Heroic Ink Tattoo & Piercing

My daughter and I wanted to commemorate our trip to Florida but didn’t have time while down there so we made an appointment at Heroic Ink and we are very happy with the way our palm trees came out and when we hold hands they form a heart! Kaylee and Joely worked on us and made sure we were happy with our design, placement and tried hard to ensure sizing and everything was perfect! Great place, awesome people and decent pricing! Highly recommended whether it’s your first tattoo, like my daughter, or third, like me.

Hands down one of my favorite tattoo shops I've been to. The vibe is spectacular. The environment is super clean. The artists are so talented and really easy to talk to during the sessions!! Come check it out when you get the chance!

I got my first tattoo here about a year ago and the experience was great. My tattoo artist, Bri, did an amazing job at walking me through the process and making me feel comfortable. They also made sure that the design, size, and placement of the tattoo were exactly how I wanted it to be. Very happy with the results! I definitely will book my next tattoo with them again.

I got my tattoo done by Joely and not only is she super talented but also great to talk to! She made the experience really comfortable and worked to make my tattoo something special. Definitely will be working with her again!

Best service I have received for a tattoo or piercing appointment. The shop is very clean and professional. Joely did my tattoo and was amazing about helping me place it and talking through my decision. It's simple but very personal to me and it means the world that she was meticulous when doing it.

Very professional, but still friendly and re-assuring when I was nervous about getting my nose pierced. The piercings are also very quality and barely hurt at all!

I will definitely be coming back for future piercings/tattoos!

Spent over 2 hours calling all the places in the Des Moines area trying to find a piercer to get my daughter's ears pierced.... Not a single place had one that was working that day... I had somebody suggest this place and they got us an appointment the same day!! The two girls working were so absolutely kind and professional! This was my 7-year-old's first ear piercing and it was such a wonderful experience!!

Had my tattoo appointment with James,it's my third tattoo by him.He is so talented,professional and friendly always checking and making sure we're on the same page with placement and size!!! Very pleased with his work.I highly recommended him!! And I'll be back to schedule another appointment when the books open back up!!! Thank you James🤙🤙

I got a tattoo from this shop from a lovely artist. However, another artist, Bri Tran, has since that day: stalked, harassed, & slandered myself & my significant other on a weekly routine. I expected a tattoo when going to this shop. Not to be stalked, not to be called derogatory slurs. This is the most outlandishly unprofessional thing I have ever, quite unfortunately, been a part of. I honestly cannot believe such a disrespectful, and EXTREMELY immature artist is employed at such a nice place. I highly implore anyone looking for a nice tattoo and service go to another shop to avoid such things also happening to them, for your own safety and mental health! Knhiveschau, aka Bri Tran, on TikTok shows CLEAR evidence of stalking and harassment for months. Notice how her relative has to give an "unbiased" review. Absolutely disgusting behavior. These people should be ashamed of themselves. BLATANT attacks against my looks, even in the review her family left. that's just how how negative & nasty a person she is. If tattoo shops were made as a starting point for harassment, she'd be perfect. If you don't believe me, that's fine, but I won't sit here and let her continue her stalking w/out letting people know.

Bri is my tattoo artist, and being 100% unbiased, bri has been professional through and through. She is an amazing tattoo artist, but it's a shame she had to deal with a wannabe e-girl who makes alt accounts to stalk/harass her and makes rude comments with racist undertones and wonders why she can't get a tattoo from there.
