Sooooooo storytime…read more.. I've been wanting my ears pierced since I was in middle school. So many of my peers had them and I wanted them as well. Beyond my attempt to "fit in", I always felt it looked cool. Well, having pretty strict, traditional parents, I wasn't allowed to have any piercings or tattoos. After moving out for college, I eventually got the courage to get a tattoo and now I have so many, I've lost count. But I never got the strength to get my ears pierced. I was told that I was too old now to have them. I was also slightly traumatized from my childhood of being yelled at every time I would ask to get my ears pierced. I still would never want judgement from my parents or want them to think different of me, but I finally found the strength. I went into 2023 saying that this was the year that I was finally going to do the things I've been wanting to do for the longest. Prior to my arrival, I planned to go to a location that uses a piercing gun, until I researched that needle piercings are much better for several reasons. It was then that I looked up tattoo shops near me and this location came up. Coincidentally, my wife's friend got pierced here before, so it felt like fate. My Piercing Experience: This shop is cool. I was then greeted by the staff and asked what services I wanted and given consent forms to sign as well as pricing options. For me, one ear lobe is $50. Both ear lobes is $75. I then picked out what earrings I wanted for the piercing ($10/earring). Once called back, my piercer Bryt, was super cool and super friendly. She explained the process and the healing process. She even gave me some breathing tips that would help calm my nerves during the piercing. I know it sounds crazy, but I truly hate needles. Once she cleaned my earlobes, she placed spots on my ear with marker to mark the location of the hole that would go in my ear. Once I confirmed and she took a second look, it was time to go. She did it so fast, I barely event felt them. It felt like a toddler thumping my ears. LOL. Once leaving, she offered the sterilizing solution, which they sell for $15 in store. Overall, I truly enjoyed my experience. If you're considering getting pierced or getting your child pierced, go see Bryt. She's the best!

Saw Maria today to get my nose studs changed out for rings (I've been saying I was going to do this…read morefor years), a helix piercing, & a rook piercing (I had both in the past but took them out well over a decade ago). She was super nice & easy to talk to & asked me how I was doing the whole time even though I'm a natural redhead & we have a bizarre tolerance for pain. I went with basic jewelry to start, but I'm gonna get something more flashy once they heal. It was about $200 with tip for the services & jewelry which is honestly less than I was expecting. The studio was bright & clean. There were 2 tattoo artists there who were also really nice. Will definitely be back to get fancier jewelry & more piercings from Maria.

Needed to find a new artist and started asking around. Dave's name kept popping up. Went in got a…read morelittle flash, and talked with Dave about a piece on my forearm. Paid a deposit, and a week or 2 later I'm sporting a great looking piece. I'm always getting stopped by people wanting to ask who did it, and where the shop is. When my kid wanted a tattoo for her 18th birthday I took her straight to Dave. There are a lot of shops to choose from in the Atlanta area, but I'll stick with Good Clean Fun. Clean, hygienic, follow all the rules and great art, it doesn't get better then this.

I…read morecan be having a bad day but the moment I walk through the door it's like the sun shines brighter! I wasn't even thinking about getting ONE tattoo. However, two years later, as I traverse through my midlife crisis, I'm in the midst of completing TWO sleeves. And, Eddy, he's the only one who I can trust and depend on to not only provide stellar service, but also exemplar advice/suggestions. I've gone to other shops prior to finding Eddy's shop, Diligent Labotomy. Some of them were/are coo coo for something other than coco puffs because their prices were reee dick a lus!! See for yourself, with the few pictures I'm sharing, just how good Eddy's work looks. Give him and/or the piercers a holla!

What do you do for your 7th wedding anniversary? You get a couples' tattoo! No, not names, that's…read moresilly. Representative caricatures! Eddy was fricking fantastic. I got WALL-E holding a stargazer, my husband got an adoring EVE. It was super simple to reach out to Eddy a few months ago, discuss a design concept and locations, pick a date, and pay a holding deposit. Then we show up on the day, he whips up a drawing, and in a few hours, his work his done, we pay, and we're a more adorable couple than we started. Conversation and chatter was lively and fun between us and him and the other staff nearby. Now that the sting is down, and we've garnered attention in public with our new tattoos, I know I'm already thinking ahead for location and design of my next tattoo. My husband wants to let this one heal completely before he decides, though he already knows what he would get if he goes ahead.

Just a general cost is what I wanted & he fell right in line with my price range!! The shop is connected to the SHELL gas station on the corner of Old Norcross Rd & Sugarloaf- pretty unassuming store front, no doubt. But don't judge a book... I went to meet my friend & walked in. The place is clean & pretty cool with eclectic decore. The furniture needs covers or replacement, but I hope worn because of so many clients coming & going. There was 1 other client when I was there. My friend came out & her tattoo is so beautiful. She comes frequently & the work is always great with color saturation, great lines & clean work! I believe I'll come get mine done (saving up) for my birthday in Sept. more review to come.

They were extremely diligent in their adherence to sterilization protocols and examination of my initial piercings. Because of Randy's careful examination of my ears, only one ear needed a full re-pierce and the other ear just needed a slight stretch in the piercing. It was much less painful this time around than it was 20 years ago (w/a piercing gun at Claire's!). I had such a great experience here I would definitely return and get additional piercings! My ears healed well (different experience than the first time) and I'm excited to wear earring again!

They took…read morea look and suggested I wait another month, and didn't charge me for the visit since it needed more time. I came back after a month and got them changed out with no fuss in about 5 minutes. They answered my questions happily and were thorough in their responses. Love the vibes. My jewelry swap (didn't need to downsize after all) hurt quite a lot but I'm unsure if that was because they still weren't ready. The piercer did feel a bit rough when handling them but when I voiced the pain they slowed down and were more gentle.
