    Nose piercing
    Peterice A.

    My husband and I went this past weekend and got piercings. I got my septum and he got his nose pierced. Ceejay was amazing! She did such a great job! Super informative and sweet! We enjoyed our experience. The piercings were nearly painless, and they look great! We walked in and we in and out within an hour. If you want a piercing go herreeee!!

    CJ the excellent and helpful piercer.

    I needed help with the jewelry in my already existing forward helix piercing. I thought it would be easy to change out the jewelry myself and was wrong. I went into Rockstar with a lot of questions. Hoping they could help me out. The receptionist was really helpful and patient. She tried her best to see what we could do about getting short posts with large shiny gems. Mid process piercer CJ Jerome came out and joined in. All my questions about sizing and jewelry options both in their stock and elsewhere were answered thoroughly and patiently. In the end, I came away with the knowledge I need to select jewelry going forward. CJ also helped me put in my jewelry. She was quick and it was painless. I loved that I got great service, was able to get help putting my own jewelry in, and that the pricing was great. I also appreciated their paperwork because it was thorough and asked questions I haven't seen asked in other shops. I highly recommend them.

    Supposed to be a space theme with a tree of life.

    Yours truly Adam Jameson took advantage of not only me but my best friend as well. We got this monstrosity on our arms on February 24th of 2021. Buckle in ladies and gents, I got a story for you guys! My best friend and I decided to get matching tattoos to symbolize our friendship. We wanted a wolf, tree of life, and our zodiac signs incorporated within the tattoo. We spent months trying to find a good artist who will actually do a good job but won't be outrageously expensive. So we ended up finding someone (NOT Mr. Jameson. Someone else at a different tattoo shop) who would do the tattoo for 500$ with a 100$ deposit. Well the night before the tattoo appointment he decided to tell us that he switched shops and asked if we could do the tattoo on 2-25-21 @ 2:00pm. This couldn't be possible because my best friend moved to South Carolina and she flew up here to get the tattoo on the 23rd and her plane leaves on the 25th at 10:00 am. He then told us that he is now charging 200$ an hour and that it would take 3-4 hours each... that's definitely not the price we agreed on previously.. I don't care how much the tattoo is but let me know how much it is so I can save up the money. He also sent me the designs for the tattoo (the night before our appointment) it was NOTHING like what we said we wanted... We gave him a few chances to fix it but it's like he wasn't listening to what we wanted, he just wanted to do his own thing or he just didn't want to do the tattoo for us. the tree of life had some kind of DNA strand on the bottom and to be honest, the only thing we really liked about his design was the wolf.. everything else... Was mediocre at best... definitely not worth 800$ (if it took 4 hours to complete). So we tried to find another shop to do the work.. we woke up at 7:30am and started googling tattoo shops... we called/drove around when places opened and finally found Adam Jameson at Rockstar Ink who would see us. We canceled the appointment with the previous artist and we for sure we're getting tattoos by Adam who was only charging us 200$ each for the whole tattoo (minus the wolf). So ever since Adam did the tattoo back in February I wanted to cry my eyes out every time I looked at my arm because on paper (before we got the tattoo) it was perfect. Exactly what we wanted! He stenciled it out on my arm, PERFECT! Started doing the tattoo, lines are all crooked... tree is just a blob... and this is on BOTH of our arms now. This was supposed to be my first tattoo... it was supposed to be meaningful to the both of us.... I am a medical professional... And this piece on my arm... it looked so bad.... Adam took advantage of me and my friends situation and for what? 200$...? I say situation because my friend already bought her plane ticket for 300$ and we planned on getting the tattoo on the 24th but because the previous artist wasn't listening to what we wanted, we went to Adam to see if he could do it. If we couldn't find someone to do the tattoo on the 24th we were just not gonna get it done and we would have planned a tattoo for a different time with someone who knows what they're doing. Adam clearly didn't know what he was doing. I got the tattoo fixed by a different artist, AT A DIFFERENT SHOP, and now I'm not crying myself to sleep and gained some confidence back.. I didn't even feel comfortable wearing a short sleeve shirt for months until a REAL tattoo artist fixed what Adam fucked up on. My friend, unfortunately is back in South Carolina, and plans on having the same tattoo artist who fixed Adam's fuck up, to do hers as well. But who knows when she will be back in Michigan? It's sad that this horrible tattoo is now only on her arm. This was supposed to be something meaningful to the both of us and Adam fucked the both of us over BIG time! Moral of the story. If you actually want a good artist. Do better research AND LOOK AT THE PORTFOLIOS! (They didn't even have them displayed at the shop... I know.. should have been our first clue to get the fuck out of there...) Don't be like my friend and I and let this pathetic excuse of an artist touch you with a needle.

