Fantastic experience: Very great. Very clean. And the people are very nice. 10/10

Stacey Peters Published on Google 3 months ago

Positive experience: clean establishment…: I went in at 3 for a tattoo that I had in mind and was super excited at first after being told that I couldn’t get what I wanted and my cover ups were going to be anywhere from 5-600 I was starting to get aggravated so i waited ,and waited what seemed like forever, as he was super busy and distracted with other things and not really focused that I had been sitting there waiting for such a long time, I was really annoyed and wanted to leave but I waited and finally got onto the table at 7pm I had already paid for my tattoo before hand upon arrival so tha was a little weird as well because why would you make some one pay before they even get tatted… anyway my tattoo came out beautifully and I am happy with it I just wish it didn’t take 4 hours to wait and an hour an a hour and half to do the actual piece. So I give 3 stars just because he tried to make it better with a free shirt but I feel like a discount on price would have been the better option seeing as my experience wasn’t the greatest

Adam Littrell Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience. Gary did a consultation, priced it very reasonably, and did the tattoo a few weeks later via walk in. If was my first one and Gary walked me through every step really well. Would definitely go back!

Ayviana Olsen Published on Google 3 months ago

Lilith Tepes Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Wonderful place the staff and everyone so friendly actually looks like a tattoo shop idk why alot of shops around here don't but this one made me feel at home for sure fits right in with the grunge tattoo aesthetic I'm used to go in and see LJ in West for piercings and stop in and see everyone for tattoos you will leave here happy and over joyed

Sophie Scalf Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this place. It’s very clean, the artists are very patient and will do anything to make sure you get exactly what you want, and the overall service is fantastic. I’ve gotten piercings and tattoos here. Chad is also my favorite tattoo artist here. Always wonderful working with him.

Vatreece Gray Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: We felt welcome from the time we entered both times we went. The first time, my daughter wasn't old enough but we returned because we felt welcomed and comfortable! It's also VERY clean! I'm terrible with names but our piercer was very nice and easy to talk to. She gave us all the information we needed and answered all of our questions!

Desiree D Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I went in for the Friday the 13th special and was honestly blown away. Everyone was very friendly and check in was super smooth. The gentleman at the front chatted with me about my vacation and overall, just a chill vibe while I waited. The piercer, Caitlyn, was super knowledgeable and answered all of my questions about my current piercing choice and ones I plan to get. She is obviously very passionate and educated in piercing and I will recommend her to anyone looking for new hardware. Overall, perfect place to get my little “treat myself” piercings and plan on going back in the future! :)

Bobbie Marstella Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Went in as a walk-in and saw Rogguer. He was absolutely amazing. My tattoo turned out perfectly. I would highly recommend.

Lindsay Fox Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I came in to get a conch piercing and my rook jewelry switched out and Megan was SO great I ended up getting a helix as well.... very professional, very knowledgeable, fast and easy.... I will definitely be coming back as I want to get more piercings as well Megan.... your my new piercer now! Plus I absolutely love the jewelry! Was a great experience

hey its charys Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I got tattooed by Rogguer (@foo_tattoos) a couple times now and I love how they turned out. He’s a super chill dude and a dope tattoo artist. He was also willing to lower the price for my first tattoo which was awesome. Will definitely be booking another appointment.

Ashley Zyss Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This shop is so awesome it really is so unique and the atmosphere is just amazing. The people there are all great too I’ve never felt uncomfortable around any of them at all. I ended up getting one of there Friday the 13 tattoo designs of the little ghost cat and I absolutely loved it! I was tattooed by Chad who was awesome he has a great sense of humor, I love and appreciate his sarcasm it makes the experience that much more fun! I have also been pierced by Caytlin who is super awesome she makes you feel very comfortable and takes her time making sure you’re 100% happy with your decision! The girl Megan who works upfront and is an apprentice, is so adorable and very sweet. she is very knowledgeable and does a great job at explaining her own experiences as well as being a great set of second eyes to make sure your piercings are lined up nicely! Anyone who has left a horrible review I believe just didn’t do a good job communicating with their artist or is way too sensitive to some good humor!

Hannah Ball Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Wes was the best piercer! He had us in and out, walked me through everything. I highly recommend!

