Lisa was so incredibly welcoming, sweet, and knowledgeable. I've never had anything other than my lobes pierced before, so I didn't know what to expect. She made me feel so comfortable during the entire process and I'm so happy with how my new piercings turned out! Thank you Lisa & Ink 180!

I went in less than a week ago to get my flat pierced (another form of helix piercing). I never…read morewrite reviews but I saw two others like my experience and wanted to share. The piercing was fine for the first 48 hours, but after, it started to throb tremendously. I have 14 other piercings including a conch, and have never experienced this pain. It got so bad I had to go to another tattoo shop to have it looked at. Turns out the jewelry was not medical grade and the post was so short, the swelling had caused the infection to form in the newly pierced skin. I ended up having to go to urgent care to get on antibiotics for the infection as my lymph nodes in my neck were swollen. I am extremely unhappy as I have heard so many great things about this shop. Plastic isn't for new piercings.

Spent 4 hours getting it cause he kept crying HIS hand hurt and going for constant smoke breaks while leaving me in the chair running up the clock. At one point he even had the nerve to WALK to the speedway which is a half mile at least down the road. Said he would do a free touch up but when I came back to get it touched up he got all whiny and then said he would only do the touch up while doing a new tattoo and even says he doesn't really like the design I showed for the new tattoo. So unhappy with the service I've gone and had the tattoo re done elsewhere because every time I looked at it I would get irritated and the memory of Dan Coralto effing me over.

Let them know I'd be coming after work (literally told them I get off at 7:15 in Elgin) she said sounds good. Yesterday I get there at 7:45 and they were gone! No one was there. Called and sent them a fb message. Not once did anyone mention they stop taking walk in at 7:30pm. I drove 25 min each way. Gas is around $5 a gallon. Their response was even crazier. Blaming being short staffed on Sunday but that was irrelevant. Then also told me I have to pay for new jewelry even if it is their fault on sizing. I wanted to love them so bad. The shop is so cute and the girls are sweet. But the lack of communication is ridiculous. Especially since I messaged them before 7:30pm yesterday to say I'm coming!

My artist was Craig and not only was he incredibly heavy handed, leaving my tattoo in intense pain the next couple days, but they dont use saniderm or properly sanitize their tools or the tattoo area. Im lucky if this doesnt get infected in the next couple days. Not to mention that the shading that I requested was thrown out the window, and Craig decided to do whatever he wanted. The lines are wonky and the anatomy of the tattoo is terrible, and I'm currently booking a touch up/coverup as I write this. DO NOT GO HERE.
