East Coast Ink: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing and they are so polite. The moment I walked in I was greeted and offered a beverage. They are both so easy to talk to and joke around with its like I new them forever. They allowed me to create my own piece and when I thought of an idea to add They did it know problem matter a fact he loved the new color I asked to be added. The tat came out better then I could have ever imagine. I can not wait to go back. Tats are my therapy. Thank u so much and I love our selfie we took.

Ty Emily
Fantastic experience: I had the best experience ever!! This was my first time ever getting a face piercing and it looks amazing. Kym blackhart is absolutely amazing at what she does. 100% recommend
Fantastic experience: Jimmy is an amazing artist and great friend. I absolutely love the shop environment. Jimmy by far went above and beyond with my tattoo today.
Fantastic experience: I literally love them. She does so good on all my piercings. I will only go to her for all my piercings. She is literally amazing.
Negative experience: DO NOT GO HERE! Jimmy will be drunk and high doing your tattoo and it will look terrible. Also, he is not nice to his employees. He’s also very inappropriate.
Never seen this person must be the tattoo artist I fired Alec. Haters will hate ha ha. I don’t drink and I don’t smoke weed so this is a lie ha ha
Fantastic experience: Awesome man all I can say, Jimmie was great and kym was so SO friendly and kind, love this place. Forever my go too
Fantastic experience: Kym was great, she was ver nice and I was able to sit throughout the whole tattoo and was quick! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Got my surface bar piercing—Kym was very kind and talked me through the whole process. The service even included free candy and drinks!
Fantastic experience: Did a great job on my tattoo earlier, me and my girl came in and he was a super nice guy and talented in his work.
Fantastic experience: me and my best friend got dermals here , great customer service from jimmy east !
Negative experience: please do NOT go here. they pierced my rook completely wrong, and it got infected. the place smells like cigarettes, and isnt sanitary.
All false statement not one person in my shop smokes cigs and it’s mopped and calvacide completely wipe down all our chairs. Just another hater trying to take us down.
Negative experience: lowkey really unprofessional. they were allowing people to drink beer while getting pierced. place gives a dirty chop shop vibe
Lie lie lie another fake review. Cuz I fried a artist that could not control his behavior.
Fantastic experience: Got my nose pierced ! Amazing shop! Jimmie East was so awesome !! Best piercing I’ve ever gotten! Thanks eastcoastink! I’ll be back !
Fantastic experience: Had the absolute best experience getting duo tattoos with Jimmie on Monday! He is far more than just a talented artist; his personality made the entire session unforgettable. Jimmie is incredibly sweet and very silly, which immediately created a comfortable and fun environment for both me and my best friend. The cleanliness, the setup, and his attention to detail were all a 10/10. You can tell how much he truly cares about the art he puts on your body. We are both so happy with the results and can't wait until they are fully healed. Book Jimmie!! You won’t regret it!!!
Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo done here with east coast ink and it was a great experience. Jimmie did my tattoo and I was nervous and he made the experience light hearted and funny. He was also extremely understanding and accommodating to my pain and I really appreciated that. Great experience over all will go back again
Negative experience: if i could do 0 stars i would, i called to get a piercing and she said it would be $60 on the phone, when i got there… she said $80. Which was already my suspicion.. i got a eyebrow piercing and it got super badly infected so i went to go get it taken out. the piercer who took it out said i did NOT have the right anatomy for a eyebrow piercing and that the bar was way to small. so if your gonna get a piercer go somewhere where they won’t take your money and be crooks and not use proper piercings.
