Walt is amazing at his job. I have always heard great things about Bay Street tattoo/piercing and I…read morealso like to support women owned businesses. Walt is professional, calm, patient, and a wonderful conversationalist. He took time to truly listen and make sure my friend and I were happy and comfortable with every stage of the tattoo process. Prices are reasonable for the quality of the work done. The shop is clean, cool, and very inviting. There is also a parking lot, which is a huge surprise in Bay View! If you're thinking about getting pierced or tattooed, I highly recommend starting here.

So I'm not exactly a body jewelry enthusiast and I'm still too scared to pierce my belly but I do…read morehave my nose pierced and have friends and family with tons of piercings. The owner Heidi is really friendly and explains everything to you. I didn't even buy anything the first two times I went there. She remembered my name which was cool and a couple times during our transaction a few groups of girls yelled hello to her so I'm assuming she's well liked. If you want any type of body jewelry that isn't Spencer's or Hot Topic garbage she has it! If you want that small business customer service and charm then shop with Heidi and her fiancé. It's not often you find people willing to really help you anymore! Good luck to them! Lets just pray my nose ring doesn't fall out....

I originally went to Black Sheep Tattoo on a whim for a walk-in tattoo and Frit was able to help me…read moreout! I got a cute little ghost tattoo (which now has cowboy boots and a cowboy hat and his name is Gerard) and immediately worked on scheduling another appointment in the future for a spine/back tattoo. Frit was amazing and came up with an absolutely gorgeous design (even though I was not much help in giving ideas, sorry Frit!!). Never once did she make me feel bad or like a burden when I asked for things to be tweaked/changed, and when we finally got a design agreed on, we started with the first session and got all of the line work knocked out. After two more sessions, we got the shading and detail all done as well and it looks absolutely killer! Frit is super easy going and fun to spend full 8 hour sessions with so it isn't boring/awkward/etc. and I'm so glad I came in that first day for a random tattoo so I could find my forever artist! Thank you Frit for always doing an amazing job, and I can't wait for many more tattoos to come!

I've removed 2 stars for 2 complaints: 1. VERY long wait time.. I can understand though, there were…read morea lot of people there and not many staff to tend to everyone. 2. Staff complaining about their job in front of customers.. this goes without explanation, I don't think bad-mouthing your boss is very professional. Bonus complaint for the construction zone in the middle of the place, with plaster all over the floor and the ceiling falling apart, it's not a very professional looking place. Other than that, I had a great experience with the piercing itself. The staff who spoke to me about the piercing I was getting was very knowledgeable and made sure I understood all of the risks of my choice of piercing. The piercer herself was very kind and did a fantastic job with the piercing and making sure I was comfortable and knew how to take care of it. This was my third time getting pierced here (after quite awhile), and the quality of the experience had definitely gone down this time. I would go again, but hopefully they get a few things under control to make the experience better.

My mom, daughter, and I got matching tattoos at Atomic Tattoos, and overall, we had a decent…read moreexperience.** I called ahead, and it was great that they were able to fit all three of us in on short notice, especially after 6 PM, which was really convenient. When I called, they mentioned a $100 minimum, but I didn't confirm whether that applied to each of us individually. We were all getting the same tiny ladybug tattoo in honor of my grandma who passed away. From previous experiences at other places, I've sometimes seen the price adjusted for small, matching tattoos done in a group. That was my mistake for not clarifying, so we ended up spending $300 total. While the tattoos were done quickly and turned out well, I honestly don't think the small, simple design was worth $100 per person. The shop was clean, and the service was good, but I wouldn't recommend going here for something as small as we got.

Don't at all come here for a piercing what so ever. I got a lower helix and the piercer dropped the…read moreclamp and it was a painful experience considering I've gotten many piercings (much more intense than a helix). She also didn't tell me what jewelry she was going to install, now there is a gem into my ear. I really, really dislike the gem but I can't change it and now I'm stuck with it-I'm upset about this . I also really dislike the placement where I got the piercing, I could have advised against it but she convinced me otherwise and I kind of hate the placement and immediately regret it. They install titanium jewelry which is great but don't come here for a piercing if you value choosing what jewelry you have and professionalism. Maybe other piercers are more equip for this service but I don't recommend going here, please do research and choose somewhere else. She didn't even introduce her name to me but my piercer was female identifying with gauges. Please DO NOT get a piercing by anyone complimentary to this description PLEASE! Two days later update- I had to get this removed because it was so crooked and I was concerned about getting an infection!! Save yourself and be safe!! Also the piercing she did is absolutely horrible, it's uneven and crooked. PLEASE DONT GO HERE!!!!!
