Was patient with my indecisive teenager as she and her older sister debated jewelry choices. She was knowledgeable and gave advice about the jewelry and its warranty and my daughter was surprised at how quickly and easily it was done and minimal the pain was. Would definitely go see Liz again.

Being from Dayton, but living on the other side of the state now, she was incredibly flexible with my schedule. She has such a soft touch and asked often how I was feeling (they were my firsts!) She has such a calming and trusting presence and is so sweet in person. She made my ideas come to life so beautifully and I will forever be grateful. The parlor is located in Dayton, Ohio, near the Belmont area. Inside, the walls are lined with fun sketches from inside artists, as well as others. The parlor is very well lit and you can tell that each artists stations have individual touches - which I appreciate! They have several seating options inside in the "lobby" area and plenty of parking spots off to the left of the building.

It was perfect. I will definitely go back. I was at ease and it was painless. I highly recommend…read moreTrue love tatto parlor. it was cozy and clean. I had no worries.

I called…read moreto make sure they were good with piercing little ones, and they let me know to make an appointment. There were plenty of appointments available so we were able to go right in. When we walked in the shop was very clean and professional. Service was quick - I forgot to ask the woman's name - but she was very professional, did all she could to make sure my granddaughter was comfortable. Sadly my granddaughter freaked out a bit, but the woman was patient and amazing. She talked my granddaughter through the piercing, and I am extremely happy with how things went. My granddaughter decided not to get the second ear pierced, and the women did not get upset or bothered - or at least she didn't show it. Truly I recommend this place.

They more than exceeded our expectations, and made sure that I felt comfortable the entire time. We worked with Erin, and she is an absolute gem! I showed her what we were thinking, and she took my ideas and made them better and made them a reality! It honestly looks like a spa, and we felt welcomed by everyone there!!! It is in a darling house, built in the early 1800's (yes, I read the history of the house while I was there), and they have several different rooms! I will recommend it to all of my friends and family!!!!!!! Thank you!

I had my first tattoo done by an apprentice, he was nice but the tattoo was in a very noticeable…read morespot on my hand and it blew out really bad. It was my first tattoo. On top of that the whole tattoo costed well over $200 whilst being about the size of a dime and a preexisting design. I was charged for "designing" the tattoo when all they had to do was look up the symbol I wanted and print it out or use the photo I showed them. The process was relatively professional and everything seemed well sterilized so no complaints there. Other than the ridiculous pricing the overall experience wasn't bad. I just wouldn't recommend to anyone who doesn't want to over pay.

Alex's patience and him being his worst critic creates a concoction of epic talents. Alex should be carried to work on a golden throne and only be allowed to use a golden gun and needles when tattooing. His level of talent and art can only be compared to that of Leonardo da Vinci and Vincent Van Gogh. Alex is the Gem in Gem City Tattooing. If you are contemplating a tattoo go see Alex Cooper before he becomes a tattoo reality tv star on Spike TV because it is only a matter of time before his talents outgrow Dayton Ohio.

I completely understand that they required IDs but he simply could've said something along the lines of "I'm so sorry we unfortunately do require physical IDs" instead of being so fucking disrespectful and implying that I was some underage kid trying to pull one over on him. It was a very rude and uncomfortable experience. Other than that the environment did seem really nice and the other individuals also seemed kind.