This is another fake review hater not even been to our shop cuz we have our stuff priced out at 80 for almost every piercing. So this is false review. If u walk into our shop we have a board that has all our pricing for piercings. So nice try hater keep stepping loser
Fantastic experience: Let me just say — Kym Blackheart at East Coast Ink Company is a literal goddess with a needle. ♀️✨ She somehow made my piercings pain-free (yes, actual magic), kept me laughing the whole time, and made sure I knew exactly what was going on like the caring queen she is. She’s not just amazing at her job — she’s got the kind of energy that makes you instantly feel safe, hyped, and like you’re besties by the end of it. I’m completely obsessed with how she’s curating my ear — every piece is perfectly “me,” and she’s doing it all without sending my bank account into cardiac arrest. Kym, thank you for being hilarious, talented, and genuinely the sweetest human ever. I’ll absolutely be back because I trust no one else with my ear sparkle journey. ✨
Fantastic experience: I have now had three recent tattoos done here (4 counting one from 2015, but most from Jimmy himself) and they have been great. He gives great aftercare advice, and he touched up my 15-year old tattoo to make it look better with the new one I got today. His location is great for the Northtowns and I will probably return in mere months. Such a comfortable atmosphere and great work can be expected.
Fantastic experience: Super friendly and knowledgeable staff made the selection and application of my first tattoo seamless and enjoyable.
Fantastic experience: Jimmie was wonderful. Great experience. Got an appointment the same day, super easy!! Great prices as well!!
Thank you for the nice words about me. Thank you for signing up for tge leg sleeve special $300 a session each session until your leg sleeve is done 5 hour sessions
Fantastic experience: I was a walk in and was accommodated immediately and given advice and requested my opinion numerous times. I didn’t leave with any regrets and would recommend her for any ink. Price was good for a medium sized tattoo alongside consultation. Her apprentice Jewels also made the experience better and helped me decide on an anti tragus which was funner than what I originally came in. Will be back for a future piercing.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience getting my first tattoo with Jimmie, the shop was super clean and welcoming. I felt totally comfortable from start to finish and he took the time to understand exactly what I wanted. He also showed care during the process and gave me some good tips for future experiences. I am beyond happy with how my tattoo turned out and will definitely be back. If you are looking for a reliable place in the Buffalo area, I definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: Got my mid helix pierced by Kym. She did an amazing job! She was so nice and helpful, gave me all the tips that i needed for aftercare of my piercing. I would 100% reccomend
Fantastic experience: Jimmie did a great job with my tat! Friendly and professional. Definitely recommend this place!
Fantastic experience: Super awesome Came in with an idea and I felt with work done 3times better by Jimmie East and it’s a beautiful work of art I really love the place And I’m always going back to get more
Fantastic experience: Got both my septum and both snakebites here!! Jimmie did my septum back in feburary, Kym did my snakebites. Both of them are super cool and the vibe was great. I'd totally reccomend!! snakebites; $120 each ($240 tg) septum; $100
Fantastic experience: Kym absolutely crushed my third lobe hole. She was quick, communicative and I barely felt it. Her apprentice was sweet and you could tell Kym was really doing a great job teacher her. Would 100% return
Thank you Kim is an amazing piercer as me being the owner. I taught her six years ago how to pierce and she’s blown it out of the water and taking it to a whole new level. We appreciate your business and thank you.
Fantastic experience: Went in to get my son's ears pierced. Kym Blackheart was knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely recommend them.
Fantastic experience: I just did a nose piercing and my second lobes (which I didn’t even plan on getting!) with Kym for my 16th birthday present. She was so so kind and understanding, and is a VERY quick piercer so I felt little pain:) Thank you so much
Fantastic experience: Nice people, Alec & Jimmy made the environment fun and welcoming. Great work! Talented people!
Thank you we try to go 110% on everything we do we don’t make mistakes. Our line work are shading or color. Packing is impeccable. That’s what we do. We want our customers only have the best Tattoo on them no rush no hurry just perfect perfection thank you for your review. Have a great day
Fantastic experience: Walked in for my first ever ear piercings, great service, the process was quick with minimal pain. Very friendly and down to earth atmosphere. I will be returning for all other piercings and tattoos in my future!
