My SIL got a TOKER POKER beaker bong with flowers. Great pricing! We had an issue with trying to get an estimate and our appts made . We *thought* we had an appt at 5 PM for 2 tattoos, BUT the worker we were texting was not working and no one knew about our appt . This was frustrating, BUT I'm glad we stayed and got our tattoos because John is PRETTY FABULOUS with his lines!

Now the son of the owner runs the place and apparently he allowed a guest artist to come in and do a Nazi tattoo in their shop. There used to be a time when asking for this kind of thing would get you tossed out of a shop at a minimum and artists would be blackballed from the scene. Totally unacceptable, Jesse.

Battle Born is the best! I've been going to the owner, Archie, for a number of years and he is…read moreamazing! The parlor is clean, and large with a nice waiting area and a zen entrance with beautiful Koi. It has amazing artwork on the walls and a great vibe. Archie specializes in Traditional Japanese and he also does incredibly lifelike animal realism tattoos from portraits. He has a varied and talented array of artists, so you will be able to find someone who specializes in the body art you want. They take appointments and walk-ins, but no credit cards. Cash app, Venmo, Zelle or cash. They do have an onsite ATM for convenience. There is a Friday the 13th first come, first served flash event. Follow them on social media to see work from the artists and upcoming events. Located in midtown with a shared parking lot and on street parking as well. I wouldn't go anywhere else for a tattoo!

My daughter is autistic but had been wanting a tattoo for forever. Alexx was so patient and kind, as well as the others. When my daughter got lightheaded, another artist gave up his candy for her.

So much so, that a couple months later, my daughter went back for another one. 10/10 I recommend them to everyone.

This tattoo also didn't hurt as much as previous tats I've had... he was gentle and a great guy! Best wishes to Nico, his wife and new son! Thanks so much love my new tattoo!

The atmosphere was lovely but it wasn't just the plants, light and music but Alexx and her ability to make me feel comfortable and secure. We spent ample time on my placement.

She is the perfect artist for me as I love black and grey and surrealistic artwork. I cannot wait to go back to her for all my future tattoos and to delve into her realism work as it truly is so impeccable. She has the lightest touch I've ever experienced while being tattooed and my healing process was exceptionally easy. I'm officially a fan!

I'd like to start off with, I as a customer do not need to talk to a manager/owner to manage my…read moreexperience at their place of business. Especially if those experiences are integrated into their piercing practices as a whole. I as everybody else have the right to my opinion and what happened to us in their place of business. Here's a couple red flags I've noticed throughout the appointment. 1. They did not check the form for allergies nor did the front desk person tell the body piercer about the allergies that my friend who got pierced expressed to them about Latex. Mistakes happen but can be something that depending on the persons severity to the allergy could harm somebody. 2. They use the same marker on multiple clients, they claim to "sterilize" it by soaking it in a chemical but the marker touching multiple people on their skin is unsanitary even if they do alcohol the persons body before placing the mark. 3. The piercer had an open energy drink in their room, non water drinks in a "sterile" environment are unsanitary. 4. When they reset up the tray after laying latex gloves on it, they chemically treated the tray again however didn't wear gloves when laying down the cover for the tray and other items. 5. The piercer after piercing my friends lip ran the used needle back through the fresh hole to transfer the jewelry rather than use a taper, this is painful to the person getting pierced and also dangerous to the piercer if somehow they accidentally get poked with it. Once a needle is used it should not be put back in through the persons body, it's just pure gross. When asked if it was possible for them to use a taper they simply stated that they were not trained that way. 6. They do not use saline solution/clean your piercing after piercing you, they will apply dry cotton swabs and dry paper to your piercing to stop the bleeding. It's unnerving that they do not provide this kind of aftercare, not only is a fresh piercing in need of some kind of moisture but rubbing a dry cotton on it is super irritating. They will tell you to use antibacterial soap on the outside and give you some salt in a cup to make your own saline at the end of the appointment. I'd like to share that this studio has some things about it that make it charming, the overall ambiance is old school tattoo parlor with beautiful pin ups everywhere. Knowing the price point of the this studio with their jewelry included "surgical steel", you genuinely get what you pay for which is as the consumer I can take full responsibility for. Everybody has the right to perform SAFE and ETHICAL body art, at this studio it's very straight to the point. They were upfront about the pricing and the jewelry they used when asked. Customer service isn't a priority here, I could tell that the person in the front didn't have her heart in the practice of body art or the customers safety in mind. The piercer was kind and reassuring, I could tell she was a little annoyed when I asked lots of questions and asked for alternative methods. After asking about the marker they were quick to give me an answer as to why it's "okay" rather than offer a different solution when they would tell we were second guessing the experience. This made us feel like this business wasn't open to feedback nor willing to "hear it". It's hard to see the business owner be unkind to people who have had negative experiences in their business, if this is type of business you run should be accepting of this feedback and tell people straight up "you get what you paid for" rather than ask they speak with you first before leaving a bad review. I'm sorry that our experience was so poor, hopefully in the future this studio can improve and make the changes to keep their customers safe.
