West Coast Tattoos

Experiencia fantástica: Lambo did my tattoos yesterday and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The whole appointment was quick, smooth, and super professional. He made me feel comfortable the entire time and the placement and detail came out exactly how I wanted. His line work is clean and precise, and you can tell he really knows what he’s doing. If you’re looking for someone talented, efficient, and easy to work with, I definitely recommend booking with him!

Experiencia fantástica: My fiancé and I had a wonderful experience with G! She did my nose piercing and it’s perfect! Then turned around and did my fiancés tattoo! She was so clean, organized, and made sure everything was perfect and what he wanted! Tattoo is so clean and crisp! Lines are perfect. Highly recommend going to see G for any piercings or tattoos!

Experiencia fantástica: Got a piercing by Bruce and he was great. Very personable and interactive. I will going back to him for my next piercing.

Experiencia fantástica: It was a great experience. Great/Clean environment, very nice people. 10/10 would recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Gianna is amazing !!! She did my nip piercing and it’s healing like a champ as well as this tattoo, she’s already my go to piercer and artist!!! <333

Experiencia negativa: I went in for a belly piercing and the piercer who was taking a smoke break and late to it told me i couldn’t get one bc when i sat down my stomach had a roll bc i was in tight pants and she made me do this multiple times, I felt fat shamed and embarrassed. she then told me to not get it ever in my life because she said it would be horrible scarring and said she can show me pictures. I know multiple people of my size or bigger have gotten it and not told no. I went to another piercer right after to get another opinion and they said that they could do it and there wasn’t any problem with how my belly was and i just felt singled out bc I'm african American and not a 40 lb girl.

Experiencia fantástica: Gi was so nice and fast I loved her

Experiencia fantástica: Greyson did my friend groups tattoos! he was super clean, attentive, and kind! worked with me and even added some cute extras stars around my tattoo for free

Experiencia fantástica: Greyson is the best! Been getting tattooed by him around for over a year and a half now! He has done almost all my tattoos! He is so talented and so sweet! Never going anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: Grayson is AMAZING! he is so talented and his tattoos are beyond perfect. he puts a lot of time and effort, and it pays off. i have gotten 4 tattoos from him so far, and will continue to come back to him!

Experiencia fantástica: This is an awesome piercing place and the prices are very reasonable

Experiencia fantástica: Zach did an amazing job on our tattoos! Highly suggest if you’re looking for great professional art work. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Experiencia fantástica: My best friend and I decided on our girls/birthday trip we were going to get another set of matching tattoos. We decided on the shop West coast tattoos, and let’s just say they did not disappoint! The detailed work in each of our tattoos is amazing. Lines are crispy and straight. Zach was the tattoo artist. Not only was he funny and down to earth, he was professional and knowledgeable! 10/10 would definitely recommend. Ask for Zach when you go!

Experiencia fantástica: My best friend and I came to charlotte for a girls weekend. We spontaneously decided we wanted matching tattoos and this place did not disappoint. Zach was amazing! He made us feel super at ease and the appointment was actually fun. Tats came out better than I could have imagined. 10/10 would highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Taylor was amazing! I was so nervous about getting my nose pierced. But she calmed me down and talked me through it!

Experiencia fantástica: Courtney was the bestest ever !!! She did my tat exactly how I wanted it thanks girl !!!

Experiencia negativa: This picture is what’s left of a tattoo that I got last Saturday 4/26/25 and today is 5/2/25. I am mad because I paid $80 for this plus tip. Me and 6 of my friends went and got tattoos from west coast tattoos last Saturday and most of our tattoos are faded or not healing correctly. When we went there the people there were nice and very welcoming. But when we contacted them to let them know the state of our tattoos , they were rude and have yet to respond to the text and pictures we’ve sent (that they told us to send).

