake bites My friend got an eyebrow piercing And the other got two angel bites and a vertical labret Since having my piercings done, I removed them the next day because I hated them so much Both of them were directly in the middle of my lip pretty much perfectly lined up with my two front teeth. That's how close together they were. And they were uneven one was placed directly on my lip line and one was below, so the jewelry didn't set evenly The friend who got the two angel bites and the Labret One of the angel bites was uneven as well and the vertical Labree was placed so high you can't see it when her lips are closed I understand that I could have changed the placement of the dots But in all honesty, I trusted the professional to place them I wasted my money and now I have to get them redone I wasn't planning on saying anything until I realized that I never received my ID back from them So I called and sure enough they had mine and my friends ID I would understand and take responsibility. Had it just been mine and maybe I forgot. But two ? That means they neglected to return them to us. And made no effort to contact us to return them I'm very upset with my experience

Went in right as they were closing for a small quick tattoo. The artist who did my tattoo was nice…read morebut cannot blend or do thick lines. If you're looking cheap unblended work this place is for you. I shared the photo of what I wanted vs what I got. Notice the thinner line work, the non blending, the mouth is thicker on one side, the color itself is spotty the eyelash even looks off. I will be going into a different shop once it's healed to get it relined and the color fixed. This tattoo cost $150 Typically I do not write reviews, however I went in with my boyfriend and he impulsively paid for a tattoo he would receive the next day by Betty herself. He prepaid $700 (this included mine) once he received the drawing which is also in the photos and its more like Jafars lantern than a gothic vintage vibe we decided to not go with this shop. They are now REFUSING to give back his $500. (700-$150 my tattoo and $50 for his deposit/sketch) We are being RIPPED OFF for $500. And will be taking them to small claims court. DO NOT BRING YOUR BUSINESS TO THESE SCAMMERS. Only do business with this shop if you pay when the services are done and you don't care about quality. Small

Never get your piercings here is an understatement. In November, I got three piercings: belly/navel…read morepiercing, "helix," and conch. Costing me around $100 (without tip). Cheryl pierced my belly button without informing me know that I didn't have the ring anatomy to support a belly button piercing. I thought I was healing fine until the around May/June. I started noticing more crust build up even with regularly cleaning. I also didn't wear clothing that fit the belly area super tight. I had gone to a different and apparently more well informed piercing shop (not Emerald) and they broke the news to me. I went in under the impression that my piercing needed to be downsized because the swelling had gone down but instead I was told that my body was rejecting the jewelry because I didn't have the right anatomy for it. Then my jewelry was inspected by the shop and there were signs that the jewelry was poor quality, inadequate for body jewelry. Now I have scarring on my belly, money loss, and eight months wasted. When I was getting pierced Cheryl was training a new piercer. She should not be training and should get her license reevaluated. The reason helix is in quotations is because my helix piercing was also pierced at a bad location, it was closer to a flat piercing than a helix. Both my helix and conch piercing were removed because it was infected due to jewelry quality. Spark Notes: Please please please go to a better shop to get your piercings, jewelry is about one of the most important part of a PIERCING and even that was cheap, poor, and inadequate. Do NOT come here because its cheaper, that lead to potentially permanent scarring on my belly. - CHEAP JEWELRY - POORLY TRAINED STAFF (DIDN'T INFORM ME THAT MY I DIDN'T HAVE THE RIGHT ANATOMY FOR A PIERCING AND JUST PIERCED IT ANYWAYS, MY PIERCING WAS FLOATING) Avoid this place at all costs or end up like me and have scars everywhere. Getting my money back wouldn't even begin to make me feel better about this. This is such a big hit for me because I frequently wear clothing that shows my belly (hence why I got the piercing). Now I have a big ugly scar. THANKS.

I came in today to swap some piercings out to adhere with my new job's appearance. Rob was warm and…read morefriendly, and knew exactly what I needed. I asked for surgical steel (what I wear in my ears), and he suggested that titanium is a better choice and slightly safer than surgical steel (not that the latter is bad, just that titanium is a smidge better). I trusted him, since he has been doing this for longer than I've been alive! We went back, I laid in the chair for him to help me take out my (seamless) hoops from my nose, and insert the new jewelry. It was a very comfortable and quick experience! Thank you for helping me!

I just finished getting this tattoo from Sonny at Lost Dreams. The staff is very welcoming when…read moretheir customers walk in and the shop is extremely clean. Pricing is set at the beginning, so the customer knows what to expect. Tattoos are cash only. Sonny is a true artist. Bottom line, the man is talented. I came to him with ideas in my head and he put them on paper, then on my skin. The tattoo took about 3.5 hours to complete - throughout the process, there was a nice mix of silence and conversation. I don't talk much and the silence allowed Sonny to concentrate, but the conversation also helped the time to go by. All in all, I cannot be happier with the entire experience and Sonny's artistry. I highly recommend Lost Dreams and Sonny as your tattoo artist.

I've gotten 3 tattoos here. 1 was a few years ago (can't remember which artist) and my 2 most…read morerecent have been in the last 2 months by Bobby. All experiences have been awesome. Bobby does an amazing job and really takes the time to make sure you are happy! Bobby and all staff are so friendly and welcoming! I usually am a bleeder and peel a lot after a tattoo. But both tattoos by Bobby healed BEAUTIFULLY and didn't peel at all which was amazing! I will definitely be back and definitely recommend Bobby. My ONLY complaint... is the shop is cash only... which isn't a huge deal... BUT their on site ATM only dispenses (I think) $300 at a time... and tattoos aren't often less than that price... so you have to do multiple transactions and pay multiple transaction fees to take cash out from their ATM. So, plan ahead and get cash out elsewhere if you can.

Imo, the…read moreexperience I had this time was so much better than the last, bc the receptionist was much more nicer than one I've experienced multiple times in the past. I think they had blue & pink hair. Also, the piercer was super sweet! I remember her being a trainee when i came here in October '25. She was rly informative and answered all my questions! The reason i'm giving it 4 stars is bc all 4 of my jewelry have fallen out at separate times -- 3 helixes and my eyebrow that I just got pierced (it's been around 3 weeks). I don't sleep on them (i'm very strict abt not sleeping on them), and i don't touch them. Other than that, i definitely enjoyed all my experiences coming here
