Fantastic experience: I am 60 years young. I decided to get my nose re-pierced and get snake eyes in my tongue. Something to cross off my bucket list. I got there and Nuke did my piercings and was very professional and took her time. I am very pleased with the service I received. I don’t know what happened but my snake eyes came out and I was only minutes away . I went there and she was very courteous (I interrupted her lunch. I felt so bad) she told me not to worry about interrupting her lunch. She had it back in my tongue in no time. She said these things happen. I will go back for another piercing soon.

Fantastic experience: My friends and I came to visit some friends all the way from New York. We had the bright idea to get some small tattoos out of the blue. After calling a few closer places we found no one was able to do it. We called this shop and we’re told to come down pretty quickly. Gary greeted us and he was a dope dude. Very personable and explained safety and all that. I was personally tattooed by Matt who was very patient even though my skin wasn’t the easiest to hold the ink. It was an awesome, quick, and convenient experience. If you ever in the area or live by there I’d highly recommend heading here.
