Space: As an Oak Park Studio "walk-in" looking to get my 7th tattoo, I was pleasantly surprised by…read morehow easy scheduling, paperwork, and service were. The studio gives "calm/peaceful" vibes, which helps me not be overstimulated or anxious. The shop is clean, tranquil, and shares global inclusive art creativity. Tattoo Artist: Jonathan was amazing! He greeted me with a genuine welcome and readiness to help. He explained my options, created my design, and was kind, professional, SKILLED, and hilarious. His positive, down-to-earth energy was contagious. I felt spoiled with VIP treatment the entire time. I LOVE my newest tattoo and will be back for another. Thank you, JP and Ageless Arts Tattoo & Body Piercing.

After getting three piercings here, I can say that my interactions have been nothing but top notch…read more I fully plan on going back for more piercings!! Thanks to all of them for being professional and helpful! As a response to the comment by F.U. from 2 weeks ago: I was wondering if you would review via Yelp. I was in the studio the day you and your child were in and was mortified by how rude you were to the piercer and staff. So much so, in fact, that I apologized for you. You're welcome. You were determined to have the piercer tell you what you wanted to hear, rather than what their training and certifications has taught them. Shame on you for treating people the way you did, in front of your child. What an example to set.

I'm splitting this review into two experiences because they were honestly very different…read more 2021 | Nostril Piercing (5 stars) I had my nostril pierced by Jeff in 2021, and it was genuinely a great experience. I first came in for a consultation and then returned about a month later for the actual piercing. Jeff walked me through the process, explained everything, and made me feel comfortable. We chatted the entire time, which says a lot because I'm not naturally a super chatty person. The piercing healed beautifully, and I kept the original jewelry in for almost five years. May 2026 | Jewelry Change / Replacement (2 stars) Fast forward to May 2026, I bumped my nose at work and my jewelry fell out. I had already been wanting to switch out my jewelry, so I figured this was the universe giving me a reason. I booked a same-day appointment online, which was super convenient. This visit, however, felt like a completely different experience. The front desk staff member greeted me, but the interaction felt disengaged and not particularly welcoming from the start. I was explaining what happened and mentioning that I'd had my original jewelry in since 2021. While she kindly offered to place my old jewelry in a baggie, which I appreciated, the overall interaction felt very transactional rather than consultative. I specifically asked for recommendations for everyday, long-term wear jewelry because I don't plan on changing it often. I also asked about rose gold for everyday wear, hoping for a little guidance from someone who works with jewelry every day. The response I got was basically, "Why not?" It came across dismissive rather than helpful. The jewelry explanation itself felt confusing, and the interaction overall felt very blah. I'm warm and jokey by nature, so maybe I notice energy more than most, but boutique experiences, especially piercing studios, should feel a little more welcoming and consultative. I wasn't expecting over-the-top bubbly, but I was expecting someone who seemed interested in helping me choose jewelry I'd likely be wearing for years. I almost walked out, honestly. I stayed because Jeff ended up installing the new jewelry. But overall, the visit didn't feel great, and I left disappointed considering how positive my original experience had been. I still tipped, force of habit , but I walked away feeling like the service didn't match the experience I remembered from Luxe. Customer experience matters, especially in a boutique setting where people are trusting you with body jewelry and looking for guidance.

Amazing staff i get all my piercings done here with rosemary, i absolutely love this place! 10/10read more

These people are scammers they ask for $100 deposit and then ask me to pay for my tattoo up front…read morebefore I can have my appointment then when I told him I didn't feel comfortable given the whole amount to them before getting my tattoo. They told me all this after the fact they took my $100 deposit. Then when I told them I wanted my deposit back they told me it wasn't refundable. Why would you pay $100 deposit and pay for your tattoo up front before getting your tattoo. So now I'm out of $100 and I had to report this tattoo shop. Do not go here.

I had my work done by Eris and not only is he a very nice welcoming individual but his skills are truly out of this world. I brought him a tattoo design and he improved it on his computer, asked for my opinion, gave me his opinion and then placed it exactly like we agreed onto my skin. It is a true work of art. My tattoo turns head everywhere I go and I couldn't be happier.

I can't say enough about Venture Tattoo. Anthony did a custom half-sleeve for me. It was my first…read moretattoo, but won't be my last. Anthony is an artist, plain and simple. He's an unbelievable talent who is also soft spoken and humble about his work. I know all the artists there are excellent, but if you're looking for something big, he's awesome. He worked for 6 hours on my arm. Got it done in one session, and because he is so good, pain was minimal and after care was painless (which surprised me). I waited 43 years to feel confident enough to get a tattoo. Anthony was the perfect artist for me and I can't wait to get back in there for the next one. I almost never write reviews like this but just want to make sure Anthony and Venture get their due respect from me after my experience there. Thanks. See you guys in October!

Stopped in tonight with my sister to get some piercings done. We've both been pierced here before…read moreand our former experience was also great. Tonight was our first time getting pierced by Mike. He was amazing. We got a total of 11 piercings tonight, all of them done quickly and efficiently, which sounds odd to say about a piercing, but they were done before you even knew it was happening. Took a breath in and then it's over. It's a skill, for sure! But more than just the piercings, Mike did spend a good amount of time helping us visualize what placement combinations would look like. We each got a nose piercing, and we both added several more to our ears. Since we still have several others we want, we wanted to make sure that whatever placements we chose today, would not limit others we want in the future. And he gave us the pros and cons for every possibility we threw out. He really did offer a lot of options and configurations and he never rushed us. He was very easy to talk with for the lengthy time we were there. He also listened. He heard me comment that many of my existing piercings have posts that are too long but I don't know what size to order. So he wrote down for me the various sizes I want to look for in new jewelry. VERY helpful. He really did go beyond what he needed to, was friendly, and the piercings were just so fast. And my nose did not hurt AT ALL. I don't know how he pulled it off, but that might have been the easiest piercing I've had out of all of mine, and was the one I was most worried about. Super Amazing Will definitely be back. Great experience. Clean space, but also fun and inviting. Professional, talented artists. BUDGET FRIENDLY... you aren't going to find another reputable place like this that pierces for $20, including the jewelry. I love a place that truly values their clientele. You won't be disappointed here

I was hesitant on leaving a review because i usually just move on and find a better service but I…read morefelt the need to share my experience. As soon as I walked in the two front guys gave horrible attitude and impolite manners. I did a walk-in for a nose piercing as said on their website and it was definitely rushed and didn't even give proper tips or information about a nose piercing or anything. I had to figure out myself on how to clean it and 2 weeks later the nose stud slipped off completely because of the poor quality jewelry that they sell. It was a very uncomfortable experience from the beginning. It was my mistake on not listening to the reviews on here. It's better to invest elsewhere and spend more money with the actual chance of it healing. Don't waste your time and money. (P.S if the owner responds to all negative reviews with clown emojis and aggressiveness that says more about the establishment then my review -- and hundreds of other NEGATIVE reviews-- does .)