Im Done Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Had a horrible experience! I was getting my nipples pierced by this man and he made multiple inappropriate comments to me about his ex wife. While I was leaving he made weird comments to his coworkers about the size and color of my nipples. There are better piercers there that I trust more. This man should not be allowed anywhere near a woman

alexis herron Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Caitlyn did my piercing and it was a very great experience! She gave lots of helpful advice and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone

Autumn Lovelly Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I got a tattoo from Gary today at to the grave tattoo and it was a great experience and it is a beautiful tattoo I would recommend getting your tattoo here

Isabell Smith Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: came in on a spur of the moment idea, and wanted a stacked lobe piercing. cait was there and just about to leave, and stayed late just to pierce me! she took her time and made sure i had everything i needed for comfortable healing. she was so calm and knowledgeable, i definitely plan on returning!

Nick Anderson Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great experience for me and my wife on a short notice walk in, super kind and welcoming and probably have never seen a better looking shop in the 100 that I’ve been to in the United States HONESTLY! thank you Chad or whatever your name is you were awesome and love the naked photos of you on the wall and the banter everyone has there!! Honestly though it was awesome!!

devon poindexter Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Botched my wife’s belly piercing and refused to offer refund. Wanted to redo the whole procedure. People here seem to lack professionalism and understanding. Called owner and was told a list of excuses as to why they don’t issue money back after the piercer clearly didn’t know what he was doing. Come to find out he gets fired shortly afterwards. Hmmm think his name was Koda… Mr. Patrick(owner) was kind of a jerk when I called to ask about my money back for the botched piercing, and really needs to take responsibility for his company’s actions and failures. Will never return and you guys be cautious of them. You know I normally review food but this hasn’t to stop.

nora carmack Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Gary did a great job! I will definitely be back

Gavin Cedergren Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Got a fine line tattoo from Andrew, he did an excellent job and the staff was very kind and conversational. Andrew also followed up with my questions about healing after.

Jessica Williams Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Gary Smith never fails to produce a beautiful piece. I can't even tell you which tattoo is my favorite because he out does himself each time!!!

The Homeis Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently got a tattoo done by Chad. I came in maybe an hour and a half before closing as a walk in and they had me ready to go by 15 minutes. Chad did an amazing job and was cracking jokes the whole time being a really funny guy. You can tell he takes pride is his work and did an amazing job on such a sudden notice. I’d recommend this place to anyone wanting a nice calm atmosphere and friendly people while getting a tattoo done.

Doris Coffey Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: I called to see how much to re-color older tattoos. The clerk said go on the website pick your artist. Not going to mention the artist that works with color. But I sent the pic to Instagram. The artist ask questions for two days on the 4 day of not getting a price or appointment. I responded thanks for your time I will find someone else. Go luck with your business. Glad I didn't pass my money out.

KEVIN ADAMS Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere and attitude of the staff. My wife was there for a few more piercings. She absolutely adores the place. They were very professional and clean

Caitlen Collett Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: I'm very unhappy with my tattoo. Gary did it and I expected it to look realistic and spooky but for $500 I got a black jumbled mess that I'll have to get blacked out because I'm so embarrassed. I do not recommend and I'm never going back

Miya Stewart Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo ever from Mandy and was pretty nervous but she made me feel right at home. Both extremely professional with her work and super friendly! I loved my experience and time there and left with a tattoo I adore! I will absolutely be going back to her when the time comes for my 2nd! ♡

Barby Whittaker Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I would 100% recommend Kyra. Her work is amazing!! I will definitely go back to her in the future. She's the type of artist, that her work and attitude will speak for itself.

Cynthia Patton Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have had multiple great experiences here with Mandy. She helped me feel confident about the placement of my piercing, and has been very friendly and accommodating for several tattoo appointments. I can be somewhat picky, but she has been nothing but professional and kind. Definitely recommend!

Cory Coots Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve gotten both piercing and tattoo services from Mandy. Each time she was very warm and welcoming. She made the process very easy and stress free. Plus her work is amazing. 10/10.

Lindsey Barlowe Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mandy is the sweetest piercer ever. She was very professional, quick, clean,and knowledgeable. She was perfect and everything was exactly how I pictured it. Would recommend to anyone.

Alleina Sidwell Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: all the employees are so nice and friendly, the atmosphere is sooo cool and chic. mandy does my tattoos and piercings & she is by far the best. awesome conversation and amazing artwork! i would recommend this shop to anyone and everyone!

Dawn Christon Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: Went to get 4 piercings in one go. You can walk in with no appointments but there is a chance there are no piercers there at the time and you’ll have to come back later. Piercing itself went very well, Mandy was nice and professional but not very friendly.

