Experiencia fantástica: Got a septum by Mike. Very nice even though the place was busy. Just got pierced by Saturn. Absolute sweetheart. Very personal. Talked me through my industrial and eyebrow piercing. Talked about pets. :)

Experiencia fantástica: Huge shoutout to Saturn ! What an amazing person who makes you feel calm whenever you’re nervous ! This place is a little far from me but it’s definitely worth the drive. They have a great deal where it’s $20 for cash ! I usually go at night so it’s not busy when I go… I truly recommend this place. Thanks guys !

Experiencia negativa: I had got a cover up tattoo here a while back. The cover up was not that great. The owner seemed a bit racist and arrogant. I came back again to with my daughter so she could get a tattoo. I told her not to go to TAT CAVE for her tattoo. When we walked in, nobody greeted us. We just got some stare and a very cold how can we help you. I don't like this place or the owner. I would never recommend this place no one!!!!

Awwwwwe poor you, you don’t like me….sorry but you’re one of a few…lots love me. Not one bit racist or arrogant but you…..idk, I’d bet a good chunk you are! I remember you, your daughter was warned not to get tattooed on her hand over her knuckles because it wouldn’t stay. You even agreed now you leave a nasty review. Take your business elsewhere.

Experiencia negativa: got pierced by mike today. the piercing itself was quick and the $20 per piercing price is a great deal. however, the customer service felt really cold, i don’t remember being greeted when i walked in, and the piercer seemed uninterested and ready for me to leave. i tried to make conversation and the vibe just wasn’t welcoming. i know everyone has their own stuff going on, but when you’re at work, it matters how you make customers feel. i’d recommend them for the piercing/price, but don’t expect a friendly experience lmao.

Experiencia negativa: Unfortunately, my experience here was disappointing. The customer service was lacking, and I felt that the staff was not very welcoming or helpful. Additionally, I noticed that the facility was quite dirty and did not seem to be complying with health department regulations. From the moment I walked in, there was a negative energy that made the environment uncomfortable.

MEHE Media Publicada en Google 4 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: I haven’t even been here yet, but I called here for different options and how to get things done, reception and the piercer’s were very friendly and telling me how everything would go. Some of these one star ratings are hateful and it’s usually about infections on the piercings. To all the people who work there I’m so sorry people act like this. I haven’t even been there, but I’m noticing that the one star reviews about piercings being infected afterwards are people who are getting these piercings in very high risk spots. And when it’s not a high risk spot Their pictures look like they weren’t taking care of it themselves anyways. Yes, 90% of the piercing is the piercers job and the piercing but 10% they can also turn into 100% afterwards. Is your job taking care of it and people wanna hate Because the pricing is Cheaper(Price not quality) instead of being thankful and probably having a piercer, who knew what they were doing, they picked a spot that usually gets infected and wants to blame it on you guys based on the number. Shameful I’m coming in later this weekend. I hope to see you guys. I’m excited.

Experiencia fantástica: Last year, I got 2 daith piercings (one on each ear.) My piercings healed perfectly with no complications (despite the fact that Daith piercings are known for high risks/difficult healing.) The person who pierced my ears was highly skilled like a surgeon. His name was Saturn. The process to put the daiths in was very fast and clean. I only payed $20 for each piercing which is incredible concidering the quality. Highly reccomend this location for its affordable price, and skilled team. (I included image of the piercings today with new hoops) they both healed the same

Fab Chick Publicada en Google 8 months ago

Experiencia negativa: Came here on the fly, to do some pretty standard piercings (ears and nose) and the employee ("Saturn") who did my piercings seemed uninterested in his work and more interested in getting people in and out if his chair as quickly as possible. Usually when I get piercings or tattoos done at other places I've been to (Jade Dragon and Tattoo Candy), the staff has always been friendly and very attentive to the customer's needs and concerns. Not this guy - he just wanted to collect the cash and get the job done. He never even discussed possible reactions or aftercare (like the other 2 places I've mentioned, have ALWAYS done). In fact, when I asked, he just handed me a card with a QRC code and said "just scan it"...and that was it!!! And now, I'm in the ER because of sudden bleeding from the nose piercing - and I've not touched it once! I am now going thru several reviews as I sit in the ER and discovered that they have a history of customers developing infections after doing business here. It's on me for not taking the time to read the reviews thoroughly. But I URGE ANYONE THINKING ABOUT GETTING BODY ART WORK DONE, TO STEER CLEAR OF THIS PLACE!!!!

Devanny Sánchez Publicada en Google 8 months ago

Experiencia negativa: they literally give you piercings with the side of infections. no wonder the piercings are cheap because they give u infections and i know many ppl who get infections at this place

Will be coming back soon!