Negative experience: I received my very first tattoo a few years back a at this location on Millersport Hwy, Buffalo since I attended UB that was nearby. I’m oblivious since it’s my very first tattoo unsure on how pricing worked and their quality I gave this tattoo shop a chance. Worst tattoo artist his name Jimmie or Johnniethe owner/tattoo artist or both. I have currently 6 tattoos now but by far my first tattoo from here was the most sloppiest, unprofessional with the amount of weed smoke breaks he had, quality of work was not worth the price named by him, Jimmie/Johnnie I’m thinking his name Jimmie very heavy handedI get your a big tattoo artist in terms of body size but doesn’t mean I need bumps on my arm from the deep lines you made, was also even bleeding on my arm for 2-3 days straight due to how heavy handed your tracing of a tattoo was. Literally the other 5 tattoos I’ve had no bumps, quality was worth its price, bleeding stopped for me less then 24hrs for my other tattoos that’s not here. To wrap things up I honestly wish I could give a zero or negative rating for this shop but I cant, if you want a simple tattoos or some words/letters for a tattoo this could be a place for you maybe can’t mess that up right?? but if you want better realism or quality art tattoos I highly highly recommend elsewhere not worth the price and quality especially if it’s your first don’t be like me! Don’t be fooled by the amount of 5 stars he offers discounts or coupons to customers to give him 5 stars rating so the true actual 5 star rating may be actually lower then it seems. Even though it’s been years since I got a tattoo here just doesn’t sit right with me so just want to give people a fair warning. It’s worth it to spend a bit more for the quality since tattoos are permanent would want something you like/love and not something you hate/disgust/regret.
Fantastic experience: The other day I got a tattoo by Jimmie East the owner. He did an amazing job and it was done very efficiently!
Negative experience: Completely unprofessional all I did was get jewelry from an existing piercing removed which is free everywhere else she didn't talk price till after the service and even before we started the shop owner yelled at me she was completely unprofessional and talked badly about my piercer and she charged me 20 dollars after the fact and I didnt even have her put in new jewelry
Fantastic experience: I last minute, was looking for somewhere to take my daughter to get her ears pierced on her birthday. I called East Coast Ink and Kym came in on her day off to get it done. She was so good with explaining everything and calming my daughter down when she got nervous. So happy with our experience and will def be back with my other two daughters!!! Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: Just left after getting a tattoo with Alec and I am so happy! It was my first tattoo and I was a tad nervous but everyone was so nice and helped me. everything was clean and smelled clean when you walked in. He was very kind and helped with my vision even though I wasn’t sure what I totally wanted. Lines were super clean and attention to detail was impeccable. Will be getting more with him at this shop in the near future!
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t be more please and happy with my experience. I called to get an appointment for my daughter first tattoo for her birthday. The owner Jimmie got me in the next day. He was absolutely amazing. Not only did we get the best tattoos, but the great customer service and hospitality was amazing. I will recommend East Coast Ink to anyone. Thank you for making our experience and day wonderdul
Fantastic experience: A couple weeks ago I went to East Coast Ink for a tattoo appointment (and unplanned ear piercing by the best in Buffalo, Kym who is so smart and genuine in what she does and is an extremely awesome person to be around!) and I left amazing looking tattoos and piercing. They really made an impact on me beyond the services as they are so personable, hilarious and had one of the best times ever with them that day, I’ll never forget it! If you want a great tattoo or piercing with added fun and memories, this is the spot!
Fantastic experience: My daughter and I came in for ear piercings, she got her daith pierced and I was unsure of what I wanted. Kym was fantastic, gave me recommendations and I ended up with two that she suggested. The process was easy and fun. Kym took her time with both of us, explained everything, answered all of our questions and we left very happy! No problems healing at all because we’re following her post care instructions. We will definitely be back!
Positive experience: Jimmie East was friendly. At first I was scared, but he made sure that I was comfortable in the placement of my piercing. He made small talk and was easy to talk to.
Fantastic experience: I got my bellybutton pierced. Everyone there was so nice and the guy that did It was funny as heck. Totally recommend going here.