Jennifer Scutchfield Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My first tattoo! I was able to walk in and Kyra helped me pick the font I wanted and I was done in less then 20 minutes. Great experience.

Sharon Brumfield Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had two very good experiences here. Love both of my new tattoos. As a very plus sized person with physical limitations I really appreciated how accommodating they were.

Leah Hunt Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had an awesome experience, Kyra (@tear_drop_tattoo) was very nice and did an amazing job. She was professional while also making me feel comfortable throughout the whole process! Highly recommend and will definitely be going back!

Jessica Pape Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Everyone there was amazing! Clyde did such a great job with my tattoos. He did exactly what I was looking for and made perfect suggestions. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you to all the staff for being so accommodating, and to you Clyde! You are super talented and a great person! I will recommend you and this studio to anyone looking for any of the services you offer. Thank you! Jessica Pape

Emily Hollingsworth Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Kyra was able to fit me in for a walk in today and she was amazing. Super friendly and did an amazing job on my little tattoos.

Whitney Rowe Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recently had the privilege of getting a tattoo done by Clyde at To The Grave Tattoo Shop, and I cannot express how thrilled I am with the entire experience. Clyde's talent and dedication to his craft are truly remarkable, making him an artist of unparalleled skill. From the moment I stepped into the shop, I was greeted warmly by the friendly and professional staff. The atmosphere was inviting and had a great balance of creativity and cleanliness, which immediately put me at ease. Clyde's expertise was evident as he patiently listened to my ideas and preferences, ensuring that he fully understood what I envisioned. He provided valuable insights and suggestions, helping me refine my concept into a beautiful piece of art. His attention to detail was astounding, and he meticulously crafted every line and shade with precision. During the tattooing process, Clyde's professionalism and focus were exceptional. He maintained a steady hand and kept me informed about each step, alleviating any concerns I had. His technique was flawless, and the level of comfort he provided throughout the session was outstanding. The final result of Clyde's work left me speechless. The tattoo exceeded my expectations in every way. The lines were incredibly crisp, and the colors were vibrant and perfectly blended. Clyde's ability to bring my idea to life was truly awe-inspiring. Furthermore, the aftercare instructions provided by Clyde were thorough and easy to follow, ensuring the best healing process for my tattoo. He genuinely cared about the long-term outcome and made himself available for any questions or concerns I had post-tattoo. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Clyde at To The Grave Tattoo Shop to anyone looking for a top-notch tattoo artist. His remarkable talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his craft make him a standout in the industry. I will undoubtedly return to Clyde for my future tattoo needs, knowing that I am in the hands of an exceptional artist. Thank you, Clyde, for the incredible experience and the extraordinary art you created on my skin!

John Murley Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Got some great work done by Clyde. He exceeded my expectations and was awesome, would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get a new tattoo! He added his own touch to the design making it much better than what I came up with. Thanks again Clyde and I’ll be back for sure.

Jennifer Thacker Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Clyde was the artist who tattooed me and my friend. He was very professional and kind. Clyde took my vision of a tattoo and made it even better. He is creative and knows his skill well. The environment was clean and sterile. I saw the artist clean up and sterilize their respective environments multiple times throughout session. The place looks fresh and modern but that's not as important as the safety and quality of work. I highly recommend Clyde and would get another tattoo from him. I hope that you find this recommendation helpful.

Jacob Partin Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been using artist Chad Payne for a long time now. He has been nothing, but GREAT to me. I came to him originally with another tattoo that I wanted him to fix and he did a spectacular job. He has been nothing, but professional and hilarious to work with. I now have a full sleeve from him and I am continuing to go to him to start my other tattoo adventures. Chad, I truly thank you for you help and the hospitality towards me.

Camryn Christensen Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: I literally never leave reviews, this is my first one ever but I had to! So me and a friend of mine showed up as a walk in. I was deciding between a couple different designs and I showed the artist (Chad Payne) what I wanted. He proceeded to instantaneously use an upsetting and concerning tone of voice with me. He was impatient and not welcoming in any way. Also wayyy overpriced it. We ended up deciding on one I wanted and Chad completely botched it. He rushed through it and finished super quick. He also used a slur while talking to his coworkers and doing my tattoo. Very rude and cocky artist, not welcoming, seems to not enjoy his job in any capacity, not personable at all. Below is the inspo photo and the tattoo I left with. I'm super upset and not excited about my new tattoo at all.

