My daughter and I have been wanting to get tattoos to honor her dad after he passed away. After lots of research, we found Jamie and traveled 3 hours to work with him. What a great decision! The shop was super clean and very cool. Jamie helped us tweak our ideas until it was just right and we couldn’t be happier. He even got my husband’s fingerprints embedded in my butterfly 🦋. Highly recommend!

This is the place to go to if you want a tattoo or any piercings. Chris does all of my kids and my tattoos and Amy is the best piercer I have ever met.

I’ve been sitting on this one for a few days debating on whether or not to leave this review. I wasn’t going to but something in me keeps telling me to. I got my tragus pierced on 10/28. I had went back and forth, texting the piercer, about coming in. I had an appointment scheduled for Friday at 5:30. The morning of I texted her to let her know that my husband wanted to come with me and he wasn’t able to that day, so we tried to work something else out where he could be there. The only times she was really available was before 5 during the week and I work typical 8-5 hours, so that wouldn’t work for me. I ended up going that evening and had asked me to be there as close to 5 as possible, I informed her it would be about 5:15-5:20 when I would get there as I was coming straight from work. I ended up getting there about 5:12. She didn’t end up getting to the shop until almost 6 (I assumed she would already be there). Fast forward to Tuesday 11/1. It was really sore and kinda felt like I had swimmers ear, where my jaw was hurting and the pain was radiating to other parts of my ear. I had been doing the advised care plus spraying with a saline solution (which was not on her paper apparently.) I texted her Tuesday morning asking if that pain was normal and that I had been using the solution she had a recipe for. She said “what solution” like…you don’t know what you’re telling your clients to do after you put a needle through a part of their body?! Then she asked if I was using a spray or what; I told her I had been doing the advised way plus spraying. She then said “yea it doesn’t say anywhere on there to use as a spray… if you don’t put pressure on it and around it every soak it won’t heal”, which in itself is weird because every piercing I’ve ever had they tell you to mess with it as little as possible to lessen irritation. Moving on, the conversation continues and I told her I’d keep her updated. Later the same day I had been researching aftercare tips and I saw several websites suggesting h2ocean spray, which I have used for every other piercing I’ve had. So, I asked her if I could use that she said “ Absolutely not.. that’s exactly what that is when you boil it.. except you would be. Paying for it or already paid for it. I said you can’t use sprays only soaks.. are you not understanding what I mean when I say you have to use the soaks or it won’t heal”. The last two lines really upset me. Because that sounds like you think I’m stupid. I did not respond to her after that. I’m just putting this out there for others considering going here for piercing, you might want to go somewhere else, unless you like being felt like you’re an idiot for asking a question. And, I have been using h2ocean on my piercing and it feels much better. I just don’t think making your own solution is very sanitary, yeah it’s a good thought on saving money, but it’s not sterile even if you boil the water. So, just food for thought.

Amy is beyond words amazing both at her job and as a person. She has done my lip piercing and my septum and they were both perfect!! I wouldn't go to anyone else!! She's so down to earth and really works hard to make sure she gives her clients exactly what they are asking for. Like I said, I can't say enough but I will end it here!

Just wow! What a great experience, start to finish! Not only did I myself get work, but so did my wife (her first one!) And my 2 adult girls! They're regulars, we were visiting from out of state. The shop is a sight to see in itself! Chris is top notch, truly "AMAZING"!!! Not just a great artist, but a professional! Very impressed at how he made my wife comfortable in her first experience with tattooing. The man basically marathon tattooed us lol. Yet he made us feel welcome and appreciated the whole time! Side note... if you're a horror flick fan, you'll have something in common! We WILL be returning for sure!
