    A couple of photos of me trying to get Eric. Just random shots of him not picking up or answering texts for reference.
    Anne R.

    Eric Bovenzi did half my back in a custom piece and then screwed up my appointment (i have text evidence). Then he fired me saying he did not do that style any more and left me with half my back covered and unfinished. He also complained about my disability and working with it. Super classy. Its unprofessional, unethical and just plain an asshole thing to do. Never again will I use Bovenzi and i will go to my grave making sure every person I know in the industry or even remotely interested in a tattoo knows his name and knows that he destroyed half my back. It was already a cover up piece working in between major scarring and burns on my back where there is major nerve damage. He complained about that too, so know that he is not very open to working with the disabled or being open to their needs. Definitely no good for any firefighters or anyone with burn damage on their body. And ladies beware if you are alone in a room with him and not versed enough to thwart his advances. 32 Old Town is holding on to trash. They need to just let his ass go back to whatever hole he crawled out of. He may know how to draw - but he is still garbage. Edited review for response - yes the reason you dont show me on the books is I spent 2 years trying to get him to answer me and calling your shop and even coming in and asking for appointments to his face. He fired me YESTERDAY 9.16.21 so he was working at your shop then. That was pretty disrespectful YESTERDAY. He started this tattoo 2 shops ago. I cant keep up with his job changes to get an appt. So no. He has NOT been respectful of current clients. The only reason I wasn't on the books is your boy plays games with my time. Now i have a hallf of a back piece from a pear shaped ass hat who thinks because he is Instagram famous he can treat people any kind of way. Even people who knew him before he could tattoo.

    Tragus and rook

    Linh did my first tragus and rook piercing today and she was awesome. She was friendly, professional and patient with me as a newbie. I will definitely go back for my next piercings.

    Third earlobe piercing
    Hailey R.

    Linh was amazing! It was our first time getting piercings done with her, and she was super welcoming and accommodating! I got my thirds pierced after they previously closed on my earlobes, and the process was quick and efficient! I will definitely come back for any future piercings and would recommend her to everyone for their piercing needs!

    I was extremely fortunate to find EB and Tim a couple years ago and I am so thankful that I was…read more The level of professionalism that these two show with every appointment, consultation, and sitting that I've spent with them speaks to how dedicated they are to their crafts. Since I've started going to them, I have not looked to anyone else to take care of my piercings or tattoos. EB is super helpful and thoughtful and has a great eye for piercing anatomy, and EB also takes the time out of super busy days to reply to messages and follow up with aftercare advice. EB from the beginning has been so accommodating with each visit and truly cares about the healing progress of finished work. Tim is such a hard worker and diligent artist and always takes time before/during/afterwards to make sure his projects are top notch. Every time that I see Tim's updated portfolio, my jaw always drops at how his creativity and his style shine, he is truly one of the best artists in the area in my humble opinion. Their work collectively speaks for itself. Additionally, they both take sanitation very seriously as they do not cut any corners in ensuring that their clients are taken care of for peace of mind. I recommend both of them in the highest regard and I think you should look no further when booking your next tattoo or piercing. Also, they both really love the organic fruit leather snacks from Whole Foods, I usually bring it during my visits to share with them because of how much they both love it. Make sure you bring them some and let them know I sent you!

    I'm leaving a 6/5 star review. The work speaks for itself. The art speaks for itself…read more I started working with Tim (IG @darkerplz) in October 2019 and ever since then he's done nothing but grow as an artist and a true professional. His creativity and the level of detail in his work are constantly evolving and it absolutely blows my mind. My Experience from start to finish on large projects, coming up with ideas together, and sitting in the chair for 8-9 hours in a day at times, has been nothing but a pleasant and wonderful one. Such a very humble and down to earth person. Great energy. Great vibrations. Great environment. I'm sure majority of his current clients would agree with me that he's probably the most sick and talented tattoo artist they will ever work with (I think that Is the case for me at least). If you're looking to get work done by this artist and at this shop, you will be in great hands and they will take care of you without a doubt. If you're reading this and considering getting work done, get on the books and calendar ASAP, Tim's quite a busy man nowadays lol! Peace and love,

    My nose stud fell out and I couldn't get it back in without the needle guide. Jenna saw me right…read moreaway and put it back in. Super quick, nice, professional. And there was no charge. Highly recommend supporting this place. Demetrias at the front desk was also very helpful.

    I'm not one to write reviews, but I attended this business a few days ago (12/29/24 around 11am)…read moreand still cannot shake how unprofessional my experience was. I came in with a simple request, I lost the back of my nostril piercing and needed a replacement. I even called ahead with what my problem was and they said they could help me. To start, they didn't ask for my ID once, and I am a 20 y/o 5ft woman, I look pretty young and am agreeable and shy. They told me that it probably wasn't a good idea to do the stud, because they weren't sure if my top would fit into their backings (threadless nostril jewelry is pretty standard but okay) and that they don't sell the backs separately (fair enough... I believed that they were trying to save me money). So they offered a hoop. I've been interested in a hoop for awhile so I hesitantly agreed and asked for the smallest option. It looked pretty big in my hand, so I asked again if they were sure the stud would be a bad idea (they said yes) and if they have a smaller hoop. I was brought into the back room where I said again the hoop seems too big for what I'm wanting, but the piercer just wanted to get it done. No offer to hold up a mirror to test the jewelry, which should be the bare minimum. After an aggressive insertion, I look in the mirror and burst into tears. It was too big and bleeding and hurt so bad. So then magically, they offered to sell a cheap stud to me (which is all I was wanting in the first place). She takes out the hoop, and tries to shove in the back of the stud without properly threading it (it obviously didn't work with more blood and pain), until she tried again with the threading. Of course, my gem fit perfectly in the backing. And of course, I still had to pay for both the hoop, stud, and their time. They just wanted to make a sale on the $30 dollar hoop instead of the $15 stud. Even grosser is beforehand they said that doing the hoop would be "saving me money" since they don't sell the backings of studs separately from the gem or ball (even though come to find it was half of what the hoop was). I originally felt that it was my fault my experience was so traumatic, but it is the professional's responsibility to make their customer comfortable and confident in their decision, especially when they are clearly nervous/hesitant/asking for other options repeatedly. And when you are in a line of work working with people's bodies. In conclusion, it was rushed, unnecessarily painful, unprofessional, expensive, and most of all deceptive. I feel violated. And to top it all off, they threw the 14k gold earring I had in my nose as a placeholder when I arrived in the garbage (she fished it out of there for me, but come on). Do better.