Emily Fletcher Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Julee was great!! She was so personable and made my friend and I so at ease! She explains every single thing in detail of what she is doing. I decided to walk back in and get another piercing! Great experience!! Definitely will go back and tell all my friends!

Kodoherty64 Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: Shane honored my 200$ down deposit that I payed to the grave. As a personal loss to hisself the shop received my 200$ while no service. Took my money with no response back.

Jennatria Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Got my industrial and my chest pierced. I have to say many wonderful things about Julee, from the amazing sense of humor she has, the comfort and ease in which she handled my anxiety of getting the literal most painful piercing possible, and the educating that she took the time to give me about getting my chest pierced. She told me how piercers should & should not handle these piercings, which i believe is very important considering the location of them. She made me laugh, I felt at home with her, & I will absolutely go back as soon as I can when I can figure out what else to get pierced lol. & Julee, if you’re reading, i’m the girl that kept mentioning Gordon Ramsey. She is truly talented as well as wonderful overall. Everyone who i spoke to there was kind, amazing, and very easy to talk to.

Nakoa Williams-York Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went to Kyra for a matching Scream tattoo with my friend and our experience was great! She made sure her design was exactly what we wanted and was very nice. Great experience and great tattoos!

Crystal Carlson Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got double nose piercings done by Christina. I originally had an existing hole done, and she took the time to listen to what I wanted. From there it was determined it was best to start fresh with the double piercings based on what I want to wear in the future. I am also from out of state. With that I felt she took the extra time to make sure I was pleased with everything before I left the shop. She made it as painless as possible. I wish I could make this shop my home base! If I’m ever in the area again, I will definitely be back!

Mindy Ashford Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: My son got his first tattoo here. It was a simple semi colon that represents something very meaningful and personal to him. He was charged a minimum, which I respect, however the end result turned out crooked and my son eventually had another artist at Tattoo Charlie's fix it. She drew a grid on his arm to make sure it was aligned perfectly.

Cadha McKean Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: Not worth your time. Went to get the cartilage on my ear pierced. The individual who I had a conversation with was extremely rude. After they stated they could do it they all went to the back and I waited for over an hour. Had another person with me wanting a piercing and they also treated them rude as well. Do better with greeting customers and giving out prices and info.

Payton Čada Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: The owner could of told me at any point in the ten minutes of the entire shop making fun of me that they weren't going to tattoo what I wanted because it was upside-down to the ground. Instead they let the artist put the stencil on me and when she came back after it was dry the owner said he wasn't going to let her do the tattoo bc it would make the shop look bad.

Katelyn M Mitchell Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My artist was Gary and this was my first tattoo. He was very professional and was very reassuring once he started because I am not a fan of needles. Also helped me get over my fear too! I also love the fact he took the time to draw out the design which was butterflies and it looked amazing! I teared up after tHe tattoo was finished because he made more than a beautiful piece of art he help bring a apart of my grandmother back to me spiritually because she loved butterflies and I lost her last year. I’m already recommending a few people Ik to this tattoo parlor and my fiancé might get one in a year or two

Tammy Mitchell Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Gary is the absolute best! My daughter recommended him and he did such a wonderful job with my elephant tattoo!!! I love it!!

Jordan Martindale Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: I booked an appointment with Shane. He had me come in for a consultation and he would barely pay attention to me cause he was busy tattooing someone else. This was a scheduled consultation by him so you would think he would give you undivided attention when it’s comes to something permanent on your body as should any artist. I came in and the tattoo took double the time he said it would and shouldn’t have with what I got (trust me I know). He also missed spots on my tattoo and went too deep and now my tattoo is raised and sensitive at times. Recommend someone else.

Kenneth Hagan Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: Decent place. Staff didn’t seem to enjoy conversing with the customers haha. They didn’t give any info on how to properly take care of a new tattoo which didn’t impress me. Good thing it wasn’t my first one so I knew what to do. Wouldn’t go back because the price wasn’t worth the work

David Young Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got pierced by Julee in September. She was really professional and clean and made me feel at ease. Would absolutely recommend.

Cynthia Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got my nose piercing about a month ago done by Julee. It was a very good experience. I got it done for my 16th birthday and Julee made me feel very safe and explained the process the entire time. The place is very clean and well decorated with beautiful and interesting pieces of taxidermy. Kid of like walking through the Adam’s family house. Will for sure be back for the rest of my piercings. And will recommend to everyone.

