Moth & Magpie Tattoo

I highly recommend Aces and Eights for anyone looking to get a quality custom tattoo!

I came in a couple of days ago for a consultation with Jake, and then had my two tattoos done by him yesterday. I'm more than happy with the results. :)

I was extremely nervous (mostly due to social anxiety lol), but he ensured the entire process was as comfortable as possible and helped calm my nerves. I appreciated his professionalism and friendly/positive attitude, and I'm super satisfied with the level of quality and detail of the tattoos I received. Also received clear and specific aftercare instructions, which made me feel more confident about the healing process.

The building itself had a professional, clean atmosphere, and I enjoyed seeing all the cool wall decor in the lobby. The wallpaper in the bathroom is my favorite. Everyone I interacted with there was really welcoming and kind, as well.

I'd love to have more tattoos done here in the future, should I have the opportunity. Thanks for a great experience and a couple of awesome tattoos!

ScottyB did an incredible job on my Arcane Jinx tattoo. Healed up and looking beautiful! I definitely recommend him as an artist. Felt super comfortable and chatted easily. The inside of the shop is absolutely amazing and the other artists were so easy going. Excellent atmosphere and people. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back!

Maggie is the absolute best! She was professional, attentive and wonderful. She listened and was respectful to me and my sister through the whole process. Highly recommend her and this shop! Will be back soon for more fantastic art and wonderful experiences.

I went in for an appointment with Vermillion and there are no words to express how extraordinary his artistry is. I have several tattoos and this one is by far my favorite!! My first visit here was an experience I will never forget and I am looking forward to visiting the shop again soon. The shop is immaculate ❤️. The staff was friendly, professional and the aesthetic of this place is absolutely beautiful. If you’re looking for an amazing tattoo experience this is the place.

Hands down the best place in Augusta for piercings and tattoos. The amount of love these people have for their craft is apparent in what they do and I would never go anywhere else in the area. Billy is an amazing piercer... I honestly feel more comfortable in his chair than a doctor’s 🤣. Everything is clean and everyone is friendly. Billy is the most experienced person in the area so go to him for all your piercing needs and a good time. He takes care in everything that he does and as long as you follow your aftercare instructions, you will never have a problem after seeing him after getting some cool new bling! Definitely go see Jake as well for all your tattoo ideas... the amazing work he comes up with will definitely be worth your while and you will forever have a literal piece of art on your body.

I want to share my experience with Billy because I’m very sad about what has transpired and feel the need to share my experience. I’ve been to Billy before and didn’t have a bad experience. However, 2 weeks ago, I came in with a friend to get my industrial done (and she got her belly button done). During the session, Billy said some unprofessional and very uncomfortable things to her, with me sitting in the room. It concerned me that he may say worse things to other women or make them as uncomfortable when they are alone with him. The piercing itself and the environment were not an issue, but Billy also didn’t give us any aftercare instructions or healing times (thankfully I knew from previous experience how to care for piercings). As the next week went on, the piercing became very aggravated, and I had to start an antibiotic to manage the infection. I also began to do some research and found out that I don’t have the ear anatomy for such a piercing. I am a little concerned that Billy didn’t seem to know/acknowledge that this may be an issue, especially since my ear was very quickly rejecting the piercing as many sources online said it would. I didn’t feel comfortable going back to let Billy check on what was going on, so I went to another local shop. The piercer immediately recognized that the piercing shouldn’t have been done based on my ear anatomy, and they told me that my ear would continue to reject the piercing and never heal. They also pointed out that he is not using the recommended jewelry (internally threaded is recommended but he was using externally threaded jewelry), which caused more damage to my ear when she had to remove the jewelry. My ear felt immediately better having the jewelry out, but I am very sad about the poor experience.

I really like Aces and Eights. I think they’re a really cool shop and have great artists and staff, so it’s very disheartening that I feel so turned off from coming back. I want the best for the business because they seem like nice people. However, Billy seems to not be meeting the professional standards that I was lead to believe he had. He had such good reviews, and that brought me to the shop, but based on what occurred, I don’t want him to pierce me again.

I love this shop. Robert is wonderful and professional. He is very detailed and you definitely get what you pay for with him. The shop is very clean and the atmosphere is great!

This was hands down the best experience I’ve had for it being my first time! I got my nose pierced and the piercer Mr. Billy made me feel so comfortable and was very nice and funny! He is very good at what he does and will make sure you love whatever you get! It didn’t hurt at all and I absolutely love it! I will be returning as soon as I can because I only trust Mr. Billy! Lol prices, atmosphere and professionalism are top tier! Great establishment and experience! 20/10!

I love my new piercing. And Laney is the best. Highly recommend her to anyone who is looking into a new piercing.

Walked in with with four friends and we all got piercings from Billy! I got my nose pierced and he did amazing. I’m in love with it. He made me feel comfortable the second I walked in the room. The shop is super clean and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you Billy!
