Piercing in Riverside

“These artist at empire tattoo are rad! They don’t just give you the best ink they allow you to vent so it’s a therapy session also ?“

“As soon as you walk in to the studio there's so much to look at including the brow artist Alyssa she's so beautiful inside and out. The place is so modern and clean and styled to edgy bold perfection. Everything looks new and fresh in there and you can make yourself at home she has a couch table soft chairs snacks water and a TV for entertainment. I even fell asleep during the process it was so painless. I could not be happier with my brows. She asked me the following day how my brows felt and I told her I forget I even got them done there is no discomfort or pain I only remember when I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and I smile cause they slay so hard. Thank you Alyssa I highly recommend her work to anyone considering getting their eyebrows, piercings, or spray tanning done.“

“Walking into Steadfast was more than just a visit to a tattoo and piercing shop—it was an experience that genuinely moved me. There’s something incredibly special about this place, something you can feel the moment you step through the door. It’s warmth, it’s passion, it’s artistry… but above all, it’s the people who make Steadfast unforgettable.
The management team deserves the deepest praise. Their leadership doesn’t just run the shop—it shapes the entire atmosphere. It’s refreshing and honestly inspiring to see a team that leads with compassion, respect, and a sincere commitment to their clients and their artists. You can feel their influence everywhere: in the calm, organized flow of the shop; in the confidence and happiness of the staff; and in the way you’re treated like you matter from start to finish. It’s rare to see management create such a positive ripple effect, but Steadfast does it effortlessly.
The artists pour their hearts into their work. You can see it in every line, every stroke, every detail they craft. My tattoo isn’t just ink on my skin—it feels like a piece of art that carries emotion, care, and meaning. The piercers are just as extraordinary—gentle, reassuring, and deeply knowledgeable. Their presence alone makes you feel safe and supported.
Steadfast is spotless, beautifully kept, and filled with an energy that feels both grounding and uplifting. It’s the kind of place where you don’t just receive a service—you walk away feeling lighter, happier, and genuinely cared for.
I left Steadfast not only with incredible art, but with gratitude. Gratitude for their talent, their kindness, and the heart they put into everything they do. This shop is one in a million. If you’re looking for a place that will treat you with respect, create something beautiful, and make you feel like family—Steadfast is the only choice.“
