Great job on my tattoo had recommendations ready for me when I came in. Came out exactly like I…read morewanted. Really clean shop. Everyone in the shop was very cool to hang with for a couple hours which is what you're signing up for. You have to spend a few hours with an artist so it's cool when they are someone you enjoyed being around for that time. Thanks a lot

I got a crown (I know, so original) & not a single line is straight or uniform. The arches Look more like deformed dolphins & the tip of a crown looks like a d!ck & balls... also I was cut to all hell on this one. Save yourself the misery and research your tattoo artist/shop. Also, put this one on your DO NOT GO IN list.

On top of my tattoo's I was having problems switching my nose ring, that I had gotten somewhere else, and Bill was very willing to help & show me what I was doing wrong. I would absolutely recommend Shades of Sunderland!

I switched to Artistic Hair Design a few years ago because their prices are very reasonable. I…read morehave been very pleased with the service. The quality of their work easily matches and goes beyond what I received at high price salons. Amy listens to my desires and knows which products are right for me. Her expertise and experience have served me well as I always get compliments about my cut and color. I highly recommend Artistic Hair Design for the quality of their work, the friendliness, and their reasonable prices.

I went to Stix n Studs to get it fixed (a friend highly recommended it) and he replaced my earring, cleaned my piercing and thoroughly went through how to do the aftercare.

Today I went there out of impulse for my ears to be pierced (Helix and earlobes). I have pierced my…read morehelix twice prior and i needed to move my second earlobe piercing higher because of the type of earring i wear were overlapping. I would have to say that this is the first time ever! That i got my ear pierced and barely felt any pain. Not even a pinch. Steve was great, kind, informative and overall made sure i was comfortable. Environment very clean. Def coming back for more piercing. I am still in shock that my ear still doesn't hurt as i am laying on them to go to bed. Would recommend this place to anyone.

This place is very clean! However I called and asked if I could have somebody do some writing, and…read morewhoever could do the best writing could work on my arm. some guy named "z" shorter heavier darker skin said he would do it. I didn't ask for the worst artist when I called , he wrote cursive and did my R wrong and also dug into my skin to fix a mistake that now has the tattoo faded. If anyone needs writing do not go to Z he was smokin a weed pen so he was probably high when he did it. Bad bad bad work

this place at all costs! I went in to ask if they could order me specific gems on white gold posts…read moreand they put them in for me. I already had two piercings with butterfly backs but no one mentioned there is a different kind of back now where you screw a microscopic post into a tiny hole. I had to take them out for an MRI and can't get them back in because I have paralysis in my thumbs and arthritis in my hands. I called to see if they could exchange them for the type I wanted because I can't use these and he got very defensive. He kept telling me he has a client with 4 fingers and only one hand so my disability shouldn't be a problem. If he can overcome his then surely I should overcome mine, he insisted. I felt like I was talking to a child. There was no apology for the miscommunication, no offer to try to reorder them or take them back or even issue some kind of credit. He just kept blaming me, saying I should have asked when I came in wearing butterflies and having no idea these others existed. The bottom line: They don't take an ounce of responsibility for anything and are incredibly rude to someone who spent hundreds of dollars on something she can't use. Telling me I am wrong about my disability and insisting I can pay them to teach me to do it was the icing on the cake. You don't tell a disabled person that their disability isn't real and they can do something they can't if they really wanted to. I would rather pierce my own ear with a rusty nail than set foot in this scam of a place again.

I learned my lesson a few years ago when I got my second lobe piercings done somewhere else & they were done totally unevenly - it was like the universe telling me to take my ass back to Rockstar. I've gotten new piercings, old piercings re-pierced, jewelry changed out, bits & bobs tightened, professional guidance on piercings, & more at Rockstar Body Piercing. They always do a great job. Know that you'll be paying a pretty penny here but it will absolutely be worth it.

Ladies at the counter are so…read morenice, providing great customer service from calling in to keeping you informed on next steps. The shop is clean and well maintained. My nose piercing accidentally fell out and I had bought the jewelry from Rockstar years ago. They put it back in for $10 and it took 2mins. Keep in mind: they do need to sanitize the jewelry which is a 15min wait time before you get seen. Meh comments: on street parking and some sketch characters wandering about. May have to hunt for parking. May get cussed at for no reason by a rando.

After checking us both he advised my friend to go for an alternate piercing to ensure better success since her daith was not as pronounced, they settled on her rook. My piercing was quick with minimal pain. He provided after care and instructions should we have any issue. He also helped me remove a healed bar from my conch and add a new hoop. My experience was genuinely positive. Greg is consummate professional, taking his trade seriously and I would absolutely recommend this establishment to anyone.

Spent $100 on two flavored vape carts that didn't work and was left with a tough luck with my purchase. No exchange no refund. Besides that experience he also blatantly ignored myself and two other customers while he chatted on the phone. When he hung up he told the person he had people he had to "deal with" as if we were there disrupting his lack of work. And when I asked about the vape carts, he slammed a book down on the counter without a word and walked away irritated. Not sure why this place has 4.5 stars.
