I received two tattoos around 3 years ago and I have to say the experience to the tattoos were fabulous. I will definitely go back for my piercing.

Everyone is super easy to talk to and will gladly answer any questions you have with no judgement. I got a bee done by Eric to cover up a lame stick and poke and scars I had on my wrist. Super painless and came out nicely. My boyfriend got a bridge piercing done by Shon and was very knowledgeable, explaining how he pierces, techniques, etc. Conversations are v easy to have too. Got my cartilage done by him too. (I’m there too much lol).

Staff was awesome. I got 1 nostril and 1 eyebrow, I was in and out. It actually took longer to fill out the paperwork. I definitely recommend and I will be going back for more.

Excellent from start to finish! Tina did exactly what I wanted and it was a pleasure to spend the day with her and the wonderful people that work there. The shop is super clean and comfortable. Highly recommended!

Amazing artists all around, and a wonderful atmosphere! Summer Long is the most amazing artist I've been to yet, and I'll remain with her for the long haul! Her line detail is fantastic and her free hand and attention to detail is amazing! If you're looking for a reputable artist go here! You will not be disappointed!

I have 8 tattoos from Poppycock, my artist was Eric. Professional, friendly and beautiful work. Very reasonable prices. The place to go. Got an ear piercing today, practically painless, looks pretty hip in my old lady ear. This is the place to go.

I got my first tattoo last week with Eric and am so happy with it! It looks beautiful and was exactly what I wanted. Besides that, Tina was incredibly patient when I had to reschedule from an earlier date and found me a new appointment with Eric quickly. I highly recommend Poppycock and can't wait to go back and get another!

Awesome place with awesome, incredibly unique staff. Eric worked with the image I had in mind, was incredibly sanitary, took pride in his work, and did a great job at applying a new tattoo and touching up a tattoo from a different artist. He was also friendly, made sure I understood the process and what to expect, and I look forward to working with him to develop my next ink. Pricing was fair - they will not gouge you like I have seen at other area shops. 10/10 would recommend for any ink work.

Got a bug tattoo from Tina at least 3 years ago and still looks just as good as the day I got it. You want good long-lasting quality, Poppycock is the place to go.

Great shop! Tina has been great to work with over the last year. Very responsive, creative and easy to work with. Everyone in the shop makes it a comfortable, welcoming not intimidating place to be. Look forward to going back soon. They're all pretty funny too.
