I've never been tattooed by rocky, but I have been pierced by him several times. He did my septum,…read moreand two cartilage piercings on me. I've referred several friends to him and we all have had nothing but good experiences. He makes it super quick and easy which is nice because other places I've been to seem to drag out the appointment and make me feel stressed and nervous but rocky is very calm and helps me feel relaxed and excited about my new piercings. In and out of the door within 5-10'mins!

After piercing, placed a CBR (learned afterward that it's best to place a post in cartilage until healed) and my ear cartilage swelled and was painful. The vibe is very dingy and not well thought out or executed. I have friends who went and had a good experience. Nothing personal, just not for me and I can't recommend based on lack of cleanliness during the piercing as well as cbr placed. Went elsewhere afterward and had a very different (positive) experience. This guy just needs a better interior designer and some up to date education. Nice guy tho!

I got two piercings done, one on each side of my nose, I was kinda scared because it was my first piercings but the man who did the stabbing looked like an old biker. There's only a few people I would blindly trust in this world, older men that happen to be bikers are one of those types of people I trust. I'm glad I trusted him because that was the quickest and most pain free piercing I've had. Hoping to come back here after I have my kid to add to my body art.

They have a beautiful variety of jewelry options, but I just went in for a plain ol' horseshoe septum. Took longer to drive there than the piercing process itself.

Someone close to me gave me a gift certificate for Eagle River Tattoo. I was surprised to learn…read morethey only do business over Instagram. So I DMed some artists who I thought could be fun to work with. One artist agreed to get me in and make a plan, that was a couple of months ago and I have yet to hear back. I came by the shop in person today and kindly requested a refund which was denied. I am really upset by how this was handled after hearing such good things about this place. Edit: After the review Debra reached out and granted me the refund, cleared up the miscommunication (they do not operate strictly over Instagram) and was rather apologetic. While I haven't had any work done here, I can say that I am willing to give eagle river tattoo the benefit of the doubt and may return for my next piece (with a different artist).

I have had by only tattoos done here by Don. The first one I was soooo scared of possible pain I…read morewas shaking! I think I was 59 years old. Don very gently walked me away from the ledge! He went slow and explained everything well so I felt pretty comfortable. His artwork is amazing. Surprise ... It didn't even hurt! I got my second one there as well and they are both beautiful. I get a lot of compliments on them, especially on the coloring. I doubt I'd ever go anywhere else. I've got 2 more already planned in my head!
