Mike was accommodating to all of our needs and questions…read more There are many tattoo shops (unfortunately) that are not adhering to COVID-19 precautions and thankfully, this place is NOT one of them. Patrons are required to wear masks, there is hand sanitizer clearly available, seats are wiped down in between sessions, and social distancing is practiced. So if safety is a concern from you, I think you will feel pretty safe here. I got my ears pierced and my best friend got a tattoo. I was scared to get my third piercing but Mike hit me with a motivational quote that changed my mind! "Pain is temporary" -- loved that but also, so true right?! My bff's tattoo was so cute, delicate, and neat. I will definitely be returning here in the future!

Carrie is kind, amazing and an excellent piercer! Also, bring cash for tip!…read more I stopped by 2 weeks ago on a Saturday (2/26). I called beforehand to ask about getting a tragus piercing, and was told to stop in during business hours. Note: There's some street parking available in front of the shop depending on the time of day you visit. I had no problem. Upon entering, the shop looked inviting and clean, and there is a couch to the left (super comfy btw). Carrie, my piercer, was in the back finishing up with a customer. I could tell it was going to be a good experience because the lady before me was laughing and chatting away with Carrie. I was given an iPad to complete some paperwork and provided my ID, and then was taken to the back of the room. She gave me a selection of jewelry to choose from and I picked one that I liked most. She completed the piercing, and here's where she earned 5 stars (if I could give her 10 stars, I would). I got up from my chair after she was done, and I was feeling faint (new experience for me, made me realize that I'm not 18 anymore). I asked her where the restroom was and she started to show me, but then asked me if I was feeling faint or like I was going to throw up. I told her yes, and she immediately brought me back to the piercing room and sat me down, elevating my legs. Then she applied cold compress on my neck and placed a fan near me. She kept talking to me and told me a story that I won't repeat here out of respect, and I could see that despite being a total stranger to me, she was such a compassionate person. After about 10-15 minutes, I felt so much better and was ready to get up and pay. I didn't have cash on me and couldn't leave a tip on the card, and you know what Carrie said? Without skipping a beat, she said it was okay and that the best tip was a positive review. And I could tell she was being so genuine. I left but I didn't feel right about not leaving a tip. The next day, I dropped off a thank you card and tip. She didn't remember me, which honestly made the experience that much more meaningful - she's just naturally that kind and cool that she didn't think anything of my situation. If you're looking to get pierced, come see Carrie!

During the initial consultation we went over position, design, dimensions and coloring. She was personable and showed extreme interest in making my body art perfect as if she was tattooing onto her own body. The day of my inking appointment again, CDC guideline, cleanliness and again extremely positive attitude. Her attention to detail was amazing, again as if it were going onto her own body. She made sure every line was straight, every bare spot was filled in and actually free handed my water coloring. She is an amazing and talented artist and I will definitely be coming back to the shop for more work in the future. Thank you Jenna and the Skin Alternative staff for an amazing experience.
