Not the best service. My tattoo artist was more concerned about his conversations with the people I…read morewas with than actually my tattoo that I will wear forever. I asked him to put a heart as the nose for my dog tattoo and he said he would add it after. He never did. I mention it twice and he talked right over me. I was annoyed and just wanted to leave. My tattoo just never felt done because I never got my nose heart. So I contacted him less then a week about it and asked him to add what I originally asked for in the first place. he said I have to get another 100 dollars.... Umm NO thank you! I am not going to pay him another 100 for the tiniest little heart nose that he should have done in the first place... So I'm going back to Spider Murphy. Artist- Shannon

My 6.5 yr old daughter got her ears pierced by Sean and he is so good with the kiddos. So calm and gentle. It was the coolest experience for my girl. She wasn't nervous at all. To have been there twice ever and 4 months apart, it was very special to walk in the second time and have him remember us and remember the details of our first visit shows how much care and attention they put into their craft. Thank you Nomad. We'll be back for more!

We had a really good experience getting our piercings done here. I got both a cartilage and an…read moreearlobe piercing, and my husband got his earlobe pierced as well. I really appreciated that they used a needle instead of a piercing gun--it felt much more precise, and the process was quick and smoother than I expected. It wasn't nearly as painful as I had anticipated. The staff was professional and welcoming, and you can tell they know what they're doing. There was a steady line of people waiting, which honestly made us feel even more confident that we chose a reputable place. The only downside for me was the pricing. Since you choose your jewelry at the time of the piercing, the overall cost can add up quickly, and many of the options leaned toward the higher end. Overall though, great service and a clean, professional experience. I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking to get a piercing done right.

I had a very good experience here with my first tattoo and a piercing. However, my tattoo has a…read morebunch of weird white bumps on it now - who's to say whether it's from the ink or it's just my skin? However, the tattoos I have gotten from other places do not have these bumps. The next tattoo I got was also good, however the same white bumps appeared a few months later. The NEXT tattoo I got was a disaster. It was immediately infected with staph., which I initially thought was because my dog had touched it or something. However, after speaking with two doctors and a dermatologist, I found out that it was so bad that the only way it could have entered my body was while I was being tattooed. What was the reaction from the staff members? I talked to the tattoo artist and he said that he was sorry and hoped that I recovered quickly, but I NEVER heard ANYTHING from him again. I posted pictures on Facebook of what had happened but did not blame the shop or artist, and didn't actually provide any identifying information about where I had gotten the tattoo - I just wanted to share the horror with my friends since I was such a shitty situation. In return, I was asked by a staff member (not the owner, not a manager, not either of the people who had given me tattoos, nor the person who pierced me, but a different person who had never provided me with a service) to take the picture down since it "made them look bad". He was polite about it and apologized for what had happened to me and thanked me for taking it down. The next time I went in, about a week later, one staff member asked to leave the shop because it was seen as unsanitary. No one contacted me after this exchange. Because no one contacted me again, I was never able to tell them what the doctors had told me, which was that the infection entered my body while I was being tattooed. Although I had good experiences here, almost losing a limb was more than enough for me to NEVER return here.