Experiencia fantástica: I took my friend here for his bday, Courtney was the one to do the tattoo. I can’t say enough great things about her!! The work was amazing, exactly what he wanted and the pricing was very reasonable. She’s super friendly too, her apprentice is also very kind and fun to talk to!! We’ll definitely be returning

Experiencia fantástica: Emily gave me an awesome experience. Fast, and very neat work. Beautiful person overall. Def recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: My sister and I were coming through town and decided we wanted to get piercings. We called ahead to see if there was an availability, and Jessica was able to see us as soon as we got there. I got my nose and navel pierced and she made it such a quick and painless experience! My sister also got her nose pierced and we both love it! Very pleased over all, definitely recommend Jessica at West Coast Tattoo! We would 100% return!<3

Experiencia fantástica: Emily was absolutely amazing. She got us in short notice and accommodating a large party. Her level artistry is stunning. Great place to go for tattoo

Experiencia fantástica: This is my go too place for all my tattoos now and piercings! Courtney does amazing work! I love Her, everyone is so friendly and make you feel like family. Definitely recommend ❤️

Experiencia fantástica: 5/5 every day off the week! This is my second time coming to Jessica! I came a year and 1/2 ago and she did a wonderful job me and my girlfriend’s Tragus piercings! I couldn’t remember her name but I remembered her vibe and how she took such good care of us! I came back yesterday for my birthday and she hooked me up again! She was very informed on the Tragus piercing and she knew how deep to go. You can tell she’s well educated on her craft!!! She made my piercings feel nearly painless! Kind of felt good in a way! She was so calm and gentle. You can tel she has a great spirit and has absolutely upped my confidence! Definitely coming back for 3 more piercings in a few months! 10/10 would recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place !! I called whilst I was working and asked if I was able to get pierced and told them the time I was available to come in. Jessica the amazing woman who pierced me stayed later for me so I could get my piercings! She was very quick, reassuring and honestly the best piercer I’ve ever had!

Experiencia fantástica: These were my first professional piercings and Jessica did a wonderful job. She made me feel accepted and comfortable after I was struggling with a bit of anxiety. She's efficient, professional, and an absolute joy to be pierced by. I got a little light-headed afterward, which I'm wont to do and she was immensely understanding and accommodating. 10/10 service.

Experiencia fantástica: I had some issues with a previous Naval piercing from a different piercing shop, and Jessica was an absolute lifesaver! She was incredibly supportive and understanding throughout the entire process. Her professionalism and efficiency were top-notch. Once healing was complete (over 1yr later), she completed my re-piercing flawlessly on New Year's Day. Jessica is truly phenomenal – she's skilled, kind, and incredibly responsive. I am so grateful for her expertise and highly recommend her to anyone considering a piercing. THANK YOU, JESSICA; keep being the AWESOME caring person that you are.

Experiencia fantástica: i got my face dermal done here, Jess made me feel very comfortable. She helped keep me calm and relaxed throughout the whole process. I really love my piercing and I 100% recommend you go to her for yours as well!!

Experiencia fantástica: Jessica is a gem! She’s the only person I’ll let pierce me moving forward. She is so patient and kind. You can tell she loves what she does! She’s worth it!

Experiencia fantástica: I always have an incredible expertise when I go there. All my work had been done mostly by Lambo. My hand tattoo was done by Courtney and I also had my naval and nose pierced there as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a really great time there got my nose pierced on both sides Jessica the best piercer super fast and makes you feel so comfortable definitely will be coming back for more !

Experiencia fantástica: Went to get my nose ring and Jessica gave me the best offer, I got so excited by all the variety she had in jewelry, I even got the eyebrow too, Jessica kept talking to me so I wouldn't be nervous, it did not hurt as I thought it would, she was extremely fast, super clean process, experienced, the whole thing was smooth and quick, I definitely recommend Jessica, she's the best piercer!! She even knew which side would look better for me. She's amazing, thank you Mamacita . Will be back soon for my belly.

