Review of Evil by the Needle Custom Tattoo and Piercing Studio

Evil by the Needle Custom Tattoo and Piercing Studio:

Evil by the Needle Custom Tattoo and Piercing Studio is a local business located at 1500 S Walnut St, Bloomington, IN 47401. The studio offers a range of services including tattoos, body piercings, and ear piercings. The studio has a team of professional and knowledgeable staff who are always willing to help their clients. They have a wide range of beautiful jewelry options to choose from.

The studio has received mixed reviews from customers. Some customers have had a positive experience with the studio, praising the staff for their professionalism and the cleanliness of the studio. One customer said, "Sarah did an amazing job! She was very professional and my piercings only took 5 minutes or so. Will be going back again soon to get some more piercings and maybe tattoos!"

However, some customers have had negative experiences with the studio. One customer complained about the piercing process, saying, "Jamie Rio did my septum piercing two days ago. She did not use clamps, a countdown, or otherwise warn me before piercing me. Septum piercings aren't supposed to hurt the way mine did, and I knew it. It was a solid 7/10 on pain."

The studio's prices are on the higher side, with a piercing costing $25 and the cheapest threadless stud costing $20. The studio urges customers to make an appointment online, which is highly convenient. However, some customers have complained about the studio's misleading information regarding COVID-19 protocols. One customer said, "The website urges you to make an appointment online and tells you that you need to wear a mask and provide a vaccine card upon entering. When I arrived, no one was wearing masks and no one asked to see my card, which was fine, just misleading."

Overall, Evil by the Needle Custom Tattoo and Piercing Studio is a good option for those looking for tattoos and piercings. However, customers should be aware of the mixed reviews and the higher prices.

Professional Wonderful Experience Happy Planning to Return

Kasey is incredibly nice, professional, and made my first tattoo a wonderful experience. I'm so happy with how my tattoo came out, and I'm planning on returning to get more tattoos done in the future!

professional high quality jewelry knowledgeable honest friendly staff

Jamie is an amazing piercer!!! Their shop is clean and she is professional. She only buys high quality jewelry and is packed full of knowledge on which piercing would work well with you. She has helped find which piercings work well with my anatomy and was honest with me. I always want that in a piercer and she is top notch. I’ve been going here for years and all of the staff are totally rad! I absolutely love this place and will let her pierce my whole canvas until I look like Pinhead 😊

Bad Experience Unprepared Unprofessional Poor Quality

I had a tattoo done here around 5 years ago and it was so traumatic. I had sent the guy there a picture of lavender a month in advance and when I showed up he was not prepared. He couldn’t find the photo I had sent. When he did, he decided to free draw on my wrist. He seemed to be speeding on something, because he turned away and then got supplies and came back…looked at my wrist he had drawn on and asked if I already had ink. I laughed, but he was serious. So, he started tattooing only to realize that he hadn’t put a needle in the gun. I should have left, but I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect, because I trusted him. I was so upset about the whole experience. In the last year, I was able to get it covered up. If you feel uncomfortable, trust your gut. All I know was at that time it was a man who was running the shop with his wife.

Professional Clean Facility Knowledgeable Recommendation

Edit: For those who are getting body piercings I would recommend Jamie! I got a belly button ring done here (not by Jamie) and the jewelry put in it was way too big and it was constantly putting pressure on it and causing infection. When I returned to ask about it, someone took one look and told me it was rejecting and to leave it alone. I come back about a week later and Jamie I believe it was put a much smaller piece of jewelry in it and I can already feel the difference! While my piercing was originally straight, it has healed a bit crooked due to the large jewelry that was put in it by the piercer constantly pushing it out and to the side (I did not change the jewelry) It has been about 7 months since i got this piercing and now is the best it has felt due to Jamie, extremely knowlageable and knew what the problem was immediately and was willing to help. Major recommendation to Jamie, in my experience Sarah does great ear piercings but if youre going for body jewelry I cannot recommend jamie enough! Lovely experience! My piercer was Sarah and she was great! Very professional, but also clean facility! I got a helix and my boyfriend got his lobes done, his first piercing. She was very professional and made him feel very comfortable! Both piercings were placed well and are healing great. She got both of us in even though there was some confusion with the appointment booking. The jewelry is beautiful and I will definitely be returning for piercings in the future!

Professional Highly Recommend Excellent Service

I got my 2nds re-pierced and my helix done the other day. The piercer was incredibly nice and easy to talk too (which helped because I was very nervous.) She did an amazing job fixing the mistakes of my last piercer and working with the thick scar tissue I had. She also gave excellent tips on caring for my piercings. Very professional and highly recommend!!

Great Customer Service Professional Clean Comfortable Quick Piercing Amazing Tattoo Permanent Tattoo Artist Permanent Piercer

I enjoyed my experience here at evil by the needle. I've gotten two piercings and two tattoos so far and more to come. They customer service was out standing, professional, and clean . Jon was my Tattoo artist and made me feel comfortable every step of the way also did a amazing job on every piece he did on me. I recommend him to anyone and far as my piercing I love the fact of how quick Jamie was in how she as well made me comfortable and distracted me from the pain which was great for me. I'll be going back for both tattoos and piercing. I found me a permanent tattoo artist and piercer and I'm so happy with their work

Fair Price Helpful Artist Digital Mockups Recommend Will Return

My partner and I came here to get a multiple tattoos done and have always felt like weve been charged a fair price! I particularly appreciate the process our artist went through helping brainstorm our tattoo ideas. Our artist was able to provide digital mockups as well to support our choices. Would recommend, and will definitely be coming back.