Fantastic experience: had a troubles with my navel piercing from another piercer and jimmie helped me find jewelry that fit and gave me the proper instructions to making it heal ASAP. he’s super trustworthy, kind, and funny! so thankful for him and this shop!!!
Negative experience: My cousins and I came in for a tiny tattoo. They said they accepted walk ins. We walked in and there was a guy sitting on the chair. At first I thought he was waiting for a tattoo. Turns out he was an "artist." His demeanor was rude right off the bat. We called in ahead of time to make sure they accepted walk ins. There were 5 of us. Maybe we should have specified, but that doesnt warrant shitty attitude. The girl working was just as rude. The entire time all they did was talk shit and even made a snarky comment about my physical appearance and another customers physical appearance, then claimed they were joking as we decided to leave. Bad customer service. 0/5 stars if I could.
Fantastic experience: Got my toddler’s ears pierced with Kym. She was fantastic! Kym walked my daughter through every step and was so kind and nice. We would definitely return to work with her again!
Fantastic experience: jimmie east came in on his day off to accommodate mine and my friend work schedule , truly grateful and appreciate his time and commitment, fun experience for sure
Negative experience: Went for a bellybutton piercing first couple of times he did it it was crooked so in total my belly button was pierced three times, by the third time I threw up and passed out. I left with it straight, but it never 100% healed and a couple of weeks ago my skin ripped open and the piercing fell out. absolutely horrible experience do not go here.
I don’t do piercings so this is a lie
Negative experience: Kim’s tattoo work was not good. look at the tattoo and look at stencil, it says it all. This cost $225. The appointment was booked with Jimmy, who seems like a respectable artist, but for some reason it was passed it off to Kym last minute. Jimmy reached out after the fact apologizing and offered kindly to fix my sisters tattoo and give her a free one, but since it’s still healing we will not be going back at this time. I do think his offer was very kind and respectable
Negative experience: Memorial tattoo gone bad..This was my 1st tattoo. I showed him exactly what I wanted with great details. He was price gouging for the tattoo. The tattoo took 3 days session, he originally quoted 2 days...a 4 session was needed I refused because I was uncomfortable in that atmosphere. 15 plus yrs of experience wasn't demonstrated through this horrible free style tattoo. He went too big with this free style design, he got lost in the design and didn't have the skills to pull the design together. A lot of details were left out of the tattoo but the price only went up. He was rude, I thought was going to have to physically defend myself!!
Fantastic experience: Jimmie and Kym were great to work with! Jimmie is a hoot! They are knowledgeable and skilled in their crafts…it was a very fun experience! I stopped in on a whim on vacation for my granddaughter’s ear piercing and stayed for eyebrow tattoos for myself…I’m sure this will be a life-changing experience
Fantastic experience: Kym pierced my seconds and thirds, she was very kind and made me feel very comfortable during the piercings. She was very fast and my piercings look great.
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience getting my ears pierced here! The service was top-notch — the staff was so friendly, kind, and personable. They really took the time to explain everything and made me feel completely at ease. The space was super clean and professional, which made me feel safe and confident in the process. Kym was incredibly precise and gentle, and you can tell she truly cares about doing a great job. Highly recommend if you want a smooth, safe, and welcoming piercing experience!
Fantastic experience: got my belly button pierced here by kym. This was a great experience we had a little difficulty with the jewlery but no biggy it was not her fault. i got explained on how to take care of it and the people here are amazing!!
Negative experience: If I could rate this place 0 stars I would, unfortunately yelp makes you at least rate it 1 star. The owner Jimmy and his accomplice (the piecer) are highly unprofessional and lacked basic etiquette when it comes to being an owner of a shop and being a tattooer in general. I went into the shop and experienced sexual harassment the entire time, the owner made me strip down to basically naked unnecessarily, making sexual advances and comments. Making inappropriate advances. Highly would not recommend any woman going in this establishment. If anything it should be shut down.
