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.

Best piercers in Btown! I’ve had four of my piercings done here over 7 years by two different piercers. They are always friendly, clean, professional, and gentle. They ask all necessary questions and make sure that you’ll be satisfied with your piercing. My most recent was a septum piercing and she listened to exactly how I wanted it to look and sized my jewelry perfectly! All of my piercings were walk-ins and I never felt uncomfortable or rushed. There is parking behind the building.

I have quite a few tattoos and one of my favorites is from an artist at this shop! I will be returning soon for more work. I am super picky about the artists I choose and all the ins and outs of my tattoos. She was great with details and made me feel comfortable. The only suggestion I would have is getting a more comfortable chair to sit in when being tattooed. I think the pain of sitting was worse than that of the tattoo itself!

Just got my second tattoo here, and they were amazing! It was on my ribs, which isn't the most comfortable spot to get inked, but he was really understanding when the pain got bad and made the whole thing go really smoothly. I'll definitely go back, they treat their customers really well! Great family who owns the business, i would highly recommend going here. I'm in love with my tattoo!

I don’t know why I’m just now getting around to leaving a review here but Jamie is absolutely amazing! She’s pierced me, my mom & so many of my friends. She’s also super quick and makes sure I feel 100 on what i’m getting. I’ve been going here for years now. No offense but I really don’t like all the other tattoo studios in Bloomington for various reason so I’m glad this place is reputable! Sarah is also super sweet & I had my nose ring readjusted (cus I didn’t know how to do it myself lol) by her a long time ago & she didn’t charge me! I haven’t had anything done by Kacey yet but I met her a long time ago & will be scheduling an appointment w her next year!

I had my nose done in January and I've been meaning to rate!
I am a minor so I was super nervous to get it done because I don't do well with pain at all.
The piercer was amazing and I'll definitely go back! She was patient and was able to keep me calm. Afterwards, she explained how to clean it and said if I needed to remember anything that I can check the website (which was very detailed and helpful, by the way!!). She even said that when and if I go to change it, I can go back and she will help me get my stud out!
The jewelry is also gorgeous and great quality! I usually have allergies to certain metals, but I haven't had any swelling or pain whatsoever. I definitely recommend Evil By The Needle! All my friends have gotten theirs done their too and we all love it. We will %100 go back!

Highly recommend! Jamie was my piercer. She was very patient with my indecisiveness and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. Cleanliness is great and the prices are pretty reasonable.

I've gotten multiple piercings here, along with one tattoo. I also brought my little sister in for her ear piercings.
Every time I visit, Jon and Jamie are nothing but friendly and knowledgeable. The shop is always sanitary and clean. If I have trouble with my piercings (which I'm prone to - sensitive skin), Jamie always offers suggestions and help.
Love coming to Evil by the Needle and would highly recommend it to others.

Super clean, and friendly. All the staff were very kind, professional and attentive. I never felt rushed or disregarded as just "another paycheck" like at some places. The place is immaculate and everything is cleaned and sterilized to the highest level. Definitely recommend going for piercing and tattooing needs. You won't be disappointed!

This is mine and my husbands go to place for tattoos or piercings. John has done multiple tattoos for myself and done large pieces like a sleeve for my husband. Hes done portraits of our children and more cartoon type pieces as well. I love his line work, the thick lines are my favorite. I've gotten multiple piercings from Jamie. Shes so nice and funny and keeps up a conversation with you while she works with you. The fact that they attend several conferences and such every year makes me feel like their hearts are invested in what they do and they want to be the best at it. The shop is clean and weve always had a great experience there.
