Came in last minute for a quick walk in to get a conch ear piercing and was immediately helped by Shannon! I filled out some standard paper work, and was immediately taken back to pick out my jewelry. I was very impressed my the selection they had! I picked the one shown in the picture (which was a brand new piece they got in yesterday!) , so honestly after everything it came out to $100 flat which is honestly such a good deal when you know you're getting a clean, sterile piercing with amazing service. Shannon was very sweet, made me feel very comfortable and talked me through every single little thing she did. My boyfriend tagged along with me and was looking into getting a new tattoo, and talked to Mike who was also very nice! I am definitely going to come back for another piercing to get from here. 10/10 service. :) read more

My ears have been pierced for nearly my entire life, but for the past 10 years, they've been a PITA. Every time I wore earrings, my earlobes ended up irritated and painful within an hour. So, I gave up wearing earrings and figured my holes closed up. I didn't think twice about it, until I realized how soon I was getting married and really wanted to wear earrings. After sharing my story with a dear friend of mine, she told me she had the same experience and needed to get her ears re-pierced. She had a great experience with Grand Legacy Tattoo...and that was enough for me! Off we went! My fiancé and I arrived on a Friday night. Grand Legacy Tattoo is located at the end of a strip mall. Parking is super easy. We were greeted as we parked...isn't timing everything? I told them what I needed and off we went. Super clean and a great vibe! Artwork everywhere, bright lights. Shannon couldn't have been any nicer! She listened to my story and got to work right away. Lo and behold, I didn't need my ears re-pierced. Everything was still open- I just needed titanium earrings. Based on what I told her, it sounded like I developed some kind of allergy to certain metals. I picked out the cutest titanium CZ circular studs. Shannon is a pro at what she does and a delight to chat with! As of this yelp review, I've been wearing my cute little earrings for 12 hours now, even slept in them. No irritation, no inflammation. Super comfortable. Take note: cash only establishment- no credit cards. They accept Venmo, Zelle, etc. My fault for missing ALL the posted signs. Venmo to the rescue! No hesitation recommending Grand Legacy Tattoo to anyone wanting a piercing or tattoo! 5 stars! read more

Grand Legacy Tattoo - New earrings! - Tattoo Near Me - Escondido, California

I got a piercing done here in the beginning of the year. I got a piercing bump after a month or so. I went back to ask my piercer if there was anything I could do to fix it and she said it was a moisture bump and that it would go away. Last month I switched my jewelry to gold and the bump went away. I don't blame her for the reaction I had to the jewelry but she was really rude to me. She had a sense of entitlement and I've told people not to go since read more

I got my navel pierced here in January! I loved the outcome, my healing process was super smooth and had no issues. She was super sweet and explained everything. The atmosphere is super chill and cool. I will definitely come again for my second ear piercings! Thank you :) read more

Grand Legacy Tattoo is hands down the best! I would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing tattoo. I was a walk-in, and Henry drew up my sketch and got me in and out within half an hour without sacrificing any quality. The tattoo turned out even better than I expected.

Lorenzo is a fantastic artist who exceeded my expectations. The quality of his line work was outstanding and the shading he added made the whole work pop. I am coming back to him to add some flare to a tat I already have. The atmosphere is friendly and laid back. The work they have hanging on the walls makes you feel like you are in a museum of pure talent. read more

10/10 all around. I felt incredibly welcome and comfortable with Shannon. She kindly pierced my ears and nipples, and she did an amazingly professional job. I will most certainly be back for some ink! Thank you, Shannon!! She's the GOAT!!! read more

Shannon was the sweetest!!! She pierced my 13 year-old daughter's, third hole, and did a fantastic job. She is such a warm soul, calming, and a total perfectionist. I don't think there is anyone better than Shannon!! Thank you Shannon, my daughter is so happy :) read more

Today I came in as a walk in to get my ears pierced for the first time. Right away I was greeted with three friendly smiles, and a well lit, clean shop. In no time I was helped with consent and safety form as well as making sure I am of valid age even though I'm going on 40. This is always a positive! Both for all our safety and my ego :). After that I was taken in the back and Shannon discussed what I was looking for, pricing, and expectation for healing times. Making sure everything was lined up the way we wanted it was easily done and I was in and out in under 20 mins. It's amazing how everyone was so friendly, and happy given the day before was Friday the 13th and in the tattoo community that is a very busy day. Shannon estimated she did 90 piercings! And to greet me with such enthusiasm and care knowing it was my first time speaks volumes about how well this shop cares for its clientele and each other. I'll be back in 3 months for the follow up, after which I'm sure I'll be getting something else done with them. read more

Shannon was absolutely amazing. I went in to get my rook pierced and she was explaining to me why she is going to pierce the exact spot. She was so kind and you could just tell she loves what she does and is so passionate. I was able to walk right in without an appointment and I was seen immediately. I will definitely be coming back to get pierced by her again soon! read more

We're in town on vacation and the back of my 8 month old's earring fell off so we couldn't keep the earring in place and we didn't want her piercing to close. I messaged them to see if they had any baby earrings or if they had a back piece to the earring. They were quickly to respond and were able to help. Once we got there they were so amazing and gentle with my little one! The vibe is so welcoming. Honestly, I couldn't be happier with their service! Thank you so much for helping me with this! I truly appreciate it! read more