Fantastic experience: Just got my fresh new ink from the best tattoo shop i’ve been to in the WNY area. If you are having doubts about coming here please get rid of those doubts. Jimmie East is one of the most kind hearted person Ive meet out of all the artists ive come in contact with. He is always making sure you are good and well hydrated before he even thinks about touching a needle to you. And Alec Szluchetka is another artist i had assisting Jimmie in this tattoo. They were both amazing, Alec was there to help distract my mind and ensure the right moves were made to make this an exceptional tattoo!!! Kym blackhart their piercer is also one of the best around, she will set you up with all your piercings and after care needs!!! She is always there to help ease the nerves and tension of getting a tattoo or a piercing!!! Just because my review is mainly about ink doesnt mean she doesn’t deserve a shoutout as well!!! When i got my 2nd nose piercing she was there to comfort me and make sure I was set before putting any needles to my skin!! THESE PEOPLE WILL GET YOU RIGHT!!! Please don’t consider anyone else!!! THEY ARE THE BEST L!!!!
Fantastic experience: i went to get my eyebrow pierced here and had it done by kym. it was a very good experience, friendly and inviting! the piercing wasn't painful and i was well informed on care for it and the process on getting it pierced and she gave me a spray to clean it after as well as advice and a personal card in case i needed advice on aftercare. in total it cost $100 and was worth it
Fantastic experience: We came in for a graduation and I decided to get my nose pierced while up there. It was very fast and over before I knew it. Would highly recommend. We are from Kentucky
Fantastic experience: East Coast took me in right away, I got pierced by Kym. She did a fantastic job. Im so so happy with my nose piercing. I would recommend to everyone!
Fantastic experience: Got a simple ear piercing with my friends. Walk in appointment with kym, couldn’t be happier. She talked us through the process and cracked jokes the whole time. Wonderful experience, will be going back
Fantastic experience: Kym did amazing job bringing my tattoo to life with amazing cover up i couldnt be happier her and jimmie was also really good with my daughter coming to watch thank you both we will def be back
Fantastic experience: Jimmie was great with my friends and I. We came in for a small tattoo, he was very quick, funny and made us comfortable. Alec did my tattoo and it turned out great! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Jimmie did an awesome job. I told him what i wanted and he made it happen. I got a wolf tattoo for my dad with a dream catcher. This means so much to me because I have been wanting to get this done for my dad for so long. My dad passed away January this year so this means so much to me!
Fantastic experience: Got my nose pierced by Kim, she did an amazing job!!! She made sure that I was very comfortable and made the piercing process practically painless. I 100% will be coming back to get pierced by her again.
Fantastic experience: Shop is clean, they were able to accommodate my busy schedule and get my daughter in quickly. The piercer was great with her and explained everything directly to her so she could understand how to take care of herself after, we definitely will return for a future visit
Negative experience: I rarely leave reviews, but this is one of the worst experiences I've had getting tattooed. And I've been to many tattoo artists. Jimmie East was highly unprofessional, both during and after my tattoo session this week. He made several inappropriate comments. He offered me alcohol and cannabis multiple times, even after each refusal. His only apology was "I'm sorry if I offended you." I was uncomfortable to say the least, and when I told him so, he said I had offended him. Before leaving I saw my PayPal payment was pending, and left him my email so if there was a problem he could contact me. I said I could resend it no problem. Then he sends me an email threatening to call the police and to have them get a warrant. For a pending payment. The tattoos came out good, but his behavior for this entire experience has been uncalled for and very unprofessional. Do not get tattooed or pierced here.
She paid by PayPal and of course tge money never went through so she is talking allot of negative stuff that is very un true. She should concentrate on paying for a service instead of writing bad review my company has over 25000 reviews we are a high standard company. So she basically stole my money from that I did for her three tattoos little but colored and detailed like she said tge work was amazing. I give her no stars as a customer she don’t pay her bill sad how people are in today’s world. Scum!!!!!
