Piercing Excellent Service Clean Environment Recommendation

I just did my first piercing and it was a stud in the nose.!! Was super nervous but once I got into the room to get my nose done.. The lady there and I’m really sorry I forgot her name. I am so glad she was the one that did my first piercing.. because she was so calming it made me feel very relaxed.!!
The service was excellent.. everything was clean and showed to me before doing anything.. I totally recommend going there again.!!!

Overpriced Poor Quality Bad Customer Service

So I went here a few years ago and I got a tattoo and at first I thought the tattoo was OK I didn’t think it was a little bit overpriced because it was $100 for some cursive handwriting. But now realizing that the tattoo artist went too deep because the tattoo has not healed correctly. Not to mention they never answer the phone and they always try to rush you off the phone when you’re inquiring about tattoos and prices. Would not recommend going back to them.

Poor Customer Service Unreliable Incompetent

Tried on 3 occasions to get information on pricing on a tattoo that I wanted, first I called on a Friday and was asked to come on the following day to get information from the tattoo artist. Got there the next day and the tattoo artist was busy but the lady upfront gave me a SWAG of 200 bucks but she mentioned to come back the following Saturday to get the tattoo done. So I again called the following Friday and again was reassured that the tattoo artist was going to be there but to come early as it was first come first served. I again did as directed, got there on the time I was asked to, and to my surprise, the tattoo artist decided to call out and the two ladies upfront thought that was hilarious for whatever reason. So I decided to give Visual Expressions in East Hartford a call, i went right over and met the tattoo artist, gave me a solid price, and today I finally got my tattoo done. Go to Visual Expressions, they seem to care more about their business.

fantastic experience friendly staff professional highly recommended

I had a fantastic experience at this shop. Joe, the owner and piercer, was wonderful. He made me feel comfortable immediately. He explained the entire piercing process, including his sterile technique, as well as what I would feel when he actually pierced me. I was quite nervous going in to have it done, but he made me feel quite relaxed, and it was quite easy in the end. The staff there was also very polite and helpful. I would recommend Pelican Tattoo to everyone.

Great Service Knowledgeable Staff

I got my navel pierced here a couple days ago and trust me it’s the best experience getting my body pierced. Shawna was amazing, she really made me felt at ease through the whole experience. She was very informative went through every details with me what to expect and how to clean my piercing. Will be getting more piercings here.

Bad Customer Service Unprofessional Behavior

Had a tattoo done here. The man who did it told me to come back if it needed touching up if I noticed something that needed fixing. I went back about 1-2 weeks later and the tattoo artist was no longer there. I explained to the owner/ management why I was there after spending over $350 and he said there's nothing he could do and told me the guy wasn't there anymore and I might be able to find him in New Britain. Showed him the tattoo and receipt they laughed like it was a joke then said such and such must of did that. I was shocked!