    No uniformed lines, needle too thick so the heat lines smush together, absolutely no care put into this whatsoever.

    This place was so incredibly unprofessional. First things first, a handful of years back, I'd gone in. I had the top and bottom of my belly button pierced already. I wanted the sides pierced as well (so all 4 sides were pierced). They said no problem, and got to it. When they pierced it, it wasn't straight across but completely crooked! It looked so disgusting. When I told them, they said I could come back and get it redone. I went back to get it redone, and they did it again, over the old piercing OUCH and again it was crooked! So the third time I went in, they promised to get it right..... and it was crooked again. They literally could not pierce in a straight line. I ended up just taking it out. More recently I got a little tattoo on my hand. It's a little coffee cup. It's supposed to be adorable. But NONE of the lines are uniform! The left side is super thick and the right side is thinner, and you can see where there was a slip up, and the little heat lines above the cup literally smush together and don't even look like lines, because they were so thick. I'm pretty angry about that so I never went back. I now go to Wonderland Tattoo in St. Clair Shores, and they have seriously just been amazing. :)

    Had my rook pierced here a few months ago and have gone through months of pain and blood blisters. Went to a new piercer for my industrial to not only find out that my rook wasn't pierced on the correct angle, but that they took a straight barbell and bent it themselves to make it curved. Pain of the piercing itself, months of pain only to have to remove it, and now have to wait a year to pierce it again the correct way! Please, be smarter than I was and make sure you're using a well trained/experienced piercer! Forgot to add how I requested a snug piercing and he gave me a shitty "faux" one! Four months later, still swollen, not healed at all, and sad I didn't realize how much pain and pressure it gave me until I felt the relief after it was removed.

    My oh so adorable medusa piercing

    Came here to get my medusa pierced. Called before coming to see what time they Closed and the woman on the phone was very friendly. Came in and sat there chatting for a couple minutes with her and another guy at the front desk. Both were cool and Easy to talk to. Smiley did my piercing and made me feel very comfortable. Afterwards, the woman's husband and kids came in and they were adorable! I felt at home there! I'll definitely recommend Rockstar and will come back for anything else I may get done. I couldn't resist! Came back to see Mark for a cover up tattoo. He did and amazing job!

    Went in with an idea and Phil recreated it perfectly! He did such an awesome job! Listened to everything I had to say to make the tattoo exactly what I needed it to be - and more! I will definitely be back to see him soon! - thank you!!!

    Not recommended for tattoo. Simple tattoo has jagged outlines and inked too deep. Cost twice as much to cover up.

    My sister treated me to a an early Christmas gift to get my helix pierced and this popped right up…read morewith great reviews. The piercing was booked with Ben on a Friday after the holiday at 3:30 when the place was jam packed with walk-ins. Somehow Ben and Al, who greeted us and helped us prior to our appt, were able to manage all of us and communicate along the way. They were awesome and their teamwork and service was top tier. They also both hyped me up about my stud and totally unprompted. My only regret is not booking another appt simultaneously when it was open LOL! Ben is by far the best piercer I've ever had. He also saved my sister fees by piercing her ear with a dull needle so she only had to pay for the jewelry. Overall I would recommend them to anyone! Worth the price and the wait. Looking forward to another appt when I'm in town again! Also very sterile vibes and Ben took time between appts to sterilize and change gloves even though I was with my sister.

    Took my daughter in for a Helix and doubles. paperwork is not, it's all on an ipad which was nice…read more Staff extremely friendly and helpful (she was nervous). Do the forms, pick your jewelry, pay, get pierced. Mike Moore was absolutely amazing with everything... he put my daughter at ease, talked her through every single step (I was allowed in the room with her during the piercing) and in general made this an exciting, memorable event. HIGHLY recommend and am thankful - Mike's empathy and compassion was clear and appreciated. Aftercare instructions were very clear and repeated several times, till he was sure she understood. I can't give 6 stars so 5 will have to do!
