    I came here unplanned and they met all of my expectations. I loved working with Dave and everyone there is kind & friendly. The tattoo came out so good and I can't be happier, just like I imagined it. Also, it might be worth mentioning that Dave was very patient and wanted to make sure that everything is perfect & that I am happy with it in a first place. Overall, this unplanned trip to a tattoo studio went very well and I am glad they were able to accommodate my late arrival and do such a good work. Will definitely recommend them to everyone ! 10/10 & once again, thanks Dave!

    I got tattooed by Joey here and it was such an incredible experience. To me, the vibe of the shop is just as important as the quality of the artist. Because who wants to get tattooed in an environment they feel uncomfortable in? I immediately felt welcomed when I stepped foot in here. Everyone was super friendly. On top of the fact that he's an incredible artist, Joey is such a cool dude and was patient with me throughout the whole process, even staying late to finish my piece. I couldn't be happier with it and I'll definitely be returning again--I've officially found my favorite shop in the city.

    This place is perfect and I highly recommend. Went there today and got a second piercing in both ears. I was pierced by Xavier who was extremely knowledgeable and answered all questions I had. The shop is clean and upscale unlike most tattoo shops. This will definitely be my go to spot.

    I've been here several times and always very happy. Today I had a portrait of my cat and Mary did amazing ! Love her attitude and energy. Please do not hesitate to come here.

    Super clean, modern and professional shop with a friendly staff. Jef worked with me for a year on my cover up concept while I did laser removal to lighten. Super happy with the work and Jef is awesome! Highly recommend this shop. Ps - they play rock/metal in the shop which is rad

    Found them on a recent trip to New York and had an amazing experience! Set up an appointment for a conch piercing and was in and out within the hour. Liz was my piercer, and she was AMAZING! I went there with a piece of jewelry in mind, but unfortunately it was out of my price range, yet she helped me find one that was in my price range and so beautiful and perfect for my ear. She took a look at my other piercing that I got recently and gave me tips on how to clean them without any extra irritation and the piecing itself was virtually painless. If I'm ever back in New York I'm definitely coming back. Thank you for an awesome piercing experience.

    Red Baron Ink West were amazing for my latest tattoo. Kong did an awesome job of the Vitruvian Man and the guys at the desk were very helpful in making me welcome and part of the family. The place is fairly new, so has a real clean feel about it, which was cool. Good taste in music too! Highly recommend and will definitely go back for my next tat.

    5 Star experience with Shannon! Went in nervous to do my rook and conch piercings. Great price and great reviews so I decided to go for it. Shannon set up both piercings but told me there was no pressure and I could decide just to do one if I wanted. The rook went so smoothly and she was so attentive and caring that I went for the conch. Very fast, she explained every step, and repeated care instructions twice for me. It felt like they simply wanted to make me happy! Phenomenal atmosphere, amazing people. Would 100% recommend for piercings.

    I've been going to Red Baron for years, they only work with the best artists in the industry. You can walk in and see anyone and they will exceed your expectations! But I recently discovered MARY, she is the most personable tattoo artist I've ever met. I left my first appt feeling like I made a new friend. I've since seen her once a month since sept, with no plans to slow down. I've decided she will be my artist until I have no more skin to cover!

    Just got my helix pierced by expert piercer Shannon. I had a great experience from start to finish, I barely felt a thing and I'm really pleased with the results. Also, they used a hallow needle to pierce which is the correct way to do it . Come see Shannon!

I made an appointment here to get my navel re-pierced and chose this place due to their high ratings and reviews on Google. I can say with confidence that the accolades are well deserved! I had the pleasure of working with George to do my piercing. Upon walking into my appointment I was greeted by another employee who checked my ID and walked me through the process while George was getting ready for me. He was so friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and welcoming! He warned ahead of time that navel is an anatomy- based piercing so there's a chance I won't be able to get it done after my consultation, in addition to aftercare and resources so that I'm well-armed with everything I need to know to take care of my new piercing. In the last I've had my navel done unprofessionally, and then again professionally about a few years ago so I was hesitant about the scarring. George did my consult and assured me that it was safe for me to get it done again. He walked me through the process and talked through exactly what he was doing for prepping and piercing so I didn't get anxiety in anticipation. My navel looks beautiful and it's healing so nicely!! I felt safe, assured that I was getting it done so professionally, and I love how all the info is displayed on the website. All piercers have IGs if you have follow up questions and they respond so fast! Highly recommend!!

