I even came back to have them switch my jewelry out. They have the best of Jacksonville awards from 2020 to 2024 on the wall which made me feel confident in getting my piercings. I would definitely recommend anyone that is considering getting a piercing to come here. The only con I may have to ask is they did take some time to do my friend's jewelry change the last time I visited.

Sole is amazing!!! Started my tattoo journey fall last year with Sole and could not be happier with…read morethe end result. Our consultation was great, she answered all of my questions and gave me feedback on what to expect. We scheduled 4 sessions and finished my half sleeve in less than 4 which was great for me being that was traveling back and forth from Dallas, TX to JAX for each session. I had been following the shop for a few years prior to actually getting in touch with them to start the process. I brought all of my ideas of exactly what I wanted to my artist and she was very enthusiastic about the piece that I was considering. My first appointment came and I was extremely nervous since I hadn't had a tattoo in a long time especially that large. She showed me the sketch and I was in awe of the piece. It was exactly what I envisioned so we began. Sole put on some music, we talked, Ate food, watched my best friend fall asleep as I was getting tattooed, talked some more and had an overall great time. Aprox 5-6 hours later or maybe more we finished our first session in which honestly felt like it flew by. I think by her being so welcoming and just overall personality helped ease my nerves and make the whole process so much easier. We finished my tattoo after a few sessions and now that it's been a few months since I have gotten it I decided to write a review. Thanks Sole for everything and thank you Black Hive for being such a great shop!
