I can’t say enough great things about Isaac! I went to him for my nose piercing, and I’ll be honest—I was nervous about the pain. But Isaac walked me through everything, answered my questions, and kept me calm. When it came time for the piercing, it was so quick and smooth that I barely felt a thing! Honestly, it was painless and way easier than I expected.
Isaac has such a gentle, precise technique, and it shows—my piercing is healing beautifully. Beyond being incredibly skilled, he has a calm, positive energy that instantly puts you at ease. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to have the best experience.
If you’re even thinking about getting a piercing, Isaac is the one to see. I walked in nervous and walked out with a gorgeous piercing—and the confidence that I’ve found the only piercer I’ll ever go to again.
Honestly the best place I ever got a tattoo from. Jedi was a great guy and my tattoo turned out exactly the way I hoped it would turn out. Highly recommend coming to this place again in the future.
Damon is absolutely an amazing artist! He did an incredible job on mine and my friend’s tattoos! We both love them to much! He was so funny and great to work with! It was a pleasure having him do my tattoo! He did this fine line shell on my arm and it turned out better than I could have imagined! :)