Fantastic experience: jimmie was fantastic!!!! he just did my belly button and he made it such a great experience! excellent customer service, friendly staff, and great service. 10/10 will be going back!
Fantastic experience: I got my belly button pierced by Jimmie East I was scared at first bc he was a bit intimidating but he everything went smoothly and he was nice he even called me sweetie or honey I forgot ngl (he’s old and I’m 18 so it was like chill not weird uk lol ) if I had another belly button I’d do it with him again lol
Fantastic experience: Alec is an amazing artist and very professional, would def go back to him and I’m not even from New York! He did 2 small tattoos and free handed the second and the line work is pristine. Highly recommend him!
Fantastic experience: Jimmy got us in right away. My husband and I both got a small tattoo and he was quick and did an awesome job. We were from out of town, and he was very hospitable and gave us an awesome experience we won’t forget!
Fantastic experience: Can’t say enough good things about this place. Jimmy East is a fantastic artist and all it took was a phone call. Got me in, and we collaborated on what I wanted to do. He’s not afraid to speak his mind and make suggestions but always reinforces that it is the costumers tattoo. Had me in a chair in less than an hour and stayed late to finish a 6 hour piece. Doesn’t rush to get out early, very hospitable and explains how and what he’s doing with each step of the process. Jimmy East at East Coast Ink is a fantastic artist, I just wouldn’t let him meet my grandmother. - Lenny Kravitz
Fantastic experience: Great service!! Got a bellybutton piercing and was in and out within 20 minutes without an appointment. Jimmie is super nice and made the experience very enjoyable! Would totally recommend!!
Fantastic experience: Got my nose and helix pierced! Jimmie did an amazing job. Love my piercing. Will definitely be back when I’m ready to add to my collection ☺️
Fantastic experience: Alec is really good at what he does. I asked for two small tigers on the inside of my bicep that he did perfectly. There’s so much detail in both, even being a small tattoo. The studio is clean and all the people are friendly. It was also reasonably priced. I highly recommend Alec for your next tattoo!
Fantastic experience: i got my navel done and he gave me a free ear piercing as well. very professional and the owner is a very cool guy! prices are very reasonable as well. 10/10!!!
Fantastic experience: Took my teen-aged daughter here to get her eyebrow pierced. The establishment was clean, and Jimmy was polite, outgoing and knows how to communicate with the young folks! Looking forward to going back to get some work done on myself!
Fantastic experience: I got my nose and belly pierced Saturday March 29th, 2025, and Jimmy was very welcoming and ensured me I was fine, I enjoy coming to East Coast Ink and getting my piercings.
Fantastic experience: Great customer service all through out, my tattoo artist Alec did phenomenal work with my tattoo 10/10 experience im Definitely coming back
Negative experience: Don’t recommend fully. Took my gf there to get cheek piercings don’t and they used the wrong bar for it and she had to get them cut out a couple days later cause it wasn’t able to heal fully. Also pricey for their stuff
Positive experience: Me and my siblings got a tattoo here. The 2 employees there, male and female, were very nice. They did our tattoos well, however the owner is unprofessional. He made comments about my brother’s first tattoo calling it gay, how he acts towards his employees is distasteful and made the experience less enjoyable.
Fantastic experience: I got my septum pierced here today and it was great! It was my first piercing, and Jimmie was so kind. He did an excellent job, and I truly could not be happier with my new piercing.
Fantastic experience: Went in for a walk in piercing and Jimmie was pleasant, quick and efficient! The shop is clean and filled with smiling staff and clients. I enjoyed my experience and will definitely be back!
Fantastic experience: Got ears pierced (1 stud each) was greeted warmly upon arrival, was just looking for options and ended up following through. Made me feel like family very generous offering snacks and beverages 10/10 experience would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Very nice! went with my friend to get tattoos and felt very welcomed! everyone was really nice and the shop is very clean. my artist Lavender did a great job, will definitely be coming back !