Kendra McBrayer Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Julee is AMAZING! She was so sweet and I'm IN LOVE with my nose piercing! Highly recommend!

Tim s Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Got my ears pierced with Julee today. She was very helpful and professional. Will definitely be going back for future piercings.

Gage Poe Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got my lobes pierced here for my 16th, and was really nervous. However the vibe of the people who work there helped calm me. My piercer Julee was especially helpful in calming my nerves. 10/10 highly recommend for beginners or experienced people's.

Victoria Johnson Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Omg! I have nothing but good things to say about this place! I got my septum pierced by Cristina Warnest and let me tell you…it was an amazing experience! Quick and painless and so professional! Thank you all so much for the amazing experience! I will definitely be back!!

Doug Ruehrwein Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: To The Grave has been great for all of our piercing needs. Walk in availability, friendly staff. Takes cleanliness and safety very seriously.

Mackenzie Whittamore Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mandy did an amazing job on my nose piercing. Made me feel at ease. Very fast process. Will definitely recommend her

Olivia perdue Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely will be coming back to this place!! Not only because of its beautiful aesthetic but also because of my amazing piercer Julee Allen. I’m afraid of needles but love piercings and I always get nervous but Julee did a wonderful job at keeping my nerves at bay. :)

Donna Spradlin Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Julee is the best! She pierced my nose and made me feel so at ease! The environment was fun and very comfortable. This is definitely where I’ll go for other work.

Lauren Moody Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Julee was amazing! Such a doll and the piercing I got done was very quick with very little pain. That place is extremely clean as well. I will be returning for all of my piercing and tattoo needs!

Kristy Hall Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Julee is absolutely amazing and her personality is so awesome! I was nervous about my nose piercing and she assured me everything would be okay! I don't think that I could have chosen a better place to have my nose pierced! I will most definitely be going back really soon

Aseme ! Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: The experience was fantastic the artists and funny there like a close family. Fantastic service, I drew my tattoo so from and artist point of view its fantastic to find another artist that's willing to work with another artist ideas.

Jenna Rogers Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went yesterday for my first piercing since I got my ears done at 12. Mandy was so calm and kind and talked me through exactly what she was going to do! The shop was clean (it smelled like antiseptic) and had a chill vibe. Thank you for a great experience!

Donna Hopper Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Wonderful place!! The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable!! I was a little nervous about my piercing, but the ladies put me at ease right away!! Was a great experience!! Definitely recommend

Rebekah Haywood Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Jules was amazing! She was very friendly and explained every step of the process to me while she pierced my nose. Ten out of ten, would recommend!

Cierra Shaeffer Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: Went in to get 4 letters on my finger and they told me they could only do 3. Didn’t make sense to me, if you’re a tattoo artist why can’t you do different fonts or more then 3 letters. Never in my life have I had an artist tell me they can’t tattoo a four letter name. I have a 9 letter word on my other finger that another artist didn’t create excuses for. It says BEAUtiful. They spent to much money decorating the shop and not into quality artist. Waste of time!

John Nunn Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to see George for nearly 2 years and I couldn’t be happier with the work I’ve received in that time. My wife and myself are constantly being stopped and asked by strangers who did our work and we are proud to say George. Not only does he do stellar work but he also goes above and beyond to keep his customers happy

Jami Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I chose to go to Micah for piercings after a good review from a friend and she was amazing! She answered all of my questions fully and walked me through the process step by step to ease nerves. I will definitely be going back and recommending her to friends.

Allyson Jessie Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went to To The Grave to get a piercing. Micah did my piercing and was amazing. She was so professional and made me feel very comfortable. I was extremely nervous, but she worked quickly and made it as easy as she could. I definitely recommend her and would definitely get pierced by her again.

Morgan Freebody Published on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Kyra was amazing. She made sure I was comfortable and relaxed. I love the way my tattoo came out and highly recommend her. She was upfront and honest. We discussed color options and told me how to preserve the color for it to last long opposed to other tattoo artists at other locations who would have just said no to my color choices. I will definitely go back to her.

Emily Brubaker Published on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always a great experience!! I have had 4 tattoos done here and they all look amazing! I do not mind the prices since the work done always comes out amazing. Will definitely have this as my regular go-to shop!

Fantastic experience: Cool shop with super professional staff. Both of my teens have had piercings done there and each time we had a great experience and outcome. 10/10 recommend!

