I’m 12, and I just got my nose pierced by Elise. She’s so nice, caring, and she knows what she’s doing. She answered all of my questions, and taught me everything I need to know!

Stopped in for a double nostril ring - the person behind the counter was rude and belittling, very unhelpful. Having someone touching and changing your facial jewelry is already a close contact experience, rude and controlling comments don’t really help ‍♀️ I’d recommend going to a real piercing place!

Went here with my friend to get our daith’s done and experienced the most unprofessional piercings ever. The women’s name was Alexis-and it was very apparent that she did not care about what she was doing. I went first and she was very aggressive to the point where my friend felt like she was manhandling me. I bled so much. She left me unattended on the table with the clamp in my ear to get more tools because she struggled get the earring in. It took her an addition 3-5 minutes to get my earring actually in after the needle was inserted. I experienced such discomfort that I thought I was going to either puke or faint because my vision started to go black. After telling her this and seeing how poorly she did-my friend no longer wanted hers done. Alexis (the piercer) did not make sure I was OK and began to be rude to my friend. She told her she had to get the piercing done or she would charge her $25 for inconvenience. She pressured my friend into getting hers pierced too so she wouldn’t have the extra fee. AWFUL EXPERIENCE WOULD NOT RECOMMEND

I came in to get my Medusa pierced and I had Alexis. She was great, so nice. Showed that she cared and helped me calm my nerves (even though I’d had several piercings before). I typically go to the Mankato location, but being in St. Paul I can’t go there every time and I’ve never had a bad experience at the other locations here in the cities. I love you guys and I honestly don’t think I can go anywhere else for piercings and the selection of jewelry is great!

Möön did my dermal piercing and my nipple piercings. She's absolutely AMAZING!! She's so kind, thorough, and it really helped me ease my mind. she let me know about every step of the process and.it was over quick, virtually painless, and my piercings look amazing. if you come here, definitely ask for Möön!!

The piercers and receptionists are incredibly nice. Had gone here 3 times and each time had a wonderful experience. Don't look for another place to get piercing.

My experience was pretty disappointing. I went to get my septum pierced and Joanna (I think that was her name, not 100%) told me that my cupid was off center so it might look a little off. I didn't quite see it but I trusted her and appreciated her saying that. I decided I'd be ok if it looked just slightly off. The actual piercing ended up being very crooked because she said she tried to adjust for my cupid... I feel like if she just did it the normal way it would have been fine? IDK obviously we took it out and I was not charged. Perhaps the most annoying part of all of this was that afterward she told me that she is NOT THE SEPTUM EXPERT and that I should come back when that person was working. Why wouldn't you tell me that before??? SO now I have a crusty hole in my nose and no piercing to show for it. They offer free re-piercing but only if I had walked out with the messed up piercing which just doesn't make a ton of sense....they didn't even offer a discount or any incentive for me to come back...I would've considered coming to see their septum expert but they've kinda lost my trust now.

I have nothing but love for the artists that work at this great tattoo shop. I get so many compliments on my tattoos from strangers and recommend ppl to check this place out. Every artist I've met here are professional and so talented. They take pride in their work, so I can guarantee you'll come out loving your unique ink piece. You can set up an appointment with the artists to go over your ideas for a new tattoo (but they also take in walk-in customers so not necessarily appointment only). The shop environment is very clean and has a great vibe. They use clean, sterile items every time so nothing shady like other locations I've seen. Also, piercing staff is great, got a daith piercing and it was done so well it healed quickly and looks great. I've gotten tattoos from Javier, Angelo, Matt and Luscious and I highly recommend them all! Great guys to work with and fun to chat with during your tattoo session. Looking forward to getting more pieces from these great tattoo artists!

Man I've been meaning to post this for a while now. Angelo is one of the greatest artists I've had the pleasure of working with in this country. He's so freaking chill and yet professional. I first met him in 2017 before I even planned to move to Chicago but was just visiting for a weekend. Over email, he agreed to do a raven mandala. I expected something the size of my palm - he created something shoulder to shoulder. Eight grueling hours we spent together, knocking this thing out in one go. We even had lunch together before hand, so we probably spent close to 11 hours together as complete strangers. Now whenever I'm on that side of town, I pop in to say hi. Without fail, he asks me to lift the shirt so he can show off the badass tattoo he gave me. I adore him and the piece. We are now working together on so many different ideas. I love that I can give him a concept and he just runs with it. Everyone at the shop is wonderful, friendly, and professional. The music is always good. Company is even better.

I got my septum pierced in March and it was nearly painless and the wound has not given me any problems whatsoever, healing very nicely. Very friendly, professional staff. Great environment.

So this post is long overdue....sorry guys!! Hands down best tattoo artist and shop in Chicago. Jake is by far one of the best artist I've worked with. Not only is his work sick but he is genuinely a great dude! And he has now done a full sleeve for me and an add on to my leg. Can't wait to get in and work on our next piece. Thanks so much to Jake and Royal Flesh....Great people and shop!!! Go see Jake
