Just don't do it. Unprofessional and a little uncomfortable also for a group of three women.

yeah man.. you'll get an infection if you get pierced here, unfortunate true story.... rush you through the process.. pierce you with the wrong jewelry... yeah.. read more

Went in to get my sisters nose pierced and also got some piercings myself. Chuck was super cool and walked us through everything we needed to know. Everything was also very clean and sterilized, will be back for more! read more

I had an amazing experience getting pierced. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The wait was a bit long but I went on a Wednesday when they have special pricing on piercings. The artist was very friendly, respectful and most importantly professional. The environment was clean, comfortable, and private. It was my first piercing, but I felt very comfortable since both the receptionist and artist talked me through what to expect and what the level of pain I would experience. I got hoops rather than bars, which I preferred despite what others have posted. While waiting I spoke with multiple repeat customers who were also very happy with the artist and the experience at the shop. read more

Man was very rude. Went in for a nose piercing and he Asked if I wanted a stud or something else and I told him I didn't know what a stud was, he responds with "What do they teach you in school" he said this twice throughout the experience . He stopped and left needle in my nose and talked to the people I was with. Told me the last time I had them done they did it wrong and it was a bad choice to go there. VERY RUDE read more

For some background, I am a 19 year old and have been getting piercings since I was 14 years old. I have been to multiple piercing shops to get pierced and whenever I have asked to get pierced with a hood, all of the piercers have told me that piercing with a hoop leads to a greater risk of infection since the hoop tends to move more than a standard barbell and the piercing itself will heal curved rather than straight. My nose was done with stud, my conch was done with a stud, and my cartilage piercings were done with a stud because all of my piercers have refused to pierce me with a hoop due to these reasons. I went in to City Line to get my nipples pierced by myself and I was extremely nervous off the bat. Two girls were already there who were waiting for the tattoo artist to get to the shop, and eventually left because they had been waiting for a while. I don't know his name, but the only person in the shop besides the receptionist was a larger guy with glasses who was doing piercings on Wednesday, February 22nd. When the receptionist told this guy that the girls had left, the guy said "whatever" and walked away. This was the first thing that raised a red flag to me. Then I got called back to get pierced and the piercer said "Just so you know, I pierce with hoops and not barbells." He did not say this casually, he sounded almost annoyed and demanding. I then told him about what previous piercers have said, along with what I read online. Every article I have read online clearly states that nipple piercings should be done with straight barbells and not hoops for the same reasons that my previous piercers have stated. The piercer then proceeds to tell me "I don't know who you have been to, but they are wrong." He then went on a whole tangent about why hoops are better and the entire time he was speaking in a condescending tone. He finishes his rant by saying "I have people waiting." I responded by saying that I needed to think about this for a week and that I may come back if I decide this is what I want. Another comment he made was that he's "not selling jewelry, he's selling piercings." Every piercer I have been to has told me the same thing, online articles and forums say the same thing, and this is the first guy to tell me otherwise. I understand that people have different ways of doing things, but besides that point, the way he spoke to me was very disrespectful and did not make me feel safe getting pierced there. read more

Went in with a stuffed animal picture to be drawn into a tattoo and it was no problem at all. Tony did a great job and made sure it was want I wanted. He made it look better than expected! Love the end result! I also got my cartlidge pierced here with no problems at all. Everything is sterile and kept clean. I plan on going back in a few weeks for another tattoo to be done :) read more

City Line Tattoo - Love my tattoo! - Tattoo Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Worst decision ever to get my nipples pierced here. First the guy who had done it practically made fun of me. Then, I had almost fainted so I sat down but he made me sit there for 45 minutes while I was completely naked from the waist up. I have never felt more uncomfortable. When he finally did it, he told me my nipples were "not strong enough" for bars so he put rings in. My piercings were constantly crusting up. It wasn't until I went to Baileys tattoos that I found out you shouldn't start with rings because the piercing curves and such. Baileys put bars in and my piercings have never looked healthier. They feel so much better and I haven't had an issue since. I cannot stress enough how much you SHOULD NOT go here. read more

This shop was horrible. There were mouse droppings. The owner was extremely disrespectful And kept trying to say inappropriate things. Don't recommend going here, would give a 0 star if I could. read more

This was a clean shop but Brandon, the artist, is not very good. He rushed the outline of the cross i chose. Moreover he put it on crooked the first time. The second time after looking it over and asking others. It is not symmetrical and still crooked. His work was rushed, blotchy, and overpriced. If you cant do simple, dont do anything. Someone actually said " you paid for that?!" read more

I had a review removed because it didn't provide enough detail. I believe that it was removed because I have it a poor rating. So here's a better review. I had 2 tattoos done at city line,both by the same person. The tattoos came out fine since they were just learning. I didn't really like the place at all, it didn't at all sterile. You have 3 tattooing chairs right near each other. The artist I went to doesn't work there anymore, and the other one that was their also left. That tells you how that shop is. The pricing was ok, I felt bad that the shop took so much and you kind a have to give extra for the artist. A $90 tattoo would be split about 60/40. read more

I came with a friend who got her nipples pierced and I got an intimate piercing. Wayne was horrible (extremely rude, condescending... not knowledgeable of his craft). First he chastised me regarding my choice --- vertical clit hood (he said no one does that- it's only horizontal). I should have walked out right then. He didn't ask about types of rings, and I ended up with a severe infection/reaction. I had to go to Addictive Expressions to get it removed. They were horrified and reminded me that I could have lost all sensation since he did it completely wrong. The technique was not even remotely correct. How dare he perform it if he didn't know what he was doing and risk my own safety because of his EGO! My friend's nipple rings were also crooked, but she was not going to go through that again! He's sloppy! And the expense and humiliation of all of that! I have been to 2 tattoo/piercing parlors since this incident, where I felt so violated. I am so grateful to say that Live Canvas (LaPlace, La) Jessica was fantastic! Addictive Expressions was so professional (Lancaster, Pa)! I am about to get daith piercings, now. Obviously forget Cityline, I wouldn't trust them. read more

