The apprentice is supervised by a senior piercer, in my case the shop owner, and it was a great experience. We went slow and had an easy paced consultation making sure the placement was just right and would also meet the kind of jewelry I wanted. They were happy to change and mark placement multiple times until I was satisfied and the owner was happy. All in, I paid $90 for both piercings including jewelry plus a tip.

For some reason Google Reviews isn't displaying my review from the summer so I'm cross-posting it…read morehere: I just moved to MN and wanted a new piercing for my birthday. Fraidy Cats came HIGHLY recommended by a friend who has been going to the owner Jamie for a decade now. I have 15+ piercings so this is not new territory for me. The same friend called the studio in the morning to check in with Jamie. Two of us wanted two new piercings, not one, and she said one appointment slot per person would be ok. We also let her know we had our own jewelry and she said it would have to be processed. She instructed us to book three back to back appointments with the same piercer online so we did just that and reserved an hour and a half time between the three of us (4pm-5:30pm). We arrived on time (3:58pm to be exact) and Jamie told us that she "messed up" the schedule and needed to help someone else first, but the staff came over to take care of us so it was fine. Our group of three proceeded to complete paperwork and a very lengthy after-care presentation. We were just following the staff's instructions so we figured we were still on schedule. Jamie joined us and called us by they/them pronouns by default which seemed thoughtful. She asked where we bought our jewelry from since it needs to be high quality. She went back and forth between the lobby where we were and her office on the other side of the wall to google the names of the studios where we said we bought the jewelry. Not sure if that's the best way to verify jewelry quality but ok. This was when things went south. Jamie said there was now only enough time for one of us to get pierced with jewelry that we brought and that there was no longer time for two of us to get two piercings each and that we would have to come back a different day. So we let my other friend who was visiting from out of state have that slot. I asked Jamie to process my jewelry alongside my friend's jewelry because I had a feeling there would be enough time for me. She reluctantly agreed and guess what? There was enough time -- my piercing was completed at 5:22pm. The piercer who did my tragus was kind, professional and personable. Unfortunately things didn't go as planned. Immediately after putting in the jewelry, she told me that it was slightly off and asked me to check the mirror. I calmly said that I didn't like it and asked that we remove it. She said ok but had to notify Jamie first. Jamie stormed in and was completely on the defense, saying things like, "This is a great piercing" and "It looks great to ME." I stayed quiet nearly the entire time. I struggle with social anxiety and standing up for myself, so the last thing I wanted to do was defend myself and start crying. All I was able to say was, "This isn't the placement I agreed to and I want it removed." Jamie removed the jewelry from my ear and explained to the piercer how it was at the wrong angle, while still not validating my decision to have it removed or apologizing for her piercer's lack of proper training. She also didn't do anything to stop the blood from pooling inside my ear and then raised her voice at me when I tried sitting up to prevent blood from going down my ear canal. The piercer tried helping me and Jamie started barking at her asking if there was blood on her floors (there wasn't). Thankfully Jamie left the room shortly after. When we left, Jamie didn't come out to ask how I was doing or say goodbye to my friend who, again, has been going to her for years and consistently refers people to her studio. I went back shortly after we left to ask for my deposit to be refunded since no one had mentioned it at any point. A staff member went to Jamie's office to ask and said that Jamie would take care of it within a few days. At this point it was clear that Jamie had no intention of seeing us out or following up on my experience. Again, this review has absolutely nothing to do with my botched piercing. These things happen. The problem is the way I was treated by Jamie. She had more respect for my pronouns than my well-being. Also I received my refund AFTER this review was posted on Google.

But the main reason I chose Jeff's is because when I called he was friendly and helpful in answering all my questions. I was very anxious, but excited to get my nose pierced and immediately when I walked in he greeted me and made me feel at ease. He is very knowledgeable about what he does and stands behind his work. I love my new piercing and am thinking about going back to get another piercing. He has reasonable prices too, I intended on getting my nose pierced only and ended up getting my cartilage pierced at the same time. If you get multiple piercings you save an extra $10 on each piercing after the first and he has a coupon on his website to print out to save $5. All together I saved $15 and to me every little bit helps. I highly recommend Jeff's Tattoo, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you Jeff:)

On their website and socials they mentioned they work to take any walk-ins, which I really appreciated. The day I decided on was quite a snowy day so I wasn't sure if they were still open. With a quick call, I was able to determine they were still open and had time to fit me in before close that day. Matt was the piercer and was friendly and professional. He answered any questions I had and made the experience easy in a comfortable atmosphere. I had my eye on a specific piece of jewelry for the piercing, which wasn't available, but I was shown several other titanium options to pick from and easily found one I liked. The piercing process was smooth and didn't hurt near as much as I thought it was going to. After the piercing, I was even shown a bit of the process to change the color of titanium piercings, which was neat to see. If you want different color jewelry, I'd definitely recommend asking about it. Very comfortable, clean, and friendly environment to get a piercing!

MPLS who has done my work is booked out....for months. So I started looking around for people who do work in the style/manner. Recommendations from friends yielded some results but they were also booked out, or their portfolio didn't look like it was a good fit. Doing a Google search, lo and behold there is a location in Maple Grove, that I have overlooked. Doing a quick review, of the artists work, and consumer comments, I felt pretty comfortable committing to this establishment. The response to my request for the doing the work was quick, and I appreciate the communication. Got the date/time set, and the artist who will do the work. I was paired with Chris Spiegel to slap the ink on my arm Walking into the establishment, you will notice that the front area is very clean, the attendant at the front desk was friendly, and the whole vibe was really inviting and comfortable. Getting the tattoo: First and foremost - Chris did an excellent job! He asked all the right questions. Offered important questions and suggestions that would help the design look its best. During the time in the chair, Chris has a great demeanor, and is able to relate and carry on a chat (who wants to sit in and listen to the piped in music). The other part of this process that impressed me, was how adamant he was about after care - taking care of your tattoo, what to do, what not to do. It has been a couple years since my last work, and I appreciated the refresher. The other item I would mention, all of their staff are very talented, and super friendly. When getting a tattoo, you are entrusting your vision of something can be of significance to you, and you want the end product to be everything you expect it to be. Chris has certainly earned my trust, as well as Ink Sanctum. I will be back for my next project. If it's your first tattoo, or if you are adding on to your tapestry. Please give them a serious look. There is no intimidation walking in, the staff will make you feel welcome, answer your concerns, and provide a grade - A consultation to ensure your tattoo looks as awesome as you expect it to be.