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place. Jessica takes her time to make sure my piercings are straight. She is always kind and patient. She is the reason I keep coming back for more piercings!

Experiencia fantástica: Had my Harley tattoo done there and it came out great, going back to get another tattoo soon real friendly people and the work they do is awesome, I have to tell you they have some great artists there that can draw up what ever you want,, go check it out for yourself and you will be amazed

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with these folks from the initial phone call, until now, 2 days after. Because JESSICA has reached out to me several times via text to make sure I’m happy, comfortable and that I don’t have any questions. Jessica was incredibly attentive with my requests on my piercing. She was VERY gentle and explained as she worked. She never split her attention to anything but ME. My piercing was one that I have always feared doing and one that could potentially be very problematic if done incorrectly. I do not regret it, and it has not been as difficult or painful as I had expected. I’m so glad I found her. In all honesty I am beyond thrilled with my experience at this shop and especially with Jessica!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Hector is amazing! he has done all of my tattoos and i love them so much!! definitely recommend him!!

Experiencia fantástica: Jessica is a great piercer and a nice person she took really care of my sister for it to be her first time getting dermals will highly recommend her services

Experiencia negativa: i went here recently to get my cartilage and 2nd holes pierced in my ears, and jessica was my piercer and was drugged out on something and FELL ASLEEP ON ME while piercing me. aside from the fact my friend got 2 tattoos in the time span it took her to pierce my ears, jessica nodded out on me and fell asleep on my chest when i was in her chair. eric was also there and was visibly annoyed due to the same reason and expressed that to my friend and i AFTER THE FACT. i’m not sure how this shop is on a day to day basis, but from my experience i would not go back and would not recommend going there to anyone else. super unprofessional & super uncomfortable.

Experiencia fantástica: THE BEST tattoo/ piercing shop I have EVER been to! ERIC was my artist today. He was absolutely AMAZING! He was so kind, caring, and professional! ERIC made me feel so comfortable! I could tell that he has a lot of experience and that he has such a passion for art ! I've had a lot of tattoos in my life and I've never ever had someone do such a perfect job! His conversation was the best, I felt right at home! It was worth the road trip from Ohio If you ever need anything done ERIC is the artist you NEED!!!!! I will always come back here for any of my tattoo/piercing needs!!! I will be referring everyone I know to this shop!!! THANK YOU ERIC T and WEST COAST TATTOOS

Experiencia fantástica: The piercer there is Great, did my eyebrow and nose piercing and also helped me with aftercare on both peircings, I will be going to her for all my other peircings and i would highly recommend her for all peircings.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place my Tattoo artist is the best (BOY) has done alot of my tattoos I have nothing bad to say only good things Thank you BOY you are the best Just got my eyebrow pierced today by Jessica and I didn't feel any pain she was very nice calming me down I have several other piercing this was the very first time it didn't hurt I will definitely be getting my piercing from her she is the best

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming here for a few years. Emily has done every tattoo since I first got here and her work is fantastic. I would recommend you go see her.

Experiencia fantástica: I got three different piercings , snakes eyes , nose and lip . Jessica was more than awesome , the customer service is most certainly 5 star service . ! I also brought a customer and we both was more than satisfying . We was well tooken care of . ! I highly recommend them to anyone . ! I will most definitely be going back . !

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is the best tattoo artist around. Her skills and artistry speaks for itself. The shop was clean and welcoming. Will definitely be booking with Emily again!!

Experiencia fantástica: Tattoos are forever on your body, so you would want the best for your canvas? Right?! Well, the best is here! Some call him the 7th wonder of the world... some call him the modern day Picasso! His name is Boy, and by far, he's the best around! He's a super nice guy who knows his craft. So don't settle for someone who calls their tattoo machine a "tattoo gun". GO VISIT BOY!! He will make your art come alive and you will be proud of your canvas.

Experiencia fantástica: Loved this place !! Destiny did my 2 ears pericings I got gem on one ear . She’s really experienced and I had no pain . Very professional !!

