My daughter got 2 piercings couple of days ago that instantly got infected, her ear turned purple and hot. She ended up getting sick from it and on antibiotics. Last piercing she got couple months ago from here got infected too. Maybe bad jewelry or unsanitary stuff. Was told it was her fault and she probably didn't clean it right. Go to addicted to ink, those piercings gave no problems.

I walked in to see if they could do a tattoo for me. I started telling the guy at the front desk about what I wanted, he asked if I had a picture I could email, I said sure I can email it. Right then some other guy walked up off the street. He starts talking to the guy behind the desk, and next thing you know he starting to pull up concepts on the internet to show to him. I interrupted their conversation and asked "Can I have the email address please?" Because clearly I was there first.



The guy there says "I dont even know the email address, its some long email, but there will be a girl here soon so just wait"



I am sitting there waiting for another 25 minutes, and a big guy walks in, looks like the owner. He yells at the kid that cut me in line, and tells him to lower his voice.



Then the kid walks out to get a bottle of water while the other guy that worked there starts drawing up his stencil.



So I politely asked, "how long do you think it will be until that girl gets here, I have been waiting here for a while"



The owner says to me "well if thats the way you feel about it, the door is right there, feel free to use it"



I said "okay, thank you" and proceed to walk out. As I close the door, I over hear the owner say "F@#& You" I walk back in and say "What did you say?" He says to me as his tone goes from low to screaming while walking over to me "You heard what I said! I Would love for you to try it because I AM READY FOR IT"



He gets in my face and I said to him "Really Man? This is how you treat your customers?" "You are a Joke Man!" I laugh and I walk away, as I am walking down the street he is still yelling obscenities towards me.



If this is the type of behavior you can put up with, then go, if not, then I would leave them alone. This was a total let down!

I've been to this location before, and although the artistry is good, the people aren't. Be prepared for unfriendly workers who try and change the idea of your tattoo, because they don't feel like working too hard. If you catch the artists on a good day, they may not belittle you so much.