I went here in late February 2024 to get a very simple tattoo, because I'd gotten a tattoo before and the guy was nice. a different man who did my tattoo this time was making me feel very uncomfortable with comments about my appearance and I felt really horrible after leaving. I ended up having to get the tattoo redone completely anyway because he used a big needle and when it healed a lot of the lines had gaps inside of them. I was scared to leave a review because the guy really scared me. i know it's been some time so hopefully the guy isn't working here anymore. read more

This Yelp review was long overdue but here I am now to describe a great experience, The gentleman and his lady were wonderful, Very friendly and caring, I made a call asking if they would have dermal plates for the end of my anti eyebrow and they told me to come by and see what they could do, they tried to call numerous resources to possibly find me an exact fit, when that didnt work they browsed through their collection and found me a temporary fix, I asked how much would they charge me and I was told happy holidays and to not worry about it, Great people and expert level of care and concern! Thank you so much for taking care of me. read more

Stopped in today to (finally) get the tattoo of my mom's handwriting that I've wanted since she passed away. Service was quick, clean, friendly. Mike did my tattoo PERFECTLY. It's wild how exact the handwriting is. I would definitely recommend! I'll be back! Thanks again. read more

I had spontaneously gotten 3 piercings with Shannon. My eyebrow, and my earlobes. Her experience, speed, and professionalism made the process very easy and relaxing. She also has great jewelry on hand for your piercings. She's very detailed with the healing, and treatment process. If you're looking for some piercings, cruise over here. Couldn't have had a better experience. read more

Tristan and Mike are awesome! Very clean and professional. Husband and I got tattoos by them and we will be returning Highly recommend!

IF I COULD GIVE TEN STARS I WOULD! This is for Shannon, their piercer! First of all, the atmosphere of the whole shop is super inviting and relaxed! Everyone greeted me with a smile and Shannon brought me back to her private room which was nice! It's always a plus when you don't have everyone watching you get things done! Her warm and friendly personality made me feel comfortable and at ease! It just felt like I was hanging out with a friend! I wasn't super sure about what I wanted so we played around with some jewelry in different spots to see how it would look...she was never pushy and spent her time with me while we figured it out. I ended up choosing the conch and 2 helix! They have the CUTEST and daintiest jewelry to choose from! I'm used to big chunky studs from a lot of places but she had the smallest little diamonds and cool shapes to choose from. All titanium and they can order gold if you request it! She went to do one of the helix, which I thought had closed cause it's been over 10 years since I've had an earring in it, and it was still open!! She just put the little stud in and saved me from having to do it again! I can't tell you how much I appreciated the HONESTY because she didn't have to do that. She could have just "repierced" it and charged me and I would have never known. Says a lot about her character! I honestly was so impressed with everything and I'm already waiting til I can get my other ear done now!! THANK YOU SHANNON!! read more

Literally everyone and their momma comes here....or at least every young lady and their mom for a piercing. My daughter and I fall into this category along with 4 other sets before and after us. My daughter did research for months reviewing places for her first eye brow piercing. Ollie was recommended by another friend. Place was nice, clean, super friendly, with cool art work every where. Ollie talked us through everything and she ended up getting a straight 16 gauge with heart tip. We felt the price was very reasonable and there was even a promotional discount! Ollie was super cool, I so wished I was the one getting a piercing! Might have to come back for myself next time...maybe, or just be my daughter's plus 1 again for her next one. read more

I haven't gotten a tattoo in quite some time, and wanted something on my left arm, since my right arm has some work.

I got my second earlobes pierced here about a year and a half ago. Today I finally retired it after fighting to heal it all this time. I've gone through bottles and bottles of saline spray. It just never worked. I've gotten some cartilage piercings a few months ago and they're already healed way better than this lobe piercing. Initially, I was hesitant on the placement and thought it was way too far apart from my first piercing. He said that it's a good placement. I should've went with my guts and decide against his suggestion. I guess my fault. However, since it was so much higher than my first piercing, and the anatomy of my ear is smaller. This lobe piercing was like in between cartilage and lobe. I'm guessing this is why it was a struggle to heal. Also I was pierced with a butterfly earring back. Red flag. I was also told to use antibacterial soap to clean the piercing, instead of saline spray. This was also a red flag. I researched online saying how it wasn't helpful to use antibacterial soap. And I experienced first hand on how it dried and hardened the skin around my piercing. Service was friendly, albeit the bad experience with healing. I really wanted the piercing to heal so it's sad that I've finally accepted defeat after a year of trying. :( read more

I am so glad I came here! I got my second holes pierced at a different shop last week and one of my ears was completely botched!

This place is honestly my go to for piercings. As I walked in I was warmly welcomed in by the counter person, and they were super helpful and cheerful. I have visited before and Shannon (the piercer) was so friendly and lovely!! She's great at communication in pricing and overall a wonderful worker (you can tell she loves her job!!) she helped with downsizing my helix. She gave me the run down on how to continue treating the rest of the healing piercings I have and if I had any complications to come and visit her. Wonderful place and hope I can come back soon!! read more

Just went through a first session with Matty Ortiz for a sleeve project I had some ideas for. I've only had one other tattoo so wasn't super familiar with the process. Matty was patient with me, walked me through all of it, and really worked with me to help me understand his interpretation of my ideas and adapting them to look great as a tattoo. After 4 1/2 hours for the first session, I couldn't be happier. Looking forward to finishing this piece next session and then continuing to work on the sleeve in the future. read more