Experiencia fantástica: Jess was my piercer and I think she did an amazing job and I would recommend her to anybody. She’s amazing and she wants to get to know her clients and you can tell that she cares. Thank you, Jess.

Experiencia fantástica: I’d recommend Jessica for any piercing after the experience I had with her. I’ve had 12 piercings and she is by far my favorite piercer. It’s obvious that she has so many years of experience and she’s a likeable person, I felt comfortable during the whole process. Thank you Jessica!!! See you for my next

Experiencia fantástica: Let me start off by saying this is THE BEST tattoo/ piercing shop I have EVER been to! JESS was my piercing artist today. She was absolutely AMAZING! She was so kind, caring, and professional! JESS made me feel so comfortable and confident! I could tell that she has a lot of experience and that she has such a passion for her art and a love for people! I've had a lot of piercings in my life and I've never ever had someone do such a perfect job! Her conversion was the best, put me at ease, and I felt right at home! She also gave me a great deal! If you ever need anything done JESS is the artist you NEED!!!!! I will always come back here for any of my tattoo or piercing needs!!! I will be referring everyone I know to this shop!!! THANK YOU WEST COAST TATTOO

Experiencia fantástica: I have gotten ALLLLL of my tattoos done at Hollywood Ink and I've NEVER been disappointed. Mike and his staff are always professional while doing top quality work. I recommend them to ANYBODY wanting a beautiful, long lasting, expert tattoo.

Experiencia fantástica: Our experiance was amazeing!! Destiny was our piercer today and she was amazeing!! My two girls were nervous going in but destiny eased their mind and made their experiance a great one!! Thank you we will definatley be back!!! Highly recommend!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I got my nipples pierced in December by Destiny. It’s been 3 months since, and I was still in pain. I cleaned, I soaked. Did everything I could find to possibly help. Nothing did! I went back today and was helped by Jess. Not only was she helpful, she was concerned and apologetic about what I was dealing with. I showed her my nipples and immediately she jumped into action. She knew the jewelry had no room to allow swelling which led to them sinking into my skin. Instantly, she grabbed longer barbells, made sure I was comfortable and gently took out the too small barbells. When I tell you I felt no pain when she took them out, cleaned my nipples up and installed longer barbells. She kept conversation with me the entire time to! I recommend that if you get pierced, ONLY go to Jess!!! I’ll never get another piercing from Destiny again. The pain I was in because of her negligence to realize that every nipple is different, I don’t wish on anyone. I gave the 2 stars because of Destiny but Jess brought it back to 5 stars!!

Experiencia fantástica: I came into the shop about 3 days ago and I saw Jessica. I needed 5 piercings that night & Jessica made me super comfortable with each one. I had never been to a tattoo shop to get pierced but she answered all my questions & made sure I understood all my aftercare. I really appreciated that ! I’ll be back for more piercings once these heal ! Thanks again Jessica

Experiencia negativa: There’s a piercer (maybe she’s also a tattoo artist ) but she’s white , blond hair with terrible nails . Went in there , she was unable to put the ball on my septum piercing . She claimed it was her nails . She also gave me the wrong size ring . What makes it even worse was i found Out she over charged me . She charged me 20 . I went Back a few days later for a smaller ring size and the piercer working only charged me 10.00 ! This is the only reason i can Even give 3 stars . I’d never use that other woman again: She also claims she can’t take cash app cus she has to pay the shop out but everyone else takes it . LOL .

Experiencia fantástica: This place is amazing!!! I came in to get my second tattoo done and it came out amazing and while I was there Destiny the piercer helped fix my crooked snake bite piercing. The person who did my piercing originally had one side off center and she re did it for me!! Now my snake bites are perfectly even! 10/10 would highly recommend stopping by for tattoos or piercings

Experiencia fantástica: This place is amazing!! Bructio did a fantastic job!! I had bought a belly piercing from the mall months ago and I’ve been wanting to change it forever so I thought what if I changed it when I’m here and he changed it for me and didn’t even charge me extra which was so nice of him! I love my septum so much!! Totally recommend this place!