She really calmed my nerves and helped me pick out and style a few pieces and also picked similar options with different price ranges. I really enjoyed my experience with Naomi because was so welcoming, professional, and really took the time to go over options. After picking the jewelry, Starr was ready for me. The room is very clean and private- and the bed you lay down on is large and comfy :). She mapped out a few locations for the forward helix and conch based on the placement and anatomy and she took pictures on her phone since I had a hard time seeing it in the mirror. If Naomi didn't calm me down already, Starr is really the most gentle and friendly piercer I've met. Incredibly patient. And I would like to believe that her swift skills in piercing made the experience pain-free. I also did my downsizing with Starr and it was a breeze. All in all, I wish I got all my piercings done at Nine Moon- this place is a gem. Their collection is exquisite and if I plan on getting more piercings, I will revisit this studio and recommend it to others. Thank you Starr and Naomi.

I came here for some help on an irritated piercing and was pretty nervous about not being able to do much about it after looking through the price ranges very briefly. You make a reservation and if you're tardy by some time they charge you their deposit fee $40+ dollars. Luckily, we came in early and were greeted very warmly by the staff here and after explaining the situation, were asked to wait. I loved the atmosphere of the shop: spotless, classy, sophisticated, and with a large selection of high-end jewelry for you to ooh, ahh, and oggle as you please. Shortly after, I then picked out some jewelry, and then was promptly taken to the back by a staff member. They tried finagling the hole for some time to save my 8 year old piercing, all while trying to ease my anxiety and talk me through the pain of the irritated piercing. After no avail, we decided to give up and let the piercing retire so the spot can heal again. With all that said and done, I was not charged because they understood the trauma of retiring and letting go of an irritated piercing. I was recommended to return 2 months after if I wanted to get it redone again. If I do decide to reinvigorate the spot I'll definitely be back. They are so bubbly and relatable here that I know I'll be well taken care of. Amazing place for new holes if you have a pretty penny and a hankering for change in your near future.

I made an appointment and paid the $100 reservation fee online. I was reminded several times of my appointment. There is a website and Ms. Smith has an Instagram account with many photos of her work.

Ms. Smith is thoroughly professional and competent. She spent time with me concerning my previous earlobe piercings, which had closed up over time. She went over the earrings choices with details about stones and white vs. yellow gold. I never felt rushed. I ended up purchasing two sets of lightning bolt earrings with tiny stones, one pair in each gold color. She was meticulous in positioning and marking my lobes. The actual piercing of both ears was quick and almost painless. I was given an instruction card detailing home care of the new piercings.

My original appointment was scheduled for 4 PM and was later changed by the store to 6:45 PM. Despite that, by around 7:20 PM we still had not been seen -- even though it appeared we were the last appointment of the night. The shop was overcrowded, chaotic, and extremely loud, yet the issue somehow became my child quietly playing with his toys while we waited. One of the nurses told my son to stop playing because he was "distracting" her, which felt completely unnecessary considering the noise level in the store overall sounded like a cafeteria. We were also the only Black family there at the time, and the interaction honestly left me feeling racially profiled and singled out. What made the situation worse was the lack of professionalism afterward. The young woman at the front refused to provide her name when asked, and when I asked the nurse for hers, she simply responded "Rowan" instead of identifying herself appropriately. If there are policies regarding children in the waiting area, they certainly were not clearly posted or communicated beforehand. I understand businesses get busy, but professionalism, transparency, and respectful treatment of customers should still be the standard. Unfortunately, this experience did not reflect that at all.

I would 1000% go back here if I needed jewelry in a pinch or wasn't looking for a specific piece in particular. It has both high-end quality pieces and many other somewhat affordable options as well. As they don't promote low quality jewelry, I don't expect to spend anything less than $30 a piece.