Experiencia negativa: **They are cheap for a reason** I came to get my second lobe piercing back in May. I was suspicious at my piercing taking more than 2 months to heal given my other piercings have healed within 2 weeks. I had to get this infection cleaned at another place and spend more on getting jewelry that is actually of good quality. They claim that they pierced me with stainless steel, but given the damage to the jewelry, unusually long healing time, and the rusted jewelry, I have my suspicions. To add to that, the service felt rushed and uncomfortable. My piercer did not leave any room to talk through the placement of my piercing, or pick out a jewelry that I liked. I was hesitant to post this review because I quietly take my business elsewhere if I do not like the service, but the low-quality jewelry and the refusal of a refund when I reached out have convinced me to share my experience so others can practice caution when selecting this place to get a piercing.

THE TAT CAVE
THE TAT CAVE

Thanks but we use 316L surgical stainless steel. Rusty jewelry, lmao…
Good hygiene is a must!!!! Looks of the jewelry & pics you posted, you did a horrible job cleaning & caring for it!

Everyone gets marked & told to look in the mirror for placement so more BS

Correct $20 is basic jewelry, not pick what you want. We offer titanium as an upgrade but that’s it. You want fancy go to the shops that offer it and pay $80+ per piercing. You can and your other shop that told you that you had an infection can say what you want but 95% of the reviews on here say otherwise. Thanks for taking your business elsewhere

Julie Smith Publicada en Google 9 months ago

Experiencia negativa: ******* WORTH THE READ!!!!!!!!!!!! ******** I had a very disappointing experience at this shop. We came in to get a piercing for my 17-year-old sister with me as the legal guardian and all required paperwork fully completed — including a notarized consent form, with the notary’s ID number, signature, and everything done according to Texas state law (where it was originally notarized before we moved to Illinois). The consent is valid until my sister turns 18. However, the staff refused to accept the paperwork because it didn’t have a “textured” notary stamp. That’s not how notarizations are done in Texas everything is handled digitally now, which is completely legal and valid, EVERYWHERE. It felt like they didn’t even want to listen or take the time to understand the documentation. We were respectful and followed all the rules they outlined beforehand, yet were still turned away. If your policies go beyond state law, that’s one thing but at least make that clear on your website or when people call in. We left feeling frustrated and dismissed after wasting our time,TWICE. Not a welcoming or accommodating experience at all. Would not recommend. ************ Edit ************ If you’re going to cite Illinois law, at least be accurate. Illinois does allow piercings for minors with a parent or legal guardian present and proper consent. Nowhere in the law does it require a “textured” notary stamp that’s your shop’s personal policy, not the law. A digital Texas document is legally binding everywhere. Thank you. Update your SHOP’S policies :) ********** EDIT 2 LOL ********* Glad to see your professionalism really shines through in your responses. First, you blamed Illinois law. Now it’s “my shop, my rules.” So which is it the law, or your ego? You clearly didn’t know the actual legal requirements, got called out, and now you’re throwing a tantrum over a $20 piercing you claim you “don’t care about” yet you keep responding like it deeply bothers you. Which I see a history of your petty replies. Very unprofessional btw, but hey your shop your rules right If your business and career are so valuable, maybe try acting like it.

THE TAT CAVE
THE TAT CAVE

***worth the response***

Sorry you don’t like the Illinois laws, but we have to abide by them regardless of your liking or not. good luck to you

Edit: i’m glad you know more about the law than I do… frankly, I can care less about your review or your opinion, my shop my rules…. I followed the law like it or not. Your $20 piercing is not worth my business, career or income. Texas will do it for you!

Edit # 2
Again, go somewhere you feel comfortable, I don’t care. I do not trust your digital paperwork therefore you can’t get your minor pierced at my shop. Your $20 is not worth my business or your petty bullshit. Best of luck elsewhere. I don’t to tolerate entitlement.

THE TAT CAVE
THE TAT CAVE

Lmfao. $60 minimum is one one the cheapest in the city first of all. Walk ins are based on what we are doing when you walk in. We don’t hold spots for you unless you leave us a cash deposit which means you then have an appt. We don’t jump when you snap your finger, if we have time, we tattoo, if we don’t then you’ll have to wait your turn. Plenty of places that have nothing to do all day but there is a reason for that. GOOD LUCK! Kidd Joe

Experiencia negativa: The service was quick and easy the piercer was nice too but it cost me in the long run I’ve never had any issues any of my other piercings but the one I got from this place gave me irritation bumps and I went to a different shop to get it checked out and they told me the placement was not good. Luckily I got it fixed in time before it started getting infected. I had 2 irritation bumps within a month that I got it. The quality of the jewelry also made my skin react badly. I would recommend to try it at your own risk it’s cheap but not worth all the hassle.

