Unbelievable (in the best sense)! Brought my 6 year old to get her ears pierced and Derek was so patient and kind with her, explaining every step of the process both during a consultation and the actual piercing appointment- he even let her bring her favorite stuffed animal for comfort. She was very happy with her earrings, which of course makes me happy!! I can't say enough good things about this place and Derek.

I had my cartilage pierced for the very first time ever and Derek was awesome. He was very friendly and professional, he made me feel very comfortable that he knew what he was doing. All in all the experience was great, the shop was clean, and I will definitely be going back for the jewelry if not for another piercing.

Personally, Derek came off a little passive aggressive. I came in with an issue with my lobe piercing which were done elsewhere. He didn't seem that willing to help once I got to the location. Instead he just made it seem like I was over reacting and sent me on my way as fast as he could. I wouldn't recommend this place.
I called another Tattoo shop down the way that is located inside of Ingram park mall. The lady was amazing she switch my earrings to a long post so that my ears had room to swell. My ears started to feel and look better just a few hours later.

After reading tons of reviews online, I decided on Buddha Box for my septum piercing. Derrick was wonderful, patient and thorough. I LOVE the final product and the shop was immaculate. I was also very pleasantly surprised at the jewelry options!! Many more than I anticipated. I was very impressed with their safety measures and the quality of their work. I'll be taking my 6 year old soon to get her ears pierced!

Probably the cleanest, most professional shop I have been in over the course of all the tattoos and piercings my wife and I have collectively gotten. Glad to see tattoo talent like Jerry has found its way there.
Specifically my wife went for a double forward helix. Derek was the consummate professional. At every shop before it was point, stab, bleed, pay leave. Derek took the time to talk and draw the spots out, making sure the positioning would be best set for healing and looks. This man is the first person who has made me see piercing as an art and a professional skill, not just putting holes in people. I found myself commenting multiple times about how amazed I was and even had to give him a hug after for making my wife feel so comfortable.
Overall, considering my wife has over 10 piercings, two half sleeves, and my calves are completely covered, this is probably the smoothest most comfortable experience I have ever had in a shop. Definitely will be referring people and giving return business.

We got our daughter's ears pierced. Derek was wonderful. He found that her very old piercings were still good so he treated them and made them viable again. He was very professional and gentle with our daughter. The earrings are beautiful. We will definitely be returning.

experience was great, they were very informative and patient. when it came to my actually piercing Derek did my double Helix, and i barely felt it. also they provide after care information for you so everything heals appropriately. definitely going back for all my future piercings.

Went in wanting my nose pierced. I got online and Buddha had the best reviews. Walked in and was greeted by Erin. She was absolutely great. Described all the aftercare, different jewelry, and let me ask questions. I was nervous and terrified! She settled me and made the piercing experience so awesome! I felt like a baby afterwards for being so worked up about it! Will definitely return here and would recommend Erin and the shop to everyone!!

Went in by appointment on a Saturday afternoon and they got me started right when i walked in. The woman at the front desk (I don't know her name) was very nice and informative. I got my nostril pierced and Derek was my piercer. He was absolutely amazing and informative! I was pretty scared it would hurt but he made it very quick and painless. I will definitely be going for any piercing needs.
