Here's the thing about me. Sometimes I can be all talk and…read moreno action. In fact, I've been slated to go 3 different times to get tattoos with friends, and each time I've bailed. BAH. So, when having family visit from out of town who were desperate to get tattoos with me, I figured if we were going to do it, we'd go close to home. White Lotus was the spot of choice, and a decent one at that. Staff is beyond friendly, welcoming and eager to assist. We met with Dave who gave us a rundown of the place, provided us with rates and allowed us to make an appointment for a later date and email him what we wanted tattooed. Rates range depending on the size, shape, design level and location of the piece - but going rates start at $150/hour - which in the limited research I've done, seems reasonable. On the day of, the girls were eager to get their ink, while I found myself nervous beyond belief. A young woman (her name escapes me now) helped to ensure me everything was going to be okay, that she was there to walk me through it and gave me sound advice when it came to size, shape and locations of the tattoo. Just before she started the first line, I realized I wasn't ready for something permanently on my body and asked to stop. She was gracious and said it was no problem - as many people have this reaction. I paid her for her time but walked away inkless! I'll admit, the attention to detail, line quality and overall end result looked great on our guests - and they left happy! Whenever I'm "ready" for a tattoo or another piercing - I'll head to White Lotus!

While out celebrating my mom's birthday we decided to be spontaneous and get a few piercings. The…read morestaff were so patient, well informed, and friendly (even when some potential customers got rude because they had filled up all possible appointments for that day). My mom and sister got a few old piercings re-opened and a few new ones as well. Staff are great about explaining everything and were super careful about keeping everything clean, lots of hand washing, multiple sets of gloves, everything sealed and opened in front of you. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Tip: just because they only take walk-ins (unless it's a child's appointment) does not mean there is endless availability (especially on the weekends). When we visited they only had one piercer in, and early in the day filled up their queue and had to turn some folks away. So if you're driving a distance or can't come back another time your best bet is to wait for a weekday, or on the weekends arrive when they open and be willing to kill some time around town. Calling ahead probably wouldn't hurt either.

Although it was healing, it kept getting irritated and causing a red bump to come and almost go but never entirely. It turned out that the jewelry used was moving too much and was clearly too big.

It's been 6 days later and it looks so much better already, it's amazing. I am grateful and highly recommend.

This is a healed tattoo that I got from here a long time ago. I had a closer look after going to a…read moredifferent tattoo shop for a future coverup and the line work is pretty rough to say the least (which multiple shops agreed with me on). Some of the lines are fading horribly, too thin or way too dark, the leaves idek what to even say about those... and some of the lines are extremely uneven. I was recommended to do a coverup but a different tattoo shop bc of how bad this was but I tried to give it a chance to look half way decent. I even had my tattoo artist shade in the leaves and even then the line work just ruins it completely. Also not to mention I have 23 tattoos and all of them have healed perfectly and I have never had a single issue but this tattoo healed awful/caused itching where I thought I was going to get an infection. Not sure if the products used here are actually good quality or disinfected properly... Definitely getting a cover up in the future but good luck everyone else!

Debbie is horribly rude and judgy. Not someone I want near me with a needle again…read more She doesn't know what she's doing and her "bedside manner" is terrible. Got my labret done and she pierced it with a horse shoe, healed horribly and most painful piercing heal I've gone through. The horseshoe she used was also way too small and left no room for swelling. It ended up embedding in my lip. When I went in to ask for a bar like it should have been pierced with she told me how it heals better with a horse shoe and just opened it more. Would absolutely never go again!

After a few weeks of healing, I'm writing this review of Rowan's ear piercing service. We took our…read moresix-month-old daughter there in late January for her first ear piercing. The staff was incredibly accommodating and patient, which made the experience much smoother than we had anticipated. The location is conveniently situated in Cherry Creek North, but be prepared for potential parking issues. However, our overall experience was fantastic from the moment we walked in. They have a nice selection of earrings for the piercing devices, and they don't recommend or perform needle piercings for babies. The pricing was competitive, and the staff, including the nurse, was very patient and kind. The aftercare instructions were easy to follow, and we're keeping our daughter's ears clean, and they're healing wonderfully. One thing to note for parents considering getting their baby's ears pierced is that there's some aftercare involved to ensure proper healing. Overall, I found their prices to be quite competitive with the pediatrician's office for piercing, and their hours are great for working parents.

This was not the case when we had his first piercing from them where they sold us just 1 earring. So we purchased 2. The piercing was done and the nurse was lovely. When we paid, we were charged for a hand piercing which was not what we ordered, however it's what the nurse did. The sales person/cashier, who was very soft-spoken and hard to understand, asked if we wanted aftercare spray. I said ok and added a bottle to the bag. After paying much more than I expected to pay from all these extra charges, I got home and saw there were 2 bottles of spray in my bag. So I think she already put a bottle in my bag before asking if I wanted it? Our time in there saw waves of customers coming and going out so it was busy overall. I recommend the sales employees be better trained, pricing be clearly marked so there's less confusion, and the process be better streamlined so there are less chances for error. Our experience could've been much better than what we went through.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Nick did my tattoo and made the process so easy…read moreand memorable. I really feel like he actually cared about it and didn't see it as just another tattoo on another person. He took his time helping me design my vision and gave great advice and suggestions when I asked. I never felt he rushed any of it. It turned out even better than I could've imagined. This tattoo is in honor of my grandmother that unexpectedly passed, so it was going to be the most important tattoo I'd ever get. If you want a person that is going to listen to you and also genuinely care about you and the work they do, Nick is the guy! He's fabulous with colors. The shop itself is also clean and the owner is very friendly. I can't see myself ever going to anyone else in the future.

I followed the aftercare instructions to a T. Neither nostril formed an irritation bump, even after I switched the jewelry to hoops. The pain went away after like a week and a half, and after having them for a month I couldn't even feel them anymore. Changing them now is easy. I've accidentally brushed my face a few times, which caused the stud to fall out, but I've always just quickly disinfected the jewelry and wiped the piercing with saline before putting it back in. I don't remember the name of my piercer, but he was very nice and made the entire experience easy. This was not recommended by my piercer, but I've found it super helpful when it comes to healing piercings. On amazon, they have saline solution aftercare swabs (I have the Dr Piercing Aftercare brand ones). I carried those around with me for the entire time my piercings were healing and they made my life SO MUCH EASIER. Anyway. On February 10th, 2024, I came to this studio for their Valentine's Day flash tattoo sale. I got there around 1pm, and they let me know that it'd be a 3-4 hour wait. The girls at the front were so sweet and they had me write my name and phone number on a list so that I wouldn't have to wait at the shop the entire time. I got a call right at 5pm, drove over, did the paperwork and got the tattoos I wanted within the hour! Hailee Roach was my artist. She was awesome. She made the experience super relaxing, and answered all of my questions patiently. She mentioned that she does free touch ups, which is super considerate and I plan on going to her for the tattoos I plan on getting in the future! When I was getting tattooed, I could tell that the people working there genuinely enjoyed each other's company. The artists were talking and laughing together. The vibe is a little intimidating (at least for me) when you first walk in, but the staff is so friendly and I couldn't recommend this place more!
