He will tell you if you don't have the proper anatomy for a piercing which is a GOOD thing. A couple of weeks after I had my tragus pierced, it got snagged in my hair and pulled out. My daughter and I desperately tried to get it back in, but only made it so much worse and more swollen. I called Tom and he told me to come in. He got it back in and gave me some instructions to help the damaged me and my daughter did. He told me to call him in a week or two with an update. Between my daughter and I we have about 15 piercings that were done by Tom. They all healed beautifully. I send everyone I know to Tom and they have the same experiences we have. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Everything is clean and organized and he takes his time to make sure your piercing is exactly what you want and where you want it. I'm a bit shy so it can be a rough time socially to get piercings done, but he's always been very nice. I have a lot more piercings I want in the future and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I love Crayons Tattoo and all of the friendly workers! Even the studio lobby is awesome!…read more I went in 4 years ago and informed Devin what I had in mind for my tatt (my astrology symbol in turquoise behind black with high pointed stars around it). The next day when I went in & to my surprise he drew up (as a suggestion) purple as a background color instead of black. Devin said that just turquoise & black might be a little bland &/or dark, and he thought purple and turquoise would look perfect! It was even more beautiful than I imagined and I knew that was MY tattoo! Isn't that what you want in a tattoo artist? Someone that you explain what you want.. then when it's drawn up it looks even better than you pictured! It turned out beautiful when completed! I live 45 minutes away now but I'm 100% sure that while living in PA my tatts will be done here. I've also seen the great work they've done on my friends. Thanks again to Devin for my beautiful tattoo! UPDATE: I recently heard that Devin has went to work at another shop. However, I've heard nothing but great things about all of tattoo artist at Crayons.

Love, love, love this shop! I came here for my second tattoo about five years ago, and will never…read morego anywhere else. Mike does phenomenal work, and I definitely recommend him to everyone who asks about my tattoos. The shop is spotless, and all of the artists are talented. I have gotten four tattoos here now with a total of nine sessions, and couldn't be happier with the outcomes. The only downside I can possibly think of is that Mike is good enough that he is often booked for several months in advance, but it is always worth the wait. This shop is one of the most reasonably priced I have ever been to. Also, a nice quality about this shop is that you can pay with a credit/debit card, but if you pay in cash, you get a slight discount.

Their price was half of what I was quoted at another place. But what I loved most was the amount of knowledge the technician had. She said they have to study 2 years on all kinds of subjects including health and the medical aspect of piercing before they can get licensed. She was gentle and did a great job piercing my ears. The after care instructions were printed and very clear and I didn't have any trouble at all. I will definitely return if I have any other body piercing done.

I did my research and after consulting several artists Dooner here at Up in Arms was my final answer! Let me just say that being my first tattoo I was cautious in finding a good artist in a clean, comfortable location. I could go on and on but who likes to read a long review so let me just say, the staff and Dooner are professional and friendly and are there for YOU. The entire experience from scheduling to the preparation to the actual appointment including aftercare was seamless and simple. Yes you must get an appointment months in advance, but you can possibly get a walk in as well. I booked mine three months out but I also had a 5 hour piece of art. Dooner was exceptional and handled my anxiety like a champ. I felt comfortable the entire time other than the first tattoo jitters I'm sure most go through. The parlor was clean and comfortable with a great music selection playing. Conversation was easy and the entire experience, AWESOME! I highly recommend Dooner or his colleagues for your next art piece. You will be stoked as I've already had many people compliment me on mine. I am already considering a second piece, and I know where I'll be going

I wanted third piercings in my ears, but one ear needed the second hole redone as a previous piercer messed up the spacing.

My friend paid $35 for her cartilage piercing, which is by far the best price for miles around. Luckily, none of us passed out, peed, or did both in quick succession.