Experiencia fantástica: My bf and I got a tattoo here and it was amazing. The service, the tattoo, and the vibes! I forgot the lady name who did ours but she was blonde and also a Gemini. She was soo cool and did amazing! The girl who was practicing her art and showing us her drawings was such a sweetheart as well! Everyone here was amazing and if I ever get another tattoo when I come back to NC I will be going here! Definitely the coolest tattoo shop ever!

Experiencia fantástica: Destiny pierced my daughter nose and made it so comfortable that I didn't even know she finished. I highly recommend for you to pull up. And they are so nice and respectful

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is great, light touch on the tat. Princess did a great job re-piercing my ears. Thanks

Experiencia negativa: This was back in 2019. My ears turned purple and would not stop bleeding. My nose swelled up. And the group I went with all had the same issues. We went back to have it fixed and it didn’t change the second time around. We had to go somewhere else all together

Experiencia fantástica: My piercer was Taylor, I loved her! She made sure that I felt comfortable and she had a welcoming vibe. My piercings by her has healed perfectly and I will definitely book with her again. Her prices are good and she always makes sure to throw out a deal. BOOK TAYLOR!

Experiencia negativa: This owner has serious anger issues. I’ve never in my life seen somebody talk to women the way he spoke to my friends and I today. I’ve seen many comments expressing how this place has a hostile environment. Not only did he curse us out but he called us idiots!!!! This place needs to close down. Rude and unprofessional. I would never spend a dime in there. Skinsations is way more professional and their work is better there anyways! Go anywhere but here!!!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter got her nose pierced, It was fast and painless for her. Also my husband and I got tattoos! We are so in love with them! The customer service was excellent and the place was nice and clean.

Experiencia fantástica: Tyrone did a great job with my tattoo! He placed it exactly where I asked and did the Hebrew writing better than the text I presented to him! Process was fast & I get so much attention from this tattoo and love it so much! I plan to have him do more for me in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: I come regularly to get tattoos from Greyson. The staff is amazing and I love the work that they do! They’ve always been accommodating and easy to talk to and set up appointments. I definitely recommend coming to this place to get a tattoo!

Experiencia fantástica: Okay so I just recently got work done at this establishment and I'm going to give my honest opinion and no I wasn't paid for this opinion. Hollywood 8 on Independence is a very clean establishment everybody was nice and very professional it's a very new tattoo shop it's decorated very nicely in the inside and very cozy and comfortable the receptionist was nice my tattoo artist was awesome friendly engaging and did very nice work on me honestly I can't wait to get my next tattoo I got tattooed by Alana she perform excellent work. If I had to give one complaint and I'm just nitpicking here I think that they should print out instructions on how to care for your tattoo afterwards and give it to every client that gets service no matter if it's a tattoo or piercing. If you are thinking about getting a tattoo please do not hesitate this establishment I have been to a few tattoo shops here in Charlotte and most of them are very loud rude and unprofessional But this establishment is definitely not that please support this tattoo establishment you won't regret it... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐... Shout out to the owner for putting together such a beautiful shop..

Experiencia negativa: Bruce is extremely unprofessional. Have personally known underage people get pierced by him without any form of consent. Also, he puts women down in a HUGE way, he acts as if anything they do is beneath him. I can't believe he's still employed there. I recommend any of my friends looking to get pierced to stay away from this shop solely because of this man!

Experiencia fantástica: Brucito was awesome. Very professional and so kind. He made me feel really comfortable as I got 2 dermals on my lower back. It was affordable too! I finally found a piecer in charlotte. Will most definitely be returning!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place. Went in for the first time to get a small tattoo, and now am working on a sleeve! Tattplug Tyrone is very detail oriented, his style is impeccable, his skills are ferocious. Dude is a beast with the ink. The receptionist Melanie was also very attentive in helping me set future appointments. She was quick to answer any questions i had. 100% recommend.

