Each staff member that I encountered seemed pleasant and welcoming I had the same artist both times (Y.C.). He was very polite and took the time to explain the cons of getting tatts on certain areas as well as helping me to figure what colors would work with the designs I wanted. One of my pieces required two sessions, lasting about 2 hrs each time. He was very considerate: ensured I was comfortable, checked to see how I was doing and offered breaks during the process. The shop is located within a plaza of other businesses so parking is ample. It is cash-only with an on-site ATM as well as one in the parking lot. My only gripe is the cash-only policy,but guess it's not a big deal if you know prior to arrival (in case you don't want to use the lobby ATM). My tattoos turned out great! I definitely would recommend this shop/visit again).

I'm absolutely in love with Ghost Studios and if it weren't for Joey moving to this location, I…read morewould have never known how many amazing artists there are in Charlotte (besides my tattoo artist, of course). Ghost is easy to find and is accessible by stairs or elevator. The parking is limited but if you have an early appointment, you'll find parking just fine. The studio is exceptionally clean and the artists thoroughly sanitize throughout and in between sessions, I never once questioned their sanitation. Check-in is a breeze and very welcoming. Every artist that came by was very friendly and chill. I really loved how humble everyone was even with the insane talent they all had. So many tattoo shops can be prideful without the skill to show for it so this was a breath of fresh air. I am personally working with Joey on a sleeve and couldn't be happier with my choice on the artist. He is professional and extremely detailed. It also helps that we vibe making the tattoo sessions easy and fun. I did two back to back sessions that totaled 19 hours and I never felt like tapping out. I have about 8 sessions total and 2 of them are nearly healed. I am absolutely in love with what I have so far and can't wait for the next 4 sessions in August! (Will update photos when complete).

Hector was awesome to work with! He listened, got my vision, and was efficient in making it happen.read more

I stopped in because when looking at their IG I had a hard time deciding who I would go with. When going in I showed one of the artists what I wanted and she placed me with Jordan.... 10 fucking stars!!! Jordan absolutely KILLED it. She worked for a good 7ishh hours and I actually took a couple naps through it. No pain at all! The shop itself it top notch, very clean, nice bathroom facilities & sick art work around the walls. The artists that were there the time I was, were also very nice & inclusive. Good vibes! Highly recommend anyone curious to def check this shop & these artist out. Quality business

I had been wanting to get my nose pierced for awhile and thought this was the perfect opportunity to do so! From the moment we walked through the door, Kat was extremely personable. She explained the process thoroughly from start to finish. She was patient and answered all of our questions. She made sure to double-check everything to make sure that we received exactly what we wanted. She also weighed in with her professional opinion about where to place the piercing and what size jewelry to get. Although I was super nervous, Kat made me feel very comfortable with the whole process. The piercing itself was super quick with limited pain. I was very pleased with the results. I would definitely consider Kat for any other piercing or tattoo needs!

My first tattoo with Nikki was in 2005. I already had work done by other artists, which was okay,…read morebut I wanted something bold, striking, and original. I'm in the fashion industry so I'm particular about my body art. After consulting with Nikki, she knew exactly what I was looking for and after a few drawings we started. In the past 7 years, I've had 80+ hours of work done by Nikki, including both sleeves and a full back piece. She's done cover-up work and corrected tattoos from earlier artists. I've also had permanent eye-liner done by her, which looks natural. Each and every experience as been first class. The studio is clean and professional. I've always got the appointment times and days that I want and nothing is too difficult or too much trouble. Tattoos are permanent and I haven't regretted any of mine. I've recommended Nikki and Stacey to a number of my friends and clients, all of them have been more than satisfied. If you're looking for the best, you should give Nikki and Stacey serious consideration.

She is an hour from where I live, but quality over convenience was important to me. Now she has done each of my four tats and I am very pleased with her work and work ethic.

She was very efficient and it was over in no time with very little pain/discomfort - I appreciated her bedside manner. The jewelry selection was great - lots of basics and also more intricate pieces. I recommend Dianna/The Renegade Pearl for all your piercing needs! I got my second tattoo from Troy at Green Light a couple of months ago. It was a neo-traditional piece with color on my forearm, and Troy did an AWESOME job of making the vague idea in my head into a work of art! My session went by quickly and I never felt awkward or out of place. I am so pleased with my healed result and get complimented on it pretty much any time that I go out with it exposed. I ended up paying a lower price than I had been expecting (probably due to my own inexperience, but it was a pleasant surprise), and will definitely be returning before too long.
