Where do I start?! How do you begin to explain the absolute PERFECT experience? I just recently…read moremoved back to the area after five years of being away, so I had no idea where to go for my body modifications after going to the same place since day one of being legally able to. I take my body modifications and my artist choice VERY SERIOUSLY. I got nipple piercings not even ten minutes ago, and I just had to leave a review. Mic was very patient and empathetic toward my nervousness. Mic helped me maintain my breathing, answered all my questions, explained the procedure to me thoroughly, and was very friendly all while being 100% sterile (clean) in his work and maintaining eye contact at all times (besides when he obviously needed to do otherwise to make sure the piercings were straight). Mic was very professional, informative, and all around a great individual to be around! After months of searching, I can finally say with confidence and absolute happiness that I have now found my new loyalty shop! Thanks for everything to everyone at Native Roots!!! If you're considering going here, stop considering and go! You won't regret it!

Very disappointed in this shop after reading all of the great reviews it has. The tattoos I…read morereceived were sloppy and careless -- Bean seemed less than interested in her job. I posted photos of my "before" - the birds Bean tattooed - and the "after" - my cover up. There was no way I was going back to have this shop fix what they had messed up. Glad I found a new artist. I can finally wear tank tops again!

My artist, Cory Bob, had a guy who walked in showed him a photo of a truck and WHAM 4 hours later it was on his arm, on IG, and it was stunning. As for me, i go where i am the canvas and let my artists take the wheel. I saw their work at the philly convention 4 maybe 5 years ago and i was hooked. this being one of my 'bucket list' shops, I was very pleased with the concept we came up with. tattoo #35 was only a few hours and his color work was awesome. ( i haven't posted a picture cuz i don't want anybody getting any of my ideas lol) They take walk ins from how it looked. There was a young lady in the back doing hair too, so they do a bit of everything. I'm certain i'll go back but i surely will not be driving 9 hours to do it. Cory thanks again for all the fun!

She's very clean and organized, also helps with symmetry and when it comes to facial piercings. I got a medusa and a vertical labret done and she was beyond helpful, she took her time with placement to make sure they were as symmetrical as they could be and to fit my face. She caters to her clients and overall is just a great piercer. I've had many piercings, some being horrible but she is the first that ever made me laugh as i was getting them done. She took the time to know us. I 100% recommend her!

I have gotten 2 tattoos here of good quality. I really love my tattoos. My first visit was great,…read morethe artists were nice and the atmosphere was laid back. My second visit was entirely different. The artists were much more comfortable with me this time I guess? They used every slur in the book to joke around with each other. Using the n-word with a hard r, the f slur, r slur, all the offensive language you can think of. Their jokes and comments were completely inappropriate for any setting. It was really disappointing! I do not recommend giving your money to these people.

I had a most excellent experience working with Summer and Lucky Lady Tattoo. Without hesitation I…read morewould recommend them for any Tattoo. This is my second tattoo with Summer and just like the first time, it was a great experience. I did a consultation session with her and explained what I wanted. The day of the tattoo, her picture was much better than I had in my mind. Once she got started and we got to talking, 2 1/2 hours felt like 20 or 30 minutes. She told me she was done and I could not believe it. The finished product was above and beyond what I had hoped for. If you are looking for a place for a tattoo look no further, this is the place to go.