Experiencia negativa: I mean I don’t know if the girl still works there but me and my sister wanted to get some birthday piercings. I got my second hole on my earlobes pierced and my sister decided on a septum piercing. 1. My earring are not even. 2. My sisters FACE was pierced instead of the “sweet spot” ! Please for the employers make sure all of your piercers are properly trained and certified in all noses ethnic and non ethnic noses and how to pierce correctly, because it is not the same in all noses. If you’re reading this and still decide to go make sure this person has a portfolio and has been trained properly in piercing. And rule of thumb if their piercings look “off” kindly ask for another or leave.

Experiencia negativa: The dude pablo I believe that was his name tangled up my baby hair to her ear then kept twisting it till he noticed it and then cut off a bit of her hair because it was so twisted in. And still he charged 100 to pierce her ears!!! I was so angry I walked out so mad. My poor baby had to cry extra just because he didnt know what he was doing. Reviews on here say this place has best reviews but on yelp they are super low. I would go somewhere else!!

Experiencia fantástica: I got my nose done here last year and I loved it. I brought my son to get his ear done and we had a great experience. The lady was super sweet and pierced my son's ear quickly he didn't even know she had done it. We where only in there for maybe 5 minutes all together. I will always come here for piercings

Experiencia negativa: My friends and I walked in on a Saturday to get a small tattoo. Pablo was extremely nice and personable. However, the rest of the staff was very dismissive and actually very hostile. They say there are rules against going in the back because of COVID but none of the staff had on there mask. Half of the staff was sitting in the back room on there foods when we walked back there and there was obvious hostility between the employees that work there. There is a $50 minimum for arms and legs and a $100 limit for everything else which isn’t advertised in there shop. Only one sign says $50 minute. I would suggest you go to another shop if you are looking for a great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Emily is incredible! She’s the best tattoo artist there hands down! She’s great! All the tats she did for me came out awesome and exactly as I wanted! Absolutely incredible! She pierced my nose and it healed fast and it looks great! The area is kinda sketch, but hey it’s a tattoo parlor what do you expect!

Experiencia fantástica: AJ was able to get my tattoo done last minute on a Friday during lunch time. He was quick, professional, and the tattoo came out great! Will definitely be going back for my next.

Experiencia negativa: I got a tattoo here a few months back in May and I wasn’t going to leave a review but after reading similar stories of the same artist, I thought I should say something. My friend and I decided to get tattoos for my birthday and I suggested this place specifically because of Emily, who is an absolutely amazing artist. However, after arriving, we were told Emily was not working that day so we had a nice, soft spoken Venezuelan woman as our tattoo artist. I began to feel a bit uneasy after being told the price of the two tattoos. Both my friend and I wanted very small, simple tattoos and we were told each one would cost us $200. I should’ve listened to my gut and walked out, but being naive and eager to get a tattoo, I ignored my best judgement and agreed to the price. The female artist was extremely heavy handed and the tattoo definitely hurt more than it should have. But that’s not the reason I’m leaving this review. I’m leaving this review because both my friend and I suffered from awful blowout due to the artist’s heavy hand and/or inexperience with the needle. I’d go as far as to say both because the shading on both of our tattoos was pretty sloppy and uneven. Not only that, but the placement of my tattoo is awful as the outline of it goes right over a freckle of mine and it isn’t very subtle. The tattoo I received also doesn’t look like the photo she was shown. Instead of following the outline of the original photo, the artist decided to put in her own “artistic spin” without first notifying me. So now I have a moon that looks too much like the letter “C” and a crooked star that looks nothing like a star, and is faded on the ends. Its so sloppy it honestly looks like the artist just gave up halfway through. I’m now looking into getting a coverup because the tattoo is honestly quite embarrassing. If you decide to go here, the only artist I recommend is Emily as she is very light handed and does an absolutely AMAZING job.

