1/5 -- Terrible experience, especially for something I had planned for years I genuinely hate leaving reviews like this, but my experience with this shop was unacceptable. I came in on my birthday for a Haku tattoo that I had been planning and looking forward to for years. I was originally quoted $900. The artist, Abi, convinced me to make the tattoo significantly larger than I had originally wanted. We then waited about an hour and a half for her to get started and work on the design. Once we were finally supposed to begin tattooing, her machine was dead, so we had to sit there for roughly another hour waiting for it to charge. But the worst part happened after the tattoo had already started. When Abi was almost completely finished with the outline, the shop owner walked over and asked, "So what's the plan here?" I was then told that because of the size of the tattoo -- the size I had been convinced to get -- and because they now considered it a "half sleeve," the $900 was only going to cover the outline. If I actually wanted the tattoo finished with color, I was told it would be another $500. So the price effectively went from the $900 I had been quoted to $1,400 after the tattoo was already outlined on my body. At that point, what exactly was I supposed to do? Walk out with an unfinished outline covering my arm? It was my birthday, I had planned this tattoo for years, and I was already committed once the tattoo was on my skin. The way the additional charge was presented felt hostile and incredibly money-driven. After paying all of that and finally finishing, I wasn't even given what I would consider adequate aftercare wrapping. No second skin was offered. My tattoo was covered with Saran Wrap and tape, which started falling apart almost immediately after I left the shop. To make matters worse, the finished design did not come close to the reference image I had provided. When I later brought up the things I was unhappy with, Abi told me that I only had three months to receive a free touch-up because that was supposedly the shop policy. That three-month restriction was never explained to me at my appointment. What I was told was that touch-ups were free. Neither my partner nor I remember being told there was any three-month deadline. When I pointed that out and tried to address my concerns, Abi blocked me on Instagram. That was apparently the resolution after I spent $1,400 on a tattoo I had dreamed about for years. I can deal with delays. I can deal with mistakes. What I can't accept is being quoted one price, being convinced to increase the size of the tattoo, having the price substantially increased after the tattoo was already on my body, and then being blocked when I raised concerns about the finished work and a touch-up policy that was never clearly communicated to me. This should have been an awesome birthday memory. Instead, the entire experience left me feeling taken advantage of. avoid this shop read more

Such an awesome experience getting mother-daughter double high lobe piercings with Tex and Olive. They were professional and we love the way the piercings look. Love even more that this neighborhood business is female owned and operated!! read more

DO NOT GO HERE. My experience with this place was around a year ago, but I was reminded of the place today when I saw a tiktok of a girl showing her experience here and how bad it was. I just want to caution others to do your research before coming here. My boyfriend came in to see if he could get a replacement ball for his anti-eyebrow piercing because he was missing one. They did not have it but offered to change out the piercing bar instead. He ended up agreeing because he didn't have enough time to go anywhere else and figured it wouldn't be a big deal. The lady (i don't remember her name but she looked like a white girl with black hair and she also had an apprentice with her) said she was could do it and made it seem like she knew what she was doing. SHE DID NOT. For those who don't know, the bar is like a staple shape and this piercing can easily reject. he has had this piercing for YEARS and never had any issues- it was perfect till she touched it. It took her about 20 minutes and she was just tugging and pulling and digging around in the hole of his piercing trying to get the other jewelry in. I could tell she was getting frustrated and she basically ended up re-piercing the hole he had but not good at all- much closer to the surface, and tried to play it off like it was switched when she really just re-pierced it. He still has the piercing but it's not the same at all. The edges come out more and the middle between the balls always looks swollen because the bar is too close to the surface and the built up scar tissue. It's okay if someone is still learning piercings, but you have to be honest about your experience when it comes to easily rejected piercings like this. At the end of the day what's done is done, but they need to do better and I would not recommend this place to anyone (especially after seeing the recent tiktok that blew up) which is a shame because it seemed like it was a women owned shop which we wanted to support. read more

