Blue Lotus Tattoo & The Piercing Lounge

I was not pleased with the piece I had done here. The artists work wasn’t quality. One of the tattoos I got came off almost entirely and had to be completely gone over at the touch up. The line work was mediocre and she didn’t seem to pay attention to my concerns. During the consultation she was confident in her abilities, however, the results did not reflect much expertise. I’m disappointed with the permanent piece she left me with. I feel that a different artist would have been a better choice.

Otherwise, the front desk staff were quite friendly.

I stopped in to Blue Lotus Tattoo and Piercing Lounge about a week ago to get my nose pierced, expecting a fairly basic /standard experience: a quick poke, some aftercare instructions, and then I'd be on my way. The experience by far exceeded my expectations, and I left the studio feeling truly impressed. Myke went above and beyond throughout the appointment. He took extra time to help me pick out a piece of jewelry that I not only loved but also found fitting to my face. He was respectful, professional, informative and genuine. He answered any questions before I even had to ask them, and his knowledge shone through as he answered those questions in great depth. The entire experience was so much different (in a positive way) than any other I've had in a piercing/tattoo studio, and I certainly don't plan on going to anyone else to get pierced in the future, as I honestly don't feel that the service provided by Myke could be matched.

I got my naval done by Myke and he was super nice and reassuring and made the whole experience super comfortable. It went by so fast and clean. My piercing looks gorgeous! Totally recommend coming here!

Nicole pierced my nose back in January and I am happy to report that it is healing beautifully. I have had difficulties with other piercings in the past, but after having 2 piercings in general from Blue Lotus and my most recent by Nicole, I am excited to specifically request her for my future piercings. The experience felt unique, welcoming, and relaxed. Nicole also listened to my desire for the piercing to be slightly angled so that a hoop would fit nicely in the future, and graciously changed out my daith piercing. I look forward to not only seeing Nicole for more work in the near future, but visiting for tattoo services as well.

Nicole pierced my eyebrow and it is healing great. The overall vibe here is clean, welcoming and very relaxed-just not like any other tattoo shop I've been in. I called in for an appointment and got in the very next day-that's what I wanted! Nicole was friendly, very personable and made me feel comfortable as I'm a fairly anxious person! I will definitely be back to get more piercings and/or tattoos in the future!

I got my tragus pierced by Myke. He was awesome! He calmed my nerves and I hardly felt anything. I even asked questions about other piercings and he was kind enough to answer them. I will be coming back for my second tragus and other piercings here.

I was so nervous because I'm always nervous of needles and definitely because of Covid. Myke was Great. He change his gloves often while helping me to ensure that I felt safe sanitize and eased my comfort level. He explained everything as he was preparing the needles and inserting the earring.. I recommend myke because he made my first experience Great.

Also, grace is great.. watch and learned how to deal with someone like me 😆 I laugh because I'm sure she has helped with other people, but I am glad I wasn't one of them while she is training only because my nervous wouldn't allow, but I know she will be great piercer and tattoo artist.

The shop itself is very clean, well-lit, and tastefully decorated, and the staff that I've worked with has, with the exception of maybe one or two people, been friendly and eager to help.

I'm really disappointed with my last experience(s) at Blue Lotus, however. I splurged on a more expensive piece of body jewelry to get my navel pierced, and even with proper aftercare (and I'm no novice to piercings), it literally snapped apart after about two weeks of wear. Again, this was a specialty, pricier-than-average piece of jewelry, from an allegedly reputable manufacturer, so I'm just really sad that I wasted so much money on such a cheaply-made product.

I also bought new nipple jewelry during this visit, and when I got home, I realized that the captive bead rings were two different rings. Very close in appearance, but one was darker and slightly smaller than the other. I went back to the shop, and was told that no, they were the same rings, but they still looked mismatched to me after that second visit, so I went to Eldritch Brothers to see what they thought, and sure enough, they were two different rings.

Most of the artists I've seen here have been kind, talented, and helpful, and the shop is professional and clean, but this last experience left a bitter taste in my mouth, and I will probably not return.

EDIT: I'm changing my rating from two to three stars because I don't want to review based off only two of many visits to Blue Lotus. Thanks for the response, Myke. I've actually been pierced by you several times and have always been super happy with the results. I came in around noon on 10/15 and was helped by Holly. She was very sweet and professional, but let me walk out twice with mismatched jewelry.

I’ve gotten all my piercings done here by Myke (I currently have 8) and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. He’s always done a great job on all my piercings. He’s quick and obviously knows what he’s doing. I’ve pointed many of my friends and family in his direction when they want something done and would recommend him to anyone who asked.

Myke made sure I was comfortable every step of the way, answered questions thoroughly, and did a fantastic job with my piercings. Pricing is competitive and their COVID-19 policies are sensible and made me feel secure. I highly recommend!
