Tattoo 5outta5 Benzo blew me away w/his creativity. The details he added brought the two pieces together seamlessly. Service 4.5outta5 It was a four hour session. This was my fourth piece. I've never been offered numbing spray but I asked for and received it. I wish that was standard practice but everyone's different & the pain can be pleasurably intoxicating at times. Chill atmosphere, diverse background music & cool artists. Very clean shop. The staff is an eclectic group. Whatever you're looking for, they can accommodate.

I've been getting tatted by the other owner, Joseph Pasion, for over a decade. He's grown to be an…read moreamazing artist and has fortunately hired some very phenomenal artists. The whole studio is set up creatively and each artist has their own decorative station. My most recent visit was with Justin, or @fatttattz on instagram. Justin was very patient, detailed, and thorough. After drawing out the original stencil design, he suggested to switch and flip the butterflies so it wouldn't be so "top heavy", and also advised that we should do a stipple effect on the vines so that it gave a more feminie look and that over time, the ink wouldn't look so harsh. He even decided to shade the butterflies for more definition and to blend the piece together. I am SO GLAD he gave his professional input and that I listened to him!!! I think it came out gorgeous and Im more than happy with how it all came out. He made sure to check in through out the whole process and he was hilarious!! I highly recommend JUSTIN !!! He told me he's been tatting since '99 and specializes in traditional tats but has started doing realism pieces. Tell him I sent ya !!!

However, I showed up to get a piercing and was met with unprofessionalism. Matt had talked to me like I was a child. Completely dehumanizing me and making me feel uncomfortable.

Everyone makes you feel like a regular, even if it's only your first or second time, and the whole vibe feels so authentic to the people who work there. A true 11/10 joint that I recommend to anyone I can.

I already had an infection from a botched job somewhere else plus a not so smart er doctor my nipple where Swollen, angry, red as hell--I thought I'd have to rip them out myself. But Shorty just took one look, no drama, and said, "Sit. We're fixing this." She was so calm and knowledgeable and kept me laughing throughout my ordeal she Gloved up, fresh everything, and slid those rings out with this gentle, steady pull. No tugging, no pain--just... gone. Like magic. Then she cleaned me up, gave me aftercare tips that actually worked, and told me to come back if I had any questions or problems. The whole thing Over in five minutes. And yeah--she's tiny, but those hands are rock-solid. Shorty is an Absolute legend great piercer, and knowledgeable medical field. I walked out feeling fixed, I'd let her save me again--any day. Thank you Shorty again you the best. thinking about getting my septum pierced definitely going to Shorty.

TLDR: I went in for a naval piercing and left without one and paid $20. With the unfriendly and…read moreunprofessional staff, hot and stuffy room, the piercer's baby crying in the small shop, and unclean practices I chose to leave. When I first walked in the male at the desk was not very friendly and did not even greet us. We were handed over to the piercers and one asked the other "Do you want her or do you want me to take her?" the other responded "I don't care". At this point I'm don't really feel like a valued customer, I'm just whatever to them. Not one person said hello to me, introduced themself, or even asked me my name. The whole process felt like I was being rushed and they wanted me in and out very quickly (despite no other customers in the shop). I was moved to the small room in the back and every question I asked felt like I was bothering the piercer, giving me short answers instead of helping me to make a decision. The jewelry did not seem properly sterilized, just quickly sprayed down, no autoclave machine. I did not even see the piercer wash her hands. With the unfriendly and unprofessional staff, hot and stuffy room, the piercer's baby crying in the small shop, and unclean practices I chose to leave. I did have to pay $20 because the piercer said she already opened the needle (which was opened before selecting jewelry and marking). Not complaining because I understand those are her supplies, but I wish she waited until she saw that I was ready and comfortable. Was hoping for a different outcome because I saw so many great reviews, but perhaps I caught them on an off day like a few other negative reviews mentioned
