I went to get nipple piercings today and have nothing but good things to say about Dan the piercer…read more I really thought I would feel uncomfortable with a male piercer but that was not my experience. First off the piercer has amazing energy and you literally will feel so calm about getting your piercing. I felt very comfortable and the piercing itself was near painless. Dan explained everything in detail and provided an after care pamphlet. I had nothing but a good experience and will definitely come back here in the future!

The cleanliness of the entire place to the professionalism you couldn't ask for a better overall experience. Dan has always been thorough and upfront about pricing before any piercings are completed like they say you get what you pay for. Any type of jewelry I've purchased from Dan I've never had an issue and for that I'll pay the price for quality jewelry. The vibes of the place are always on point I've never left the shop disappointed. Most of my jewelry I've received is from Tawapa; their jewelry is always bold & beautiful!

Luke completely messed up my tattoo. I wanted a yin and yang on the back of my neck. What I got…read morewas oval, not symmetric and not centered. When I was able to get a clear look of how wrong it was I contacted Luke. He said he could fix it after it had healed. Once it was healed I contacted him again.

Since then, the appointment was rescheduled multiple times due to many different reasons (excuses) as to why they could not "tattoo her at this time". They went back down today (an hour drive!) only to receive a text just before they arrived to cancel on her yet again. When she asked for her money back, they were extremely rude to her and used foul language for no reason at all! They even refused to refund the full amount my brother paid claiming they "had a sale around that time" when he purchased the gift certificate. Of course they only wrote down the hours purchased and not the price paid. Throwing money in an already disappointed and frustrated girls hands while yelling at her "I hope he f***ing paid it" is completely unacceptable and outright disgusting! We do not recommend doing any business with Luke and these horrible money hungry so called "artists"!
