The other artists spoke to one another with no animosity and each one of them had amazing work on display. This is my tattoo three days after the saniderm has been on and after moisturizing.

But , I am so glad we did. Ed did both mine and hers. He was great at drawing up the picture. It took us like 3 times to get it exactly what we wanted. But , he never acted annoyed or aggravated about redoing the picture. He was so good about making sure he was doing exactly what we wanted. All in all . A very good experience. Really enjoyed it.

I won't get tattooed anywhere else in the Genesee county area…read more I went to another (well known) tattoo shop in the area and I ended up absolutely hating my entire experience there, so much that it discouraged me a little bit making me wonder if I ever wanted to step foot into another shop again. I went into Custom Ink & Steel to get my nose pierced and was completely surprised by the atmosphere in this shop, the staff was so welcoming and willing to help. I have now received 2 tattoos from Evan Oslund he does AMAZING work, he is also very friendly and talks to you the whole time, which is a big plus in my opinion. I cant imagine going anywhere else to get tattooed. Thank you guys at Custom Ink & Steel! Prices are very fair also!

Clean, professional, attention to detail - best piercing studio out there!!!…read moreMy daughter has had several piercings done here, the first ones when she was under 18, so I had to accompany her. I was very impressed with Tiffany's dedication to the safety of her clients; she answered all my questions and put both me and my daughter at ease. They have an amazing selection of custom jewelry to choose from. My daughter got three piercings that day, and a year later Tiffany helped her with a botched piercing from a shady shop near my daughter's college. After all that, I finally had the courage to get my ears re-pierced (I had a nightmarish experience decades ago that caused my ears to get infected over and over). Matt inspected my old piercings and said I wouldn't need new ones; the old holes could be stretched. They use medical grade posts, cut to fit each client's ears. Matt actually recut all my posts after the initial piercing, as he was concerned that they seemed too tight. I also took his advice about size and color of the opals I selected. Later on, I can choose other stones to put on my posts. The process was pretty much pain free, and I have had no redness, swelling, or drainage, which I experienced all the time when my ears were pierced all those years ago. I will continue to recommend DV8 to EVERYONE I know.

I gave her a general idea and color scheme, and she exceeded my expectations of what it could have been! A truly custom piece of art! She was so patient with me needing a few breaks, and was thrilled to see I brought my own snacks to keep me going! (Always bring yourself at least 2 snacks and a beverage! You'll thank me later.) Could not have been more pleased with the business as a whole! Very clean and orderly, beautiful waiting area showcasing at the front their array of jewelry selections. And the decor was the perfect modern/vintage collab! Will be returning, and highly recommend anyone new to try them out! (My picture does not do her justice, please check out their website to see their portfolios!!! )
