Waffles was very professional and accommodating. Fit us in last minute. Made us feel comfortable. As an RN, he’s got great bedside manner. Explained the procedure thoroughly and after care. Would recommend!!
Quick and easy piercing, got a septum. I would say I had a good experience! However, the piercing was pretty expensive for a septum.
Best piercing shop i've ever been to! Travelled here from Arizona for a concert, I'd decided I wanted to get a piercing before I left. The piercer and Tattoo artist that were in today were both super friendly, piercer was very nice about placement and was super professional, fun, and carried conversation with me…
Waffles pierced my belly button and it was such a fun easy process!! He was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this shop to everyone!! They are all very professional
Walked in a few weeks ago and got my nose pierced! Super super fast and clean (also very affordable), I would definitely come back for Waffles again!
I went a couple of days ago, I got recommended from another tattoo shop near by. They had great service as well as great customer service. I got my belly pierced, he finished in less than 5 minutes, afterwards he thoroughly explained the cleaning process. Overall a great experience and will be coming back!
Amazing shop! Waffles was so kind and helpful I greatly appreciate the work he did for me!
I had a great experience getting my belly button and nose pierced by waffles. The shop was clean and I felt confident in the information given about how to take care of my piercings. I've had issues healing in the past, but so far I've had no issues. My belly button was re-pierced since I took it out during…
I got my belly button pierced by Waffles. He did an awesome job! It was very quick and easy. You can tell he is a professional and has the costumers best interest in mind. I would definitely recommend.
Amazing experience. Got pierced by Waffles and he got me all set up and was done really quick. He also showed me how to care for my piercing. Will definitely be going back for more!
One of the best experiences i’ve had in a tattoo shop! I got my doubles by scooter who made sure i loved the placement before he did it. The whole vibe and experience of this shop is amazing. I plan on coming back near the end of summer for another piercing!
Love my new piercing! Scooter did a great job and took time to consider the best way to make my piercing look perfect! Highly recommend!
I went to see Scooter for a piercing and he was incredible. So professional and fun. He made it such a memorable experience for my friend and me. I will definitely be going back to him for my next one!
I had such a great time! The hole crew made me feel extremely comfortable! I am sooo happy with my decision! My gentleman did a fantastic job! Can’t wait to come back!
Scooter was awesome and super helpful to my friend and me. If my ears have any more room for piercings, I’m going back to him!
Scooter was a really helpful, informative, and solid guy. Made the process quick and painless. Would definitely recommend this spot.
got a tongue piercing here, scooter did a great job ! the bar is the perfect size, and it was quick and easy for a walk in would definitely come back
I went into the shop for a labret piercing and Scooter helped me out. Very easygoing guy and was very attentive to detail, which was great because I was fixing an old piercing that was in the wrong position. It’s now been a few weeks and I love my piercing! Great placement and the healing process is very easy. Will…
Amazing service and gave me lots of information for aftercare on my piercing! Scooter is great!
Great experience for a last minute piercing. Friendly, fast, and hygienic.