Experiencia positiva: I went in (walk in) to get nose piercings and not even a few minutes later the piercer came out. Destiny my piercer was very cool, she also made sure to clean the things she would use. It was all really quick and i had a fun experience there!

Experiencia negativa: My artist was AJ , I asked for realistic shading in my leaves and got this awful tattoo … and many of the leaves have shading out of the outline! The shading was jus so awful and two of the leaves that are black was not post to be black ! Nothing about this tattoo looks like what I asked for or showed him HIGHLY DONT RECOMMEND going to have to get laser removal to fix this.

Experiencia fantástica: I suggest calling ahead to request wait time. We did, they weren't busy and had about a 10 minute wait for piercing. Bruce is a gem! Knowledgeable, funny, patient, understanding, personable and most importantly study with his hands! I will definitely be returning for other services and will request Bruceness....he made my day!! I also wanted to add very important, the place was busy (Saturday) clean and on top of the business. They were sterilizing e everything in between however not many people waiting not wearing mask .

Experiencia negativa: My friend and i got our septum’s done, i had gotten the man with long hair, everyone was professional and very cleanly. Ali though i think he did mine too slow as it hurt like a mother, my friend had gotten the women with orange hair, the septum was placed horribly, it’s way too low then what it should be! it’s common knowledge septum’s are placed high up. She did not give a warning if my friends cartilage was crooked or something so she couldn’t place it correctly, looks bad!

Experiencia negativa: 3/28/21 my friends and I decided to commemorate our trip to Charlotte by ending it with a trip to the tattoo parlor. Before heading on the road back to Hartford CT.I looked up a few near by and found this one and they took walk ins. When I first got my tattoo I was pretty excited The lady was a nice Venezuelan women who looked like Mia Khalifa and was excited to be working. I was genuinely happy for her. I liked that her equipment was quieter than your traditional tattoo equipment. She was calm so I felt assured. My tattoo was fairly quick, she took a pic and I moved along for my friend to go next. While she tatted my friend, my tattoo started bleeding a lot (I figured that was normal) she cleaned it we paid her (120 which I thought was fair) we left (I did get a piercing it came out amazing and that's why I gave this place 2 stars) The next day 3/29/21 the "bruise" Formed around and down my forearm and again I though it was normal. It started itching I would lather bacitracin on it (again thought it was normal) then the bumps started forming. I put topical Benadryl on the bumps cleaned it with antibacterial soap and patted it dry to then layer it with bacitracin but solely on the tattoo. On 3/31/21 it was raw it hurt I went to the walk in clinic they gave me antibiotics. My doctor (who is completely tatted) said I got a blow out tattoo meaning the women tattooing me was either heavy-handed or inexperience with the needle. So because of this misuse the ink was inserted deeper into the skin than it should be. Causing the ink to look blurry and smudged on the surface of the skin and bruised around it The only way to fix this tattoo blowout is laser, a cover up or a skin graft. I'm so sad this happened to me and the fact that it looks like I have a jail tattoo on my forearm I really want my money back to put towards a nice quality cover up But people please don't go there After many attempts I was contacted by a lady named Emily who told me that my tattoo was a bruise and that I need to put chapstick on it And that she will contact me by the end of the work with a solution (4/10/2021) ITS BEEN A WEEK ALREADY (4/16/2021)

Experiencia fantástica: Walked in with a friend late in the afternoon and AJ accepted both of us to get tattoo’s and did amazing work. Also amazing prices and love the quality of their work. Would definitely give it a try and I definitely recommend AJ he’s a great artist!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience with my second tattoo Thanks So much for my BEAUTIFUL LADYBUG

Experiencia fantástica: Tyrone did a small crown on my collarbone and it turned out awesome. He was incredibly accommodating and fun to be around. I highly recommend Hollywood Ink and Tyrone for anyone looking for a high quality tattoo!

