In July I booked an appointment with Shad Bossmans, told him what I wanted, watched him take notes,…read moreand paid the deposit required. Last week I reached out to him, curious about design ideas and artwork. He then informed me that not only did he not remember who I was but also that he didn't remember what I wanted. That did not inspire confidence in me, so I cancelled my appointment and demanded a refund of my deposit, since he had apparently done nothing to earn it. When I showed up to collect, he accused me of "gaslighting" and tried to make me feel like shit. Shad may be a good artist, but he is a shit person and an even worse salesman. Dodged a bullet in my opinion.

I came in here on a whim today because I needed a new nose hoop…read more A few years ago I stopped here and walked right back out because the guy at the counter had awful customer service skills and it seemed dingy in there. Apparently they are under new ownership because my experience today was a 180 positive! The minute I walked in, I could smell the reassuring scent of antiseptic, a huge plus. The man at the counter was on the phone, but politely told us he would be with us in a moment. I looked at a few of the artists' albums and was very impressed with the work I saw. As it turned out, the man helping us goes by Dr. Roach and was the artist whose work I'd looked at. I was impressed and told him as much! Doc Roach took the time to help me find the best hoop that was most similar to the one had in. The price of the jewelry spoke my language ($10) so I was game! I asked him if he would be able to replace it for me and he willingly obliged. Although it took more time than I am sure he had that day, Dr. Roach put the new hoop in for me. I took notice that he was meticulous about sterilizing everything he used on me. I was able to see him open all of his tools from their sterile packaging. He was patient and focused on what he was doing with little small talk other than to explain what he was doing while replacing the hoop! He was gentle handed so I had little pain and no bleeding, even when he had to use a taper to enlarge the hole for my new gauge. He and his staff wear scrubs and of course gloves while working with clients. Doc Roach was patient with my questions! When I asked how long he had been tattooing for, he let me know that he has been tattoing for 20 years! I have a photo in mind that I may want as a tattoo and he walked me through basic pricing for it! I will definitely be returning for future work!

I had a tattoo done elsewhere that didn't set well. The colors were faded and poorly distinguished…read more So I set up an appointment with Roachzilla to touch it up. Before I came to the appointment he explained what had been done wrong the first time and showed me a drawing of how he would improve it. He booked me for a two hour appointment and because of his thorough and painstaking work he actually spent closer to three hours on it to do it right. After a week it has healed nicely and the colors are vibrant. With a lifetime free touch up guarantee I couldn't be more thrilled. I'll be getting my next one here!

I went yesterday for my 3rd tattoo by Jim he's done all 3 one of which was a full back piece that…read morewas also a coverup for a piece I got when I was a dumb 18 year old.

In the…read moreweeks leading up to my appointment, I, personally, played around on the internet to see if I could come up with a design that I liked, as I'm a visual person and wanted to see it in front of me. However, I just couldn't tell a computer program what I was envisioning in my head. I walked into the studio and saw the design Laura had drawn up and had a light bulb moment! Her design was EXACTLY what I had wanted...I just didn't know it until I saw it! We discussed placement options and the stencil she had ready to go was the perfect size for where we decided it was going. Laura answered all of my questions and we had a nice balance of chit chat and silence during my session. Her space is GORGEOUS and welcoming, overlooking the river and a small park. My piece was done in about an hour and aftercare was explained verbally and I was given a handout. I told her I was sensitive to adhesive and she suggested an alternative form of wrapping that would protect both my skin and the tattoo. Now that it is summer, I intentionally wear tank tops all the time to show off the beautiful artwork that means so much to me! This is my third tattoo by just as many artists and I will 100% be going back to Laura for my future ink!

One of my best investments until it abruptly ended. Please know this is not intended to sabotage- rather share my story and hope change occurs as a result. Always something to learn. ~ The day I signed the waiver form, I could've done it blindly as I didn't imagine anything bad happening. Almost a year later, I woke up w/o "rose-colored glasses". And honestly, I was a bit horrified. * First, rewind to the beginning- I start my 2-week routine of going in for my lash fill w/ my lash lady, Asia. Know that I always enjoyed my appointments- I trusted and knew Asia would bring my lashes back to life. During my appointments, Asia and I had a lot of great conversations, and laughs. Easy to talk to. (And I was a good client- arrived on time and tipped well.) No complaints. After a while, we both noticed my lashes seemed to fall out sooner vs other clients. Asia tried different adhesive on me to no avail. We were coming up on almost a year of me receiving lash extensions. I had a minor, allergic reaction around my eye shortly after one of our appts. Know that I don't have allergies to really anything. I had no reason to believe it was from the adhesive, as Asia usually told me if she changed it. I went to my doc clueless to what was causing my itchiness and dryness around my eyes. After my doctor appointment, I texted Asia and she told me she tried more powerful "super" adhesive (later learned is called Lethal). BINGO. My itchiness and dryness came from this Lethal. Asia thought I could use my usual adhesive again, on our regular 2-week schedule. No. Was also the guinea pig for Asia. I was the first client she ever had w/ a reaction. Within one day- I woke up (SEE PICTURES) to my horror w/ puffed up, balloon-like eyelids. Cue in SUPER puffiness, dryness and itchiness. Puffiness went down significantly after I showered. Dryness & itchiness on and on. Not fun. I texted Asia that Sunday. She shared my lashes would need to be removed asap- but would have to be done by Kim (Asia wasn't trained to remove them). I texted Kim, and she surprisingly forwarded me a DIY YouTube link to remove my lashes using coconut oil. I did a little research to find - it was best to have them professionally removed within 24 hours. But that wasn't going to be the case here. I didn't enjoy having to pay for coconut oil and go into a public store after looking like I was just beat up. I did it- but even the Youtuber instructions were a bit ambiguous. I hoped (assumed too soon), as a good service provider, Kim would reimburse me or offer a discount for a future visit. She said the time and money was already spent. I wasn't getting a penny back or any incentive to come back. Over the course of several weeks, I spent $300 out of pocket to treat my symptoms w/ hydocortisone cream/steroid pills from my doctor to the dermatologist office. As a result of this adhesive and missing the warning signs, my under-eye area now has additional wrinkles. I haven't found a cost-effective solution yet to cure and remove them. Good news is that my natural lashes are now mostly grown back- thanks to an off-counter lash serum. * I knew and didn't expect my out of pocket expenses to be covered-I'm sure somewhere in the 1-page (?) contract I blindly signed off on, states in understanding the risk of getting lash extensions. BUT I was disappointed in the lack of service. No money back. No coupon. No free lash removal. Asia told me I could come in for a lash test again, but that's unlikely. (I do miss my talks w/ Asia.) What I do ask for/take-aways: -better training in (possible future) lash trained employees (recognize warning signs) -if removal must be done, offer half or full reimbursement of service as an apology for the unfortunate outcome. AND/OR a discount for coming back to give it another try. -remove the lashes at the salon by trained professional, free of charge
