She asked me if she could get this on her forearm and I agreed. We learned that you have to be 18 in Illinois to get a tat, and she's just shy of 16.

Our appointment was with Jim, who explained everything thoroughly and was very friendly and kind. 45 minutes later we were done and my daughter couldn't be happier.

It didn't really look like she cared for clients safety cause coughing without a mask when handling the piercings. We agree to have her order my piercings that I wanted. You would think that it would take less than a week or two get them. It's been a month. She hasn't even called me once to let know what's happening going. I did call her once just for her to tell that she had to reorder them and then never heard from again. I finally ordered my jewelry myself and it got here less than a week.

The receptionist was quite snarky with her responses. STAY AWAY, BEWARE!!!!!!
