Another great visit. KC did a great job with my breast cancer tattoo. Made me feel comfortable and at ease through out. Would recommend.

This place is the best in town! So clean and professional and a gorgeous space. I have been pierced and tattooed in other places and this one was definitely the top! Paul is great and very professional and causal. Everyone else was super nice definitely going to recommend this place to any and all people who want a piercing. They also had a great selection of jewelry. I got both nipples pierced by him and had an awesome expierence! So happy with the results and the shop. Coming in again for sure.

If you care about attitude/customer service for piercing, I suggest trying Chameleon for someone more skilled in that area. I was with a friend for my teen daughter getting her ears pierced for first time. On the website, they seemed like they knew what they were doing & would be cool. Unfortunately, in person, not very friendly from the outset, badly enough that I asked my friend if she knew of any other places she could recommend, and we left to find someplace else. I'm not someone who likes to rock boats, either. I don't normally walk out of places. I'm more likely to take rudeness than stand up for myself, but this was not looking like it was going to be the special experience we wanted for my daughter, with someone with such poor people skills. We ended up at Chameleon & that was much better. My friend said that she actually had 2 previous experiences with them being rude at Citrine, but hadn't wanted to overstep and say anything, since we had already picked out our place & hadn't asked for her opinion earlier. The people at Chameleon were great, made us feel welcome, and really took their time & helped my daughter have a great experience. I hate speaking ill, but I know getting a piercing is something that it is often special and really important for people to not have a bad customer-service encounter. So if it helps someone else that is concerned enough to read reviews, really looking for someone with a warm bed-side manner, I wanted to put this out there.

Such an amazing experience at X! Went in for family tattoos and Emma was incredible. Can't recommend her and X Tattoo enough!

Been working with KC for close to ten years. He is very welcoming and friendly, takes the time to get to know his clients and the shop is very comfortable with a really fun vibe.

Tim was professional and personable as he expertly knocked out a half sleeve of line work in 2 hours, outline done perfectly. Its a comfortable, small parlor with passionate artists and I would recommend it to anyone that wants a high quality tattoo from a shop thats distinctly Bellingham.
@timallentattoo gets an easy 10/10 and i plan on going back to him again after my first piece is done.

I've now had 3 fantastic tattoo experiences with KC Lange and look forward to more. He is respectful, talented, and fun to talk to. I am pretty introverted, and tend to be (feel?) awkward until i get to know someone, but he and the vibe of the shop put me to ease quickly. There's laughter and good tunes. I have a lot of cover up work to be done, and i really appreciate that KC communicates well and also understands how emotionally impactful it can be. The work he has done on me so far has been phenomenal, i have complete trust in him! I also have to throw out there (because it's important to know!) - this shop is CLEAN AF. So, we have a clean and fun atmosphere, quality tattoos, good music and convo, and lots of parking available. Seriously, what more could you want?? 5 stars. Go forth and be awesome.

My fave shop in town - the staff go above and beyond in every way. Amazing atmosphere. No egos (rare in a tattoo shop, tbh). Genuinely an environment where I feel safe. And top notch tattooing to boot.

I got a rook piercing this evening, and was incredibly nervous (as anyone about to have a needle shoved through part of their body might be). Paul did an incredible job making me feel more comfortable, and less nervous. He did the piercing with such finesse. The shop was immaculate, and the tattoo artist KC was also very friendly. All in all, really great experience. Will definitely be back in the future!

I have been there 3 times. I don't know much about the piercing side but it's a great place to get a tattoo. The atmosphere is amazing. Lots of cool art on the walls that they are willing to do cheap prints of if you ask. The staff there are all cool if little standoffish at first.
I always get my tattoos done by Roberto. Cool guy and he dose an amazing job. If you have an idea of what you want line for line hes not your guy though. He always draws my stuff from scratch and quite frankly he does an amazing job.
His quotes always run on the low side though. Normally I find it's about 25% more than the quote he gives me before he draws up the art. That being said I am never disappointed with the results. Worth every penny.