My son wanted his ears pierced, and I didn't want a mall teenager with a nail gun shooting metal into my sons ear, so I did some research and found this place. I called and was told I could drop in, and was informed of the documents I needed. Then the plan was set. My son bugged me every ten minutes over the weekend, so by 6PM or so, away we went to get the job done. This place located in the middle of Plano in a strip mall location. Once you walk in the door, you immediately get a great vibe. The place is clean, there's music playing, but not too loud and the music was great. The employees are all AWESOME and look of the rooms was really cool. Theres lots of cool art on the walls, they even have a throne on one side of the room. After we get through the logistics, my piercer speaks to us. Her name is Tex. Here's what I love. Tex knows her trade. When she speaks on piercing, she knows everything about it, and exudes confidence. As a Dad, it's a relief to experience someone so knowledgeable. On to the counter we go. We picked out the earrings and I cracked few jokes to calm my sons nerves. Pretty soon we were on the path to getting his piercing. Tex worked with my son and I explaining which earrings he was allowed to wear and why. Then we had to wait around 15 minutes for the sterilization process, but it was an easy 15 minutes since they have snacks, water and great music to keep you busy. I'll also add that I felt very comfortable waiting and watching the people interact, you can tell they're like family running a business. Before you know it, its time. Tex comes and gets us, and takes us to the front room. The process is pretty quick yet delicate, and Tex talked my son through it. Tex made sure we liked where the earrings would go. Minutes later, my sons ears are pierced and we're good to go. We then moved to the main counter where Tex explained the cleaning, the options and the process for the the next month or two. I gotta say, this was a great experience, and Tex made it even greater being so knowledgeable and explaining everything to my son and I. Thank you Vixen Body Art for a fantastic experience, way to stand out! read more

What an amazing place to get a tattoo. Everyone is super friendly and the shop is very inviting. I was happy to find out they do piercings and permanent makeup. I love Leah who made vision (a tribute to my mother and grandmother) happen. I'll be back. read more

Love this studio! Came in for a nose piercing and the lady who did mine was very informative, professional and friendly. I came back after a few months to make sure it was healing well and again got a friendly staff who was very helpful and answered any questions I had. Would definitely recommend for piercings. Also I love the environment. The inside is super cute and aesthetic. read more

I have been here many times. I've recommended this place to friends and family, but after my first visit, the customer service was horrible and I will never be back. I had my Medusa piercing done here. With that, you are able to come back and get your jewelry shortened for $10. If you didn't get it pierced there, jewelry is $20. I messaged the piercer one day, asking to come in and reminded her who I was. I came in, told the receptionist who I was, to which she TOLD me I didn't get it pierced there. Then, the piercer I messaged on Instagram came out, and she also told me I didn't get my piercing there. They ganged up on me in the lobby, as they shuffled through paperwork, finally finding mine from the day I indeed got it done there. I was humiliated, over a $10 difference.... The way that was handled was not okay and extremely embarrassing. They told me they "thought I was the owners friend." ?????? I came back in an emergency, only because it was close and my lip was beginning to swell over my jewelry. My lip had swollen pretty bad, I was crying and having an anxiety attack. The piercer literally LAUGHED IN MY FACE, and had to say, "I'm not laughing at you" as if anyone else were around in the tiny piercing room we were in. No one else was in the lobby either... horrible experiences both times, which really sucks because I wanted to support an all women owned shop near me. read more

Customer service is ok. Overpriced piercings. I got one tattoo and the tattoo artist was too heavy handed which caused a blow out. Ultimately went elsewhere for a cover up. Tattoo artist was "Steph" I recall smiling at one of the female tattoo artist and she was really stuck up & rude which is funny to me because it's a female based shop. read more

These ladies did an incredible making something beautiful from something so tragic in my past. I walked in sharing a very dark piece of my history with a need to write truth on my forearm. Highly recommend Nathena, she took time to match my previous tattoos so all the script seemed to flow together. She also took time to ensure her design was exactly what I needed. Not only did she take extremely good care of me but even the owner stopped by to check in on me. I would 10/10 recommend the experience. While I was there, I went ahead and got my second piercing- Tex and Olive were both very kind and considerate of making sure I was comfortable. Maya was also very kind and sweet- offering comfort following what I shared with these ladies. It's rare that you find people who not only care about their job but their cliental as well. Very very impressed. read more

I had called several shops asking for assistance with changing out my nose ring. This shop actually took the time to explain the gauge and mm size, no other shop did that. I then decided this was my place and hurried there. The place is decorated so nicely, smelled and looked immaculate. Everyone I came in contact with was so nice and personable. They had a great selection of body jewelry and other items for sale. They removed my previous nose ring, saline and prepped my nose for the new jewelry. The process was easy and painless. I'm considering a 1/4 girly sleeve perhaps I'm having a mid life crisis lol but this will definitely be my top pick for it! read more

