I have no idea how this shop earns a high rating. He's a nice person, but he's ham-fisted and has…read morea child running around the shop all night while he works. The end result is a rushed tattoo by a completely distracted single dad who overworks the heck out of the tattoo area. It took months for my skin to heal. The tattoo areas were so overworked that I have been battling a losing fight against tattoo granulomas. I have several tattoos and have never had an immune response before and now I'm looking at having to endure laser treatments and immunosuppressants until resolved/removed. I take responsibility too. There were several times I should have walked away, before and during my tattoos. I should wife walked away when I spent an hour entertaining his child. I should've walked away when he had to continuously interrupt our session to deal with his daughter. I should have stopped when I realized that the tattoo was looking to be completed in less than half the anticipated time. I should have stopped and walked away when I saw the texture of my skin began to change mid-tattoo and literally constrict and tighten right before my eyes. But then didn't, because I didn't know why... His daughter is adorable and he seems like a nice guy, but he is not putting the care and safety of clients first, either that or he's just really inexperienced. My tattoos are a disaster. They itch. They hurt. They bleed. It's been months and my road to recovery is barely beginning. And that's only one aspect. A behind the ear tattoo recover he did has left me with marked physical changes to the mastoid bone and it is undetermined still as to whether or not I will require invasive treatment to repair it. All my other tattoos from other artists remain fine. So my issues are not a systemic attack against the inks themselves or I would have issues with other tattoos as well. My issues are self-limiting to his work: Go elsewhere. Don't take the chance. It's just not worth the risks.

Once checked in, we picked out the jewelry and Shar explained the difference between the metal types and benefits. After picking out the earrings she went to prep her tools and piercing station and chatted with us as she went. Once she was ready to do the piercing she explained the process and thoroughly sanitized my baby's earlobes. Everything was very clean and Shar was very kind and gentle throughout the whole thing. Once the piercing was complete Shar reviewed the aftercare instructions and made sure we were knowledgeable about what to expect for the healing process. We would absolutely recommend Shar to anyone who is considering taking their children to get their lobes pierced.
