Needed to take my smily out finally after 5 year i'm retiring it. The Pin Cushion was the first to…read morereply to my request, super quick. The energy and the vibe was a little off coming in. While the piercer was starting to remove the smily, I bled a little. I was bit shocked that when I slightly tapped her to stop pulling since it was starting to hurt, she just kept going. Wish she could have been more mindful to stop and made sure if I was ready to go again, felt like my skin was going to get ripped off (ultimately, this is what I was trying to avoid doing it myself) $5 plus some change to remove it, plus if you go when its a little busy you will have to do it on a time when you do not have to time crunch. I ended waiting 25+ min since there was a few people ahead of me.

The only star I am knocking was the lack of inventory. For the price you pay, wish there were more of a variety. Seemed like almost all were sold out behind the case.

It smelled weird as well like a sweaty locker room. It was busy so the lobby area was stuffy. We went to sit down and there was something that looked like a blood stain on the worn white couch. My thought is yes, this is the lobby but made me question what the piercing rooms would look like - would they be clean. We came into inquire - no service done. Also, they provided only two options - 10mm silver or gold studs The case looked almost empty and looks like others commented on this as well. The staff was nice however I do not think we will be back to have a service done.

I've had 10+ piercings done here and each time have had a great experience, they've healed perfectly when I follow their instructions.

None of my piercings have ever gotten infected and they look amazing. As long as you follow his after care package you are all set! He also has the nicest jewelry. Overall this place is amazing!

I really appreciated how easy it was to schedule and organize the tattoo appt, and Lauren was wonderful to work with as we fine tuned the look, size, and placement. The tattoo itself was done even better than I expected, and they provided a very cool saniderm patch that protected it for 3 days, which delayed the constant washing / lotion that I've had to do in other tattoos. It's looking wonderful now that it's almost healed and I'm so grateful! Everyone was very nice, it's a comfortable shop, and we got to watch Brooklyn 99 while we were doing the planning and tattoo, what more could you want?