I had an appointment with Leah for a tattoo! First impression walking in was it's super chic, very clean, and a very gorgeous array of jewelry to choose for piercings. Everyone was super warm and welcoming and professional- and really nice! Leah did my tattoo, and first off, she's an amazing artist. Very thorough with hygiene/cleanliness, and if you have any questions she is super knowledgeable and explains everything. She's also very sweet, and a good conversationalist! I love the attention to detail, and the shading done- overall I love the shop, and want to go back soon! read more

Been shopping the walk-in vibe of several different studios for small floral work before choosing one for a memorial piece, and this was definitely an interesting experience. Not naming the artist, but they seemed more than disinterested. I will always ask for recommendations to try and learn more about the artist (as I want *their* art on my body, not google chaff), and they were a brick wall. Staff behind the counter were nice and welcoming, and got me a card for a different artist to get into contact with. Thank you to y'all. As I turned and got to the door, I could hear the artist very clearly misgender me and say they could "tell I didn't know" what I wanted read more

My daughter and I went here to get our second lobe piercings. Staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodated our walk-in.

My wife decided to get a new tattoo and we had heard about this place. We went for her initial consultation and loved this place. It is so bright and clean, with a great mix of music. I had been on the fence about having another one done but I felt so comfortable here, I decided to get another one myself. Nathena did my tattoo the following Friday (yesterday) and it turned out amazing! We're so glad to have found this place! I'm already thinking about my next tattoo! read more

Great looking shop with great artists! I had a great experience and I also really appreciated the careful consultation they did for another client.

I love this shop! It's all female run and it's super duper welcoming. Everyone here is so friendly, The studio is very nice and VERY clean. There's lots of jewelry up front and the back is spacious and cutely decorated. I'm so incredibly happy with my tattoo! I was tatted by Stephanie, she was so friendly and made me feel way less nervous than I was at first. I'm not a talkative person but it was extremely comfortable being tattooed in silence. The prices are very reasonable and it's great experience overall. I highly recommend this shop, it's fairly new so I hope the best for this place! I'll definitely be coming back when I visit Texas again :) read more

What an amazing studio! Cookie was so nice and helpful! I love my new ink and will be back for sure!

Updating my review because I was just told by another piercer that instead of 18 gauge rings, 20 gauge rings (not what I was pierced with and not standard for helix piercings) were what she used to change out my jewelry. I would have expected a piercer to know the difference since clearly I would be relying on her expertise. read more

This tattoo shop and boutique opened up behind our house about a year ago. My wife and I drove by and noticed it. I love American traditional tattoos, and my wife loves fine line work. She wanted to check it out after we looked it up...an all female shop specializing in fine line and piercings. My wife had several piercings as well and wanted to look at hardware and jewelry they had. When we went in, I honestly felt a bit out of place. Lots of pink and I here I am, a man, in an all female shop. Part of me didn't feel comfortable being in their safe space. The old school tattoo world can be very cold towards women artist. But, I tell you, I have never felt anything but welcome at this place. I first went only to support my wife and her interest in the shop. I now look forward to going and saying "hello" to Stephanie and her crew of talented ladies. Addie is amazing with her line work. And guess what I found? A woman named Nathena, who loves American traditional! She has done four pieces on me. Mostly Sailor Jerry style flash. She loves to teach the other artists there about traditional rules (rule of three, number of pedals on a rose, etc.) Yoyo is new, and she loves traditional as well. Her flash is dang good, and I have a couple of hers. The place is bright and clean. They have a great atmosphere, and all I see are smiling faces from all of the guest and patrons as they leave, and the genuine hospitality and great artistry from the artists. This shop os a great addition to the neighborhood, and I love supporting them. read more

All the girls at the shop were encouraging too, fun and tried to put me at ease as well. Thank you for a great experience Bella! read more

I went to Vixen Body Art on Saturday 2/25/23. Kaia was my tattoo artist. they are very overpriced for a small simple tattoo was $200. Now almost a week later almost all the ink has pulled out of the tattoo. I have multiple tattoos and I've never had an issue. This is the worst tattoo I have ever received. It looks like a prison tattoo. I have called multiple times to the shop left a voice messages. No one returned my phone call, this is very poor business. Now I'm stuck with this nightmare of a tattoo that looks like garbage. I was told that I'm only allowed one touch up. Ummmmmm I literally need this whole tattoo redone by someone else. The below pictures don't even show all the other parts that literally have no ink again this is not even a week old. read more