Fantastic experience: By far the best place place i have gone for a tattoo! Jimmie is so funny, and personable. He takes him time with your tattoo, and gets to know you as a person. Will be going back for any tattoo or piercings!
Fantastic experience: Just had my belly button done! I came in after being told from another shop- he told my belly button was perfect and took the time to make sure i knew i was in good hands. He was great and explained the after care in detail as well! He made me feel welcome to call and come back if i had any issues.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved my experience at East Coast Ink. Jimmie East did my belly button piercing, which looks perfect, and greeted me as soon as I walked in. Definitely recommend going if you’re in the Buffalo area!
Fantastic experience: Brought my daughter in for a piercing, and I left with four! Jimmie & Kym were the absolute best! Super cool people, very informative, and did a great job with our piercings, couldn't be happier!!
Fantastic experience: i got a tattoo from jimmie today! he was super friendly and made me feel very comfortable in his shop. he made sure i was certain about my design and placement beforehand and he did a great job with it! he also switched out piercings that i got at another shop for me.
Fantastic experience: Jimmie did my belly button piercing tonight. He was so great/ very welcoming- ensured I was in great hands/ very easy to just call and come right in. My piercing looks amazing but afterwards I did pass out ( I should’ve eaten beforehand) - Jimmie and Lavender did such a great job handling the situation and making sure I was safe before I drove home. They were amazing and I will continue to return here. So thankful for them and love my piercing so much!!
Fantastic experience: Had amazing experience yesterday when going to get my nose piercing redone. Very professional and talks you through everything. Ended up showing him a tattoo idea and did it for me on the spot!! Definitely recommend going here and ask for jimmy.
Fantastic experience: I called in to see if they were available to do a nostril piercing and they got me in right away. Jimmie made it very comfortable and it was quick! Not to mention it looks great and he replaced my other nostril ring to match! Highly recommend for your modification needs lol
Fantastic experience: I recently got my belly pierced at East Coast Ink and I couldn't be happier with the experience.

The piercing was done quickly and with minimal discomfort, thanks to their expertise and high-quality equipment. The studio itself was very clean, which is always a top priority for me. Overall, I'm thrilled with my new belly piercing and highly recommend to anyone considering getting one!l What really stood out was the aftercare guidance they provided.

Fantastic experience: Kym is so great! I was nervous and she talked to me the whole time and she made my piercing experience fast and memorable. The shop is very welcoming and has a nice set up. Overall everything was great and I’ll be back again!
Fantastic experience: The shop was very clean and well kept. The atmosphere was chill, relaxed, and just had the best vide. Kym is the sweetest and did an amazing job and even added a very special touch. She talked me through everything, told me what to expect since I haven't had a tat in over 15 yrs, and the experience was amazing. Recommend this shop over any in Buffalo!!!
Fantastic experience: Walked in two weeks ago for a piercing and Kim did a great job! She was very amicable and professional, I had no concerns about cleanliness and she was very friendly. I plan on coming back soon! -Dan Tuthill
Fantastic experience: I lost the ball to my cartilage hoop so I called here to see if they could help me out, and they were very accommodating and reassuring over the phone. I came in and Jimmie took out my original hoop and replaced it with another hoop and it was very quick! He gave me a lot of advice on how to properly clean my piercings, even giving me a sheet with the necessary instructions and products on it. Thanks Jimmie! I’m very happy with the results and I will be back!
Fantastic experience: My friend and I flew into Buffalo for a road trip. We came in the tattoo shop late and she recommended we come in the next day and gave us a few fun spots to spend our night in. Next day we each got a tattoo and we all connected so well with Kim and Lavender. Kim made us feel like we were home and we probably had one of the best experiences at a tattoo shop! Kim did my friends color flower tattoo, Lavender did my dainty line piece. Everything turned out beautifully. Highly recommend! Very clean, clear instructions before, during and after care.
