Tribute Great Location Excellent Service

My mom died in July and the 3 kids and my dad all went in last week to get the same tat that mom had. Tribute to an amazing woman. Anyway, Steve was our guy. And he was excellent. Very understanding. Great location too. We all celebrated next door at Samuel’s during and afterwards. 🍻

Bad Piercing Poor Service

i went to give this place a try on my birthday because i was in the portland area. Whoever the girl is, pierced my nipple diagonally up. i now have to take it out and pay to get it repierced. don’t be a piercer if you’re unable to be precise every time. just seems like they’re pushing people through the system to get as much $$ as possible.

Clean Shop Professional Staff Affordable Prices

I go to Almost Famous for all my piercings, it's the only shop I feel safe/ clean to pierce my body. I got my septum, bridge, and nipples done here and bring my friends as well. Most of the costs cover the initial jewelry as well, no separate fee. $45-65 is super cheap for a clean, healed, straight piercing. They're quick, but usually first come first serve or appointment. All their piercers are quick and professional in a kickbutt way!

Great atmosphere Spectacular line work Attentive to comfort Highly recommend

I've gotten two pieces here and have absolutely loved my experience each time. Everyone in the shop is very nice and makes you feel comfortable; great atmosphere!
Charlie has done both of my pieces and I couldn't be happier with them. His line work is spectacular and his colors really pop! He's also very attentive to the comfort of the client, which is very reassuring. I get compliments on my tattoos all the time. I would highly recommend Charlie or anyone else at Almost Famous! You won't be disappointed!

Quick Service Professional Friendly

Quick, professional & nice! I was nervous, being my first time. He did it in like 2mins, no lie. We talked for about 10 mins, just jabbing. Nice experience!

Great Experience Patient Staff Clean Instruments Affordable Prices

Great experience taking my daughter here to get her ears pierced. Missy really took her time with her and made sure that she was comfortable, and was so patient and explained everything... I was really impressed. I've been telling everyone since - "don't take your kids to the mall to get their ears pierced. Go to Almost Famous. Better service, cleaner instruments, better quality jewelry, and less than HALF the cost of piercing at Claire's."

On a whim I decided to get my nose pierced yesterday! Zasu, the piercer, was so nice and professional! She really made me feel comfortable and explained the healing process in detail. I would recommend Almost Famous for any and all piercing and tattoo needs!

Professional Staff Great Service Knowledgeable Recommended

My sister and I went there yesterday, I got the other side of my nostril done and my sister got her septum. Their shop has a capacity limit so we had to wait outside but weren't waiting very long. The guy that did our intake, I think his name was James, was very nice. We both got pierced by Missy, and I swear I wish I could just take her home with meeeeee. She made us both feel so comfortable, made us laugh, and did an AMAZING job with both of our piercings. I already have a few and still she was very thorough with educating me and giving me after care instructions. We are from North Conway, NH and we went to that shop specifically because of the online reviews about Missy. She definitely did not disappoint. I will 100% be going there for all of my future piercings. Thank you sm Missy