Brandon Reed Published on Google 4 years ago

Negative experience: Wouldn’t recommend. Got a small, symbol tattooed on my forearm and they completely overdid it. Gonna take weeks to heal now and won’t end up looking like it should. Pretty much could’ve sliced my arm with a knife with how deep they went into my arm.

Jordan Gravatt Published on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been getting tattooed for a long time now and have never seen a shop as awesome as this. Great people, great artists and very friendly atmosphere. I brought my daughter to get her first one here and we’ll definitely be coming back for more.

Fantastic experience: Came in as a walk-in. Gary did an amazing job on my first tattoo! He was very friendly and patient and was able to do exactly what I was looking for.

Positive experience: I had mostly a good experience here. My daughter wanted her ears pierced for her 7th birthday. I called around a lot of places and this was the first place that could do it (she was anxious to get it done and TTGTC was able to schedule same day). Her piercer Mandy was awesome and sweet, very careful to make sure both sides were even and talk to her about what was going on for each step. She was patient and knowledgeable with my questions, too - making sure they used proper sterilization procedures, etc. There was no bleeding and is almost no redness or swelling the next day. I have no complaints at all about the piercing itself. Here are the things I wish were different and why I docked one star: 1. Jewelry. I was not thrilled with the jewelry choices. The free jewelry options were all very simple steel balls with butterfly backs. I was expecting a flat or locking back since these have to stay in so long. Even the options that cost extra were not that great. I've seen better quality jewelry and more options at most other places. 2. Aftercare supplies. Namely, they were not included. I've had a number of piercings myself and they've always given some sort of wound wash or saline. They did have some I could have bought. 3. Notary. This is a tiny nit, but it's pretty easy to become a notary. Since all minors must have a notarized form, it would be nice if the receptionist could notarize rather than me having to go to the UPS store. 4. Price. With tip I paid $100 for earlobe piercings that took about 10 minutes. I know that good piercing places must charge a lot, they have disposable implements and an autoclave, etc, and I'll pay for quality, but between the jewelry, having to go buy aftercare supplies, and having to pay a notary, it seems overpriced and was more than all but one of the other places I called. Soapbox time: I'm a strong proponent of taking girls to professional piercing places that use needles, not piercing guns. I try to convince everyone I know. But when Claire's and the mall pierce for free with the purchase of a pair of earrings, it's a hard sell. A great step to making professional-ear-piercing-not-guns more popular would be to close the gap as much as possible. Anyway, the piercer herself is the important part and that was great, but imo 5 stars is for businesses that go the extra mile. Had they used better jewelry and thrown in aftercare, 5 stars even at that price. Had they charged less, expecting me to buy aftercare and bring my own jewelry if I wanted more than butterfly backs, 5 stars. The overall combination, however, left me feeling it could have been better. (Something to note for parents of young kids: the decor is somewhat macabre. The logo includes a coffin, there are taxidermied animals, tribal-type masks, and a variety of skulls (including human). This did not bother my daughter in the least, she was actually psyched about the human skull, but if you are bringing young kids who are frightened by things like that, might want to prep them.)

Fantastic experience: Mandy did an amazing job! I came in to get my nostril pierced and after having one side done already Mandy was very conscious to make sure they were symmetrical. Very clean and professional! 10/10 recommend!

Fantastic experience: Cristina is amazing at what she does! She done two piercings for me yesterday. The amount of time it took to measure where I wanted pierced & to actually pierce me was phenomenal. We talked all through the piercing process because I was nervous & talking helped. I’m beyond satisfied! This is now my new place for any piercing in the future.

Negative experience: I called in to see if they took walk-ins. They said yes, come in. I went in, and they said we only take appointments and got dismissed. I called in a few weeks later to make an appointment, and I was told we only take walk-ins. Thank you for all your help. Well done 10 out of 10.

Negative experience: I thought it was cool at first staff was really nice, but then I went into the piercers room. I got a naval piercing it looked a little crooked but i just assumed it was me and i was over thinking. Then i start staring at it and she didn’t pierce the naval right at all she pierced above it.

Fantastic experience: Kyra is the best! This was my first tattoo and she made the experience one that I will brag on to my friends. She is professional, very thorough, and asked questions to make sure I got what I wanted. Can't say enough good things about her and her work. She made the drawing that my husband did come alive in a tattoo!
