It really felt like this was an occasion just for her. My daughter was pretty nervous going in, but James was absolutely fantastic with her. He was calm, patient, and took the time to talk her through everything, which really helped soothe her nerves. By the time it was done, she felt proud and excited rather than scared. The entire service was phenomenal from start to finish. James was professional, kind, and clearly cared about making it a positive experience. The Parlour itself is also really cool; clean, welcoming, and full of personality. I honestly wish every retail or service experience I had was handled with this level of care and thoughtfulness. It made a moment my daughter was nervous about turn into a really special memory for both of us.

Once you "schedule" your appointment, they will send another email with a link for a deposit that must be made within 24 hours to hold and secure your appointment date and time. This is a $50 deposit towards your final total. We arrived at the Parlour and were advised that there is only street parking, so be prepared. Our appointment was with James for a second earlobe piercing for my daughter. Please pay attention to their website as they require a birth certificate if your child and the consenting parents ID, too. My daughter and I both signed consent forms and then he took us upstairs to look at jewelry. They have a wide and beautiful selection. He was very patient and informative with my daughter for her to choose what she wanted. She chose beautiful champagne colored studs He then advised us that he needs to sanitize and prep his station and the jewelry so it would be about 10 minutes. My daughter and I went back downstairs and waited a bit. After he was finished, he took us to his room and explained the process in detail to my daughter all along the way. He marked my daughter's ears and then measured her ear lobes and showed her where the earrings would be placed. Everything was sterilized and each needle is only used once and then disposed of properly. My daughter did have anxiety but didn't really show it, especially after the first ear lobe was done. James advised her how to breathe each time he would pierce her ear and she followed his directions. Again, he was very patient and professional. He gave her after care instructions and a cleanser. Since we are only visiting from Vegas, he told us to send an email about any follow ups regarding the posts in her ears if we wanted them shorter after they healed. He said he would reach out to his contacts in Vegas to help with this when the time comes. We were both very happy with the experience and my daughter was ecstatic with her new piercing. She had a previous gun piercing (my bad, I know now), so this was a much better experience. I highly recommend the Parlour.

I…read morehave been there several times working on a large back piece and it have never had any complaints. The facilities The tattoo parlor itself is one of the nicer ones I've been in. It is very clean and well kept and the artists booths are a good size and private. The tattoo chairs/tables are very comfortable and in good repair and all of their equipment is top notch. The Tattoo I personally have only been tattooed by Carrie but I have seen art and tattoos from all of the artists and it is spectacular. Carrie is very amazing at coming up with original and dynamic designs for her clients. She was very enthusiastic about the tattoo and was easy to talk to throughout the whole process. Since she designed the piece herself she contacted me several times to show me her progress on the piece and make sure it was exactly what I was looking for. On the tattoo days Carrie was really professional and understanding. She worked at my pace and always made sure if I needed a break or anything else that I got it. She has great skill when it comes to tattooing so there was no scraping or digging that would make it more painful. The tattoo itself came out very clean. Her line work is strong and smooth and her colors are vibrant. My piece took several sessions and it looks like it was done in one sitting. There are no color variations or alterations in the piece whatsoever. The only real negative is the wait times they have. There is usually a significant wait (weeks to months) for appointments. It is however understandable because of they are doing their own art and they are a small shop. I would recommend Black Bat for a tattoo to anyone who wants to get some great original artwork done.
