I Was told the day before we walked in,over the phone, I'd be able to bring my minor daughter in for her piercing on the following day since they had a piercer available all day. Confirmed I didn't need an appointment, and asked which forms of ID I needed. I tried to take my daughter after school on her birthday for a piercing and was rudely met by the receptionist, with a NO. Their piercer wasn't in. No apologizes for any miscommunication or letting us know when we could come back. Even after visibly seeing my upset daughter, the receptionist didn't even move out of her chair. Bummed. UPDATE- Manager called and apologized for the miscommunication. He was able to get my daughter into the studio that same evening for her piercing. The piercer and assistant were nice and talkative, both were very apologetic and took care of us. Thank you Chris for reaching out and setting us up with an appointment..

My friend and I went to True Art Tattoo for a belly button piercing, and from the moment we walked…read morein, the experience was disappointing. The piercer, a white woman with black hair, was unfriendly and came across as snarky and rude from the very beginning. Instead of taking my friend to a private area, she had her lift up her shirt in the lobby. She then had her sit on the couch, looked her up and down, shook her head, and told her she was "too fat" for a belly button piercing and that she didn't have the right anatomy. Whether or not someone is a candidate for a piercing, there is a respectful and professional way to communicate that. The way she spoke to my friend was humiliating and unnecessarily hurtful. My friend already struggles with body image, and hearing those comments from another woman left her feeling embarrassed and ashamed. Watching someone treat another person that way was upsetting. After leaving, we went to another piercing shop, where the piercer evaluated her professionally and completed the piercing without any issues. We were also told that the interaction we experienced at True Art Tattoo was handled in a very unprofessional manner. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend True Art Tattoo. We encountered rudeness, body shaming, and a complete lack of compassion and professionalism. No customer should leave feeling belittled over their body.

I was looking for a tribute tattoo, a saying in my sister's handwriting. Something that would remind me of her. And most importantly, I wanted the final result to really look like she put it there. Because the tattoo I wanted was small, they were able to schedule me fairly quickly, which helped make sure I didn't chicken out. We selected the tattoo size we thought would best fit, and got started. The whole process was quick. And the tattoo itself? Amazing. Better than what I hoped it could be. Thanks to Nate, I now have a piece of my sister, always with me. There are a couple other things to mention. The first thing I noticed about the shop is that it is spotless. Pristine. Second, everyone there is awesome. Very friendly and fun. Last was all of the amazing artwork everywhere. Tattoo artists are just that, artists, and I was blown away by the color and intricacy of the incredible work they do. Highly recommend this place so schedule your appointment today - you will not be disappointed!

Other shops in Cleveland might be more popular, but Black Metal is the BEST. I feel blessed to have this talent in our area, especially piercer Chris and artist Chad. (My arm by Chad is the Maleficent half-sleeve in the photos from 2014!) The shop is pristine & the guys here are goofy professionals playing loud music who care about making art on your body. You'll receive instructions on how the procedures will go and how to best care for your work when it's finished. I've gotten work done elsewhere on the West Side of Cleveland that healed like garbage -- that will never be the case at Black Metal. A serious gem about a mile West of South Park.