Experiencia fantástica: Man I so i love you! The group of very talented artists that work here and they are very friendly also. Good prices done by professionals not to mention the place is very clean which is always a plus. I've had 3 done here and work is excellent!!

Experiencia negativa: FIRST of all, when we got there no one addressed us. Got there around 6 and sat there for over an hour and once we finally got helped they tried to charge us 150 for a small finger tattoo. On top of everything else they were very rude. The guy who did piercings was very nice and professional. But overall just wasted my time!!!!

Experiencia negativa: I went and got a small tattoo done on my neck and received great work and great service. I came back to get a touch up to find out my artist had been in a car accident and been severely hurt. I asked the owner could he touch my tattoo up due to the fact his artist couldn’t be there to and touch ups are usually done by the artist for free. He proceeded to say he couldn’t give me what I asked for without me paying full price (50 dollars) because he’s a different artist. My whole thing is if it’s your shop you OWN in the absence of your artist you can’t touch up a tattoo that 4 letters long? Not a whole piece! 4 letters. Really argued me down about it when it would literally take five minutes. When I would’ve tipped half the tattoo price. That’s unprofessional to me and petty and bad business when I’ve came and got multiple tattoos and piercings there. I would NOT recommend this shop for work. I do hope Orlando pulls through and finds somewhere better to work he deserves it.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to get a very detailed piece of work done and Angie did an amazing job and I would very recommend her if you are getting something black done! I will definitely be going back when I want another tattoo done!

Experiencia positiva: My son went in for a tattoo. I wasn't at all excited about it..but what are you going to do? I just know that it looks pretty good and he liked the artist that did it. Its healing, well looks great. I pray its the last, but he's planning for the next one already. I looked them up...I believe its a great place for a tat if you want one.

Experiencia positiva: Great people and great environment. I got 3 piercings here today. I got my left nostril done to match up with my right piercing & I got my industrial done. I like my industrial but will have to get use to it. However my nose piercing is uneven compared to the one I wanted it evenly matched with. I got my piercings done by emma. My industrial has continued to bleed down my ear. I went to my original piercer & the instructions they gave me made more sense that the ones Hollywood Ink gave me. HI told me to to clean my industrial once a day for 2 weeks & i’m really suppose to clean it 5-6 times a day for 6 weeks. I would not recommend going here. Update: It’s been 5 weeks since I got my piercings. Emily the manager really helped with getting my piercings to heal correctly. Would highly recommend going to Emily or any one Emily recommends!!!

Experiencia fantástica: These guys are always the best, got my nips done here a year ago or so and just got my tongue pierced a second time. Emily was the best and super awesome. If I need another piercing she is definitely the go to!

Experiencia negativa: My boyfriend got his septum pierced here, don’t do it -you will regret. It was the guys first time doing a septum and didn’t tell us. We over heard him talking to the lady and she wouldn’t do it so he did, the guy could’ve just told us and we would’ve went elsewhere. The dude pierced his septum in the totally wrong spot and left my boyfriend in awful pain (despite him having a very high pain tolerance). The piercing is not only in the wrong spot but crooked as well. Septum piercings are supposed to be inside the nose so once healed they can be flipped and not noticeable. Septum piercings if don’t correctly are not supposed to hurt at all. Do yourself a favor and do not get pierced here. Friendly staff and short wait time but definitely not worth wasting the money to have to take it out, let it heal, and then pay more money to go and get it pierced correctly.

Experiencia negativa: Very friendly staff with not much waiting time on a walk in, however piercing quality is definitely not the best. My septum is extremely crooked and going directly through the cartilage of my nose, with one hole being closer to the tip of my nose than the other. Hurt like a cartilage piercing instead of the 1/10 pain rating others have given me. Definitely not worth $50
