First and foremost, I am a kind person and love tattoos and piercings. I had spoken with a couple…read moreartist from the princeton location and they seem great! However, my Husband and I have had several bad experiences with the Beckley location in the mall. First: My husband bought me a 100$ set of titanium diamond Labre and septum jewelry and the diamond in the Labre ring turned a nasty yellow color with in just a couple weeks after cleaning it and wearing everyday use. Second: My husband wanted my name tatted and the guy said I'll charge you 300$ to ruin your life, and then 800$ to cover it back up in a couple months. Third: Yesterday, I went into the mall and I was excited to see Haley because she did some work on my husband and it looks incredible she even fixed his first tattoo that I got for him that was special to us. I was asking about my daughter getting her ears pierced and they said around 55$ cool. When they brought up Titanium I mentioned my first experience with them. Haley specifically stated " welp, thats not our fucking problem" and started to walk out. I saw her again and tried to talk to her and the conversation escalated. I am not a violent person, but she's supposed to be a professional. You can't disrespect someone and not expect to get it right back, the atmosphere here sucks, they over charge and they have shit attitudes..... If you want to go somewhere your time money and self are valued and respected, check out Moncove Tattoo in Union, Chris Hudson from the Charleston WV area, and even Agony on Harper rd, in Beckley wv. My husband said Haley and other people in the shop were rude to mother customers the day he was getting his tattoos, he only stayed because he said they didn't treat him that way. but why would they when it is guaranteed money... DO BETTER! YOU WANT RESPECT GIVE IT!!! XOXO Holly. Yup the one who called you out at the mall I hope people really see your true colors, and calling someone fat and judging them on there clothes where you look like you rolled out of bed is very classy baby doll. (hugs)

First tattoo ever. Huge blowout. I do believe that when you own a business you should stand behind…read moreyour employees and the product they put out . I did not find that to be the case here . I went in to see if they could fix the blowout and was told the person who did it could well I'm sorry that wasn't going to happen I mean one blowout to me is more than enough. I was told if I wanted to see someone else I'd need to go online and make the appointment. Don't understand that I mean I'm right in the shop your employee made the mistake why wouldn't you make it right . And I'm sorry no I didn't wish to see the same person. I work in the public and costumer service means a lot and I didn't find any kind of costumer service or any kind of standing behind your employees products. Didn't seem to care about putting out a bad job . Definitely wouldn't recommend this shop .

My daughter and I were here in March. I'm ok with my two very simple, very small tattoos - my…read moredaughter is happy with hers. The problem arose after we left - I was driving through Charlotte, trying to get to the airport. Someone from the studio called my cell phone saying that the tattoo artist who checked us out had made a mistake and had charged us for the tattoos but had not added the tip as I requested. I explained that I was driving in heavy traffic in an area I was unfamiliar with and I would call them back. Multiple phone calls/voicemails/emails and a letter (!!!!) later, they're threatening to take me to court .... for the TIP - that they made the mistake in not charging to my Visa card. I had every intention of calling them back to authorize an additional transaction to cover a tip but their uber-aggressive approach to the problem (which they totally created) has me in the "fine - you want to go to court? File in Minnesota where I live and let's talk to a judge about you adding interest onto a TIP -- and demanding that I pay you a tip at all. (Never threaten an attorney with legal action because you screwed up a transaction and didn't get your tip.)

I previously had my septum done and had perfect placement. Unfortunately, this time it was placed way below where I initially had it as well as just being crooked.

Additionally, my friend had gotten her third lobes pierced which weren't even the slightest bit symmetrical. The piercer was very friendly but unfortunately not efficient.