THE TAT CAVE
THE TAT CAVE

Well of course another shop would tell you it’s bad to win over a customer. We only use 316L surgical stainless steel, not cheap jewelry. Rare for some to have a reaction. We do lots of piercings & 1 out of a couple hundred is not our fault. Sorry you had an issue but nasty reviews don’t help you issue either. Good luck

Experiencia fantástica: George is the best tattoo artist there is! I have an entire sleeve, leg sleeve, and back tatted. I get compliments on the line work and the tattoos daily. I will not let any other artist touch my skin. He has a perfect tattoo pace and depth and will truly steer you in the right direction when thinking about how the tattoos will look as you age. He will not just slap any tattoo on you like most artists, he cares about what his work looks like 10+ years down the road. George is the best!

Lindailey Wilkerson Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia negativa: I got my lip pierced here and it was such a great experience so I came back for a tattoo. That was a nightmare. He played conservative YouTube video about Iran the whole time and went on about Obama and Biden all while having a needle to my leg. On top of all that weird political stuff my tattoo is completely messed up. The lines are uneven and shaky and missing ink in some spots. He didn’t shave the area either which is pretty standard procedure.

Experiencia positiva: Overall good experience, but disappointed with the second visit. First visit my mom, Bf daughter and I went to get a nose piercing together with Mike. He was great, quick, clean and good price. 3 mons later we go to switch out our piercings, my mom was told no charge by Mike. Her and I go and Saturn changes ours no charge but gave him a tip. My bf daughter goes a few days later to do the same thing and is told and charged by Saturn $10… that’s a shitty thing to do not cool.

The interior was also so clean, smelled good, and stylish. I definitely plan to return! Thanks Mike.

Silly goose it takes more than a couple days to get an infection but sorry you had an issue, piercings aren’t for everybody. Instead of placing the blame on us maybe you caused it ‍♂️
Your one piercing out of 1000+ piercings done weekly that have no issues what so ever makes me think how could it be cause it was only $20!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Mike is one of the best piercers I’ve ever had. $20 piercings?! Can’t beat that. Will definitely come back for his gentleness. He was kind & funny. Super quick & no pain. Thanks for re-piercing my doubles Mike!! Girl in the front was nice & funny too. Shop had good vibes.

Experiencia negativa: I got a piercing on my ear today, and after I got home the ball already came off of it. I went to another piercing shop to have them replace the ball, and they told me that the jewelry he used should not have been used for my specific piercing and that I could have complications with it. Disappointed, happy that it was pierced correctly but upset that the wrong jewelry was used.

Wrong jewelry
If the ball wasn’t tight enough we can help you put it on nice and tight! Of course another competitor will tell you it’s all wrong to try to take your business lol.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been coming to the Tat Cave for years and I get all my piercings done by Mike. He’s always great to work with and he’s very entertaining. Anytime any of my friends/family want piercings then I always bring them to the Tat Cave. The piercing prices are a steal. The atmosphere of the shop is great and it’s very clean. Definitely recommend coming here whether you need piercings or tattoos.

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely LOVE this shop especially the piercers. I got my belly piercing done about 2 years ago by Saturn and this year gifted my sister her first piercing, also done by Saturn. Really quick and professional and do not push you to speak if you are not the talker type. I also love the way the owner defends his staff in these reviews Keep it up and don’t let no one talk down your business with fake rumors! *attached is my healed piercing, so glad it was straight but of course everyone’s healing process is different and mine did take more than a couple months to fully heal.

Experiencia fantástica: Anyone who complains about this place has either never been here or is just flat out lying. Been coming here for almost 13 years now. Every single piercing and tattoo was so much better than expected! Saturn and Mike make piercings a very comfortable experience. Kidd Joe and Vinnie have done all my tattoos and I will never go anywhere else.

Experiencia negativa: This is my first tattoo. I walked into the place very nice girl approached me and said that she has to take care of another person before me which was fine I sat down to wait in the meantime while I'm waiting this gentleman if you want to call him that comes down the stairs very aggressively mean and looks at the girl and throws his hands up like what are you doing he has a piece of paper and throws it on the desk right then that was a bad taste in my mouth not a good feeling I felt very intimidated and I told the girl that this was not the first good experience in this place for me so I had to leave. I don't know if he got up on the wrong side of the bed today but he shouldn't be acting like that in front of customers especially new customers or any kind of customers. I'll have to find another tattoo place. im sorry to hear about your loss.

If you knew why you wouldn’t be posting this…. maybe you shouldn’t assume.
Just found out a family member died and it didn’t reflect on you at all but apparently you’re to all you to know and just assume what you want!

Experiencia fantástica: Rarely do I ever leave reviews, however my experience on 10/29/2024 was exceptional. Upon entering, my wife and I were greeted by two gentlemen, shop was clean, organized and professional. The piercing was quick and painless. The price, commensurate with getting a piercing. This is a top-notch place.
