This was a couple years ago. When I went in to inquire about a tattoo I've been thinking about getting done for my two nieces I wasn't at all welcomed by any of the artists. My friend had just gotten his tattoo done earlier that day and I was really impressed about the detailing. I was asked my ideas while one man was sitting far away so it felt like I was shouting, and when I told (shouted) what I was thinking about he said he wouldn't do it. I was thinking about doing a little tiara or bows for each of the girls, but I was immediately interrupted by that man. He said if he saw me in the middle of the street he would cut me with his knife. That was the most unprofessional interaction I've ever had. I never would have thought I was going to be threatened by a dude who looks like he never showers more than once a month. I felt unsafe, and just completely disappointed. I will never do business with a place who threatens their clients. There is a way to say you can't do a design. You don't tell a client you're going to assault them. Don't ever come here. You'll get the same treatment like I did before, and I don't want anyone ever feeling unsafe.

Got my belly pierced here about 2 years ago by Johnny. He was super nice along with everyone else there. I was so nervous about it but he made it so fast and simple. I am planning on getting my first tattoo at Vanity for sure because I was so pleased with my experience!!

Very clean facility. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I had some ideas of what I wanted but not entirely. John worked with my design until I was beyond happy. You will not regret going to Vanity Tattoo. Nice people and professional work.

I am thrilled with my new tattoo and the touch up on the ribbon. Alex was wonderful and the salon is clean and inviting. This should be a best of the fox winner.

The shop was very clean and the staff were very professional. This was my 5th tattoo, and my favorite so far. Alex was really nice and I was super impressed with my new tattoo. I would absolutely recommend him as an artist, and Vanity Tattoo as a reputable place to get a tattoo.

I love this place. Even though I only got one tattoo at Vanity I have nothing bad to say about this place. Everyone is so nice there but the only thing I had problems with was the after care for a belly piercing. I was told to wash it with regular Dial soap when I take a shower and not to use Seal salt spray. After a year following the after care advice my piercing was not healing right and hurt like a mother and wouldn't stop bleeding. I finally gave up and purchased Sea salt spray and my piercing is now healing the way it should. Other than that I can't complain and would definitely get another tattoo at Vanity.

Nothing bad to say about this place. Johnny and John are awesome. They both have done tattoos on me and both came out amazing. I see a lot of negative comments about this place. Honestly if you have a bad experience just call them and I'm sure they will find a way to fix it. But keep in mind and treat everyone with respect. Not everyone will put up with your childish behavior. After all respect should be given if you expect it in return.

I went in to get a left nostril nose piercing. John did my piercing. The staff was very professional and clean. The place was clean and they did wash their hands a lot. I was in a out in a flash. He gave me after care instructions. I would definitely go back for another piercing.