AWFUL DOESNT EVEN DESCRIBE MY EXPERIENCE. Went for a tattoo, a simple one at that, with my 3 friends. Was given Ian. Who claimed he's been there for a year and has done all these tattoos (which were just tracings cause the pics of them were elsewhere I saw). Well up front my sister mention to Wayne that the lines are horribly uneven. And what did Wayne say? Oh he's the APPRENTICE of the OWNER. (Owner was not there either) and it'll be even when he does the shading. Wrong. The whole tattoo is screwed up completely and will not look how I want it to either way. Not to mention this awful tattoo is on my chest so it's not the easiest of places to hide. SO I emailed Wayne who was there and his response to my complaint was that he is an apprentice, he was nervous because of the ONE person I had sitting with me. But he'd gladly fix it but since he's not getting anything out of it, he wants my friends to come back to him. Then I asked why wasn't I told he was still learning and Wayne said its not his responsibility cause ITS NOT HIS APPRENTICE and I could talk to the owner if I liked and gave me his email. So I messaged the owner, obviously freaking out cause I have a screwed up tattoo in plain sight and the OWNER responded with attitude, didn't really care about my tattoo and that whoever said he's an apprentice will be talked to if they were in the shop cause that's a lie (mmmmhmmmm) and the rest of the email was about taking off my 1 star review off Facebook cause it doesn't look good for business. even if he didn't care about my fucked up tattoo personally he could at least PRETENDED to care about his shop. And due to his stupid remarks and dick-ish-ness, I'm posting a bad review on every page I can. (Oh and needless to say my friends walked out and refused to have their body screwed up as well)Search google reviews for this place for a great example of this owner's piss poor attitude towards customers. Do not waste your money here for the love of all things holy. read more

See all

I've had one piercing and one tattoo done here. The owner Wayne did both of them. When I first went in for my piercing, on a $20 piercing day, I felt out of place as soon as I set foot in the shop. I felt like I didnt belong there because of the attitude he puts off it feels like you are trespassing on his terroritory. He was very brusque, almost to the point of rudeness. My piercing was just fine, healed well and still looks great. BUT he did not ask me or my friend what kind of ring we would've liked to wear in our fresh piercings and instead picked them out himself. This bothered my friend more than I, as hers was an eyebrow ring and mine an ear piercing. Still, it was very inconsiderate. I decided to give it another go here, thinking I just caught him on an off day. Boy, was I wrong. He must have a consistent off day. When I went back for my tattoo, again, the same feelings of uneasiness as soon as I walked in. I was nervous the entire time because Wayne does not like to talk much, and again extremely brusque. There are some minor mistakes in my tat I would love to have fixed, but I won't be returning here for it. My advice to you is to skip the cheap piercing day and get your tats elsewhere. When I go for a tattoo or piercing, I am looking for someone who genuinely wants to give you the best experience possible. This is not the case here. Get in, get out. Lancaster is full of much better and friendlier tattoo shops. Sorry for the novel!! read more

I got nipple piercings here. The place seemed clean and the piercings were well done, but the piercer (who I believe was the owner) made some unprofessional and inappropriate remarks that made me very uncomfortable. If I had not had a friend there I would have been frightened. I will not go back. read more

Wow talk about zero personality on the phone! Geez! not even a goodbye,just hung up. I wouldn't be caught dead in this place! If they care so little about how they treat you on the phone why would I ever let them touch my body????? read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE. Good vibes, I got my nips done here with a couple friends who got there nose and belly button done. Clean and professional

After showing the artist what I wanted, he managed to misspell the lettering on my tattoo and then after I realized this, he did not call me back after I left multiple messages. I will never go there again and I hope that I can get this fixed somewhere else. read more

I have had my nipples, tongue frenulum, nostril, and septum pierced here. The last time I was there, I got both my septum and both nipples done in the same session. My septum piercing is slightly crooked. My septum is only a tiny bit deviated, barely noticeable. And I've had it pierced at a different shop before and it was completely straight. So she just pierced in crooked. And for my nipple piercings, the right one is off-center. It's crooked and does not go to the base of the nipple on one side. Also, she pierced them with captive bead rings. You are NEVER supposed to pierced nipples with circular jewelry - only straight barbells. The healing process was rough, as it was the wrong kind of jewelry. I requested to have straight barbells instead before she pierced me. She told me no and that they only use circular barbells. I should have walked out as soon as she said that. It pulls down on the flesh on the sides of your nipples and twists way too much, which causes microscopic tears to your healing fistula. Maddy, the piercer, was friendly and all, but definitely screwed up my piercings. NOT going here ever again. Plus, the owner was extremely rude to my friend and said that she was asking "stupid questions". What the hell kind of customer service is that? read more

Now don't get me wrong, my piercing is fine and fully healed, but if I could hangs where I went I would! Immediately as u walk in the owner has the worst attitude. If that's not enough, while getting my piercing I ask to count to three before sticking in the needle. Now most piercer's would acknowledge their patients requests, but instead he says no and stabs it in. Then he takes a tounge depresser and is shoving it up my nose to move the screw. (I was getting a regular nose piercing) now I understand most people use a Popsicle stick in your now while piercing it but after the jewelry was already in he was taking in and jabbing it up my now and I said how that hurts and she said,so what. He could have been MUCH more gentle and considerate. I also think it would be much smarter for him to use a q-tip for many reasons. Over all the service was rude and horrible. NEVER GOING BACK, go to tattoing by mee instead he is VERY nice . But do NOT go here read more
