Lucky Gal Tattoo & Piercing

Absolutely outstanding experience! Mike did excellent work, I enjoyed meeting and talking to everyone in the shop! If you want a great tattoo I highly recommend this location but please respect the shop's time too. These people are talented and worth the effort to plan and schedule your appointment!

The guy that pierced my nose on East University pierced through my nose and the skin below my nose, then he pulled the needle back out of my nose. I was bleeding in my nose and the skin below my nose. After we got the bleeding to subside he said he would pierce it for half price. I said no thanks and left in tears. I’ve had my nose pierced five times on the right side, this time I was getting the left side pierced, so I know what to expect, this was a horrible experience.

Took my daughter to get her ears pierced. Charlie did a great job of walking my daughter through what he was doing and how to take care of her piercings after. Very friendly and clean place.

I went to Charlie to get my daith pierced. He was very friendly and super attentive. He even gave me some fruit gummies when I got pale and dizzy after the procedure and made sure I was good to go before letting me get up to leave.

Took our 5 yr old to the ankeny location today to get her ears pierced. She was very excited but also a little nervous. McKenzie did an amazing job and was so quick! After a few ‘“ow ow ow’s,” it was all done! She’s so excited and has been showing everyone. Other patrons and the tattoo artists were very welcoming which I think also helped a lot. Thanks so much!

I’ve been going to lucky gal for about two years for my tattoos now. I had my most recent tattoos scheduled for a few months now one with Rick and one with Chance when I receive these texts below. I thought it was kind of weird they both had been bitten by a dog right? So I go to the shop and Ricky is there. Not sure about Chance but I’m sure his story was a lie as well. This tatoo was special to me because my dad passed away last December and that’s what I was getting done. Be honest that maybe you scheduled someone else in my time slot instead of lie?

After 18 years of getting tattoos...I've never had a better experience. I'm not the easiest client, and Chris was patient and compassionate. His work is beautiful, and I'll never get tattooed by anyone else ever again. Thank you Chris. Beautiful work. And Bigg Chris...my dermal was almost painless😆 Thank you Both for being so great at what you do!

Easy to talk to about the tattoo design I wanted. And even though I had to reschedule the coloring (cuz I reached my pain limit) they were cool about it. At least while I was still in the shop...I deserved it though. Going back as soon as they think it's been long enough.

I wish I'd caught her name, but the girl that did my nose piercing was such a doll! Very clean and professional. I would definitely go back!

This place is very unprofessional. I came for a tattoo and waited an hour. Tattoo artist cancelled my appointment without letting me know ahead of time. Don’t get your tattoo done here. Last resort!
