I personally got my double helix done here and the piercer was really nice and professional and the process was very quick and easy and he let me choose the earring I wanted out of what he had. My mom also got her tattoo here and it looks great and Eddy was her tattooer and he's a real nice guy with some fun stories to tell and he does a great job.

Wade was very personable, highly professional and very highly skilled. The price was most reasonable. Everything was discussed up front before the tattoo process began. This was my third tattoo but my first by Wade at Black Orchid. Iβll be back to Wade for my next one! Donβt go anywhere else for YOUR next tattoo!

John did a great job on the tattoos on my calves. The session basically lasted all day but he was so thorough and careful, this is the first time I've gotten work done that didn't require a minor touch up after the tattoo had healed. I'll definitely come back to him and Black Orchid for future body modification work.

We went here for my sister n law to get her smiley! The lady working the front was very friendly which is why they get 2 stars! She advised us that the wait would be about 30 minutes, which was fine! The piercer was attempting to do a septum piercing on another customer, not quite sure what happened but he was not able to finish it, and then we were informed that he wouldnβt be able to do my sister n laws piercing either! They offered a $10 discount for her to come back another day, but seeing as how the piercer doesnβt seem to know what heβs doing, we went elsewhere! We went to Legacy ink tattoo and piercing and TJ was awesome!

Went in for a walk-in piercing, the piercing is fine & sanitation practices were good. The person doing my piercing was quick, almost too quick. My biggest complaint is that they didn't go over aftercare practices AT ALL. When I asked, they simply said that there are pamphlets at the front desk for me to take. I took a pamphlet on my way out & when I looked at it after I got home, found that it's not a pamphlet, it's a single piece of paper with a website link on it. Following the link leads you to an ad on how to use their particular brand of saline spray. No info on how long to leave the starter studs in or how often to clean my new piercings. This is pretty important information and I am really shocked that the piercer would neglect to go over it briefly, even after I asked. Also they gave me surgical steel diamond studs which are fine, but if they have other jewelry options I would have liked to be able to take a look and choose what I want. Overall I'm happy with my new piercings but I wouldn't come back here. I guess if you're going to come here you have to be really assertive & ask specific questions because by default they aren't very friendly or informative.
(FTR I've gotten tattoos before but this is my first time getting a piercing, so I'm familiar with tattoo/piercing shops and how they typically operate.)

Walked in to get piercings, there were 4 people behind front desk 2 with and 2 without mask including the owner not wearing one.
It's a big shop very spaced out. I said I can't wear one for a long time only short period of time because I have medical breathing problem. They refused to help me, I said ok give me one, they didn't have mask for guest.
I understand that It's my problem to not be able to wear it due to breathing issue but seriously if you are enforcing something heavily on me and refuse to get business do yourself a favor and wear one yourself instead of forcing one on me while you are comfortably breathing.
I don't understand why is this still an issue after years common sense is a good thing. Wishing them luck I tried to give them the business since im local but as the owner mentioned there are lots of other places to go!
At the end it's not only about mask it's about how they handle the situation and easily refused business to a local. Good luck guys.

I came here on a recommendation for my first tattoo and came back again for my second.
Wade, the owner and artist who did my tattoo work, is phenomenal. He and his team are professional, yet fun, extremely clean, personable and very knowledgeable about their craft.
During my second tattoo I underestimated my pain tolerance, but Wade kept talking me through it along with the other artists who would come by and encourage me.
I'm extremely proud of the art I now get to wear every day.
If you're wanting your first tattoo, or hundredth, this studio has it all. Definitely worth the drive and the price!
