Talented Artist Clean Shop Good Attitudes

Greg Mosier (GarbxEdge)did an amazing job on completing a piece I had done six years ago by a different (not so talented) artist. For six years I've been 'hiding' my arm and finally, after enough courage to just go in and talk to someone- he has turned it into art to be proud to show off! As long as I live in the Louisville area I will continue to come to come here to see Greg. I recommend him to anyone! The shop is clean and pleasant. Everyone I encountered had good attitudes and I felt very comfortable. Thanks again!

Great Experience Friendly Staff Walk-ins Welcome

My husband and I traveled from out of town and stumbled upon this shop. We love the layout, the personalities, and of course the quality of our tats. They were very accommodating to our wishes and were able to get us in as a walk-in... no appointment necessary! We loved the whole experience.

Amazing Tattoos Professional Informative Helpful Piercer

Noah Childs did amazing tattoos on myself and my daughter! Extremely professional and informative. The next time we pass through Kentucky we will definitely be back for more ink! Also the piercer was EXTREMELY helpful! I got a piercing back home that was giving me issues, he looked at it and new exactly what the issue was and fixed it for me.

great artist clean studio friendly staff

DJ Pearcy did my tattoo yesterday, I absolutely LOVE IT! I couldn't have asked for a better tattoo or artist. I had an idea of what I wanted, and asked DJ for his honest and professional opinion. He gave me his ideas of placement and just the overall design of the tattoo. I am more than happy that I went with his suggestions, it's perfect and by far better than I had planned out for myself. I will continue going to DJ for any future tattoos and will suggest DJ and Hornets Nest to all of my friends. Hornets Nest is a very clean studio, and I loved the atmosphere. The guys and girls there are very friendly and made my experience enjoyable. Thank you again, DJ! You're awesome!

Professional Comfortable Minimal Pain Recommend

I recently went and got a couple of "private" piercings. JD made me feel super comfortable and was an absolute professional. It was quick and I felt very minimal pain. 10/10 would recommend!

Professional Best in town Exceeded expectations

Top Notch! Billy came in on his day off to modify an old tattoo into a masterpiece. I agreed to meet BIlly an hour early at the shop, on his day off to discuss ideas and I ran a new idea I liked by him at the last minute and his response was, β€œ No problem man, we will make that rock” and he did just that. Exceeded my expectations. These guys are professional and are the BEST in town.

Thanks Billy and Team.

Tattoo Artist Attention to Detail Creative

I was very nervous about getting my first tattoo almost a year ago. I was worried about my pain tolerance, what it would look like and if I was making a mistake. @charlie_devil1985 Did my very first tattoo and made it into something I could of never imagined. It was above and beyond my expectations. Now presently, I have 7 tattoos. And they were all done by Charlie. Charlie is one of few tattoo artist who cares about the detail of the tattoo. Each tattoo looks unique and creative. He's really good at listening to your ideas and adding his own touch to it. Every tattoo is sketched to perfection and won't be finished until you absolutely love it. If you want a tattoo you won't regret definitely visit Charlie!

Poor Communication Inaccurate Information Expensive

I can only speak of my experience with the piercer. He barely said anything to me other than aftercare. He may have just made a mistake, but he told me that the healing time for both my labrets and conch would be 4-6 weeks. And I guess $100 for three piercings isn't bad, but you can find better.

painful piercing lack of communication poor aftercare

The gentleman at the front was very helpful with paperwork and info, very welcomining. But when I went back to get my Philthrum piercing, it wasn't a great experience. Noah was my piercer and he had pierced it extremely slow and was pulling my lip a lot, making it a bit more painful that it should've been (not quick and painless) which was weird since all of my other piercings never seem to be that bad. It's started to imbed itself in my lip, turns out he pierced it at an angle (not straight through my lip) so I now have to take it out, let it heal up, then I plan to get it redone but by another piercer. Also I was uncomfortable about the fact he didn't tell me what he was doing as he was doing it, didn't show me him opening the needle, didn't tell me what material of jewelry he used, what guage he pierced it at, gave me no aftercare instructions. He just said "clean twice daily, brush your teeth". Don't think I'll be going back.
