Review of Electric Unicorn Tattoo Collective
Electric Unicorn Tattoo Collective is a tattoo shop located in Sterling, Virginia. The shop has a great presence and a welcoming atmosphere. The studio is stunning and exceptionally clean. The artists are both permanent and guest, and they are very talented. They are meticulous when it comes to personal space on the tattoo floor area and sanitary tattoo stations. It's comforting to know you're set up for a great experience.
The shop offers tattoo and piercing services. They use needles for piercing, which is a plus point for many customers. The piercings are pain-free and never irritated, weeks afterward. The placement is perfect, and the price is among the least expensive for the piercing and jewelry.
The shop has received mixed reviews from customers. Some customers have had great experiences with the artists, while others have had not-so-great experiences. Some customers have complained about the lack of communication and unprofessional behavior of the artists. However, most of the customers have praised the shop for its cleanliness, talented artists, and welcoming atmosphere.
If you're looking for a tattoo or piercing, Electric Unicorn Tattoo Collective is worth checking out. The shop has a great presence, and the artists are very talented. However, it's recommended to do your research and read reviews before choosing an artist.

Absolutely phenomenal shop. They have an artist for any and every style you could possibly want. Billy is seriously the man and I've been going to him for tattoos for years. Erika creates killer tattoos and is incredibly kind. Jordan, Jesse, Justin are all hilarious and a tremendous pleasure to work with. Julienne is incredibly sweet and welcoming every time you call or walk into the shop. Super laid back and clean environment. I cannot recommend this shop enough. I've gotten ink from shops from Virginia to Florida to California, and Electric Unicorn is my all time favorite. 11/10 would recommend.

Took my 6 year old to get her ears pierced by Jesse. He did such a great job with her, was patient and kind and made the experience so awesome that I got pierced too. Just went back and had Jordan work on my tattoo too. He's fantastic also. The place is super clean and you can tell they take their protocols seriously. The whole vibe in general was cool and I felt really comfortable going there, not just for myself but with my daughter too. Highly recommend on all fronts!

Went in for a cover up and it couldnβt have came out better. Justin came up with an idea that worked out and I was really impressed. Really cool artist to work with highly recommend.
My girlfriend also got ears pierced with Jesse and she was really happy with the process. All the staff are great.

I've gotten multiple piercings since they've opened and it's always super clean. There's hand sanitizer everywhere and they take great steps to sanitize the shop. Jesse is great. He's super knowledgeable about piercings and answers any questions, patient, and super honest about the healing process. Definitely the only place I trust to get piercings!

If you need a piercing, go here. Jesse is awesome! He works quickly and with laser precision. I got an industrial, a rook, and 2 lobe piercings today The pain was minimal, and the piercings were perfectly placed. I will definitely be back. Bonus: the shop is super clean. The receptionist wiped down all the tables and chairs as soon as a customer got up. Jesse sterilized the tablet before and after I used it to do my paperwork, and they had hand sanitizer everywhere.

Perfect atmosphere for even young children to come in and get their ears pierced. My daughter felt at ease as the staff explained every step of the process to her.

My cousin and I got tattooed by Billy today and it was such a fun and easy experience! He was so nice to talk to and did a great job on our tattoos. The place had great vibes and the whole experience was effortless. I canβt wait to come back!

I'm in shock at how awesome this place is, and my artist, Erika. It was so clean, fresh, everything seemed new, and everyone there was super friendly and professional. I've never felt more welcomed in a tattoo studio before, and that was just the beginning! Erika is a super talented artist who does phenomenal work. I got a large piece done and I felt 100% comfortable in her hands! Can't recommend her and Electric Unicorn enough.

I followed Erika from her previous location to Electric Unicorn. Her tattoos are consistently fantastic, and the new shop is impeccable, Billy did amazing! The location is super easy to access, awesomely decorated with a modern open concept. New Covid-19 precautions are also in place (although I know all the tattoo artists and piercer hold the highest standards for cleanliness regardless) including social distancing, minimal contact, and wiping down of all surfaces regularly. Don't wait to stop by -- Electric Unicorn will provide you with a great tattoo, fantastic piercing, all in a clean, safe environment.
